déguisement star wars are one of the best ways to get into the spirit of Halloween. There are so many heroes and villains, so you can pick out a costume that fits your personal style.
The costumes in the Star Wars universe are often a blend of inspiration from Japan and other cultures. This was John Mollo’s goal in creating these costumes and it made for some truly unique designs.
Obi-Wan Kenobi
Obi-Wan Kenobi is one of the most iconic Star Wars characters in history. He played a pivotal role in the fate of the galaxy by mentoring both Anakin Skywalker and Luke Skywalker.
He’s also been a beloved character in the films, appearing in everything from Star Wars: The Phantom Menace to Revenge of the Sith. He’s often portrayed in tan robes, a hooded brown cloak, and knee-high boots.
In the first three episodes of the new Disney+ show Obi-Wan Kenobi, he wears a version of his outfit that looks more like what we would recognize as Jedi robes in the films. The outfit is made of tan outer tunic, a brown inner tunic, and two tabards that extend from his obi to the bottom of his outer tunic.
In Episode 4 of the show, after helping young Leia Organa escape from Darth Vader’s clutches, he changes his costume to a version that is closer to the Master Kenobi we know and love. The costume is a bit more complex than the versions that appear in the movies, but it still looks great!
C-3P0
C-3PO is one of the most iconic characters in all of Star Wars. The droid has appeared in all six films and has a special place in the hearts of many fans.
He is a protocol droid (meaning he assists various heroes) and serves the different cultures in George Lucas’ imaginary galaxy as a translator and diplomat. He is based on an artwork by Ralph McQuarrie and has more personality than R2-D2, although he is a robot and not a human being.
His voice has also been the subject of much debate amongst fans. Daniels explains:
“George Lucas had thought of him as being a sleazy New York second-hand car dealer type of voice,” he says. Eventually, he settled on a more human voice.
Ewoks
If you’re looking to add a little more Star Wars fun to your Halloween costume, then an Ewok is the way to go. While they’re not as recognizable as the Jedi or R2D2, this furry creature is still one of the cutest characters in the franchise and will be a hit wherever you go.
The Ewoks are small, furry mammaloid bipeds who inhabit the forest moon of Endor in the Star Wars universe. They live in arboreal huts and villages, a pre-civilization style of dwelling.
Despite their cute appearance, they are quite dangerous; they plan to eat Han Solo, Luke Skywalker and Chewbacca to absorb their power. Eventually, they work together with the Rebels to defeat the Empire.
They’re a fun and easy costume to create, especially for kids. Just find some teddy bear-like fur pieces of clothes and some Indian spear, and you’re good to go!
Mandalorian
The Mandalorian is one of the most popular characters in the Star Wars franchise. He’s been featured in Empire Strikes Back, Star Wars: The Clone Wars, and now, Disney+’s new streaming series, The Mandalorian.
He’s also one of the most famous bounty hunters in the galaxy, renowned for his skill and expertise in tracking down criminals. If you’re looking to get some serious intel for your next mission, don’t hesitate to add this Mandalorian Beskar armor to your arsenal!
The Mandalorian’s armor is forged from Beskar, a powerful metal that’s extremely tough and incredibly resistant to damage. It’s a metal that was once used by the Mandalorians to protect their warriors against lightsaber blasts.
