Classic Wonder Woman Costume
Classic styling. Timeless character details. No one's going to be confused about your backstory when you show up to the soiree in this number. Wonder Woman's actual story may be just a little more muddled (Just where is Paradise Island, anyways?) but when you make your grand entrance, there's only going to be one thought on the mind of your fellow party goers: "Oh. She's here to save the day!" Comic book styling that holds up in any medium is what defines this look as the premiere adult Wonder Woman costume. The corset and skirt styling is simply stunning, and when your cape is fluttering in the wind, it's sure to instill reassurance into any would-be victims of any evil-doers. Choose this style to truly transform into the iconic hero of lore.
Modern Wonder Woman Costume
Are you ready for a modern take on a classic? DC Comics shifted our favorite hero to an alternate timeline in 2010, and she became a tough orphan raised on the streets of New York City working to restore a timeline that she doesn't even remember herself. As such, she has a streets-ready look, with pants and a slick jacket. (Don't fret about the big costume change too much; she still has her gold bracelets!) She might have shifted back to a more classic look in 2011's The New 52, but for us, this is the modern look of Wonder Woman. This costume captures the denim-ey look (in polyester so it's still easy to wear) and it features the slick bolero style jacket, along with the signature headband and gauntlets that you'd always expect to see on Diana Prince. Choose this costume for an updated take on the Amazing Amazon!
Dawn of Justice Wonder Woman Costume
That scene. Yeah, you know the one we're talking about. When the drums and guitar riff of the Wonder Woman theme get loud in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and she shows up in full battle mode—not just to make a cameo, nah, she shows up to straight up lay the smack down. She appears in a stunning Greek armor inspired costume ready to do battle, and instantly gains millions of new fans worldwide as we finally—FINALLY!—get to see our beloved character on screen in film. You can capture the hit look with this Gal Gadot Wonder Woman costume. It captures all the signature styling of her movie look, with no trip to Themyscira required. Complete the look with one of our women's wigs, and you'll feel ready to show Mr. Batman and Mr. Superman exactly what's up.
Wonder Woman Dress
Wonder Woman is all about looking fierce and fantastic. But that's not to say she doesn't know how to glam it up every once in a while. (Like her standard duds aren't glam enough!?) This fantastic long dress costume adds an elegant skirt to the traditional getup, and it is as ready for battling brawlers as it is for dancing the Foxtrot out at the big ball. A polyfoam backed bodice will let you feel like fighting it out, but the luxe star spangled knee length skirt will have you feeling fantastic. Meet the other Justice Leaguers at the party, or hit the town with the other sexy superheroes for a girl's night out. Whether you're kickin butt or dancing up a storm, by the goddess

Golden Lasso
Wonder Woman and her golden lasso basically go together like peas and carrots. Sure you can have one without the other, but they are just SO much better together!

Wonder Woman Shield
