Written by Paula M. Block and Terry J. Erdmann, readers will receive an “in-depth look at the innovative costume designs at the heart of the Trek universe, spanning from the original series up through and including the latest big-screen adventures.”

The book features an introduction by Robert Blackman, an Emmy Award winning costumer designer well-familiar to Trek fans.

Costumes from the original series through the most recent Trek movies will be featured. The book is “filled with exclusive photography, stills from the saga, rare concept art, and other striking visuals, Star Trek: Costumes also focuses on the talented individuals who have brought the Star Trek universe to life, including original costume designer William Ware Theiss and his successors, Robert Fletcher, Robert Blackman, and, most recently, Michael Kaplan.

“Featuring extensive information on the creation of each featured costume, with insight and anecdotes from interviewees including Blackman, Kaplan, J.J. Abrams, LeVar Burton, Jonathan Frakes and Ronald D. Moore, this book is a comprehensive and captivating celebration of the incredible artistry that has made Star Trek‘s costumes as innovative and imaginative as its futuristic technologies.”
