I get a lot of emails on where someone can buy this outfit. Unfortunately this is not an easy costume to make, thus it isn't available to buy - at least one you would truely want to wear as an accurate represenatation of Darth Maul. The costume that I own is made of wool, linen and satin and has loads of material in it. You will probably spend about $500 in fabric. The sewing is also quite complicated. There are well over 100 pleats in the cloak alone. If you've ever tried to sew a pleat, especially an accordian pleat...well....RUN. Sure you could do it without pleats, but honestly, the pleats are what give the cape such an awesome swoop and flow. Without the pleats...mreh. I paid around $1000 to have my costume made (at the time I could not sew anything this extensive). It took the company quite some time to sew individual pleats in and make the several jackets and vests. The sabre isn't so hard to aquire now, but the boots are near impossible. The only thing you can do is get something close from a british company for about $250. And if you were hoping to hire the company I did.. the lady, Kathy, who made it for me went out of business a while back. She comes and goes but I don't think she makes this costume anymore. If she re-opens I will post it here. Best Villain Award Dragoncon 2001
