Outfitting Rebel Scum in Style
Mixing street style with Star Wars imagery, noted fashion designer Marc Ecko is stepping out of the galaxy far far away with a line of Star Wars clothing worthy of any fashion conscious bounty hunter.
Fans will be scrambling for Ecko's next clothing line which honours the Star Wars saga and its characters with a limited-edition collection of Star Wars inspired clothing created with full permission from Lucasfilm Ltd. This the first time a major designer has teamed up with Lucasfilm.

| Combining classic Star Wars images, art and characters with the style and artistic flair of street culture, the collection will feature such pieces as a premium "Fett for Real" sweatshirt, a stone Yoda graphic tee and the "Ultimate Vader" hoodie, among various other items. Many of the items are beaded, embroidered or feature extra enhancements that add to their fashion flair. Ecko also designed an authentic-style Hoth Parka as seen worn by Han Solo in The Empire Strikes Back. |

The saga captured Ecko's imagination, and that of an entire generation of upcoming artists, filmmakers, and fashion designers right from the beginning -
"It is no secret that I am a fanboy of all things Star Wars and of George Lucas," Ecko says. "So when the opportunity to create this collection arose, I jumped on it like Boba on his bounty".
