Sith Lord Ariza Ninx
from The Star Wars Universe
Why Ariza?
As part of joining the charity group Saber Guild, an individual has to create an original jedi or sith character to portray within the group. This opened a lot of creative options when creating a character. Ariza Kelsa Ninx was my first character that I created for Saber Guild. For this, it was all about creating intimidation and movement. She is a powerful force user, preferring to use mind tricks before raising a saber to attack.

How It Was Made
For any Saber Guild costume, there is a set group of materials you must use in order to get accepted. For this, I used Linen/Linen look materials for the entire look. The under tunic is faked and attached to the outer tunic so that it could keep everything in place and still stay cool while performing.
For me, movement is everything. I decided to add a full circle skirt to it. This became such a fun element for my costume because when fighting, I use it to add drama and elegance to my character. While she may be very unhinged, she has a elegance to her that makes her far more deadly in a fight.
