Wizz Air employees are preparing for the departure of their old uniforms and welcoming on board a fresh new look by company clothing specialist Incorporatewear.

Incorporatewear, co-founded by celebrity designer Jeff Banks and others, has secured a three-year contract to design and supply the European airline's attire for pilots and flight deck employees.

More than 400 pilots will be fitted with the new uniform on an 18-month replenishment cycle. The new corporate wardrobe includes suiting, shirts, ties, knitwear and anoraks.

Roll-out will begin from Incorporatewear's Birmingham offices to 15 Wizz Air European bases this month (November), including the UK, Poland, Hungary, Prague and Budapest, Wizz Air's headquarters.

Kelly Bromley, Incorporatewear's account manager, said: "We're extremely excited about this new contract.

"Wizz Air is a colourful airline with pinks and purples in its branding, and the new wardrobe design will build on that. The Wizz Air uniform reflects the progress the company is making in the airline industry."

The main uniform will consist of white pilots shirts, navy knitwear and pink ties with navy suiting manufactured using polywool bionic fabric. 

A super-warm winter coat will also be launched for pilots arriving at colder destinations.
