Hi Edwin. How did you get on with the skirts?I just let my beard grow and it seem to fit the part. I agree that the boots look like they are covered with some kind of gaiters with a strap or two in the back.
As for the Saber, I got some files for 3D printing Disney Savi light sabers parts, so I took the 3D file of Baylan’s saber enlarged it to the Savi size, cut some parts and combined a few things. Not quite right and a bit big but it passes. I used it for the Ahsoka Screening at LFL in San Fran. It was pretty nice time. There where two others trying to do the Baylan outfit.
I regret not taking a picture, saber fighting with one of the Ahsoka’s that were there, but next time.
As for the gauntlets… They were a bit of a pain; I used some Velcro and a strap going around the back end. They were a bit to small, I have since resize them better making them a bit shorter and a bit wider (was hard to bend my elbows and hard to close with gloves), I’ve 3D printed them and will be using magnets like used with the Mando gauntlets, will be ordering the magnets this week to see now it works. Also looking at butting some lights, the new print I did, I cut out the buttons to have them open, I put clear cover so light can come through. The button layout is a bit different then the 3D files I have but I might try to change it later.
I’m still not to sure his top is made of leather but I do agree in the style is a mix of medieval knights and Japanese outfits types. I did my top as a Tunic/Tabard style with the skirt sewed to the top vest. But after seeing it again, he has two layers of skirts so I might be looking into adding the 2nd layer.
Also am reprinting the shoulders to make them about 10% bigger, Haven’t finish yet, should be done by tomorrow so I can test it out. Was debating with going 5% or 10%, I’m trying the 10% first and see how that goes, it does need to be a bit bigger for me to make it a tab bit more comfortable.
Another thing I’m reprinting is the stone for the buckle, it seems huge in the series.
Not much can be made out from the first two episodes that hasn’t been looked at in the trailer and other pictures. Waiting to see what else we can notice in the other episodes. Anyway, and interesting character and costume.

I'm trying to work on a pattern to get started. Seems like one wide piece at the back, and two narrower ones at the front. BUT, then as you say, there could be multiple layers?
