“In a way Marquand should get the lion's share credit for that, because it was his idea. I think he saw [Carrie Fisher] in Empire and thought ‘Boy, they're not really showing her figure at all,’ and sort of went the opposite extreme. [The concept artists and costume designers] were inspired by Frank Frazetta art and came up with this amazing slave girl costume, which hit a chord.”
