 Step 1:There are many excellent tutorials online for making an impressive Jawa costume. The goal of this costume was to create something accurate and simplify many of the build aspects. Let’s get started! |  Step 2:The robe is made from Monk’s cloth, a cotton-based weave that drapes and folds easily. I found this difficult to source locally and had to resort to online means. You can purchase natural fabric in order to mix and dye your own shade, or ready-made brown. I looked into both and after hot dying my own brown, decided the darker shade that was ready-made would be used. About 4 yards of fabric for a child under 10-years old was about the right amount. Make sure to sew the edges and pre-wash. |  Step 3:The fabric for the robe is best folded at the shoulders and trimmed to shape with droopy sleeves and small hole cut out for the head. Once turned in-side out, you have a great Jawa robe to build upon. |
