Chenoa, a hairdresser at The Beehive in Vancouver, BC, made this amazing Star Wars text-crawl dress with matching headband.

My friend dressed up as the scroll from Star Wars (via Neatorama)

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

The Snowden Principle

  • Caroline

    That is totally hot.

  • Chentzilla

    Is the headband an R2-D2 reference?

    • hpavc

      I believe the ‘star wars’ is the head band. the thing in her hair is merely a distraction, nothing to see here.

    • Gtmac

      While difficult to read in the picture, I believe the head band says “A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away.”

      That would be consistent with the crawl.

      • Donald Petersen

        Would explain the bluish color, too. I believe you’re correct.

  • Anonymous

    I like it a lot, probably because she is wearing it though.

  • funkadelic73

    She is SMOKIN’!

  • pKp

    I’m afraid the text being very large at the bottom and very small at the top would look a bit…unflattering (i.e. make your hips appear larger and your breasts smaller). Good idea, though.

    • querent

      Depending on what your “type” is, you might be fine.

  • Teapunk

    Great idea, but will be … rather unflattering to your proportions.

  • roboton

    I am totally crushing on her right now.

  • Rob

    Love at first sight.

  • Anonymous

    Complete with the “As Many Dots As It Takes” ellipsis.

    Smart Geek Girl!
    As I found out the first time I wore my “ninja burger” t to a party, there’s nothing better for weeding out the geeks (in the positive manner) and starting conversation than something geeky on your shirt that gives a guy an excuse to start at your chest AND ask a question without getting slapped. ;-)

  • ziggurat

    Why is star wars so important to the illuminati?

  • braininavat

    Star Wars geek foreplay: ..and then after she pulled the dress off we watched the movie.
