Leia’s Iconic Ensemble: Carrie Fisher in ‘Star Wars: Return of the Jedi’
Carrie Fisher often remembered for her daring slave girl outfit in “Star Wars: Return of the Jedi,” where she wore a metal bikini molded to her body while portraying Princess Leia. Designed by Aggie Guerard Rodgers, the costume drew inspiration from Frank Frazetta’s artwork and emphasized the female form.
Despite its iconic status, Fisher herself expressed discomfort with the revealing attire, humorously remarking that the iron bikini felt like something reserved for the depths of hell. Her candid reflections shed light on the complexities of costume design and its impact on actors’ experiences.
