\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Despite the war between the Jedi and the Sith, women are still expected too look their best, and even in a galaxy far, far away sex sells.<\/p>\n

This sultry advertisement can be seen on several planets across the galaxy but is featured most prominently on the Republic\u2019s fleet hub, Carrick Station. The ad draws inspiration from Calvin Klein\u2019s famous Obsession campaign right down to the to suggestive tag line across the model\u2019s mouth.<\/p>\n

As is often the case, the Aurebesh on this poster is mirrored and must be flipped to be properly read. The design element of the mirrored M or \u201cmern\u201d glyphs works regardless of the flipped design, which may explain why this mistake slipped through the cracks.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t know the meaning of the double M\u2019s but I\u2019m happy to provide baseless speculation after a few minutes poking around on wookieepedia<\/a>. Moltokian Maquillage is the provider of the galaxy\u2019s finest, all natural makeup and cosmetics. If you\u2019ve embraced the Light, you\u2019ll find the most elegant lip-glosses and blushes. Even if you\u2019ve turned to the Dark Side, MM has you covered with discreet foundation to hide even your most debased corruption blemishes. Moltokian Maquillage can be found on sale at the poshest establishments in Coruscant\u2019s Core Plaza, Nar Shaddaa\u2019s Promenade shopping district, and Dromund Kaas\u2019 shadow markets.<\/p>\n

Update:<\/strong>\u00a0The M logo which\u00a0I\u2019d guessed\u00a0applied to a cosmetics company\u00a0may in fact be the branding used by the Coruscant Market<\/a>, and is seen on many posters advertising the fabulous\u00a0shopping options available around the Republic\u2019s capital.<\/p>\n

Update Again:<\/strong>\u00a0While researching signs on the moon CZ-198<\/a>, I came across this poster again which, unlike the version I looked at originally, did not have its edges cropped. A tagline (tying it more directly the Coruscant Market brand) can be read at the bottom of the sign. In addition, I think there might be some vertical text on the left edge of the poster, but it’s too blurry for me to read. I have revised my translation based on the newer image, and it can be seen in the link above.<\/p>\n

Update! Update! Update:<\/strong> When this poster was added as a stronghold decoration<\/a>, I took a third<\/em> pass at this image, and I do believe I have finally the unlocked last of its secrets. I have updated my recreation with a translation of the text of the left side of the image.<\/p>\n
