In which version of the script was all of this mentioned?
A bloodied, bruised and bare-breasted Leia is quite a departure from the child-friendly SW we now know. But from what I’ve gathered, the film was meant to be a lot more adult even up to the point when they were getting ready to start filming. Having glanced through the first 10 pages of Mayhew’s 1976 script I’ve noticed a slightly more “brutal” description of the fighting on-board the Tantive IV.

Also is this thread meant to be about SW costumes in general, or early ideas for costumes?

Anyway, here’s an early design of Leia I think looks quite cool;

It has a very Flash Gordon-esque feel to it.
