Avengers Gowns: Iron Man & The Hulk, by kelseymichele
Although the Hulk look is quite glam and pretty, the Iron Man ensemble steals the show in this redesign (unsurprisingly). The structured cocktail dress and the arc reactor pendant are audacious, yet beautiful interpretations of Iron Man’s showboating armor. While I’m not the biggest fan of strappy gladiator footwear, I do approve of the chunky wedged heel with this ensemble.
Hey guys I’ve been in a bit of a rut when it’s coming to closetcosplay inspi sketch stuff! I’m sorry OTL.
I’ve been trying to plan out a new portfolio for college and other than that lately I’ve been just wanting to draw cute shit.
I hope everyone is well ^O^. Here’s a silly gif of cutesy ladeh loki winkin’.
Wink wink.
This is too cute - I love the combination of textures in this look.

The world needs more lolita skirts with motifs of cityscapes and collateral damage.

Both of these looks are really cute, but I love how Iron Man’s arc reactor is translated into a chic scarf clip.
Extra-long gloves + hip-slinging X-belt + mod bob with Rogue highlights = A+Mod Rogue.
New Iron Fist Clothing Collection Features Cheeky Superheroine Apparel
Just in time for convention season, Iron Fist Clothing (not to be confused with Iron Fist, the Marvel superhero) has unveiled a Spring/Summer capsule collection entitled Super Bitches that features pin-up styled artwork of superheroines and villains. Known for their eclectic catalogue of monster-themed high heels and glam collaborations with RuPaul’s Drag Race, the LA-based clothing label collaborated with artist Lora Zombie to create this cheeky comic-inspired print to showcase fierce and empowered super-women in a shared feminine and feminist light.
Check out the entire Super Bitches collection on ComicsAlliance!

I’m making TOTE BAGS for TCAF and MeCAF this year! Holy crow!!!
I’m hoping to have a similar design available through Topatoco sometime in the near future, but I’m having these done by a local company (managed by a former employee of my comic shop, which is kind of perfect) so they’ll be real on time for May!
COOL
This purse is a must-buy for 2013 ♡
When the new X-men lineup was announced I, of course, thought it was amazing and refreshing and about damn time. It wasn’t until a friend of mine brought the new team up again that the idea for another X-fashion developed. It really was a “duh” moment for me - they’re ripe for a fashion piece, and not just because they’re women but because they are some of THE biggest female names of the X-men. So I went for it. Wanted something a little more dynamic than X-fashions of the past. My main thought going in was more pants, less dresses and frippery. Of course there’s still bling and heels - you can’t take away all the fun - but I wanted fashion that was a bit more street, more real, a little more badass.
Rachel is grunge. Love her jacket, not so happy with her shirt.
Psylocke is NYC fashionista tomboy. Dip dyed hair (so trendy) and a butterfly print blouse.
I’m really happy with Kitty’s dragon t-shirt and bad ass heels. Had to get a shoe in there somewhere, people.
Storm is my 80s executive realness. Her earring is fashioned after the one Willi Ninja bought (he has the receipt) in Paris is Burning.
My southern belle is in a loud print and hose - she’s the only one in a dress. I wanted her in printed leggings but she was already such a patterned mess I decided against it.
And Jubes is just all over the place. Bikini and hot pants and a bedazzled jacket.
The original will be going up in the store as soon as tomorrow. Prints as well - in TWO sizes :) Hope you guys like it, let me know what you think!
This is what perfection looks like.
A+, Kevin Wada.

Top off this coordinate with a pair of cute pink-framed glasses, and you have a perfect mutant lolita look for the spring.
