Carrie Fisher – Return of the Jedi – 1983
Carrie Fisher, wearing a golden metal slave bikini, made an indelible mark on pop culture in “Return of the Jedi,” a 1983 cinematic classic. Positioned sideways on a couch, she supports her head with her left hand adorned with a golden bangle, embodying the iconic Princess Leia.
This outfit, worn during her captivity by Jabba the Hutt, symbolizes vulnerability and strength as she eventually overthrows her captor. Carrie looks stunningly formidable, and her portrayal became a feminist symbol, challenging the traditional damsel-in-distress trope. Her role solidified her as a key figure in Hollywood and a beloved and influential icon in the science fiction community.
