So combadge linked
this in another thread.
IMHO, replace the belt with the TOS Terran Empire sash and the combadge with a metallic Terran Empire logo on the right side and you have what I think should be the modern female Terran Empire uniform.
For males, it should be that uniform, again with the sash and Metallic TE badge, only sleeveless.
It needn't be entirely gender based. You just have one half-unzipped version and one sleeveless version and maybe a leathery version of the TOS miniskirt with the Mirror Universe thigh-highs.
Those options are what I think the TE should be wearing in all missions.
In turn, keep the existing TOS Mirror uniforms Champions exclusive but offer the "new" mirror uniform (with the metallic version of the TE combadge that can be applied to any uniform) as the C-Store MU uniform.

The sash belt is already ingame - I think. I'm pretty sure I saw the mirror O'Brien wearing it before he beamed away on one of the missions. As for the TE combadge...yes please.
with a slider how long and how much hair there is !!!
THEN we can finally go to Risa!
Thanks I'm eating breakfast and I have milk all over the desk now.
I support this and WANT IT NOW!
Hear that? Jax and I agree.
Make it so! :-)
But seriously, I think some variations on the standard 25th century uniform (like the unzipped version) would be cool and still FAIRLY duty appropriate but by making it the modern MU uniform, you get a license to make it a little extra over the top sexy (both for males and females) and I think the idea of a metallic TE combadge, usable on any existing uniform unlocks, would be awesome.
My suggestion would be to make it a C-Store item and if you really want to kick the accolade system off right and promote signal contacts and exploration, also offer it in game for completing the Mirror Universe mission chain and defeating 5000 Terran Empire opponents or something like that.
Nothing will breathe life into old exploration content and signal contacts than by incentivizing playing through it more. It gives level capped players a new hobby and gets warm bodies in those instances.
Plus, from a marketing perspective, sex sells and the Mirror Universe has always been a bit... sexier.
While we're at it...? I'd suggest if we're looking at mirror uniforms for Federation players, look at adding Klingon-Cardassian Alliance Indendant uniforms as an unlockable/purchase for Klingons with a KCA badge.
Mirror Klingon Uniforms:
The Mirror Reagent's Uniform is a standard KDF uniform with a band across the solar plexis and a KCA badge in the center of the chest.
Intendant's Uniform (Obviously looks great on the female form but I don't see why males can't have the same uniform.
The Mirror Constable's Uniform is a dark, leathery version of the Bajoran militia's uniform with the same KCA logo displayed in the center of the chest. The great thing here is that you can develop the Bajoran militia uniform and this at the same time since, aside from the KCA logo marker, it's the same.
I would pick up all of these for my Klingons.
I dont play a Klingon but that intendants uniform would be great too!
