What is the dress code for Emirates airline employees?

Dress code Business casual. No flip-flops, no shorts or mini skirts. No sleeves tops. Shoulders must be covered at all times.



The Emirates dress code is one of the most iconic and strictly regulated in the aviation industry, reflecting the airline's "Fly Better" brand image. For female cabin crew, the uniform consists of a chocolate-brown suit (skirt or trousers), a cream-colored blouse, and the world-famous red hat with a white silk veil. Makeup standards are precise: the "Emirates Red" lipstick is a requirement, and nails must be manicured in red, clear, or a French polish. Male crew members wear a sharp chocolate-brown three-piece suit with a pinstriped shirt and a coordinated tie. For ground staff and office employees, the look is equally professional, leaning toward "Business Formal" with a focus on conservative elegance. Beyond the clothes, Emirates maintains strict grooming guidelines, including hair being neatly tied in a bun or "French twist" for women and a clean-shaven or impeccably groomed look for men. These standards are enforced to ensure a consistent, sophisticated global identity across all customer touchpoints.
