The general hostess uniform was designed by Montreal designer Michel Robichaud. It consisted of a conservative light blue Fortrel polyester suit, which was worn with a hat and gloves (of course).
A brooch of the Man and His World emblem completed the ensemble.
A rainy-day raincoat was also included as part of the hostesses' uniforms, with a hood that reminds me of Emilio Pucci's Space Bubble helmets...
