Sherry Jackson's role as the android Andrea in "What Are Little Girls Made Of?" is her sole Star Trek franchise appearance. Nevertheless, fans are still talking about the part to this day, due in no small part to her character's costume. The pants suit Andrea wears throughout the episode is colorful, fashionable, and — it's worth noting — revealing. The series even employed a dedicated expert during her scenes to ensure that the outfit didn't violate TV censorship standards.
One Reddit user recapping the episode specifically mentioned Andrea's outfit as something that stood out in his memory of watching it for the first time as a child. Meanwhile, Gizmodo included it on a list of the "weirdest and sexiest costumes from the original 'Star Trek.'"
Andrea's outfit is so notable, in fact, that it warranted its own question in Jackson's interview with the "Star Trek" website. According to Jackson, her character's look influenced a noteworthy '60s fashion trend. "Hip-huggers weren't around at that time, but apparently after that episode, hip-huggers came into fashion," she said. "I'm sure it was because of 'Star Trek.'"
