"The first part of it is bamboo, and then I went into the Byzantine and Roman Empires where they started to use metal as body armor, and that's the melding of two significant warrior cultures.

"Master Sol's white Coruscant cloak was large and circular, and when he turns to the younglings, I just thought that sweep of fabric was beautiful. Yord's cloak was a little bit shorter, and the way it was draped on his shoulders was inspired by Roman senators' togas. And he's so fastidious about his wardrobe.
