From the 1980 science fiction cult classic, starring Sam Jones in the lead role as Flash Gordon, comes this impressive costume worn by one of the inhabitants of Mongo.
The Costume was used in the lavish and extravagant finale sequences.
Highly distinctive and indicative in colour and style of the whole film, the two piece Costume comprises of a large one piece long over head tabard gown with corresponding trousers. The tabard features shoulder armour epaulettes, constructed of fibre glass and both costume pieces are heavily and intricately detailed with ornate decorations. The trousers retain their original interior wardrobe detailing which is an added rarity with Flash Gordon wardrobe. Exhibits signs of age wear but remains in very good condition and presents superbly.
Flash Gordon pieces become increasingly difficult to source and wardrobe such as this from the film seldom surfaces on the collectors market.
