Original objects from the Star Wars movies are highly sought after among collectors. Even more so if they are from the first installment.
The specialized firm Propstore Princess Leia’s ceremony dress will be auctioned on June 28of the movie Star Wars: A New Hope (1977).
propstore estimates that Princess Leia’s dress could reach a price of 1 or 2 million Dollars, of departure. It’s about the ceremonial outfit that actress Carrie Fisher wore in the last scene of the movie, when she gives the medals to Han Solo and Luke Skywalker… and she forgets about poor Chewbacca, who deserved it like the most.
This Prince Leia dress is highly regarded for several reasons. First, because all original Star Wars props are. Even more so from the first movie.
And also, because unfortunately Carrie Fisher passed away in 2016, and we already know that the objects of deceased people acquire more value.
