"Nice uniform."
"Thanks, but the collar's a little snug. Now I know why Imperials are so uptight."

―Luke Skywalker and a disguised Lando Calrissian^[3]

The Imperial officer's uniform was the formal standard-issue dress worn by military officers of the Galactic Empire. The uniform varied in color depending on an individual's military branch affiliation. Officers wore rank insignia plaques and Imperial code cylinders on their uniform to specify their rank. The Imperial officer's uniform directly descended from the uniform worn by Galactic Republic officers.
