“We look for fit, function, and design. Being part of the luxury Forbes Five-Star Park Hyatt Aviara Resort, Golf Club & Spa, our goal is to give our spa team a uniform that makes them feel comfortable but also represents a luxury experience. The wellbeing of our spa team is equally important as is the wellbeing of our spa guests. When our colleagues are feeling their best, this will transpire into a personalized luxury guest experience at Aviara Spa. Our uniforms have a timeless design that reflects the simple peace and tranquility that Aviara Spa offers.”—Nicholas Watkins, director of spa, Aviara Spa at Park Hyatt Resort, Golf Club & Spa (Carlsbad, CA)
“When deciding on spa uniforms, our main goal is to keep with our brand pillar of letting nature nurture. We aim to find a uniform that feels natural and simple without being too ornate. We also aim to ensure that there is plenty of movement and stretch in the material to allow for the many different positions at our spa. We also require that the material is very easy to clean and keep clean. Additionally, we try to partner with companies that are inclusive in their sizing and fit. My favorite thing about our current uniforms is that they are simple, with clean lines that seem to flatter all body types while allowing ease of movement.”—Nancy Deaton, spa director, The Lodge at Woodloch Spa (Hawley, PA)
“The top factors in choosing a spa uniform are the following: comfortable fit, professional-looking, stain- and product-resistant, size-inclusive so the entire team can be in the same item, and readily available to order. I love that our uniforms can be easily wiped off if treatment products get on the therapists during treatments and maintains a professional look throughout the day. They are easy to wash and dry quickly and they hold their quality for at-home care.”—Nicole DeRosa, spa director, The Cove at Shore Lodge, An Authentic McCall Spa (ID)
“Form and function are the top factors in choosing spa uniforms. We also considered The Spa at The Inns of Aurora’s modern aesthetics by using simple and clean lines, and also made sure to represent both The Spa at The Inns of Aurora and Rasa Spa brands with logos. Our uniforms fit all body types well, are flattering, and look sleek.”—Cynthia King, spa director, The Spa at The Inns of Aurora (NY)
“When choosing the proper spa uniforms for our therapists, we insisted on comfort, flexibility, and climate-friendly. We looked at many options and decided that we must have a professional-looking uniform that is breathable, cool, quick-dry, and stain-proof. The uniforms we chose to use in Vida Mia Healing Center and Spa ultimately were a combination of many different styles and fabrics married into a hybrid pantsuit that looks professional and clean, and the staff finds them very comfortable.”—Diana Stobo, owner and creator, The Retreat Costa Rica (Atenas)
“We considered a clean and stylish look that complements our spa feel and decor, as well as comfort during services and longevity of wear and tear. Uniforms are an investment and we made sure that our staff loves them. Our uniforms are purpose-driven in their functionality and durability in a wellness environment.”—Dawn Spann, spa director, Spa at Sweetgrass at Wild Dunes (Isle of Palms, SC)
