How sick are the Star Wars Space Buns?!? If you haven't already guessed, Space Buns is the famous hairstyle that Princess Leia wears in A New Hope. In this episode we talk about the futuristic look they were going for in the late 70's and the braided crown she has in the other films. We also talk about a fun fact we found and how the Space Buns relate to Padme in a really subtle but imperative way.
