Dr. Bashir Mirror Universe Stunt
Here is one of the rare DS9 mirror universe costumes offered up for auction. This is the stunt version of the Dr. Bashir costume which never surfaced, so this is the only example I am aware of for this costume. It is great because it has the shirt, leather pants, leather belt, and the wonderful tall boots. I think the boots really make the costume stand out well. This piece was worn by Jeff Cadiente, Siddig's stunt man and recurring performer on several of the series. I enjoyed the mirror universe for its creativity, willingness to sacrifice characters, and its continued interaction with the "normal" universe throughout DS9.

a non-commercial collector of Star Trek costumes. I have been collecting since Christie's held the now-historic 40th anniversay auction, and I'm afraid to say, there is no end in sight. I collect on many different levels: love of the character, passion for the design of the costume, and an amazement at the materials and workmanship involved in the creation of such magnificent pieces of "art". I find that I am constantly drawn to the costumes from Star Trek Deep Space Nine since that series holds the most interest for me, but my collection represents most of the various series and films.
