What do the uniforms look like for the new series?

On Enterprise it moves closer to our present time, so we�re actually using a lot of natural fibre and a lot of very obvious openings, things we�ve never been able to do before. All closures had been secret, essentially, on Star Fleet, how do they get into that thing? Well, your guess is as good as mine, but now, we�ve got zippers, buttons, snaps, you know, it�s a whole new world for me.

The uniforms are cotton twill, they�re blue, not black and grey. It�s much more like a NASA flight suit than it is a Star Fleet uniform that we were familiar with. They really have an amazing sense of future - vital, heroic, much more casual.

The overused world - a sexiness to them, which does not necessarily mean, physical sex, but a kind of thing � a sensual quality in the ease in which they appear to be. They�re as uncomfortable as any of the other uniforms I have ever done. But because they can�t be loose and sloppy, they have to be close to the body. But it�s just how it is. It�s all about image, it�s not about, necessarily, the reality of the picture.

We have a female Vulcan character, and she has her away jackets made of some new fibre. The Sulaban definitely are made of stuff that�s not even manufactured on the market, it�s very weirdly organic and yet terribly slightly distastefully technically synthetic, it�s weird. I like it.
