STAR TREK: DS9 “MAJOR KIRA AS BREEN COSTUME” FROM “INDISCRETION”

REFNUM: 4666

Description: The Breen are perhaps the most enigmatic species in Star Trek history, often mentioned but finally revealed in Deep Space Nine. This incredible costume was made for wear by “Major Kira” (Nana Visitor) as a “Breen” in the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode “Indiscretion” in which she helped “Gul Dukat” (Marc Alaimo) rescue his daughter from them. This costume is a “Refrigeration Suit” used by the Breen to maintain a colder temperature than the surrounding area. It is a multi-layered costume affixed in asymmetric patterns with an impressive helmet. It is composed of a sleeveless jumpsuit with heavily padded legs and torso, a pair of incredible knee high boots with pointed toes, a ringed cloth coif for wear around the neck and under the accompanying layered chest armor jacket, a pair of matching gloves, a rust colored belt, sheath and harness attached to a backpack with iridescent cross hatch details, and an impressive two piece helmet. The helmet features an interior size adjusting ring for fitting onto an actor's head, internal wiring and battery placements for a powered green neon tube in the front on the forehead activated by an external switch made functional by on 9volt battery. A second battery powers an additional set of flashing side mounted lights on each side of the helmet. There are magnetic placements for affixing the accompanying facemask which features two screen mesh covered breathing openings and an eye slit adorned with sparkle glazed accents. Additionally, the costume includes a pin that fits through a position on the side of the face mask to further its attachment to the helmet. A second pin is lost to time but any kind of nail or peg (not included) will function in the same way as the missing pin to hold the nose of the helmet in place. The costume is distressed to appear ‘dirty’ and damaged in that there are several visible tears and rips in the fabric leaving openings of exposed ‘armor’. The costume features multiple sewn in tags that read “Deep Space Nine – Nana”. Costume comes complete with costume tag.
