The feng shui is completely off. The Discovery is going to have nothing but bad luck!
Spoilers Ah, the NEW uniforms...!
- Thread starter Blue Squadron
- Start date
I've only just noticed that the shirts are asymmetrical on the bottom which almost makes them look like as if they were misbuttoned. I've never had a problem with the collars and the zippers on the blues (I'm in a minority with that, I know), but this really bugs me for some reason.
So now we went from blue
To grey
Cool
That black leather strip on the blues is kinda similar to the colored stripe they put on the standard SF grays.
Black trousers would look great on them. I tried the black collars, but they didn't really add anything to it.
EDIT:
Of course they could go really "old school" in their coloring scheme

My thing just how it makes them blend in to the set. I think the contrast works on the more bright and sterile-looking sets over at HQ, but the darker coloring of the Discovery sets has significantly less of that contrast, which just doesn’t give the uniforms enough pop.
But, hey, if there’s one thing we’ve seen in Starfleet uniform design, it’s that if you don’t like a uniform design, wait about five episodes, a new one will be introduced, no problem.

Yeah I had a go at the collars too and while I thought it might make the rank insignia more legible, it doesn't really halp matters.Black trousers would look great on them. I tried the black collars, but they didn't really add anything to it.

But while we're here I thought I'd take a quick and dirty run at seeing how the more Bajoran inspired cut might look like...
...it kinda works...?
Not sure about the boots though.
Hope not! Even if they ax the command division for any junior officers, what does the first officer/XO wear?
Their division color, like Spock.
That only works if, like Spock, they are part of operations or science. Riker and Chakotay were both command-track officers.
So, they are either one. Operations could encompass many different duties.
I reckon Into Darkness style hats would look awesome with these unis.
Sooo, going back a bit, it looks like the uniform of operations officer Tal does not match the current 3189 style. I thought it did, but the department stripe is shaped differently.

The collar insignia match does of the Vulcan officer at the holographic Kaminar induction ceremony. Perhaps all the officers in attendance were captains, and junior officer Tal was a contemporary.
If the assume the USS Relativity uniform (https://memory-beta.fandom.com/wiki/Wells_uniform) was worn until the end of the 29th century, the gray style may have become en vogue in the 30th or 31st century. Perhaps Senna Tal's uniform is part of that generation, and the whole set is the direct predecessor of Vance-era uni.

That should really be made clear in all of their posts. Perhaps mods should get separate accounts, like Possum and PossumMOD

Yeah, that's just the over-the-top rank markings for Captain in 3189...!
Collar patch, both shoulders and also on the badge (just in case you missed it...)
The other captains in previous episodes were all wearing the same.
Looks like a shot that got cut. I really don't understand why Tilly is in Sciences blue though -- she was originally in operations/services copper and then moved to command but there clearly was a conscious decision by someone to change her department -- and who knows what her actual role is at this point. It's actually very odd that they've only got Burnham in red in that shot. They could have taken the opportunity to at least put Detmer and into red as the helm officer. I suspect things will change for next season. I also think the costumes are too bland and we'll see some adjustments to the design for main cast use. Likely we'll see some other variants too.
I'm still annoyed they moved Saru aside. I totally get why the character might wish to take some time to return to Kaminar and help Su'Kal adjust but it seems pretty mean to cut him out of that last scene. Would have been good to see Saru ing Captain's uniform as well, even if just boarding a shuttle...
well, since Burnham is now captain Discovery is now missing a chief science officer...
