STAR TREK: DS9 “TALURA COSTUME” FROM “BUSINESS AS USUAL”

A costume featured in the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode “Business as Usual”, wherein “Quark” (Armin Shimerman) is given the opportunity to become an arms dealer to pay off all of the debts he has accumulated. This costume is for wear by Charlie Curtis in the role of “Talura”, an alien woman who accompanied one of “Quark's” new arms dealing associates when they visited DS9, and is a long-sleeved, full-length, purple vinyl bodysuit with loose-knit, black crocheted panels across the chest, arms, and waist, a zip down the back, and stirrups for the feet. A sewn in tag reads ‘Deep Space Nine, Charlie Curtis’ and the costumer’s tag incorrectly lists ‘DS9 #516, Telure, Charlie Curtis’ when the character’s name is “Talura”.
