New landing gear: jumpsuits feature in British Airways uniform revamp

All 30,000 BA staff to be re-kitted in Ozwald Boateng-designed workwear but no leeway to pick and mix gender-specific outfits

British Airways has announced its first change of uniform in almost two decades, with options including a tunic and hijab and jumpsuits for female cabin crew.

The overhaul of the flag carrier's work attire comes after a painstaking five-year rethink by the British fashion designer Ozwald Boateng.
