Exceptions and Oddities, part 2

A notable exception to the differing gender standards for the trousers was the men's DS9/NEM formal uniform in this auction listing, which was described as having trousers "sewn onto a sleeveless, spandex-like shirt," which sounds an awful like the ladies' trousers:



Note that this doesn't appear to have been a case of a trousers/jacket mismatch, as the trousers don't appear to be black spandex. 

Also note that, oddly, the trim and division-colored piping on the sides doesn't appear to have been sewn into the trousers/shirt seam as it was on Beverly's


It also appears that this "cross-dressing" construction was done at least twice, as we briefly observed a similar effect of Beverly's trousers on Admiral Ross:
