Wonder Woman - DC Universe
Character: Wonder Woman. DC Comics superheroine
[created by American psychologist and writer William Moulton Marston]
She first appeared in All Star Comics #8 (1941). The Wonder Woman title has been published by DC Comics almost continuously. Her depiction as a heroine fighting for justice, love, peace, and sexual equality has also led to Wonder Woman being widely considered a feminist icon.
She is a warrior princess of the Amazons, & known in her homeland as Diana of Themyscira.
Wonder Woman's costume has varied over time, although almost all of her costume incarnations have retained some form of breastplate, tiara, bracelets and her signature star symbols. She has appeared in a variety of shows – most notably Super Friends, and Justice League.
I wanted to make this because I was all set up to do a Wonder Woman & Superman [Justice League group] but it didn't quite work out by the deadline. So, we'll try again at the next con. This costume consists of a red corset with gold trim, blue pants, gold belt, tiara, red/white boots, and silver bracers. I opted for pants instead of the star panties because I couldn't find the perfect fabric for it.
This costume was surprisingly easy to make. It was all fabric [no props] :) The boot covers took the most time, but everything came together in a day [the secret is lots of fabric glue]. :) I went back a year later when I finally found some star spandex fabric for the bottoms.
