Thread: I want to look just like that guy in the movie
In Empire she seems to be wearing a white reinforced jumpsuit with a cute white quilted vest that we can't make (curses) and some kind of white boots. You can see the jumpsuit better later on Bespin, when she wears it without the vest.
She also wears the Cloaked Dress (one of my personal favorites) on Bespin, with a plum or reddish bodice and white drape.
And on Endor with the Ewoks she wears the default brown and tan Maiden's Dress.
Chancellor Vallorum wears a dark colored (black with a reddish sash?) smock in Episode II.
One cool thing I have noticed is that for many of the clothing items that appear in the movies, the default color that shows up in the crafting window is the color that was feaured in the movies. Like the maiden's dress, flared-sleeve shirt, and cloaked dress mentioned above, as well as the blue/yellow stipped pants that Han wears, and the yellowish rugged jacket that Luke wears at the medal ceremony. It's very helpful when trying to make out the movie costumes.

Episode 1:
Nute Gunray, Trade Federation Viceroy, opening of episode 1: Dark red double robe, with orangish sleeves (not the brightest orange), gemstone crest in silver tones (closest you can get)
Padme on Tatooine: blue flared cuff shirt w/ med grey trim, belted vest in grey with blue belt, standard boots, pantaloons in about 1 shade off darkest black
Jedi: belted vest, trim lined shirt in browns. Qui Gon wears dark brown pants, Obi-Wan wears light ones. For pants, crafter's pants look good when worn under a cloak, haven't tried with a vest yet.
Episode 2:
Padme, arrival at Lake Retreat: Grand Ballgown, yellow top and either pinkish bottom or blue-purple (we can't have 3 colors like on her dress), I paired it with women's shoes as it looks like she's wearing flats, not pumps.
Padme, fireplace scene: black luxurious gown
Padme's wedding dress: intricate dress, ivory
Anakin: Black decorative vest, dark brown trim lined shirt, black high quality or uniform boots
Aylaa Secura (twi'lek jedi): Lekku wrap, revealing top, crafter's pants in either dark brown or black.
Episode 4:
Leia at awards ceremony: Loose dress, both colors white, plated necklace
Luke at awards ceremony: Rugged jacket (I ended up using a shade of orange, the browns didn't pop like the color does in the film), brown comfortable slacks, black boots (high qual or uniform), black formal shirt
Episode 5:
Luke on Hoth: Vested jacket tan with white sleeves, tan pants (large pocket pants work), grey cold weather gloves, panelled boots (white ribbings, with grey)
Han on Hoth: Scout Jacket, navy blue (or a shade or 2 off of black, we don't have navy blue), panelled boots w/ white ribbing, light blue body, white cold weather gloves. Swoop helm looks ok but can't really make it in the same colors.
Luke, Dagobah: Reinforced work shirt, large pocket pants in tans. Olive muscle shirt if you want to go more bare.
Bossk, Trandoshan bounty hunter: heavy flight suit in default colors
I have notes on a couple more but have yet to figure out which specific items match closest.
good list...1 correction though...Anakin's Episode 2 boots are dark brown...not black.

You know after watching the OT the other day I got the insperation to change my displays around in my shop by making all the outfits worn by the well known characters in the movie. I started out today, making Luke, Leia and Han's outfit at the ceremony. I was spot on with others lists here
This thread will help me greatly in making the other outfits. I plan on putting them up for display with each item named after the character, where they wear it and what it's game-name is like (Han Solo - Hoth - Scout Jacket).
This thread NEEDS to be a sticky!
I have been doing this too. I have outfits for Ackbar, Jedi Luke, Endor Rebels, Hoth Rebels, etc etc. I scoured books and movies to get them.
I just finished my shop, and had everything on display, vendors fully stocked. Was about to post on the forums advertising when....
MY HOUSE AND EVERYTHING IN IT WENT *POOF*
/cry
I give up.
Can I ask what you used for the Endor rebel uniforms? I have a customer who requested the same outfit, but I've been having a hard time figuring out what they're wearing from my tape.
I just made a rebel Endor Commando outfit:
Spec. ops duster - light green/grey/brown
Form-fitted undershirt - light Tan
Paramilitary camos - light green/grey/brown
Sturdy Boots - light green/brown
Small pocket belt - dark green
Ammo Bandolier - dark brown
Link Steel Gloves - light green

I am going to post that question in the Armorsmith forum, to see if they know.

Not positive, but I heard that helmet is a Rebel theme park reward. Hope this helps.
You are correct, sir.
