Trek Dress Review
Since the release of the Star Trek reboot, original uniforms have become available again. I will review TOS dresses as they are found online.
1) RUBIES
Rubies made this dress back in the 1970s. After the 2009 reboot, they dusted off the old pattern and the dresses are easy to find on Ebay and online.
Star Trek TOS Minidress
Construction: 100% polyester. The detail is rather superficial but it is there. It is quite stretchy, so order a size down. The length is about 1.5 inches too long. Interestingly the men’s dress uniforms shirts are the correct length for a minidress.
Here is a Rubies that was shortened:
Rubies TOS yeoman costume, shortened
The costume seems durable and can be used for cosplay.
