Air New Zealand's new uniforms are already under fire, with one flight attendant saying the candyfloss pink colour scheme makes them look like "drag queens".
The national carrier revealed the new uniforms, being introduced next year at the same time as a new aircraft fleet, which have been designed by Trelise Cooper, the Dominion Post reported.
Airline spokesman Ed Sims described it as "contemporary" but a flight attendant said it was more like the look used on the airline's annual flight to the Sydney Mardi Gras.
"The flight attendants look like drag queens off the Air New Zealand 'pink' flight," the attendant said.
"I haven't worn that colour since I was five."
The uniform would suit a range of body shapes and work requirements but would show up spilt food and drinks, she said.
