too much scifi tv...
can really make you susceptible to questionable fashion statements.
after starting with Firefly and then watching all available episodes of the new Battlestar Galactica, friend sam and i have moved on to Babylon 5.
unlike the first two shows, b5 is full of awesomely flashy and extravagant alien outfits. i keep thinking of Back to the Future...kind of a mesh between the various time periods in the second film. the show was produced primarily in the late 90s, i believe, but you wouldn't be able to tell. it's totally Star Wars as reimagined by a team of stylists with representatives from the Star Trek original series, Jem and the Holograms, Adventures of the Baron Munchausen, Dark Crystal, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, and Dynasty. it's totally fabulous.
but the result being, i seem to have an uncommonly high opinion of this outfit:

i should probably check in and recalibrate my sense of taste after every few episodes.
