Star Trek Costumes: Five Decades of Fashion from the Final Frontier
Although it’s more of a “costume appreciation” book for a general audience than the in-depth costume analyses and sewing tutorials here on the STCG, it’s still an enjoyable, informative read with some amazing photos.Â

Every bar of gold-pressed latinum helps me produce more sewing/costuming resources like these, for everyone interested in Star Trek costumes. 🙂

Hi, I saw this and thought you might be interested. It's not my auction and I can't vouch for it.

That is neat - thanks for thinking of me!
Do you plan to draft tos era uniform patterns? or do you only do patterns from screen used uniforms you get your hands on?
Could you create a pattern for Kes (Voyager) ?
I appreciate the interest, but my current pattern queue is almost exclusively uniforms (Starfleet and eventually Bajorans). The only projects I have planned outside of those are perhaps some Ferengi patterns, particularly for one or more of Quark's costumes.
Any chance you could do analysis on the Klingon uniforms of the TOS movie or TNG eras?
Those are outside my current expertise, but perhaps if an opportunity to study one or more screen-used Klingon costumes presents itself ...?
Hi I was wondering if you know any dye formulas for the TNG Teal?
I've been developing dye recipes for some time now (including several TNG teal recipes) and plan to post them on my STCG soon! 🙂

I am ordering a "PATTERN" of the later year-back zipper. It is intended as a cosplay uniform for my wife. We intend to have it made in the Security division colors (Mustard/black) with matching piping on collar and pant bottoms.
Thank you for your pattern order! I hope your cosplay uniform project turns out great. 🙂

Hi, thank you for making this valuable resource! I was wondering when the voyager pattern will be available? I read through your costuming document awhile back and was going to make it for Halloween this year. Would slightly modifying your TNG costume pattern (i.e. remove collar, make the yoke division color and make the body black) work? LLAP!
I was hoping to get to those by the end of this year, but it's currently looking like it'll be early next year. I have a lot awesome new stuff in the queue, but as you may have noticed, it's slow going. I've had the opportunity to study about a dozen screen-used VOY-style uniforms since my original resources and am looking forward to posting all about them ASAP!
(And unfortunately no, the TNG-era and DS9/VOY-era uniforms are entirely different patterns.)
Thank you for the interest! I suggest subscribing to my "Costume Guide" e-mail newsletter for updates. 🙂
