This...
Was a pain in the butt and far too expensive.
So lets start with some research,
The fabric in the white robe was a booger to figure out if you're not a fabric expert. The large blobby things in the pattern (not the embroidery) are called "slubs". I looked high and low for days on the internet for this kind of fabric. Turns out it's upholstery fabric, but I was fortunate enough to find it on sale.
The Layout of the robes, tunic and pants were another matter all their own. After watching several "making of" Tron videos and the interview with the costume designer Christine Clark (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ko3IXU0BZ1A) gave me the hints I needed.
It turns out the clothes are all variations on Japanese clothing. The Robes are a long long version of a Happi coat with a custom collar. The tunic is a long version of a Kosode. The pants are flat front, baggy and it was easy to just use a PJ pattern
