It’s not easy to find a Star Wars dress that hits the right notes of sassy and subtle. Designers typically make entire dresses from the vintage Star Wars sheets. It can be a lot to take in. This Etsy seller, Rusty Cuts, blends the sheets with vintage cuts and matched fabric. This change makes the dress adorable rather than over the top. The seller takes custom orders. Just saying.

Whether you want to show your love of photography or annoy the hell out of security guards, this camera t-shirt can make it happen. The shirt features a creative image of a light meter and a vintage Rolleiflex camera that at first glance actually look like they’re slung around the neck of the wearer. Just don’t be surprised when you see security teams rush you when you walk into a museum, courthouse, concert, polling place, or anywhere else cameras are forbidden.
