With the right gear, you can be a part of the rebellion too. To pull off Leia’s look, you’ll need a classic deluxe Princess Leia costume, Princess Leia Wig, white go-go boots, and a break barrel air pistol. You can also dress up as Leia in a Princess Leia slave costume paired with some women’s 103 Alba boots.
