Compare And Contrast Romeo And Juliet

My Romeo and Juliet designs are set in the Star Wars Universe, roughly taking place around the time period of “The Phantom Menace”, if not a few years prior. Because of this, their outfits, particularly Juliet’s, follow most of the ‘uniform’ guidelines set around their respective factions, with some minor liberties taken that would be appropriate within the context of the setting. Juliet is a Jedi Padawan and Romeo is a Sith Apprentice, which reflects both their young ages in the original play and the animosity between the Montague and the Capulet families. This puts them in the junior positions of their factions, analogous to their hierarchical standing within their families in the play.
The decision as to which faction they would each represent was only slightly difficult to resolve. Romeo is shown to be very easily swayed by other people and his own emotions and is very passionate with everything he does.

I believe
Red and black for the Sith faction was a given, but I debated for a time between an earthy green and pale blue for the Jedi.

Blue, however, may be even more appropriate theatrically and thematically, as blue and red are often seen as opposites (despite the inaccuracy of that conception) and are still appealing paired together. This works for a Romeo and Juliet romance, due to the ‘star crossed lovers of opposing factions’ aspect of their story. Also, red and blue make purple together and that’s
