Provenance

Taken by Propworx staff directly from The Bridge Studios, where MGM’s Stargate series were produced.

Costume worn by actress Julia Benson as “Willa”, one of Lucius Lavin’s buxom wives, in the Stargate Atlantis Season Three episode, “Irresistible”. A psychotropic compound, which Lucius baked into his bread and other goods, forced Willa and the other people of the village to become enthralled by him. When Lucius departed for Atlantis, the villagers began to suffer literal withdrawals of the man.
