STAR TREK: ENT “VISSIAN COSTUME” FROM “COGENITOR”

A costume featured in the Star Trek: Enterprise episode “Cogenitor” where the “Enterprise NX-01” encounters a race called the Vissians who are more than happy to meet new species and have a third gender that are needed for reproduction. The costume is for wear by Jeff Welsh in the role of one of the Vissians that the crew meets; it is a long sleeved, white velvet undershirt with a stitched collar, a long sleeve grayish-colored velveteen jacket with white stitching matching the undershirt, tan piping along the shoulders, a sewn on patch, with alien script, on the cuffs; a zipper down the front with decorative zipper clasp, and Velcro at the waist that attaches to corresponding trousers, reinforced stitching on the knees, and stirrups for the feet. This costume is a good example of how much time and craftsmanship went into the costume of a character, for only one episode, which didn't even have a name. A sewn in tag reads ‘Enterprise, Jeff Wlesh’, and the costumer’s tag reads ‘Enterprise #48 Cogenitor, Vissian, Jeff Welsh’.
