One of the most impressive outfits on display was the gold faux-chainmail dress worn by Rose McGowan as villainous sorceress.

As you can see, some fairly spectacular hair and make-up completes the otherworldly look. I can't help but feel this would make a fantastic Halloween costume.

In addition to his costume, Khalar Zym's sword was also included in the exhibit. Out of its sheath you can see it has a special double blade which can be used in a pincering motion.

Wendy Partridge was responsible for Costume Design on the movie and for bringing Hyborian fashion to life.

The costume exhibit included this outfit with chainmail sleeve worn by Jason Momoa as Conan. It felt quite heavy, but I'm sure that's no problem for someone with his muscles. Also on display was Conan's broadsword, which he uses to exact revenge on the people who killed his father and destroyed his village.

Rachel Nichols plays 'Tamara' a novitiate at a monastery trained to be the Queen's servant, bodyguard and best friend. She's Conan's love interest in the movie and this is one of her costumes from the movie, which wouldn't look that out of place in a Pirates of the Caribbean film.

Be sure to come back to see more detail of the costumes worn by Stephen Lang as the ruthless warlord, 'Khalar Zym', and Rose McGowan as his daughter and powerful witch, 'Marique'.

Sci-fi and fantasy props at Planet Hollywood Las Vegas...

Welcome to this first installment of movie props, costumes and memorabilia photographed on display at the Planet Hollywood Cafe in Las Vegas on April 7, 2011. For today I've decided to collect together all the fantastic sci-fi and fantasy props found around the movie-themed restaurant.

Arnold Schwarzenegger's Mr. Freeze head

First up it seems only fitting to have a trio of props from Arnold Schwarzenegger movies, considering he was one of the original celebrity backers who founded Planet Hollywood alongside Bruce Willis, Demi Moore and Sylvester Stallone.

Here is his 'Mr. Freeze' head bust from 1997's critically mauled Batman & Robin. Apparently the prosthetic make up and costume for the frosty villain took six hours to apply each day.

Next is Arnold Schwarzenegger's sword from 1982's Conan the Barbarian, the film that kick-started his blockbuster career.
