Analysis, part 4 - Yoke and Zipper Trim

The yoke bias trim was more or less identical on the DS9/NEM duty jumpsuits and DS9/NEM "captain jackets" with one exception: on the jumpsuits, the trim at the bottom of the front opening was mitered, while the trim at the bottom of the front opening on the jackets continued downward, sewn to black ⅜" zipper trim:

The jacket's gray neckline/front opening trim segued fluidly into the black ⅜" zipper trim, which effectively obscured the jacket zipper (as opposed to the jumpsuits, which had no zipper trim and closed with an invisible zipper):



The shoulder points themselves were embellished with ⅜" gray wool gabardine bias trim in the same manner as the jacket's neckline and yoke bottom. 

Specifically, by Nemesis standards, the trim was mitered at the bottom corner of the shoulder point, and the bottom corner was on the "center" quilt line - that is, the quilt line that aligned with the shoulder seam.
