What about the skirt was frustrating for you? If it was the way it was sewn down, you could try approaching it like you would a Sailor Scout uniform, just without the hip rolls. The skirts attached to the leotards are mostly a satin like most use for the Arica skirt.

Now the skirt in the standards looks like it was gathered at the hem, but there are a couple I've seen with a quick google search that were actually smooth at the hem instead. I always look at others versions of the costume I'm making when planning how I make my version, so maybe that will help too?
Trying to create a pattern the looked "right: for the skirt, The first one I created didn't look right; I tried to make my own based on reference photos. I've been looking at several photos of the costume and photos of how people have made it.

I appreciate it I've been collecting reference images of her for awhile.

I'd go read in the Mara Jade section of the forum and see what others have posted. The Arica COstume Stardards Blue Dress post in particular has lots of information. I always try to source everything I need first, and then tackle the hardest thing first.
I have been looking around in there. I made one last year but scraped it because of the skirt. That's the part that I am having the most difficulty with.

Hey all I've wanted to build the Arica disguise for awhile and was wondering if anyone could help me. I have no idea where to start.

-
Welcome back.
-
this is a but unrelated, but ive been hearing a ton of rumors (and i dont know if there true or not) that barriss offee might be an inquisitor in star wars rebels.
I'm hoping she is I would like to see her and Ahsoka meet again.
-
I've thought about just getting wooden hilts to carry with her. I'll look into the colored blades.
-
Where did you find the ventress sabers at? I'm also working on a clone wars barriss. You look great.
-
Bariss is a Rebel Legion approvable costume already, so you could go through them.
I have an ATOC Barriss through them.
-
There's already a Traitor Barriss approved in the 501st.
Thanks for the information.

I don't think she'll end up meeting the darker side of the story requirement, however the worst thing that could happen is you submit for approval and are denied.
I might try it; and we might see her in rebels.
-
Is it possible for Barriss to be a 501st costume?

This is from an event I did back in March. Brian Pauley (Luke Skywalker) and I put together a lightsaber battle to "Duel of The Fates" for the Defiance College Movie Concert in Defiance, OH. We put it together all over Skype. It was supposed to be Mara with a red saber verses ROTJ Luke but due to technical difficulties with our lightsabers we had to do Jedi Mara versus ANH Luke. We put a lot of work into this for only a short 30 second duel; we plan on doing it again at an event in September.

It looks amazing and I can't wait for it to come out. There's also a lot of new costuming opportunities.

I am having sound put into my new custom saber. I have a ultra saber and I don't like that there's no sound in it. But that's just my preference.
-
Are you basing the shin/knee guards off the decipher image of Mara Jade or the comic version? I can send you what I use for mine if you would like.
-
Thanks for the links. Could you share pics with these on in costume?
I can try and upload them. If it doesn't work I can email them to you.
