Paul Atreides from Dune
Paul Atreides (played by Timothée Chalamet) is the main character of Dune. Paul is heir to a powerful family, the son of Duke Leto and Lady Jessica. Paul has visions of the future in his dreams, including many of Chani Kynes, a Fremen from the desert planet of Arrakis. On his home planet Caladan, Paul is often seen wearing dark military-style suits with band-style collars and knee-high boots. When his family is attacked and he and his mother seek refuge with the Fremen, they wear stillsuits designed to recycle their sweat and tears into drinkable water. Recreating the complex suits can be tricky, so it will help to be a little flexible with the design. Layering padded motocross armor can help achieve a similar look, and don’t be afraid to use some spray paint to get the color right. Cut the sleeves off a hooded cardigan to finish the look.
