Cabin Crew Uniform Sketches (2002)

Here are some original cabin crew uniform drawings by Lazarus Shuib, one of our cabin crew. Having studied fashion design in Paris, he was given the opportunity to design the iconic red AirAsia cabin crew uniform when the first prototype by another designer wasn’t approved by the rest of the crew. Note the graceful curves and detailing of the uniform, part of which was inspired by the Baju Kebaya. The following pages are archived from Lazarus’ personal sketchbook, in which he collected his concepts, photos, and cutouts from the early days.
