    Does anyone have an online source for accurate fabric for an Obi Wan Kenobi epIII costume? I've scoured my local shops, and can't find anything. Any help would be most appreciated! Thanks!!

    I've never seen anything near accurate. The original is an odd mix of thick fibers, loose weave, and crinkle. One guy I know used bubble gauze with good results though he had to back every piece of the pattern with muslin so that it was easier to work with.
