1961
Male agent uniform jacket changes from double-breasted to single-breasted style in midnight blue. Women continue to wear navy blue skirt and jacket until 1965.
1976
Women wear uniform designed by Pat Ashley for Omniform, who also created Delta flight attendant uniforms worn 1975-1978, to “posture Delta personnel as a professional and contemporary work force. To bring a new look to Delta, and reinforce a corporate identity that outstanding in the airline industry.” Employee input came from a nine-member uniform advisory committee, which asked for a uniform “easy to work in; tailored but feminine.” Uniform required for airport and city ticket office agents and optional wear by reservation agents, stations clerical staff and teletype/radio operators.
This was Delta’s first female ACS uniform with mix-and-match pieces and accessories. The basic pieces – a knit polyester blazer jacket, a shirt-style belted jacket, slightly flared pants, vest, tunic, skirt, dress and jumper – came in navy blue, camel and peach. The striped cardigan sweater set came in navy blue or ecru, with option to have “DELTA” across the front of the sweater vest. Blouses, turtleneck sweaters and scarves came in light blue, light peach, ecru and a “Delta Cities” pattern.
