Reemerging in the public eye with the recent purchase of Lucas Films by the Disney world, Leia Skywalker cosplay adaptations are resurfacing in the sci-fi community. With Carrie Fisher returning to her most popular role, the star wars franchise is promised to continue with (at minimum) three more movie installments. This has caused fans to flock to newly released teaser tailors and to swoon at the gorgeous actress in her prime. Introduced as the Princess of Alderaan and a member of the imperial Senate, we quickly take Lucas’s hints as to her real place in the star wars universe.
\nFrom the memorable slave Leia costume, which we all have Jabba the Hutt to thank for, to her initial white outfit when captured by Darth Vader in episode IV, Leia is a fan favorite for all ages.
