You guys are a little out of date with fashion. Pretty much everything anyone wears these days is blander versions of previous decades. The idea seems to be to get all the good of previous decades while avoiding the main features of everything the baby boomers wore: they looked really stupid.

I actually really like this costume. I would like some stars on the pants as well, and there actually being boots that you can see in there somewhere, but the rest of it is good.

Would it have been so bad to simply give Diana dark blue pants with some stars on it? I’d even accept changes in the belt (the new belt actually looks really good) and perhaps changes in her red boots.

But they really should have left everything from the waist up ALONE.

And I’m a serious UNFAN of the jacket.

It just reminds me too much of Thunderstrike.
Here’s a quick sketch I did just to try my hand.

It reminds me of Donna Troy crossed with YoungJustice!Cassie. Which is full of fail. That’s not Wonder Woman. It’s Donna. And that’s not what you want people saying.

Honestly, if they’d left off the jacket and the choker they probably could’ve gotten away with it – thanks to Ultimate Thor, I think the simple tank-top costumes are popular with street-fighting bruiser superheroes.

But as it stands, the costume is, I agree, hopelessly dated.

Could somebody explain one thing to me: why does WW dress in the American flag? I mean, I know that Athena gifted her with the wisdom of knowing every language, so she doesn’t obviously come off as woman from a mythical Greek island… but still, she ain’t local.

Brodie:
Hoylus:I don’t think anyone is going to argue that the costume you link to is a great costume.We’re just not freaking out about it as much because we don’t care about her like we do about Wonder Woman.WW is an icon and deserves to look like it.

Yeah, so we agree.

My point is, although the SS costume is too much I’d prefer it to this – http://www.juicystoreuk.com/images/juicy-couture-tracksuit/juicy-couture-tracksuit-online-pink11.jpg – because at least it goes for something extraordinary.

Superheroes wearing normal clothes is dull.
