Voyager’s bright blue medical gowns are my favorite Federation medical gowns by far but they are standard issue (and no one looks better in them than Seska). And this purple sheet is just not an outfit. It is the absence of clothing. In this case there is a perfectly reasonable, and in fact wonderful, reason …
Kes is introduced as a hostage. A victim. A bruised waif. A damsel in distress who Neelix tricks Captain Janeway into saving, which sets up the Kazon enemy arc that lasts into season three. Some hours later Janeway destroys the Caretaker’s array (stranding them all in the Delta Quadrant) specifically to save the Ocampa, a …
Fashion-wise, “Far Beyond the Stars” is so good it doesn’t seem fair. I love everything that everyone wears and especially “Darlene”. This dress is a depressingly drab color but I love the lines and those buttons!! I am seriously in love with the buttons. And her hair. I would wear my hair that way every day …
Jadzia goes back to the future in “Past Tense”
Okay, first of all the hair is so cute. So. Cute! Now let’s talk about how much Jadzia’s blue pops in these caps. Everybody else is so drab, which is perfectly in line with the story, but I love that Jadzia stands out. It’s also interesting that she’s dressed in blue and white in an …
I love that the men are wearing less than the women in this swimsuit scene. I don’t love the neon rainbow animal print (though as we see below it is in keeping with what DS9 imagines space faring people to wear on vacation). And the back straps look really uncomfortable – look how tight they …
This is Jadzia’s first appearance not in uniform. And it’s a good one. Variations on the deep rose of the over tunic become her signature color palette – other than science blue, which is referenced in the under tunic. I actually really like the over tunic vest type thing (100% Would Wear) and want to know more …
This is all very very FASHION. It has a serious Camelot vibe to it, which lends a sense of both nobility and tragedy. The bright red is inescapably referential to love (they are quite literally dressed in the clothing equivalent of a box of Valentine candy) but also rage and blood – all of which …
This episode is a good example of why I love the character of Dax. There are so many possibilities for revisiting the symbiont’s previous lives and deciding what components make a person, and a personality. Jadzia is not Curzon, and Curzon was not Klingon, but she has a part to play in this story of …
Gender parity is my favorite thing about Jadzia’s many Klingon looks. The only difference between her exercise wear and Worf’s is the direction of the collar – and that makes them mirror images and bookends, all of which is just wonderful. I love them. I also like that on TNG Worf wore white and here on …
