I just wear a dark shirt and dark thin pants under mine. When its cold,
like during our annual Christmas parades, I wear several layers of long
johns underneath and I get to be warm while the Stormtroopers freeze
there asses off and complain about how cold the armor feels against
their nipples.
It's my understanding that the padded undersuit for the original
trilogy costume was not secured to the fur suit in any way. The suit
was tight enough that it didn't move too much and any that did would
appear 'realistic' like animal hide sliding over the muscles
underneath. I'll be sure to ask Peter about it at DCon this year.
BTW, welcome to the group.
