Fashion 1960s. Such prizeworthy pyjamas. The judges decided that Nabila Jilani
Fashion 1960s. Such prizeworthy pyjamas. The judges decided that Nabila Jilani, the girl in the middle, was the absolute cats pyjamas. And they awarded her the Miss Air Fashion sash on Thursday (9-5-68). Of course, Bails pyjama-style trousers had something to do with it. So did the rest of her beige uniform, designed by Pierre Cardin. Nabila, a 23-year-old hostess with Pakistan International Airlines, won the title at the opening of the Biggin Hill Air Fair in Kent. Second was Austrian Airlines hostess Gerlinda Skalnik, on Nabilas left. Third: Pamela Gehring, of Caledonian Airways, on the right. May 1968 P017525

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the 1960s, we are transported back to a time of fashion and elegance. The image showcases three stunning air hostesses competing in a prestigious beauty contest called Miss Air Fashion. Among them stands Nabila Jilani, the epitome of style and grace, adorned in prizeworthy pyjamas that caught the judges' attention. Nabila's unique ensemble consisted of beige pyjama-style trousers designed by none other than Pierre Cardin himself. This avant-garde choice undoubtedly played a significant role in her victory as the absolute "cat's pyjamas". As she proudly wears her newly awarded Miss Air Fashion sash on Thursday, September 5th, 1968, it is evident that Nabila truly deserved this honor. The competition took place at the opening ceremony of the Biggin Hill Air Fair in Kent. Standing beside Nabila is Gerlinda Skalnik from Austrian Airlines, who secured second place with her own remarkable presence. Completing this trio is Pamela Gehring representing Caledonian Airways and securing third place. Nabila Jilani was not only recognized for her exceptional beauty but also for being an accomplished hostess with Pakistan International Airlines at just 23 years old. This photograph captures a moment frozen in time when fashion met aviation glamour and celebrated women who embodied both sophistication and professionalism.
