# Daring Comic Con Costumes This Hot Chewbacca Costume Proves That Dressing Up isn't Only for Kids By Deborah Kim | Published 2011-07-29 | Naughty Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chewbacca-cosplay References: [obviouswinner](http://www.obviouswinner.com/obvwin/2011/7/22/lady-chewbacca-cosplay-makes-my-wookiee-howl.html) & [flickr](http://www.flickr.com/photos/12308893@N07/sets/72157627245710304/with/5963218069/) Nerds around the world were rejoicing everywhere when pictures of this sexy Chewbacca costume hit the Internet. This costume is so oxymoronic, I didn't think it was possible. Who would have ever imagined a 100-year-old, 112 Kg Wookie could ever be considered sexy? There have been many interpretations of [Leia's metal bikini](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-wars-x-citizen-rebel-starfighter-boxed-set), but never did I imagine that Chewbacca would be the source of inspiration for such an [exciting little outfit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auntie-annes-and-cinnabon-costumes). The woman wearing the innovating costume certainly deserves a Medal of Yavin for her creativity. Of course, this sexy Chewbacca costume leaves little to the imagination, but is accurate enough for Star Wars fans to collectively yell a Wookie Howl. Now the true challenge is to see if they can make a sexy Jabba the Hut outfit. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.5/10 - Popularity: 69% | Activity: 89% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Naughty](https://www.trendhunter.com/naughty) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Sexy Cosplay:** There is a growing trend of adults embracing sexy and unconventional costumes at events like Comic Con, creating opportunities for innovative and daring designs. - **Unconventional Inspirations:** Costumes inspired by unexpected characters like Chewbacca challenge traditional notions of what is considered attractive, opening up potential for disruptive designs. - **Nerdy Creativity:** The emergence of nerds embracing creativity and pushing the boundaries of traditional costumes at events like Comic Con presents opportunities for unique and imaginative innovations. ### Where This Applies - **Cosplay:** The cosplay industry should explore bold and unconventional designs inspired by unexpected characters like Chewbacca to cater to the growing demand for unique and imaginative costumes. - **Fashion:** The fashion industry can introduce unconventional and avant-garde designs inspired by nerdy culture, leveraging the trend of adults embracing sexy and daring costumes. - **Event Planning:** Event planning professionals can tap into the trend of adults embracing unconventional costumes by offering specialized services and creating immersive experiences that cater to this growing market. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Highly Detailed Sci-Fi Costumes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stormtrooper-kit.md) - [Winter-Ready Sci-Fi Fashions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-wars-x-columbia-collection.md) - [Sci-Fi Franchise-Inspired Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-wars-collection-2.md) - [Dark Sci-Fi Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/darc-sport.md) - [Insulated Sci-Fi Garments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/columbia-x-star-wars-skywalker-pilot-ski-collection.md) - [Hand-Knit Sci-Fi Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handknit-scifi-sculpture.md) - [Sci-Fi Gaming Chair Covers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/secretlab-star-wars.md) - [Candy Bowl Costumes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trickortreatable-costume.md) - [Sci-Fi Bath Soaps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-wars-bath-soap.md)
