Basics of Wonder Woman Costumes
To pull off this sexy superhero look, you must carry yourself with a confident air. Wonder Woman was no shrinking violet! Remember, she was an Amazon queen, so you must stand tall and walk proud. If you believe you can pull off the attitude, you're ready to learn about the components of a Wonder Woman costume.
Red Top
Although the Amazon queen herself wore a one-piece leotard or minidress, you might have better luck purchasing the items separately. Look for a red bustier or corset. Spaghetti straps, strapless tops, and halter tops are best, but any cleavage-baring red top would be appropriate. For an authentic look, the top should be skintight.
Star-Studded Bottoms
The costume requires blue bottoms with white star accents. If you can find a bikini bottom in the appropriate design, that would work well. A blue mini skirt is another great option. If you are considered about tummy bulges or lovehandles, the skirt is more forgiving.
Gold Belt
You will also need a large, shiny gold belt to complete the look. Many costume shops sell appropriate belts. If you cannot find the right belt, you can purchase shiny material and cut out a simple belt shape. Gold lame' is especially appropriate for this purpose. Attach it to your bustier with a few stitches for easy removal later.
Cape
The red cape is one of the signatures of Wonder Woman costumes. Luckily, the cape looks exactly like many other superhero capes! You can buy a generic red cape at costume stores, toy stores, and online retailers. Alternately, you can buy a large piece of lycra and make a simple cape.
Boots
Wonder Woman wore very sexy thigh high red and white boots. If you cannot find red and white boots, boots of either red or white would look great. If you choose not to spend the money on new boots, platform shoes would be another hot choice.
