Instructions
-
Jedi or Sith
-
1
Dress more like a priest than a warrior for a Jedi or Sith costume, with flowing robes that move freely. Think of the gui top of a karate outfit with loose stretchy pants fitting into knee-high boots.
-
2
Wear a white top with white or brown pants and brown boots for a Jedi outfit; wear all black with gloves for Sith.
-
-
3
Find a robe with wide cuffs. Underneath the robe, wear a white tunic top that covers a white shirt - just like a Jedi.
-
4
Accessorize. Those strong with the force know how to do this with belts, communicators and weapons. Jedi wear brown belts and Sith black. Any toy store will have a suitable communicator based on the movie, and a light saber. Or check the Things You'll Need list to order online.
Darth Maul
-
5
Buy a child's Darth Maul costume. Even if you can't find an adult outfit, you will want to buy a child's costume for the make-up supplies and application instructions.
-
6
Wear a black tunic top that reaches to just above the knees. (Keep in mind that Darth Maul's tunic has a hood to conceal his identity.)
-
7
Buy Darth Maul's dual bladed light saber at a toy store.
