As usual, Virgin presents their uniforms in style.

Ha, Vita-sea beat you to posting that "thread" by about 3 days. Look below a couple of threads. I'd hate to be in a gale with the woman with the cape in front of me!

The last thing I care about on a cruise are the uniforms.  Tell me about the ports, the food, the cabins, the service etc.  If these things are not good than how nice the uniforms are does not matter.

RJB - Uniforms may have no value to you, but from a marketing standpoint, releasing the designs during London Fashion Week gets Virgin lots of additional free exposure. Actually I think it was a pretty smart plan.

O.K. Agree they are getting good publicity, but lets see how they do when the actually sail a ship.  That's when the reviews count.  Hope they are good.

That's why I booked down the road in September by then they should have all the kinks out.

Yep, our cruise is in August.  First to avoid the high fees for those first few months of sailing and to let them figure out all the kinds.

I flew Virgin Atlantic many years ago, and remember not being impressed by the uniforms, but that was nothing compared to having to drink Virgin Cola.

Virgin Atlantic one of our most liked  airlines.  Hoping their cruise line is as good.  Only time will tell.

VA is our favorite, too. Upper Class on a Dreamliner is a wonderful experience! You've got to do it at least once.

Sorry, off topic (at least it was VIrgin related). Now back to uniforms - two thumbs up from us!

Upper class great, but have not had the pleasure of flying the Dreamliner.  Soon I hope.

The dresses are pretty cute. I also like the blue stripe T-shirt & pants. I'm looking forward to seeing better pictures of the entire line of uniforms.

Not sure how the cape will work out on deck...for the wearer or the people nearby.

[Cruiser_1977]

Umm the studded boots?!?!? I'm sure it's high fashion or something. However, doesn't seem realistic.

The uniform announcement said all staff will likely wear red unisex sneakers - that photo is just marketing hype.
