I found a really good pattern a few years ago at a fabric store. Had my mother-in-law make it for me. The belt and boots were the hardest to get if your trying to save some money.

The pattern that I found was Simplicity #4450. The best patten that I found.
The hard thing about buying a jedi costume is they tend not to fit as good as a custom made or home made costume.

Most people make em themselves or have a friend sew them up usually. For my gf we used simplicity 5840 I THINK. Although our friend might have used one of hers. That said, there's a lot of modifications that go along with it. Belt, boots, etc.
Hers end up costing around 500 including boots and lightsaber just because we screwed up and had to rebuy all new fabric.

I found costume boots for around $30. My belt I found at Target. My lightsaber handle I made myself.
I'm a seamstress and handmade these alot for uk garrison members 
have also made 2 sets for myself and several padawan and youngling costumes here's some pics of the latest ones
They are all made of wools, silks and linens and are fully lined. I provide everything for the costume apart from boots and sabers! The belts I get come with all pouches and foodcapsules
As I'm on tapatalk I will upload more pics in the next post too sorry

The costumebase Jedi costumes are low quality. May be cheap, but you get what you pay for.
Museum Replicas costumes are higher quality but also pricey. There is a whole discussion about how their pieces are not very screen accurate considering the premium price you're paying for them. MRL also is not offering full "Buy-It-Now" costumes. They're currently only offering various costume pieces for sale.

was wondering if there was a definitive answer on museum replicas yet... a few people I know have been really interested in the Imperial Officer Uniforms!
At the risk of sounding like I'm repeating myself:
I do movie accurate costumes and whilst I charge more than costumebase, I do not charge nearly as much as Museum replicas!! and I belive I offer quite a bit more choice.
