does this costume have adequate references? the movie does not show front/back/side shots;
and the "concept art" is just that -- concept art is never allowed as reference material.
I fear the references simply don't exist, to support this costume in the RL -- unless I'm missing something? _________________

Pretty sure they were taken during the film in a nearly empty/empty theater. LOL You can see the tops of the seats on the bottom of the photo.
I am looking at this and seeing what is basically a karate gi with gray pants. My only comment on the standard would be a bit more specific on the type of fabric required. "Natural fibers" could be many things. Specifying linen or cotton or twill etc might help other costumers moving forward. _________________ Community Member of the Year 2019

Aye! I hear you
Unfortunately we do not know what the original fiber was. :/
It is a thicker natural fiber. Would be a non chunky linen if it is linen. It's non see through. Looks dense and high quality. Non poly for sure!  _________________

Then perhaps listing a few possible options? You're much more knowledgeable about material than I am so probably have better ideas for what could be used. I'd definitely say linen but twill might also be a good option.  _________________ Community Member of the Year 2019

Hello everyone!
I agree with Dawn and Natalie. It is a good option to put a list of possible alternative fabrics to make the Costume. This would be very helpful for members
Other change that I propose for the Costume. That to register this Costume, require that the applicant has already registered another Costume in The Rebel Legion (something similar to the Costume Willrow Hood). It is an opinion '

I agree. This is a fairly simple costume so having an approved costume already within the Legion sounds like a good idea. Perhaps a generic Jedi and then you can be approved with this? Or something similar.
I also had a comment on the hair requirements. I appreciate all the detail in the description but can we really tell that much about the hair from the photos posted? If you reference simply the concept art, it is a shag boy cut. If you reference the film itself, it is similar to Kylo's hair throughout TLJ. Can we go more of a generic route in terms of color and general length? Asking for very specific layers etc in the back when you can't really see it defined seems a bit much. Unless there are clearer photos of the hair that I am not aware of that is. Just a thought. _________________ Community Member of the Year 2019
