The Klingon costumes have changed before, and they will again for Enterprise.

The Klingons were not of my origin, they were originated by Robert Fletcher for the Star Trek movies. Ee still use those original costumes, thirty years later,they were so brilliantly constructed and conceived.

For the new series we are going back four hundred years in time, so we have these more kind of Nordic, kind of Vikingesque, if you will, Klingons - Fur and leather and just chewed up stuff.

What I had to do was to take, as I�ve done with the uniforms, which is to take the existing imagery and then flip backwards and just pull away. So the silhouette remains the same. There are certain things that remain the same. The use of metal, the use of fur, the use of leather, but it�s just in a more primitive way.

During the series, I took those Klingon images and made civilian ones, which we had never seen, but it was really based on that, initial concept of Bob Fletcher�s.
