Trials and Tribble-ations


Recreating uniforms for the DS9 crew to wear for their visit to the Original Series.

Picture The uniforms that we did for The Trouble with Tribbles were fun to do because it became a real technical problem of how to find fabric that no longer exists that will photograph as if it is the same from the original series so that when they drop them in optically, and they�re standing next to Bill Shatner, the suits look the same. I was in a big sweat about it.

Eventually, they [the post production people] just said �we�ll just dial it� - you know, we�ll fix it for you.

We had a couple of old uniforms, so we could actually draft patterns off of them and then make them. I think it was the most fun that the DS9 cast had. They loved it, they loved getting in that 60s stuff and messing around.
