Wonder Woman, photographed by Robbins Studios

I love this beautiful Wonder Woman gown that Robbins Studios spotted at C2E2. The full star-spangled skirt is a great interpretation of Diana’s classic Wondy-undies.

Dual-tone Triangle Sawtooth Blue Dress, by ROMWE

I’m not sure if this heat wave is getting the best of me or what, but I’m pretty sure that this dress is fit for a Rogues Gallery.

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.

Spotted at Forever 21: a Speed Racer dress?

Coordinate with a pair of lucky red socks (or tights, if you prefer) and a Mach 5.

Cartoon Bodycon Dress, $58, Topshop
Pow Boom Print Tube Skirt, $44, Topshop

I love the pastel tones in Topshop’s interpretation* of Lazy Oaf’s Comic Relief Dress, however, I’m not sure if LOL! has ever been implemented as a sound effect in comics @__@

La-Di-Dots Dress, $47.99, Modcloth.

Styling suggestion:

Swap out the brown belt for a gold belt.
Accessorize with gold cuff bracelets and a pair of red shoes.
Treat yourself to an invisible jet.

Wow, I didn’t expect that amount of kind words and sympathy regarding last night’s incident. I am truly touched. Thank you so much. And thank you for conveying so much hugs to my mom and dad XD My mom came in to my room this morning and said something funny - she said she had an insult she wanted to say to that guy but she held it in so hard her stomach hurts the whole night.

Anyways I spent last night (and this morning) finishing this up (nothing better than to spend pent-up anger on artwork!) - my rendition of the new Captain Marvel costume re-imagined as a dress. The new Captain Marvel’s hairstyle is really a bit hard for me to pin down exactly. Is it short? pinned back? Terry Dodson styled it differently from Dexter Soy’s interpretation and I can’t decide between the two so I just sorta make it up as I go along. Thanks for looking!

I love how Captain Marvel’s emblem is translated into an off-shoulder gown. I also love the elegant gradient touch to Carol’s signature sash belt.

Superman cutout-back dress, by Cation Designs

I’m floored by how Cindy of Cation Designs incorporated the cutout-back trend with the iconic Superman shield for her Super-dress. It’s a simple, yet chic update on both party dresses and comic fashion. I’m inspired to create something similar with this stash of Superman fabric that I’ve had for over a year now.
