The film Star Wars has paved a way for many franchise products – from books, games, toys and costumes. Almost every Halloween or any costume party, it is almost impossible not to find people who are wearing outfits inspired by the Star Wars characters. But to be sure you will stand out, opt for a Leia costume.

Princess Leia Organa Solo has accomplished many things at a young age. She has been one of the most clever leaders of the Rebel Alliance, New Republic and Galactic Alliance. She was also the youngest member of the Imperial Senate at age 16, and perhaps one of the strongest Royalties in the Star Wars universe. She has a long history of familial twists. She turns out to be the twin sister of Luke Skywalker as revealed in the Return of the Jedi. She will be married to Han Solo later on. And she has become the Crown Princess of Alderaan due to being adopted by King Bail Organa, at the same time she is the Princess of Naboo, her birth motherland. Despite the elaborate characteristics Leia has, the Leia costume is just the opposite.

The most popular outfit she sported was a white robe-like one piece gown with flowing sleeves, high neck collar and hood. And to flaunt her curves, she has a white belt bedazzled with silver pieces or a metallic silver belt. The classic Leia costume will never be complete without the famous cinnamon-bun hairstyle. There are stores that sell this outfit inclusive of this wig. Most of the available costumes are made from polyester and spandex so the material can hug your body in the right places. Finish the look with chunky white boots and a gun blaster. Prices for the costume range from $50 to $60. The gun accessory can be bought at $10 to $12. If your costume does not include a wig, you can buy this piece individually at $16 to $20.

The Leia costume is also available for toddlers, teens and even pets. Babies aged 0 months to 4 years old can be dressed in a soft flannel robe. This usually comes with an attached vinyl belt. And it is very easy to wear as velcros are attached in the back of the garment. It also comes with a headpiece made from foam material which can fit up to 20-inch head size. The same costume components are available for young girls and teens, ages 4 to 14. Their costume costs about $21 to $35. For your cuddly dogs, there is a limited edition Leia jumpsuit piece with attached arms and belt available in some stores. And what would make your best pet all the more adorable is the included headpiece. The package costs about $17.

These costume suggestions are already affordable. But if your budget is really tight and have the time to spend on a costume project, here are some tips to aid you in achieving the Leia look. First of all, master styling your hair with ‘cinnamon buns.’ For those who have long hair, this will be very easy. Part your hair in the middle. Each side can be twisted or braided tightly. Tie the ends with elastic bands so you can have easier time pinning them above your ears. Twist both sides until they look and feel like tight rolls. Fasten each bun with hair pins. If you have short hair, you can borrow a wig. You can also make this headpiece using a thin plastic headband and cloth. Choose the color that will match the color of your hair. Divide the cloth into two and twist each piece until you can roll it up like a Leia hair bun. Glue each bun into the headband.

Look for a long plain white gown, a satin bath robe or any white fabric with long sleeves for the Leia dress. As for the belt, find a wide belt of any color and cover it with white fabric and then glue some chunky fake crystals in it.

Conquer the universe with either Leia costume options with the right Star Wars attitude. Surely minions of all kinds will bow down to your regal appearance.

The Princess Leia costume is always a hit and always sells out every Halloween. Make sure you get in fast to ensure you don’t miss out on this popular costume.
