Star Wars Costumes on Display at Discovery Times Square

Discovery Times Square has a fabulous exhibit of “Star Wars” costumes and props, from all seven films, with fascinating behind the scenes details and commentary from the people who created the costumes — and the people who wore them. The costumes for Queen Amidala are especially stunning and there even fabric samples to touch.

And yes, Princess Leia’s harem bikini costume is there, and you can see what Carrie Fisher had to say about wearing it.

When you visit, be sure to save time to play with the display at the end that lets you see yourself as C-3PO or Darth Vader.

These are adorable! Some of them even have light saber heels, and the Chewbacca tribute shoes are furry. And the designer, Irregular Choice, has a sensational Alice in Wonderland (Disney version) selection as well.
