Star Trek TOS Skant uniform

Hi all, I'm wanting to make myself a Star Trak Original Series female uniform, which hilariously is called the 'skant' uniform. Just wondering if any one one CO+K has tried it before and can offer any hints and tips about patterns and material?

This isn't a perfect cosplay version, but it's a great easy one for cheap.

Thanks, I did spot this one on youtube and it's excellent but I'm really wanting the authentic looking uniform, cause I'm a weirdo Happy
I think I'm just going to have to dummy my own pattern, it'll be an adventure if nothing else Happy

Thanks for the links, it is essentially the pattern I sketched out so at least it doesn't seem like such an intimidating project now Happy
As far as I can gather from the Roddenberry site, the reviews for the pattern are pretty dire and everyone that's purchased it has had to alter it a lot so I think I'll save the £20 and try and dummy my own one.
