Anakin Skywalker (Episode III: Revenge of the Sith)
Required Items:
1. Outer Tunic (OT): Dark brown (darker than inner tunic and pants, and not appearing black) gauze-type weave with a crinkle texture. The direction of the crinkle texture should run vertical on the main body of the OT and along (parallel with) the sleeves. The crinkle texture on the collar should run parallel to the collar-OT seam.
-Heavy Cotton Gauze is preferred. Lighter cotton gauze fabrics should be doubled or lined.
-Collar should be approximately 2 inches in width.
-Bottom hem of the OT should be at mid-thigh level.
-The hem on the bottom of the OT and the end of the left sleeve should be approximately 1 inch wide.
-Sleeves should be tucked under the shoulder ("shoulder tucks") that are at least 1.5 inches deep.
-The end of the left sleeve opening should be at least 1.5 times the width of the hand when spread out (measuring from tip of thumb to tip of pinky finger).
-The right sleeve can be shortened and cuffed in order to fit into the glove without being bunched.
-The OT should be made such that there is a skirt that hangs below the obi and which is attached with a seam to the upper portion of the OT, in order to give a full drape to the lower portion (rather than being form fitting).
-OT should be closed left front panel over the right front panel, with no visible closure mechanism.
2. Cloth Tabards: made of the same fabric as the Outer Tunic, and extending the same length as the OT to the front while ending under the Obi in back.
-Cloth Tabards run underneath the leather tabards and, on the back, form a "V", but do not cross.
-Typically made in a "Y" form where the lower portion of the "Y" hangs below the Obi, in front.
-The crinkle texture of the fabric should run parallel to the direction of the Cloth Tabard.
-The width of the Cloth Tabards should be the same as the Leather Tabards and extend from the collar-to-OT seam (at the neck) to just past the edge of the shoulder tuck portion of the OT.
3. Leather Tabards: Dark brown leather (fine grain) or pleather tabards with a shoulder and waist seam (waist seam is covered by the Obi). The color should be at least as dark (or darker) than the Outer Tunic, but should not appear as black.
-In similar fashion to the Cloth Tabards, the Leather Tabards should be made in a "Y" shape.
-Leather Tabards should end below the bottom hem of the Outer Tunic in front AND back. The front Leather Tabards can extend further than the back tabards, but should not extend past the knee.
-The preferred material for the Leather Tabards would be fine-grained sheepskin leather.
4. Obi (or sash): made of the same fabric as the Outer Tunic.
-The direction of the crinkle texture of the fabric should run diagonally (rather than parallel) across the Obi.
-The Obi should extend approximately 2 inches above and below the leather belt.
-The closure system should not be visible.
5. Inner Tunic (IT): Chocolate brown bubble gauze type fabric without obvious crinkles as the Outer Tunic. Color is lighter than the OT/Cloth Tabards/Obi and is the same color as the pants.
-Can be made in similar style as the Outer Tunic OR may be a full or false tunic (since only the collar and left sleeve shows).
-Collar is approximately 2 inches wide.
-Left sleeve extends to the wrist and is form fitting to the arm.
-Closure should be left over right with no visible closure mechanism.
6. Pants: Brown lightweight cotton twill texture of the same color as the Inner Tunic (and lighter than the Outer Tunic). Should appear slightly full (or baggy) and tucked into the boots.
7. Belt: Dark brown leather belt, and lighter than the Leather Tabards, Glove and Boots. The belt consists of two belts, a wider inner (against the Obi) belt approximately 2.25 inches in width and an outer belt approximately 0.75 inch in width. The thinner outer belt is held in place with eight (equally spaced) silver button studs and closes with a rectangular side release (or snap closure) buckle.
-Outer (thinner) belt has two leather keepers on either side of the center buckle.
-Both belts may be a smooth grain leather that is aged.
-The inner (against the Obi) belt has two incised lines running parallel to the length of the belt and approximately 0.25 inch from each edge. The outer (thinner) belt has similar incised lines very near each edge.
-The belt is closed in the back with a large keeper hiding the closure mechanism. (No visible closure mechanism.)
-The belt accessories should be arranged in the proper order (see below).
8. Belt Accessories (Pouch and Boxes):
-One dark brown leather pouch with a hidden snap or magnetic closure, approximately twice as tall as the inner (against the Obi) belt and half as thick as the resin cast boxes. There should be scored vertical lines on the flap.
-One wide, smooth, resin-cast, brown, rectangular box with a centered, gold, elliptical button. Worn on the back right next to the centered keeper.
-One wide, ribbed, resin-cast, reddish-brown (and may have, but is not required to have small gold buttons on each side). Worn on the back left next to the centered keeper. This box is slightly larger than the smooth brown box (with centered, gold elliptical button).
9. Food Capsules, eight in total and measuring approximately 2.25-2.5 inches long by 0.5 inch wide. The Food Capsules are colored two each: gold, silver, copper, gunmetal. Originally made from Staedtler Liquid Roller Point Pen caps with a half hemisphere glued to the opening.
-Four Food Capsules are worn on each side (of the belt) and are placed in the following order, front to back: silver, copper, gold, gunmetal. Actual placement is listed next...
-Four Food Capsules are worn on the left hip (behind the Covertec Clip). Two are worn on the left hip immediately behind the leather pouch. Two are worn on the left hip immediately in front of the leather pouch.
10. Covertec Clip, original design, worn on the left hip between the buckle and the four Food Capsules.

PLEASE NOTE: Measurements are given in this costume standard. These measurements are based on an individual being approximately the same size as the actor portraying this character. As is always the case, the Rebel Legion is far more concerned about a costume fitting the wearer and being proportional than with actual measurements. While for some, these measurements will be accurate. For others, some adjustments would be required to have the costume appear proportional to a given body type.
