Welcome back to another installment of the Galactic Style Guide, the monthly series where we break down the ‘ Star Wars aesthetic’ to help you create a more authentic ‘outer persona’! While quality reenacting and living history are geared more towards the ‘common’ experience, Disney’s Galactic Starcruiser hotel experience is billing itself as a luxury cruise, and I’ve seen plenty of folks online asking, ‘What am I supposed to wear?’ With that in mind, I’ve combed my reference library and collected some examples of formal outfits to help get an idea of what ‘fancy dress’ looks like in the Galaxy Far, Far Away. ![]()

Who owns an important novel after the author is dead? Copyright law ideally protects publishers, writers, and their heirs, but the law has limits -and loopholes.

The Royal Diaries were slightly different from the Dear America ones. What was life like on the Mayflower? Did she find a best friend? What were the storms like? Did she throw up? Was she frightened?
