The Flight Attendant's Shoe by Australian scholar Prudence Black is a stylish, illustrated dive into the evolution of cabin-crew fashion, from 1930s silk stockings to today's runway-worthy uniforms. This 2011 paperback blends aviation history, biography, and design studies, making it a must-read for lovers of flight attendant fashion, travel culture, and mid-century style.

Clean, tight, and unmarked, this gently used copy shows only light cover scuffing and a tiny edge spot—no writing, dog-ears, or smoke exposure. Generous photographs and uniform details remain crisp, perfect for browsing or research.

Ideal for young adults, collectors, or anyone fascinated by the golden age of air travel, The Flight Attendant's Shoe offers a unique window into the clothes that once defined jet-set glamour.
