My question is does Garak see this as an improvement over the more typical uniform or is Bashir not allowed to be in Garak’s presence if he insists on wearing that.

I’d have drawn Garak too, were he in Starfleet!   Though I think since Garak despairs of even the regular uniforms, these would warrant a similar opinion.  

I figured I’d draw everyone who is actually in Starfleet in these eventually, partly because Worf and Sisko in these, but also because I’d enjoy the contrast with Kira and Odo.  

…omg, Nog. 

I’d like to avoid making them a joke in and of themselves, though, so maybe a full-cast photo is important eventually. Like, yeah, we can’t avoid finding them odd and humorous as a collective - I couldn’t get over the shape on Bashir when I was drawing them - and Garak finding them worthy of an eyebrow raise is interesting (though so is him finding them rather fetching!) but I’d like to envision that we’ve gotten over ‘hee hee, man in a dress’ in a few hundred years.
