Virgin Atlantic is
to introduce brand new amenity kits for its Upper Class passengers, specially designed by
bespoke couturier and Savile Row tailor Ozwald Boateng. The new kits, which will be onboard from October 28, will be a
designer wash-bag containing essentials for travel including Ozwald Boating socks and toothbrush and a gift specially designed
by Ozwald.
Sir Richard Branson, Chairman of Virgin Atlantic,
said, “We are delighted to be working with Ozwald Boateng on the new Upper Class amenity kits. I have long admired his work and indeed, my first suit was made not so long ago by this talented
designer! We can now bring his unique style to the sky with a fantastic new amenity kit to complement our award winning Upper
Class Suite.
Ozwald
Boateng, commented, “I am delighted to have designed the new amenity kits for Virgin Atlantic Upper Class. Virgin
Atlantic has blazed a trail with a new standard of stylish air travel – they have successfully brought elements of a luxury five
star hotel to their Upper Class Suite and have created the ultimate flying experience.
“I see Virgin Atlantic as a perfect partner for me as their ethos of style, quality and individuality is so close to my own brand
values.”
Each Upper Class passenger will receive the new kit, an Ozwald Boateng unisex wash bag, which is black with red or purple
herringbone lining, containing: Ozwald Boateng socks and toothbrush, toothpaste, earplugs, Virgin Atlantic eye mask, Virgin
Atlantic pen, comb, Polo mints, Virgin Vie Moisturiser and Lip balm. On
outbound flights a special gift from Ozwald will be a pair of cufflinks and on
inbound flights it will be an Ozwald Boateng hand mirror or key ring. All gifts are presented in
designer gift bags.
