Channeling the Force

The costume is very familiar and was fashioned from $12 worth of golden fabric and fitted with its iconic belt. Meet C-3PO, the life-sized droid hero, noted for his perfect etiquette and protocol, who has been featured in almost every Star Wars film since the franchise first screened in May 1977. It took Geri Hongeva, a Navajo woman from Flagstaff, two days to sew the costume in 2018, with the help of her son, who is more experienced in cosplay, the practice of dressing up as a character from a movie, a book or video game. It is a character she knows well, having been chosen in July 2013 by Deluxe Studios to be the voice of C-3PO in “Star Wars: Episode IV, A New Hope,” which was dubbed into the Navajo language and has gained international attention for the Navajo tribe’s efforts to preserve its language. She is the only woman to voice the droid in the history of Star Wars, which has been translated into 50 different languages. Hongeva first wore the C-3PO costume at the Indigenous Comic Con in Albuquerque in November 2018, where cast members gathered for the five-year anniversary of Navajo Stars Wars. “It was challenging because I am a Navajo female trying to depict a male droid,” Hongeva explained. “Firstly, I wanted to show the feminine parts of C-3PO, like the corset. Secondly, the iconic Threepio belt had to be distinct and display robotic features.
