Darth Sidious' hooded cloak of zeyd cloth.

Darth Sidious' hooded cloak of zeyd cloth.

Zeyd-cloth,[1] or zeyd cloth, was a black-patterned,[2] non-glossy fabric that had square waffle styled weaves.[3]

History

The Dark Lord of the Sith Darth Sidious wore a monk-like, hooded cloak[4] made of zeyd cloth. While some leaders would have donned clothes of the finest synthsilk, Sidious continued to wear his plain Sith robes when he became Galactic Emperor after the end of the Clone Wars,[2] although he did also own a tunic made from Ghorman twill.[5] Minister Veris Hydan, an adviser to the Emperor, wore a zeyd cloth tunic in an ottdefa's cut.[1]

Behind the scenes

In Star Wars: Episode VI Return of the Jedi, the Emperor's cloak was made of black waffle cotton. However, the first incarnation of the Emperor's hooded robe, as seen in the original version of Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes Back, was a simple, navy blue garment of non-textured cloth.[6]
