Description

This crew uniform top was custom-designed for background scientists aboard the Union ship in The Orville. Designed by Joseph Porro, the shirt reflects the futuristic and diverse aesthetic of the show’s interstellar setting. The top is constructed from gray spandex and features a high turtleneck collar, long sleeves, and a zip front closure. Distinctive orange and white striped paneling adds visual interest and likely indicates departmental role or species affiliation within the Union fleet. The clean, sleek design supports the show’s balance of classic sci-fi inspiration and modern tailoring, typical of The Orville’s rich costume world.
