For some reason, I find that I always enjoy her appearances on the show despite Ziyal being portrayed by three different actresses. I felt like all three brought something slightly different to the role and I didn't favor any one of them. This particular dress is the non-distressed version of the her last wardrobe appearance on the show just prior to her untimely demise. It had multiple uses on the show in such episodes as "Return to Grace" and "Sacrifice of Angels" and was worn both by Melanie Smith and Tracy Middendorf. This trilogy of dresses now in my possession along with my Garak trio really help to strengthen the Cardassian base of the collection.
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.
