Princess Leia’s famous gold bikini worn by the late Carrie Fisher in Star Wars has sold at auction for $175,000 (£136,000, A$266,000).
The costume, made famous from the 1983 film Return of the Jedi when Fisher’s character wore it while chained to Jabba the Hutt’s throne, was bought at a sale by Heritage Auctions on Friday in the US.
The seven-piece ensemble, which includes a bikini brassiere, bikini plates, hip rings, an armlet and bracelet, was designed by the late Richard Miller, the chief sculptor for Industrial Light & Magic, the visual effects company founded by Star Wars creator George Lucas.
That seems shockingly low, to be honest.
Would’ve been more, but it’s been washed (sorry)
The guy who bought it:
Excellent. Now I need a girlfriend!
One of the most iconic bikinis in existence, 175k was a steal
That is so getting resold at much higher price.
That will be hard to manage considering the future caked up jizz. And by future I mean next week.
