A Captain Jean-Luc Picard duty uniform-style costume designed for Patrick Stewart for use in Star Trek : Generations (Paramount, 1994), though this particular design was ultimately not used. This costume is similar to the duty uniform style of costume worn at the start of the seventh feature-length Star Trek film and the first starring the cast of Star Trek : The Next Generation (Paramount Television, 1987-1994) following the end of that successful series run. With the film, the crew of the Enterprise transitionsr from wearing the familiar overall style of duty uniform seem in the television series to the style seen in use in the Star Trek : Deep Space Nine series. At the start, at least some of the crew has the TNG television-era style, with black shoulders and color below designating their particular branch of service, Picard’s red indicating command and helm. By the end of the film, most of the crew is seen wearing the DS9 style of jumpsuit uniform that is all black, with the color designation on the shoulders. This prototype costume illustrates one possible direction in which production might have gone with a change for the big-screen outing. It appears to have gone fairly far into the process, as the costume tag inside the tunic reads “STAR TREK VII, PATRICK STEWART.” More, the officially licensed action figure produced by Playmates for the release of the film shows the Captain Picard action figure wearing this same style of costume. An interesting and rare look
