Darth Maul - the beginning

So, in January I started work on a Darth Maul robe for my nephew, but didn't get very far. I did some more work in the first half of February and have currently put it on hold to try and make a jacket for myself.

This first thing I did when I got the idea for the costume, was to make a couple of work sketches to help me keep track of seams and layers. This costume has a lot of layers... And they're all black. Fun fun.

My costume sketches after an evening of research looked like this:




Note, I'm only doing the robe right now, and I'm cutting down heavily on the folds. (My sketch also have the short leg problem).

I started out with making a pattern for the shoulder support. This needs to be double layered with slightly differences between inner and outer layer.




I then worked on the sleeves. The sleeves are a bit funny due to their seamline in the middle and the square shape of them. Firstly I just did the top to test how it fitted with the support piece.



I did a test on some brown fabric I had lying around and then went on to the black fabric when my test went well.

Inner back and front support piece:


This is what the support pieces looks like:


The pieces have been sewn together along the shoulder seam. I added some extra width, so it will be possible to later maker it wider across the shoulders.


Then came the sleeves. There's one pattern for the top part and one for the bottom part. I needed two of each.




Finally, I sewed the sleeves together, leaving them open in one side for the forearm and hand to poke out.





This is where I'm currently at. Next up is the main part of the robe, which I'll look at sometime after the 22nd of Marts. :)
