Nine groovy retro flight attendant uniforms

flight attendantsGood looks never go out of style, but (thankfully, in some instances) "air hostess" uniforms do. The Los Angeles Times travel section has published this great photo gallery of swinging stews from the "Style in the Aisle" exhibit at Seattle's Museum of Flight.

The exhibit, which runs through May 30th, features flight attendant uniforms from the 1930's through the '70's. Couture designers of the day, including Emilio Pucci, helped put fashion forward in the airline industry. Because no one should ever have to serve pretzels without the sartorial security of Go-go boots and a cape.
