Airline uniform programmes for cabin, ground and lounge teams
Complete crew and ground wardrobes in one brand language across every role, grade, base and season. Developed, sampled and produced in Portugal and Europe.

One brand from the lounge to the aircraft door
An airline uniform is worn through a fourteen-hour duty day, in a galley at altitude and on an apron in January. It has to read as one brand from the lounge to the aircraft door, fit a large and varied crew and still look right when the replacement batch arrives.
That is why an airline uniform is a programme, not an order: a wardrobe matrix of roles, grades, bases and garments, developed together and documented so later runs are produced to the same reference as the first. We work from your brand codes or with your design studio.
One language across every role.
Cabin crew
The most visible role and the hardest brief: long duty days, galley work, cabin temperatures that change by the hour and a silhouette that must stay sharp on landing.
Jacket · Trousers or skirt · Dress · Shirt or blouse · Knit layer · Scarf or tie · Coat
Senior crew and pursers
Same wardrobe language, a visible step up: a different cloth, a contrast detail or an additional piece rather than a separate uniform.
Jacket · Waistcoat · Trousers or skirt · Shirt or blouse · Neckwear · Coat
Ground and customer service
Check-in, gate and transfer desks work standing, reaching and lifting. More ease, more layers and the same colour story as the cabin.
Soft jacket or cardigan · Trousers · Shirt or blouse · Knit polo · Scarf · Lightweight outerwear
Lounge and concierge
Closest to a host’s role in tone, still unmistakably the airline. Often the place for a softer, more tailored expression of the same codes.
Jacket · Dress · Trousers · Shirt or blouse · Fine-gauge knit · Apron or waistcoat where needed
Flight deck
Formal tailoring with rank insignia placement, worn through long sectors and layovers. Apparel only.

Operating conditions
Extended wear
Cloths are selected for crease recovery, comfort through long duty days and repeated laundering, and judged on real samples rather than on paper.
Climate range
A single programme can carry warm-base and cold-base variants: lighter cloths, short sleeves and lightweight layers alongside coats and heavier tailoring.
Fit across a large crew
Crew populations are large and diverse, and the size set is developed with that in mind before production is planned.
Consistency over time
Colour, cloth and construction are specified so a replacement batch is produced to the same reference as the original.
How an airline programme runs
- 01
Brief and wardrobe matrix
We map roles, grades, bases and climates against garments. The matrix becomes the shared document for your brand, operations and procurement teams.
- 02
Development and sampling
Cloth, construction and fit are developed for each garment and decided on real samples. Each stage closes with a clear approval before the next begins.
- 03
Production and rollout
Production is planned by role and base, with the specification documented so later runs are produced to the same reference as the first.
The process, in short
Airline programmes usually carry more grades and bases than other sectors, so the wardrobe matrix is agreed before any cloth is chosen. Seniority is shown inside the same wardrobe rather than with a second uniform, which keeps development and later runs simpler.
Each stage closes with a clear approval before the next begins.
The eight stages, from brief to deliveryQuestions airlines buyers ask.
Can one programme cover cabin, ground and lounge teams?
That is the point of a programme. Each role gets the garments its work requires, and all of them share one colour story, cloth family and construction language, so the brand reads the same at every touchpoint.
How do you handle warm and cold bases in one wardrobe?
The wardrobe matrix carries climate variants of the same garment family, for example a lighter trouser cloth or a short-sleeve shirt for warm bases, so the programme stays coherent without forcing one cloth on every base.
How is seniority shown without a separate uniform?
Through the same wardrobe with one visible change: a different cloth, a contrast detail, a waistcoat or an added piece. Senior crew read as senior at a glance, and the programme stays one set of patterns and specifications.
Can the wardrobe be refreshed piece by piece rather than all at once?
A documented programme allows it. Every garment has its own specification, so one piece can be redeveloped and the rest left as it is, provided the colour story and cloth family are kept.
Do you supply flight-safety or regulated garments?
No. We develop and produce apparel and textile accessories only. Flight-safety equipment, protective garments and regulated technical items are outside the programme, and we say so if part of a brief falls there.
