With just a few days before the release of the latest Star Wars film, the Forever 21 Star Wars collection has been released. This line of intergalactic apparel features streetwear garments branded with recognizable Star Wars references.
While most designer Star Wars apparel comes with a pricey tag, Disney and Forever 21 have teamed up to create a line of apparel that is Star Wars-themed and affordable. The capsule collection is limited to 30 pieces and offers bodysuits, pajamas, sweaters, sweat pants and t-shirts for women, men and children. The Forever 21 Star Wars collection features iconic imagery and quotes from the sci-fi saga branded on each piece.
Being sold by one of the most popular fast fashion retailers makes this collection an inclusive line Star Wars fans of all ages can enjoy and afford.
