[Ebook] Reading Dressing a Galaxy: The Costumes of Star Wars FOR ANY DEVICE

Book Description
While the Star Wars saga is famous for its elaborate sets and for revolutionary visual effects, it
also features some of the most unique and ornate costumes in modern film. In this exquisite
volume, the intricate and beautiful fashions that have appeared in all six Star Wars films are on
display-from military gear to royal gowns and the iconic garbs of Obi-Wan Kenobi and Darth
Vader. Every costume is brilliantly displayed in intimate detail, from preproduction sketches to
the final creations. Actors, including Natalie Portman and Samuel L. Jackson, provide
commentary on their experiences during principal photography, while writer-director George
Lucas and producer Rick McCallum contribute their thoughts on this exploration of Star Wars
costume design. Accompanied by an exhibition at the The Fashion Institute of Design &
Merchandising (FIDM) Museum & Galleries at FIDM in Los Angeles, this unique visual treat is a
must-have for any Star Wars fan. An additional limited-edition run of this book will be released
with lavish gatefolds, fabric swatches, and a cast replica of a Wookiee belt-buckle, sure to be the
ultimate Star Wars collectible.
