Hayden Christensen from Revenge of the Sith (BTS)
Hayden Christensen appears in behind-the-scenes footage in the Darth Vader costume during the filming of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith. Revenge of the Sith is Episode III and takes place three years into the Clone Wars, and we follow Anakin as he embraces the Dark Side. This look in particular would make such a fun and niche costume or cosplay that others may not think of, and dedicated fans might recognize.
The costume features the iconic Darth Vader costume, but without the helmet. Instead of the helmet, Hayden wears a black Nike sweatband on his head.
Anakin Skywalker from Ahsoka
Anakin Skywalker makes an appearance in the new Star Wars series Ahsoka in episode 5 on Disney Plus. Hayden Christensen returns to play the part of this iconic character. This series follows Ahsoka Tano as she investigates a threat to a vulnerable galaxy.
Anakin wears a classic all-black Jedi costume. This can be created with a black Jedi costume, his right black glove, black boots, a black pouch belt attachment, and a black shirt.
Mon Mothma from Andor
Mon Mothma, played by Genevive O’Reilly, is the Chandrilian senator in the Star Wars series Andor. This underrated character appeared in different films before, but in this new series, we get to see more of her story.
Mothma is a part of high society and is a poised leader. We see this in her costumes with powerful silhouettes and monochromatic, classy color palettes. Most of the time she is dressed like her environment and her home, which is sleek and minimalistic. She wears white on white, with creams and sometimes with a rose tint. She has unique, asymmetrical, and sharp tailoring. These pieces are usually in cashmere and wool, paired with flowy ones like pants and skirts. Layering so many pieces creates a unique and interesting look that is well put together, just as a senator and leader would be.
Cassian Andor
In Andor, Cassian Jeron Andor (Diego Luna) is a thief whose planet was destroyed by the Galactic Empire’s mining project. He starts out as a cynic only looking out for himself, and gradually transforms into a reluctant revolutionary and then together with Jyn Erso and others, a hero of the Rebellion.
Ahsoka Tano from The Mandalorian
In The Mandalorian, Ahsoka Tano is the lightsaber duel-wielding Jedi Padawan of Anakin Skywalker. She made her live-action debut in season 2, where she encountered Grogu and Mando. Rosario Dawson reprises her role in The Book of Boba Fett and her own series, Ahsoka.
Chewbacca
Chewbacca, affectionately known as Chewie, is a main character in the Star Wars franchise. He is a giant, hirsute alien called a Wookiee. Most importantly, he is the co-pilot of the Millennium Falcon and Han Solo‘s most loyal companion. Alongside the other rebels, Chewbacca helps restore freedom to the galaxy.
Luke Skywalker from A New Hope
Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) is a main character in the Star Wars franchise. We first meet him in Episode IV: A New Hope on the planet Tattooine. Following the loss of his aunt and uncle, as well as his home, Obi-Wan starts training Luke to be a Jedi. Together with his robot companions, C-3PO and R2-D2, and his new allies Han Solo and Chewbacca, he must rescue Princess Leia from the Imperial Forces, led by none other than Darth Vader.
Boba Fett from The Mandalorian
Boba Fett (played by Temuera Morrison) has seen the rise and fall of some of the greatest powers in the galaxy. And by the time of The Mandalorian both his armor and his view of the world reflects that.
While fans of the wider Star Wars universe might remember Boba’s armor from better days, it’s in fairly rough shape by the time he appears in the Disney+ series. Whether new or old, Boba Fett’s armor does not come cheap. Several Etsy sellers have options available, one of which is listed here. This particular seller has several price points available that can either include or leave out the jet pack.
Once you have the armor, you will need the pieces that go underneath it. A long sleeve black shirt in a breathable fabric is perfect on Tatooine while a white gambeson makes a great foundation for the upper body armor. The one pictured above is black but it can be ordered in white and the sleeves are attached with cording so they are easily removed, as is the additional length on the bottom. You will also need black gloves and loose black pants in addition to black boots. Boba Fett is also bald which you can either recreate with a bald cap or leave out by sticking with the helmet or putting your own spin on Boba Fett’s look.
Kuiil from The Mandalorian
“I have spoken.” Kuiil is a character in The Mandalorian, the wildly popular Star Wars TV series on Disney+. He is an Ugnaught moisture farmer and former indentured servant of the Galactic Empire. When he meets the Mandalorian, he leaves his life of solitude and assists him in protecting the Child. Despite his gruff personality, Kuiil is wise, patient, and kind. His relationship with the bounty hunder droid IG-11 plays into the overarching parenting theme. Using his advanced mechanical skills, he was able to reprogram the droid to be benevolent. Kuiil is a favorite among fans, and (spoiler) his death was a particular somber moment in the show. Nick Nolte did the voice while Misty Rosas performed wearing a latex mask controlled by animatronic puppetry. We included a similar mask if you really want to commit to the look.
Mayfeld from The Mandalorian
Migs Mayfeld (Bill Burr) is a character in wildly popular Star Wars TV series on Disney+, The Mandalorian. A former Imperial sharpshooter turned mercenary, Mayfeld leads a rescue attempt from a prison transport ship. This team includes the Mandalorian himself, but they don’t exactly see eye to eye. In fact, the Mandalorian outsmarts him, which results in Mayfeld’s arrest and imprisonment. Later with the help of Cara Dune, and of course with Grogu in tow, he decides to break him out. Despite their clashing personalities, they become allies. Much like the comedian who plays the role, Mayfeld has sardonic personality and hard-edged sense of humor. While Mayfeld was mostly liked by fans, there was an outrage when he dropped The Child!
