It took an authoritarian outsider to get Deanna into a uniform, but she kept it up after the dictatorial Jellico left. I love that Deanna doesn’t always wear a uniform on duty. It’s an interesting character choice both for Deanna and for Picard. But it did create the illusion that she did not have as …
Confession: I love the mindress plus boots. It’s ABSURD in context – she looks like she’s wearing the “Sexy Halloween” version of the standard uniform. And here she honestly looks like Picard’s teenage daughter. Plus it is a ridiculously mini minidress. The hem barely touches the chair! How is this practical? For a uniform??? Here …
Real talk: who is in charge of designing dress uniforms for Starfleet? The series design (above) is basically the standard uniform as a tunic with added gold piping so I guess I understand why TPTB decided that it should be More Dressy when we see it on the big screen, but the film design (below) …
There is really nothing to be said about either of these looks. They both seem to be standard issue mass produced hospital wear.
What. Even. The context is that Troi (and the rest of the crew) are devolving, and thus Deanna is sensitive to light and ends up in a bathtub (this episode is bizarro and there is little to no science in its fiction) and I guess this is her “comfort wear” but I honestly want to …
Thanks to the holodeck and various alien shenanigans, Deanna (and the rest of the crew) got to wear fun costume and period clothes a few times. Here, Q transforms the bridge crew into Robin Hood and his Merry Men. No one pulls it off quite as well as Jean-Luc’s Robin but I really like Deanna …
To infiltrate Mintakan society Troi had to dress like a peasant (above) and she only barely pulls it off. She’s too aristocratic – which gives her a bit of an edge in her Romulan guise (below). Problem with Romulans is their uniforms are THE WORST. Inexplicably, Troi carries this off. She looks surprisingly good here…as …
These two nighties are very similar and have very similar unfortunate context (in both instances she is mind-raped). The pink is in her signature color palette and silhouette, and I like the rope piping. And love the shiny ribbon on her also pink blanket. The white is worn for her bridal night, and gets points …
Anytime Deanna and Beverly interact is a win and part of me adores these space Barbie togs but also Ow! I prefer her Klingon martial arts wear. They look comfortable, easy. They’re not gendered — can you imagine Worf, Riker, or Geordi in the Barbie togs? And she has that adorable kicky little hair bow! …
These represent the lack of clothing more than a ‘look’. In the first two caps, Deanna chooses to be naked, but in the next two the Ferengi choose for her and her mother. Ew! This is a fantasy representation of Deanna created in the Holodeck by Lt. Reginald Barclay which is all kinds of creepy. …
