"Star Wars and the Power of Costume" was originally on exhibit at Discovery Times Square in NYC in 2016. Walking through the exhibit we discovered that one of the citizens that inhabited that galaxy far, far, away had quite the couture wardrobe. "Royal" fabrics, exquisite applique, and embroidery are the hallmarks of many of her costumes on display.
