Sexy Costumes - William Ware Theiss

The sexy gals, guys and aliens of Star Trek boasted an eye popping look like few other TV shows or even films dared to showcase at the time.  From the sexy green of the Orion Slave Girls, to Mudd's Women sexiness and cosmic allure, Trek's attractive folk lit up both the small and silver screen.  One big reason why the sexy came out - especially in the 1960's and in Star Trek: The Next Generation - was because of costume designer William Ware Theiss.  Aside from the writers, producers, make-up artists and actors, Theiss was the man who gave Trek its distinctive, yet classic and future sexy look.


Theiss won an Emmy Award for the first season of ST: TNG, and he helped launched the next level of Gene Roddenberry's futuristic legacy and romp, which would go on for seven syndicated seasons.

The Many Looks Of Counselor Troi - Marina Sirtis

Star Trek is known for many things.  Fans love the starships - the Enterprise, the Defiant, the Excelsior, the USS Voyager.  Collectors love to buy their own prop replicas of the phasers or tricorders or communicators.  And one of the other things highly noted about Star Trek are the uniforms and costumes.  Perhaps no other character - certainly a regular cast member - had as many looks and costumes as the lovely Counselor of NCC-1701-D - Deanna Troi.



She showcased purple dresses and lavender, and blue and something in between.  She wore regulation command uniforms and skirts and skants and all sorts of other things.  One thing's for certain, Counselor Troi kept up with the fashionable side of things during her tour of duty.  Engage & set  phasers on FASHION!
