This Is What Five Decades Of Star Trek Fashion Looks Like

To boldly go where no costume has gone before…

Over 254 pages of this book draws from the entire franchise–all twelve films and six TV series–to explore the exotic and memorable costumes from one of the most iconic adventures in entertainment history. The book features a treasure trove of interviews, exclusive photography, rare concept art, and iconic film stills from over five decades of Star Trek.

“You are a beauty,” Apollo told Lt. Palamas, “but like Artemis, the bow arm should be bare.” The lovely creation Apollo had in mind, and (inset) Theiss’s sketch that inspired it.
