The Acolyte is here, and StarWars.com take a look at the clothing of these new characters living in a time a century before the events of The Phantom Menace. Designed by costume designer Jennifer Bryan and using as inspiration the works of prequel costume designer Trisha Biggar. Bryan has created the styles of this new era, dressing the Jedi of the era and Mae, the mysterious young woman at the heart of the series, and here we look closer at the outfit of Padawan Jecki Lon, played by Dafne Keen.
Jecki Lon
Some Jedi Padawans of the era, like Sol’s Padawan Jecki Lon (Dafne Keen), wear colorful sashes beneath their belts to signify their status as students. The pop of color, first seen in the Star Wars: The High Republic books and comics, stands out in addition to a classic Jedi tabard style that conforms more closely to costumes of the past. The hair and makeup department worked to craft a Padawan braid for the half Theelin, half human’s short blond locks.
“You’ll notice that she’s wearing her green under sash, which goes beneath her leather belt,” Bryan says, a color that mirrors the vibrant hue of her lightsaber blade. “For the green under sash, I used the wool felt fabric because it gives her some structure. And in terms of just plain practicality, it is going to stay firm and really stand out against the leather belt.”
