burntcopperYes I do. Okay, so the Twi'lek slave girl dancer outfit is fairly simple. Except oddly, you feel more naked in it than you do in a bikini. I don't know why.
It's the bloody loincloth.
(said loincloth being piece of cloth strung between a piece of rope)
1) Why the hell would you put it on the outside? Have just been sewing an old pair of knickers into the inside to ensure comfort.
2) The waist height thing. This is, in fact, the most important part. There was a *reason* loincloths of antiquity were not waist height but instead, hip height. There is gapeage if you lean forward. They're bloody uncomfortable. Look at Leia's bikini outfit. That is at comfortable height.
ETA : Have found the studio reference shots for Oola. Which include profile headshots. There is a strap that goes under the chin, attached to the headband. Which means the tentacles will stay *on*.
