WHO IS THE GALAXY’S BEST DRESSED?

Via Starwars.com:

TWO STARWARS.COM WRITERS DEBATE WHICH STAR WARS CHARACTER — WHETHER SCOUNDREL, ALIEN, JEDI, SITH, OR PRINCESS — HAS THE SHARPEST WARDROBE.

One of the great things about Star Wars is that it inspires endless debates and opinions on a wide array of topics. Best bounty hunter? Most powerful Jedi? Does Salacious Crumb have the best haircut in the saga? In that spirit, StarWars.com presents From a Certain Point of View: a series of point-counterpoints on some of the biggest — and most fun — Star Wars issues. In this installment, two StarWars.com writers discuss which character has the snazziest wardrobe.

Though he is only spotted in a handful of outfits through his appearances in the saga, each of them exudes style.
