In my search for information about the Star Wars collection by Brazilian designer Triton, I discovered another Brazilian company released their own Star Wars collection around the same time. Riachuelo launched their recent Star Wars collection in stores on May 4th (International Star Wars Day) and included around 30 items, with prices starting at R$25.90 (just over US$10). My favourite pieces are the R2-D2 necklace and the black crop top over a pink singlet. In a quote from Riachuelo’s marketing manager Marcella Kanner on mondomoda.org, he says Riachuelo plans to continue the license and release more Star Wars pieces leading up to Episode 7.

Back in March 2013, the store released a smaller collection of women’s tops featuring Star Wars characters. Bloggers Karine and Carol posted photos of styling their tops from the collection, which Riachuelo shared on their official blog here and here. If only I could get my hands on these, I love the prints and style.
