The old (left) and new flight attendant uniforms of Air Koryo

Flight attendants at the North Korean flag carrier Air Koryo have been given spanking new uniforms, which were pictured on the Facebook page of Beijing-based Koryo Tours, which specializes in tours to the isolated country.

The color has changed from socialist red to navy blue and features a deeper neckline and a cap with gold lining. The skirts are shorter and stop above the knees.

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un was reported to have ordered the change so the uniforms "meet the demands of the new century."
