Prequel Jedi Costume Standards
Required:
1. Outer tunic (OT):
a. Full sleeve (to wrist) unless an inner tunic (IT) is worn.
b. No kimonos’s, karate/judo gi allowed.
c. Sleeveless outer tunics may be fastened at the front and have an attached hood, though a hood is not compulsory. No vests, or sleeveless V-neck type sweaters may be worn as a sleeveless OT. A sleeveless OT should be surcoat or standard OT style in length. (Ki Adi Mundi and Sarrissa Jeng are examples of surcoat style OT's.)
d. Tabards should not be worn with Ki Adi Mundi style OT or surcoat. Tabards are required with the standard OT style.
e. OT’s must have a collar approximately 1 inch to 2 inches wide.
f. OT's overall length may be variable and may extend to the floor. OTs must be at least tigh length and cover the butt aka 2 inches past crotch and butt.
Example of tunics:

no sleeves, mid thigh

halfsleeves, knee

Sleeve length and length of tunic is interchangeable and can vary, this is not how it should be done, but examples!
2. Tabards:
Must extend at least to or past the bottom hem of the OT on the front. The back tabards may end under the obi or may extend to or past the bottom hem of the OT (e.i. be the same length as the front tabards). For OTs that are longer (past the knee or to the floor or where a full length skirt is worn), the tabard length may be shorter. (Around or past knee length).
a. Tabard construction should be such that the front tabards do not overlap. This is often accomplished by constructing the tabards in a “Y” formation where any seam joining the tabard below the obi to the tabard above the obi is covered by the obi. Tabards may cross in the back. Tabards may be sewn together in the back.
b. Scarf-style tabards, having an around-the-neck design, are permitted.
c. A single front tabard, centrally located (covering the crotch area) is permitted.
d. The end of the front tabard(s) may have a variable design (square, rounded, triangular, octagonal, etc.)
e. Tabards may have borders and/or varying decorative symbols or other decorations (such as Aurekbesh, etc.). The decorations/designs should not obviously be from an Earth-bound period or culture (Renaissance, Celtic, Asian, tribal, etc.)
f. Leather or pleather tabards are permitted.
g. Tabard width should generally be from the seam at the collar of the OT to the edge of the shoulder (and be a similar width as the obi). A common sense should be used in selecting tabard width, and the width should be proportional to the costumer’s body.
