Typical Vulcan robes except that the women are wearing very weird hard corsets that would put the Tudors to shame. Apparently thou shalt not distract thyself from logic with the suggestive swell of a woman's bosom...

Clearly this is the "Chesty" period in Vulcan history.
"Just remember what ol' Jack Burton does when the earth quakes, and the poison arrows fall from the sky, and the pillars of Heaven shake. Yeah, Jack Burton just looks that big ol' storm right square in the eye and he says, "Give me your best shot, pal. I can take it."

Women! :roll:
Well yes. I continue to write. And on Fanfiction.Net, for those who want, it is possible to cast a glance at my latest efforts. We arrived to
The Ears of the Elves, chapter Forty-four


And here is the beginning of the whole story.

But, I must say, you could also find something else on Fanfiction.net written by me. If you want.

Personally I think of it more as the "chest of drawers" or "bookshelf" period of Vulcan fashion. You could nail Christmas stockings to that thing!

Any pictures? For fashion. I am not like that!

The only image I can find at TrekCore is the one image where Amanda isn't wearing a chest over her chest -- and it's an image that's not in the movie. There must a deleted scene on the way in the DVD version, because this is from a scene with baby Spock and Sarek which suggests that either Vulcans are really into giant knit items for baby and maternity wear, or Amanda was missing Earth and decided to go crazy knitting on her own: http://movies.trekcore.com/gallery/albu ... ler035.jpg

This is the back of the corset dress. Not much help there: http://movies.trekcore.com/gallery/albu ... ler044.jpg

Please tell me it wasn't in the movie...right? There's no way I could miss that after three viewings, I hope. Odd that they had it in the trailer.

Well, if you don't mind clicking around, go to trekcore.com, then navigate to movies, STXI, screencaps, and look through 'em. Since it's just from the trailer there aren't that many caps up.

TrekCore is a delight to waste time with anyway. Sometimes I just go clicking through, looking for pictures of Trip looking adorable.
