I know some detractors of the show like to knock UFO because of
either the purple wigs or the string vests on Skydiver but I can see
a practical side to them. Living in a cramped submarine, you'd want
something cool, lightweight and easy to work in. She was probably
influenced by the lightweight garments astronauts wore in the 60's.
But like a lot of sci fi of the era, the shirt is doomed...the
future is the turtleneck sweater!
