This Star Wars fashion collection by Nixon is unique in that it bases its items directly drawn from the film epic.
In collaboration with Disney and Lucas Films, Nixon is releasing a line of Star Wars fashion accessories, including watches, belts and wallets. Each piece in the capsule collection is decorated in a detailed Star Wars-themed design. Even more intriguingly, each item can be traced back to a specific character who inspired it. The collection takes its themes and motifs from four classic Star Wars characters: the Stormtrooper, the Imperial Pilot, Darth Vader and Boba Fett.
With the enormous hype for the upcoming 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens,' there's been a huge outcropping of Star Wars fashion, food, toys, furniture and more unexpected goodies, including these Nixon accessories.
