Période

April 1966 to April 1968

Canada

Trans Canada Airlines (TCA) was formed by the Canadian National Railways. They launched their first flight on September 1, 1937, between Vancouver and Seattle. Throughout the next 25 years, TCA became Canada's national airline, and on January 1, 1965, TCA changed their name to Air Canada. This uniform was turquoise blue and made from tyrelene and a wool basket weave blend. The jacket had a roll collar, and one button with a deep V-neckline. It was almost hip length with ¾ sleeves. The dress was a sleeveless skimmer with a modified A-line skirt and a deep scoop front and back neckline. It was worn on top of a short sleeve white blouse tied with an ascot. As for the accessories, the uniform was worn with short white gloves, black patent leather shoes and handbag. The uniform was described in Air Canada’s newsletter as having a white straw pillbox-style hat with upturned brim, sitting on the back of the head. However, this hat was replaced by a high crowned, square peaked turquoise hat in 1967. According to one document found in the Air Canada archives, this hast was only worn for May and June, 1967. A modified version, flat with a rounder peak, was worn from July to October in 1967 (and presumably) 1968. In Between Ourselves photos, the square peaked hate appears through 1967 and the modified version is seen throughout 1968. The uniform was designed by Michel Robichaud of Montreal and manufactured by D'Allairds. The jacket and dress belonged to Miss. V. Phipps. The coat belonged to E.M. Gilmour. The straw hat belonged to Miss A. Johnson.
