Darth Vader Appears At London Fashion Week - On Dresses and Blouses By Preen.

In the Fall/Winter 2014 Ready-To-Wear collection from Preen by Thornton Bregazzi, there was an unexpected appearance from Luke's Father on the runway during London's Fashion Week. The image of Darth Vader's head was integrated into 7 pieces from the new collection, appearing printed on geometric print dresses, atop dark busy patterns and on one crisp white blouse amongst the orange, lace, knits, furs and metallics in the rest of the collection.









I love the sign backstage to motivate the models:


Channeling his inner Dark Side, Thornton Bregazzi even had Stormtroopers at the runway show, as you can see in these backstage instagram photos posted by Preen:

Burton and Lucasfilm have teamed up once again. This time for a new series of 8 Chopper Star Wars Snowboards, a Darth Vader version of the Grom Snowboard Boot and a Star Wars Boy's Anon. Boba Fett Helmet and Anon. Boba Fett goggles.



The 2014 Chopper Snowboards, designed for youths, have a beginner-friendly convex base and are made for even the lightest weight rider.
