Jess Bush Nurse Christine Chapel Starfleet Medical Jumpsuit from Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

Presented below are some detailed photos of a Jess Bush screen worn Nurse Christine Chapel Starfleet Medical Jumpsuit from the new Star Trek: Strange New Worlds television series, the 8th live action adventure series in the history of the franchise, which is set to premiere on Thursday, May 5, 2022 on Paramount+.  This costume was recently on display in a special Strange New Worlds exhibit at Star Trek: Mission Chicago, a ViacomCBS sponsored fan convention that took place from April 8 - 10, 2022 at the massive McCormick Place center in Chicago, Illinois.   It is an attractive design, and represents a striking departure from the female miniskirt dress patterns seen as the standard duty female uniform in Star Trek: The Original Series, and even the TOS-like Starfleet costumes on display at this Strange New Worlds exhibit for Nurse Chapel's female colleagues Number One and Nyota Uhura.  All of the Starfleet uniforms in Star Trek: Strange New Worlds are the creations of Costume Designers Bernadette Cross and Gersha Phillips in the ST:SNW Costume Department.

Special thanks to my friends and fellow Star Trek fans T.J. Babinetz and Andy Holt, who attended the Star Trek: Mission Chicago convention, for their very gracious permission to display their detailed photography of this costume in this article.    Just click on any of the images below to view an enlarged version ...
