Star Trek: Enterprise - Season 2 (2002)

Costume Design by:

- Robert Blackman ( notable efforts: The Running Man (1987), Star Trek: The Next Generation (Seasons 3 to 7), Deep Space Nine (1993 - 1999), Voyager (1995 - 2001), Pushing Daisies (2007 - 2009), Mockingbird Lane (2012) )

'Carbon Creek'

In this episode, a crew of Vulcans crashlands on Earth in the 1950s, and all their crew are in brown leather uniforms - the commanding officer's uniform is distinguished by having lighter patches of brown leather, as well as black lining, but all the uniforms have rounded bands fixed to the top of the tunics. Enterprise was, of course, a 2000s scifi show, and as such had to have a ton of outfits consisting of leather and vinyl thanks to the influence of The Matrix. A lot of these outfits I've not really bothered to include (such as the Andorian uniforms) simply due to usually not being interesting designs, but these Vulcan costumes make the cut.

'Precious Cargo'

This episode involved the Enterprise running into two rather shifty alien traders, supposedly carrying a special shipment of cargo - the two aliens are dressed in oddly designed vinyl jackets that have had blocks of material stuck over them in an asymmetrical fashion, slightly resembling the uniforms worn by the aliens in the Voyager episode 'The Raven' but without the silvery lining or coloured materials.

The 'cargo' in question is actually the princess Kaitaama (Padma Lakshmi), who wears a magenta dress with lace and beads around the collar.

'The Catwalk'

In this episode, the Enterprise gets hijacked by a group of aliens during a neutron storm - the alien hijackers wear fairly simple uniforms that are mostly distinguished by the leather straps on the front, as well as officers having similar stripes on the sleeves and trousers.

'Dawn'

In this episode, which was a sort of homage to the film Enemy Mine, Tucker ends up stranded on a hostile planet with an alien pilot, who wears a long sleeved jumpsuit covered with camouflage green fabric, with raised chevron ribbing on the sides and sleeves. This episode was later worn by an alien criminal in the series finale 'These Are The Voyages...'.

A similar designed uniform is worn by a commanding officer of the alien's species, though this is cut into a tunic rather than a jumpsuit - and like the jumpsuit, was also reworn by an alien criminal for 'These Are The Voyages'.

'Cease Fire'

This episode introduced a new uniform for the Andorians, with red vinyl panelling in a triangular shape going down over the chest, with more vinyl strips going over the sleeves too - this uniform would see more use in the Andorians' following appearances in the show.

One notable uniform is worn by Tarah (Suzie Plakson), whose jumpsuit consists of a red top section with pleated shoulders, with a brown coloure vinyl waist and darker coloured leggings as well - thanks to the moody direction, this costume isn't really seen well much at all.

'Judgement'

In this episode, Captain Archer is put on trial by the Klingons, with his defence being led by Kolos (J.G. Hertzler) who wears a wraparound green tunic over a silvery shirt, with studded fabric wrapping around the furred sleeves - one of the more striking Klingon costume designs from this series.

Leading the prosecution against Archer is Orak (John Vickery) who wears a more grey robe with padded shoulders, as well as striped furred sleeves that also have the metallic wristguards as well.

'Horizon'

In this episode, the titular cargo ship is attacked by a pirate vessel, the captain of which wears a gray jacket with decorated fur on the shoulders and arms.

'The Breach'

In this episode, Phlox is made to treat the alien Hudak (Henry Stram) who is prejudiced against his species - Hudak wears a mottled grey tunic with blue lining going over the shoulders and front.

'Cogenitor'

Here the Enterprise encounters the Vissians, an alien species who treats members of their 'third gender' as second-class citizens - the Vissians wear beige tunics with lining over the fronts, as well as white or peach lining on the shoulders.

'Bounty'

This follow-up of sorts to 'Judgement' had Archer being kidnapped by the Tellarite bounty hunter Skalaar (Jordan Lund) who wears an elaborate longcoat with patterned fabric separated by brown leather accents.

His brother Gaavrin (Ed O'Ross) meanwhile is in a blue jumpsuit with grey panelling over the sleeves and shoulders, slightly similar in design to Skalaar's jacket.

'The Expanse'

Barely seen in this episode was a new Vulcan, that consisted of a silvery jacket and trousers - it's only seen on a viewscreen in extremely garbled quality as is, sadly.
