These chic designs combine a classically [form-fitting dress](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-shirt-dress-collection) with the influence of sci-fi favorite Star Wars. The style of the dresses resemble cuts from the 1960s and are totally sophisticated. Baker then added prints of iconic Star Wars characters on top. The beige dress is adorned with Han Solo, Darth Vader and Yoda along with some other characters. The black and white print dress, on the other hand, is patterned with Darth Vader. These outfits are surprisingly elegant, and any girlie fan of the film is sure to love them. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.0/10 - Popularity: 36% | Activity: 46% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Sci-fi-inspired Fashion:** Designing fashion with Sci-Fi inspirations creates new opportunities for artist entrepreneurs. - **Nerdy Fashion:** Combining pop culture with fashion creates a new niche market for apparel makers and sellers. - **Elegant Geek Fashion:** Infusing sophistication and elegance with geek culture creates fashion statements that cater to a new market segment. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** Fashion designers, tailors, and retailers can look into creating their own line of Star Wars inspired clothing and accessories. - **Geek Merchandising:** Nerdy pop culture merchandisers can expand their product offerings by venturing into fashion items with sci-fi themes. - **Online Marketplaces:** E-commerce platforms like Etsy provide opportunities for independent artists to reach a wider audience with their unique designs. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Dark Sci-Fi Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/darc-sport.md) - [Winter-Ready Sci-Fi Fashions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-wars-x-columbia-collection.md) - [Subtly Sci-Fi Watch Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-wars-x-citizen-rebel-starfighter-boxed-set.md) - [Desert Planet Sci-Fi Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sands-of-tatooine-collection.md) - [Sci-Fi-Inspired Classical Posters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sen-donnan.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-Themed Donut Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pinkbox-doughnuts-star-wars-day.md) - [Sci-Fi Series Tech Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casetify-star-wars-day.md)
