Prettier in pink: Designer breast cancer awareness neckwear takes flight
Share

Frontline Alaska employees have added a splash of pink to their uniforms this month to honor Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The custom-designed neckwear, dubbed “Ribbons in Flight,” was designed by Alaska’s uniform designer Luly Yang, and the scarves and ties are her first signature piece for the airline.
“Our employees are passionate about breast cancer awareness, and we were excited that Luly could design a custom uniform piece for the cause,” said Sangita Woerner, Alaska’s vice president of marketing.
The pink scarves and ties are adorned with tiny breast-cancer awareness ribbons, and have been worn by customer service agents and flight crew members since the beginning of October for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

“I think it’s beautiful how Alaska has supported this cause – beautiful for its employees, male and female,” says Lisa Rhodes, an Alaska Airlines flight attendant and breast cancer survivor. “It’s a wonderful tribute to our passengers and our loved ones.”
