Leia's Yavin ceremonial dress question

[Ninka]

Hello,

For any of you who have made Leia's ceremonial dress, was there a pattern that you found useful to start with? The ones listed on Padawan's guide don't seem to be in print any longer. I'm willing to adjust a close enough pattern if any one has a suggestion. I may end up building my own pattern (I can do it, I'm just not very practiced at it).

Thanks for any tips or info.

As always when it comes to Star Wars costuming, do check out the costuming groups' resources and their old forum threads. In this case, Rebel Legion's Leia subforum.

You can sometimes find out-of-print patterns on the second-hand market, especially if they are popular for cosplay.
