Hans Solo, the bad boy and heartthrob from the [Star Wars Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cocacola-x-star-wars), makes an appearance on the Solo Swimsuit by [Black Milk](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vintage-styles). Representing the trickster to Luke Skywalker's sweet persona, Hans Solo has cemented his place in pop culture. With the introduction of this garment, he has since moved into the world of [beachwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dandy-del-mar).

Often referred to as "the most famous scoundrel in pop culture," ladies now have the option of infusing some nerd sci-culture into their morning dip in the pool. Designed by James Lillis, this swimwear features the gorgeous Harrison Ford on the torso section of the suit to draw attention to the most flattering part of the body.

People may be staring at your amazing body or they could be staring at the Solo Swimsuit by Black Milk. It is Harrison Ford after all.
