This relates to the period 2266 to 2373. 2266 equates to [TNG] Season 3; well into that year the [TNG] Seasons 1 and 2 uniforms were slightly amended. The amended uniforms endure for the rest of [TNG] i.e. up to and including 2370, a year before the [Voyager] series begins. This means that the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-D crew carry on wearing the uniform even though a version new to tv viewers is seen in the next Star Trek series [DS9] and whose first two Seasons are aired at the same time as the last two Seasons of [TNG]; that new version is presented as simply a variant of the existing uniforms system.

For the new [Voyager] series, no changes to the uniform were made and so the USS Voyager crew wear the same uniform variants as seen in the first two Seasons of [DS9]. However, a re-styled Starfleet emblem/combadge is introduced for [ST VII: Generations] and for the [Voyager] series and it is thus adopted by Starfleet from 2371.

The new emblem/combadge appears in [ST VII: Generations], [DS9], [ST VIII: First Contact], [Voyager] of course, [ST IX: Insurrection] and [ST X: Nemesis].

DRESS UNIFORM

 

source ST:M DRESS UNIFORM (COMMAND)
The dress uniform undergoes a few minor modifications during this period. It retains its tailored and highly smart appearance. Instead of the tunic reaching down to the knee, the tunic now finishes at the top of the thigh. In addition, the gold braiding that used to run down one side of the jacket has been removed, so that, apart from subtle edging at the collar, which looks like silver braiding, gold braiding (in quantity at least) is now the reserve of the admiral's uniform and its variants. The Starfleet insignia/combadge is, as ever, worn on the left breast. The style is unisex, but the uniform worn by female personnel looks more tailored to fit the female humanoid form. For instance, if it were not, and did not have slightly material for the front, the front would be shorter than the back as the material has to reach further in order to reach over the breasts (a basic premise if one is a seamstress); indeed, looking closely at Ensign Ballard's dress uniform top shown below, there seems to be an extra seam or long dart either side of breasts that is not present in Tuvok's dress uniform top.

source ST:M DRESS UNIFORM (SECURITY/ENGINEERING/OPERATIONS)
A gold-coloured dress uniform continues to signify personnel from the security or engineering department or the ops officer (such as Ensign Kim). As with the other dress uniforms, in this period the tunic length is not down to the knee but only as far as the top of the thigh. It is worn with the familiar black trousers and black boots that are worn with the standard duty uniform and, again, rank insignia is displayed on the right shoulder, and the Starfleet insignia/combadge is worn on the left breast.

source ST:M DRESS UNIFORM (MEDICAL/SCIENCE)
A blue-coloured dress uniform continues to signify personnel from the medical or science departments. As with the other dress uniforms, in this period the tunic length is not down to the knee but only as far as the top of the thigh. It is worn with the familiar black trousers and black boots that are worn with the standard duty uniform and, again, rank insignia is displayed on the right shoulder, and the Starfleet insignia/combadge is worn on the left breast.

 

 

source ST:M, re-styled combadge added by Janet DRESS UNIFORM (MEDICAL/SCIENCE) (from 2371)
A blue (or blue-green) dress uniform continues to signify personnel from the medical or science divisions. The tunic reaches to the top of the thigh. It is worn with the familiar black trousers and black boots that are worn with the standard duty uniform and, again, rank insignia is displayed on the right shoulder, and the Starfleet insignia/combadge is worn on the left breast. As far as I can recall, dress uniform for these departments is not seen in [Voyager] and therefore this uniform is conjecture only.
