* One of the best examples of it at work is Theiss' own creation in the ''Star Trek'' episode "What Are Little Girls Made Of?" In that episode, a female android named [https://web.archive.org/web/20130414225732/http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/d/d9/Star_Trek_-_What_Are_Little_Girls_Made_Of.jpg Andrea] has a costume the upper portion of which is merely two crossing strips of material. Off the set, public modeled displays of this costume ''never'' failed to get a dramatically appreciative reception from at least the men.
** In William Shatner's ''Get A Life'', he tells a story about how Gene Roddenberry talked that same outfit into a fashion show at a Sci-Fi con. According to one of the people there, the model apparently had to spend the evening [[That Came Out Wrong|"beating men off with a stick"]]. Notable is the fact that Star Trek ''hadn't even aired yet''.
** According to Herb Solow and Robert Justman's book on ''Star Trek,'' William Shatner couldn't stop hitting on Sherry Jackson, the actress playing Andrea, once he saw her in the outfit. Further, the first public modeled display of the costume was in Desilu Studios' lunch room, where Ms. Jackson entered in said outfit—according to Herb, forks stopped midway to people's mouths.
