Neck scarf — an important attribute of the flight attendants' uniform, and not just a beautiful accessory.
This information was reported by Unian, reports URA-Inform.
A scarf around the neck became a mandatory part of the flight attendant uniform back in the late 60s. During this time, a certain association with professionalism and grace has even emerged.
One of the main reasons why flight attendants wear a scarf around their necks is due to tradition and adherence to the strict formal style that is an integral part of the aviation industry.
The scarf serves to improve the appearance, attract the attention of passengers and is an element of the corporate uniform, creating a professional and elegant image. The uniform helps to identify flight attendants as members of the crew.
However, there are more practical reasons for wearing a scarf. This element of the uniform can serve as an additional measure of hygiene and safety, since the scarf can be used for various purposes, such as cleaning surfaces or wiping hands. It can also protect against drafts or cold in the cabin.
In addition, the scarf can be useful in providing first aid or in an emergency. For example, it can be used to immobilize a broken limb to prevent it from moving. The scarf can also be used to apply pressure to a wound and stop bleeding: just fold it in half or in four, place it on the wound and tighten it around the limb or body part.
As a result, the scarf not only decorates the image of the flight attendant, but also performs many useful functions, making it an important part of a professional look.
Recall that earlier it was reported why a cat lies down near the head or at the feet of its owner: what does the pet want to “say” with such behavior.
