    Huh. I never noticed the poor actress who played Corde only got to do her death scene. "Here Natalie, you get this nice clean senatorial robe. And you... yeah you have fun signing autographs like that forever."

    Although regular Earthling suits do exist (albeit very rarely) in Star Wars, I'm more interested in finding an appropriate Star Warsified suit. No, not an equivalent, which I'd say could be some of the less flamboyant Senatorial robes we see (e.g. Bail's), but a version of the suit, specifically the three piece (and business coat).

    Jax Pavan is sporting a collarless white shirt with a black stripe miming a tie, a vest and a long coat that's somewhere between a very long suit jacket and your average topcoat. Of course, there's also other bits and bobs like straps (or is it a belt?) with a big ring in the middle worthy of Revan, but it's the closest (and coolest) I've found so far.

    Gamiel I'd say it's specifically the Nightsisters which have seen the most variation. I like that the Witches (and Nightsisters, by extension) are massively varied in appearance, though. I don't like the Jedi uniform established by the prequels or the ubiquitous black bathrobe of the Sith. I like this (Nightsister) appearance the most:

    That is actually three Nightsister looks - Mighella's, Silri's and the SW: Galaxy look.

    I was referring to Mighella's, although I do like the simplicity of Silri's appearance.

    Let's not forget the first Nightsister we ever saw (through the laws of Holy Retcon):

    I've always thought that Sidious and Maul dressing alike is just Maul being a Sidious groupie. Never did I think that black bathrobes were a Sith uniform.

    I do quite like it being the typical apparel of the Banites, however. It gives the Order of the Sith Lords an ascetic monk feel, paralleling their appropriating other Jedi qualities such as patience (and a certain selflessness in perpetuating Sith tradition until victory can be claimed by one's successor). So I'm fine with Bane veering from his Jedi vs Sith appearance, and Zannah, Cognus and Plagueis wearing the black bathrobe. It distinguishes the modern era Sith from the old as well.

    Crew member who wandered on stage at the wrong moment would be my bet.

    I just thought of how much love the idea of the Sith not caring about there physical bodies appearance but being extremely wardrobe conscious.

    Maul: Master, why do we always wear black robes when we meet in secret?
    Sidious: Because we are Sith Lords, masters of the Dark side. That means there is a standard, if we aren't fresh, fetch and fabulous at all times then all we've worked for is for nothing.

    Huh. I am surprised to see multiple people wearing what looks like armor in a diner on Coruscant. I could see it on a rough and tumble rim world, or the darker parts of Coruscant, but it looks a little weird here.
