Cathay Pacific flight stewardesses have told bosses to change their uniforms, amid complaints that they are too sexy.
The union representing cabin crew says that skirts hug their figures too tightly and blouses are too short, exposing stewardesses' midriffs when they bend down.
It says the eye-catching outfits have led to a surge in incidents of sexual harassment at work, which it claims stewardesses face at least once in every 10 flights.
Cathay Pacific, Hong Kong's de factor flag carrier, introduced the latest uniforms for stewardesses three years ago.
Created by fashion designer by Eddie Lau, they consist of tight white logo-print blouses, rose red skirts with two slits at the rear, sheer black stockings and black high heels. Rose red jackets are optional for cooler climes.
The new uniforms had been expected to last for 10 years, but the Cathay Pacific Airways Flight Attendants Union (CPAFAU) are now demanding changes to the design, claiming that it exposes members to increased harassment.
