If Jedi wear traditional outfits, then why does Ani/Luke wear Black!
Both Anakin and Luke Skywalker end up in dark uniforms once they are Jedi. In rotJ, Luke is in Black, and in Ep IIi , Anakin is too. Curious, only those two characters wear clothe not from traditinal Jedi.
Luke's outfit in ROTJ is an amalgam of both the traditional Jedi garb (tunic, vest, cloak) and the color black is a nod to his father.
Ani, unfortunately, washed his outfit one time and forgot that he left his favourite permanent black marker in his pocket. Happens to anyone, tho.
Jedi dont have a "uniform " but they where robes as part of tradition. If you notice many jedi wear unconventionl outfits. That luminare lady wears all Black and alya secure (however you spell it) wears that sexy leather out fit with cleavage and belly showing.
or maybe because its not a strict rule, its just a tradition. Because Aayla doesn't where those same robes either. And some Jedi had green pants, some brown, some blue. Its a tradition, not a rule.
Jedi clothing is generally earth-tones, and tend to look similar (tunics, tabards, obi, cloak), but there's no rule saying that they MUST dress a certain way.
seriously. its a valid question. surely there's some thematic reason (link to Ani in 3, or pre-PT: a link to his father) and there's also the thematic reason that the innocent ideals he once held are dead. Also, in some cultures, black is considered to be the color of knowledge, so it can also symbolise how much more wise and mature he has become, which is also along the lines of the death of this innocence.
LOL OOOOK the REASON why this is foolish is becasue its common sense, all you have to do is not be color blind, and think about it for like 3 mintues, sorry maybe my above post was alittle rough im not trying to be to agressive, but jezz THINK i mean dang anakins clothes arent even black.
i mean of course theres a reason why they where darker clothes, Anakin is dark, and luke, was going to be tempted by the dark side, it wouldnt of looked quite as powerful if luke had been wearing tan
