Since I was asked to post my trials with this costume (it took almost a Year for completion), by my friend Sym-Cha, here I am for my first Rebel costume W.I.P.
Why exactly this Luke costume??
Actually it was because I found a great deal on Amazon for the Museum Replicas Official Yavin Ceremony Jacket. I bought it after having researched a bit on the Rebel Legion forum and foud that it was accepted as accurate enough.
I pulled the trigger and here it is, it came with this fantastic dress bag and with a metallic copy of the medal of Yavin:
I started looking for suppliers that already produced the shirt, and the pants....
Actually there were very few of them.
Twin Roses, Indy Magnoli and Corellian Exports.
The first refused on my request because they stopped doing the model, the second looked to me more Han Solo oriented, then I tried contacting the third and told me that even though he did a Han solo costume they could be able to turn into a Luke black one, so I chose to give them the go!
I sent them all of my size measurements and they submitted them to their seamstress. They told me it would be a matching cotton used for the Han Shirt just black tinted, and about the trousers it was the same as Han.
Here's the revisited model they offered:
