Marc Ecko Creates New Star Wars Collection

For a time it was really cool to like Star Wars, then it was seriously geeky to even know what it was about. But now, it looks like Star Wars’ street cred has returned, with a little help from super designer Marc Ecko.

Marc Ecko is releasing a licensed Star Wars designed limited edition collection of apparel. We are yet to find out when these pieces will come on sale, but I’m pretty sure it’ll be closer to the holidays for maximum profits!

The official press release stated:

Marc Ecko Enterprises (”MEE”) announced today that the globally acclaimed designer has developed a new, limited-edition collection of Star Wars-inspired apparel under license from Lucasfilm Ltd.
You don’t need to live on Coruscant or Hoth to wear the Star Wars fashions, which is the first time a major designer has teamed up with the creator of the Star Wars Saga. The line will be available this holiday season through top domestic and international specialty stores, celebrating the 30th anniversary of the ever-popular intergalactic adventure.
Combining classic Star Wars imagery and characters with the style and artistic flair of street culture, the collection will feature such pieces as the Hoth Parka (MSRP $98.00), a premium “Fett for Real” sweatshirt ($98.00), a stone Yoda graphic tee ($32.00), and the “Ultimate Vader” hoodie ($78.00), among various other items.
“It is no secret that I am a ‘fanboy’ of all things Star Wars and of George Lucas,” Marc Ecko said. “So when the opportunity to create this collection arose, I jumped on it like Boba on his bounty. Our mission was to dig into Lucasfilm’s archives and emerge with a line that takes its cues from popular culture and adds the rich visual language that made Star Wars the most relevant fable of the last 100 years
