Jacek Poremba's 'Chewbacca' editorial is arresting--albeit a bit weird. This photo set imagines the furry 'Star Wars' character as a female fashion model, an unusual combination that makes for an eye-popping editorial.

My favorite image in Jacek Poremba's 'Chewbacca' series is the one in which the model poses with the equally [furry brown dog](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barkbox-collection). Which is your favorite? Let us know below.

**Implications** - Fashion photographers are continually twisting the traditional aesthetics of movies and other pop culture iconography. This photo shoot features a fashionable twist on [furry Star Wars characters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/columbia-endor-collection). Companies can take advantage of this opportunity by infusing their products and promotional ad campaigns with a dash of pop culture.
