Wouldn't this fabric be just perfect for Motee's costume! http://www.denverfabrics.com/catalog_itemdetail.aspx?ItmID=D5169


Looking at the product info, I think it's the thickness that will be an issue as it's said to be semi-sheer:

"One of 28 semi-sheer crinkle fabrics
This fabric would look excellent as a scarf treatment or even puddled on the floor
Suitable for Drapery
100% Polyester"

Unless you line it a lot with an opaque material in same color it might works.


I had actually found a nice "Random" Crinkled Polyester fabric (something like Satin but non-shiny and a lot thinner) like that (but more crinkled) here in Singapore that might work for Motee's Inner Dress/Blouse but unfortunately it only came in Royal Blue and Dark Purple instead of the Lavender/Light Purple of the original. sad

I have the Padme maroon battle outfit from TPM, and I need help with the hairstyle. My hair isn't long enough to do the style, so I got one of those drawstring/jaw clip ponytails. But I'm having a lot of trouble trying to style it. Any suggestions?

I have always loved the parade costume at the end of TPM. I was looking around and I am very unfamiliar with fabrics and their names. But has anyone found a fabric to match the undershirt? I would guess its a kind of a lace but I am not sure.

I've always thought of the undershirt as sort of a shimmery-sheer, very lightly moss-tinted cream color.

Padawan's Guide has an excellent page on it here:
Parade Gown
