These simple (yet stylish) Star Trek tunics are perfect for [sci-fi loving ladies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/darc-sport). Available in red and blue, these trekkie dresses are guaranteed to impress fans of the series and will likely spark many a Star Trek-related conversation. These tunics are actually missing the Star Trek logo, so to the untrained eye they might just appear to be [shiny futuristic dresses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/low-back-shift-dress), but fans of this galactic series will know better.

These designs were specifically modeled after the J.J. Abrams Star Trek movies, and were made using a combination of spandex and polyester. Much like in the movies the red uniforms symbolize the operations officers and the blue tunics represent science-focused officers. These sleek Star Trek tunics would make great gifts for geeky sci-fi loving girls everywhere. These pop culture dresses could be used as Halloween costumes, or just worn on a daily basis.
