Dressing a Galaxy: The Costumes of Star Wars Exhibit
Today's site comes from the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising in
California, which has mounted a presentation to showcase the sweep of designs
from
the the Star Wars universe. From the raffish charm of Han Solo's casual gear to
the
unforgettable designs worn by Princess Leia, Gentle Subscribers will find the
full
panoply of Star Wars costumes.
"The Star Wars saga has changed popular culture forever. The spirit of
imagination
it represents - that ability to dream big - is something we believe in here at
FIDM. ... A collection of more than 100 costumes, accessories, and props from
all
six films in the Star Wars saga were on display, including those from the latest
chapter, Episode III Revenge of the Sith." - from the website
A slideshow presentation of the exhibit displays the museum's collection of
costumes. From Wookies to bounty hunters, the exhibit highlights the range of
characters and their distinctive garments and appearance. Photos of some of the
fantastic "heads" designed for the films are also on display. In addition, a
selection of Star Wars desk wallpapers is available for free download.
