What's your favorite costume from canon?

I still love everything Leia Organa haa voluntarily worn (though I will admit it's now hard not to think "no bras in space" for that whole first movie.)

"Canon" is a weird thing to define in musical theater but Travis Halsey built the most gorgeous costumes for The Papermill Playhouse's run of Beauty and the Beast last year. Particularly the Lumiere one moves me to tears. The pants are sewn out of individual strips of ribbon! There are pleats in the back of the jacket that splay so beautifully when he spins around. Ugh, it's unbelievable. I can't believe this guy's work isn't on broadway.
