#star wars fashion
I have never been a party person but nightclubs on Coruscant sound like the most fun in the entire world
Everyone reblog with the outfit you would wear to a Coruscant nightclub, I’ll go first:
I want this dress by Georges Hobeika but in red
I think I would go for something shiny and sparkly like this dress from Narces SS 2018
Star Wars Culture Week Day 1: Fashion
For this prompt, I drew my Jedi oc Vedaat Altın (he/him) in casual cultural clothing, inspired by my own cultures (Turkish and Syrian). More notes under the cut!
also please tap for better quality hdhshah I’m on mobile and ofc Tumblr messed w/it
Here are the prompts:
It’s Star Wars Culture week! My family is Polish on my dad’s side (my last name makes it quite obvious lol) and I wanted to incorporate that into Star Wars! You don’t see much Slavic inspiration in Star Wars, let alone Polish inspiration.
I decided to take Pantorans and do a bit redesigning! I think Slavic culture fits them quite well, since they’re built for cold weather!

Philippine and Hispanic Fashion in Alderaanian Culture
Decided to have a go at @starwarscultureweek ’s fashion promt, Pinoy edition ✨

Image Description: Alderaanian formal-wear similar to the garb of Queen Breha Organa—wide, flowing skirt; puffed sleeves; multiple layers/overlaying shawls or cloth.
The wide skirt, puffed sleeves, and layered formal wear that we see on Queen Breha Organa of Alderaan is very similar to the traditional FilipiñanaorTagalogBaro’t Saya that was popular during the Spanish and early American occupation the Philippines. Filipinas would generally style their hair in a simple low bun, but the use of an inter-laced head wrap in Alderaanian fashion is very similar to the ribbon braids of Mexican culture.
Also worth noting is the fact that Queen Breha was played by Rebecca Jackson Mendoza, a Filipino-American actress.

We don’t really get to see much more in live action SW with regards to fashion and culture in Alderaan, but I decided to adopt Alderaan into Philippine heritage.
The Philippine archipelago is so diverse, so I imagine the same can be said for Alderaan if you were to expand that diversity to the level of an entire planet.
My OC, Kiray’aha Osah, also comes from Alderaan, but her heritage is more Visayan (central Philippines) than Tagalog (northern Philippines). We can see this in her choice of weaponry—she uses a dual saber (homage to the national martial art of arnis/kali eskrima), and her hilts are designed after the the Visayan sword known as the kampilan, featuring the head of abakunawa (a mythical moon-eating dragon).
Image Description, left to right: My OC, Kiray’aha Osah wielding her sabers and wearing plastoid thigh, shin, and ankle guards; Kiray-aha striking double-sinawali/arnis stance with dual sabers; Kiray'aha’s saber hilts, close-up.
Her tattoos are also an homage to the pre-colonial tattoo artistry of the Visayan region known as the batukorpatik.

#StarWarsCultureWeek
Day 1- Fashion
I can’t begin to express how excited am for this event! For those who don’t know about it, check out this post (x). I really wish I was an artist so I could draw what I envision in my mind but I will do my best to describe with words and provide references. These prompts will be based on my fic “Call the Twi'lek Midwife” (masterlist is here if you want to check it out x) but you do not need to have read my fic to appreciate my posts for this event. I will mostly be writing about a culture of Twi'leks I created for my fic. This culture is based on my Métis (Métis are people of mixed European and Indigenous ancestry, and one of the three recognized Aboriginal peoples in Canada), Apache, and Indigenous Mexican heritage. This first post will be about clothing and jewelry.
sw culture week day 1 - fashion
Folkloric dance is something so beautiful! There are many beautiful clothing all around the country, but I really wanted to portray the beauty of these dresses! This one is from Jalisco, and every state has it’s own but I think more about these than the others to be honest. If you can, you should see these in action, it’s beautiful beyond words!
