Delta Flight Attendants Claim Uniforms Causing Headaches and Rashes in Lawsuit

Two Delta Air Lines flight attendants are alleging that wearing their uniforms causes skin rashes, headaches, fatigue and other issues in a proposed class-action lawsuit filed Wednesday. The “Passport Plum” uniforms were made by Lands’ End, a global fashion retailer, and issued to 64,000 employees in May 2018, according to the lawsuit. Land’s End is named as a defendant in the lawsuit; Delta is not. The suit seeks more than $5 million in damages and was filed in U.S. District Court in the Southern District of New York by flight attendants Gwyneth Gilbert and Monica DeCrescentis. Gilbert lives in Sandy Springs, Georgia, and alleges in the lawsuit that she experienced rashes and skin irritations from wearing the uniforms, which consisted of two dresses, a pantsuit, and a sweater set.
