I’m guessing they had to go with a look similar to TFA because of her scenes with Leia.

I keep seeing people say this but it’s definitely not true. I mean, first of all, I think there’s pretty much only one Leia moment in TROS that was originally filmed with Rey for TFA (the hug). But more importantly, something like that wouldn’t matter. The only thing they used from the deleted material was Carrie’s head, so the only thing that needed to match was the lighting. I mean, even Leia wasn’t wearing the same outfit.

While it would be difficult to change her outfit through the whole film, it would be interesting if at the end of the film she has a somewhat different look.

I think it would be cool to make her clothes half black/half white, just like you did with Obi-Wan’s in that test you did awhile back. It could also be symbolic of her acknowledging both the light and the darkness in her.

I would absolutely love this. I also had the thought that, when you see Rey light up her saber, instead of seeing hints of blue and green before it ignites, you see blue and red.

Ultimately both of these things would just be sort of subtle subtext, it would really be great if there was some way we could explicitly have her reconcile the light and the dark within her.
