A Little Barda, by ~cleverchristie.

This is the cutest restyling I’ve ever seen of Barda Free. I love how Barda’s beaded headdress is replaced by a golden yellow beaded headband and how her costume is seamlessly transformed into a minimalist, yet bold, jumper, featuring a the trompe-l’œil belt. The golden yellow jumper coordinates beautifully with the rich royal blue tones of the long-sleeved top and the thigh-high stockings. I’d love to see how this artist would redesign Mr. Miracle!
