Costume Standards for Darth Traya

 

 

 

 

 

A Darth Traya Costume Must Have:

(These costume elements are required.)

 

 

Hooded Robe:

* The robe must be made of a matte black fabric. There should be enough fabric to create a suitably loose fitting robe.

* The robe must be floor length.

* The robe should be gathered at the shoulders to create a pleated look that runs down the front all the way from the shoulders to the floor.

* The front of the robe is open from the shoulders to the belt, creating a "V" shaped opening.

* From the belt down, the robe is closed in front.

* The back of the robe is somewhat gathered, but does not have the same pleating as the front.

* The left sleeve can be slightly longer to hide the costumer's hand.

* The hood must be attached to the robe, and should have a pointed tip.

* When worn up, the hood should fall directly over the bridge of the costumer's nose.

 

 

 

 

 

Underdress or Undershirt:

* The underdress or shirt is visible in the "V" opening at the front of the robe.

* If a shirt is used, ensure that it is long enough to stay tucked in at the beltline.

* The fabric should be a deeper shade of black than the outer robe.

* The underdress must have a snug fitting turtleneck opening.

* A dickey may be used if properly secured to stay in place.

 

 

 

 

 

Wimple:

* The wimple should cover the costumers cheeks, chin and neck, and should be long enough to tuck into the high collar of the underdress.

* The wimple should be tight fitting and should accentuate the costumer's cheekbones.

 

 

 

 

 

Belt:

* The belt should be made of matte black leather.

* The belt is aproximately three inches wide.

* The belt consists of three horizontal pieces. This effect can be created by joining three strips of leather, or by cutting or embossing two deep lines in a single strip of leather.

* Two rectangular silver pieces adorn the center strip on the front of the belt.

* The silver rectangles are approximately one inch tall in size and should be divided into fourths.

 

 

 

 

Boots:

* Plain black boots with no visable buckles or laces.

* Low or flat heel

 

 

 

Glove:

* A glove made of flat black material should be used to help disguise the "missing" left hand.

 

 

Hair:

* The hair should be silvery white, but not glossy.

* The hair should be just long enough to reach the chest in front and the shoulder blades in the back.

 

 

Headdress:

* The headdress should be made of black leather with red trim.

* The headdress is fitted closely to the head, with the widow's peak "V" shape in the front coming to a point right between the eyes, about an inch or so above the bridge of the nose.

* There is a red cabochon "jewel" set into the center of the headdress about 1/2 inch above the point.

* The cabochan must be smoothly rounded, NOT faceted.

* There are 6 holes edged in red that go across the top of the headdress. They are squarish in shape.

* The third "hole" on each side of the headdress is where the "pig tails" come out. There should be 2 "holes" on the top & 3 on each side.

* The headdress should cover the costumer's ears.

* For a secrure fit, the headdress can fasten behind behind the head, under the hair.

* There are 6 "hairbands" total, 3 on each side, forming "pig tails". They graduate in size from largest to smallest. They have red bands on the top and bottom of each hairband, aprrox 1/8th of an inch wide.

* A light charcoal gray color runs from the lash lines to eyebrows.
