In your rush to get new The Force Awakens toys on Force Friday, you may have missed all of the awesome new Star Wars clothes and accessories that exploded onto the Internet. 

A large number of companies released new Star Wars apparel—everything from jewelry to shirts to bags. Star Wars fans in love with geek fashion have a lot to choose from in a release that’s unlike anything we’ve seen before.

With so many options it can be hard to know where to start, so we decided to highlight the best places to begin your hunt for Force-filled fashion. Here are nine companies worth a look.

1) Her Universe

The pioneering fangirl fashion retailer released eight items inspired by The Force Awakens on Friday. The line includes four tees, two pullovers, a raglan, and a tote ranging in price from $15 to $45 that are perfect for anyone eager to celebrate characters like Rey and Captain Phasma or to show their allegiance to the Resistance or First Order!
