Superhero and comic-book costume ideas to save

Wonder Woman with cowboy boots

We’re starting off strong with this cute Wonder Woman look. I love the sparkling red top with the blue star-covered skirt.

Those red cowboy boots give it a little twist.

Pair yours with a gold-colored tiara and matching cuffs. Keep the red stars on the tiara and waistband if you want to follow this version.

Supergirl and a red cape

How pretty is this Supergirl costume? The dark blue long-sleeve top has a large chest emblem, with a red skirt and long red cape below.

The pointed gold-colored waistband is my favorite little detail. Let that sit above your skirt to keep the same look.

Batgirl in black and yellow

If you love bright accessories, this Batgirl outfit is for you. The yellow gloves, boots and cape look so cute against the black suit.

Don’t forget the pointed black cowl. The yellow bat emblem and matching belt bring the rest together.

Captain Marvel with a red sash

I am obsessed with this blue and red combination. The gold-colored star sits right in the middle of the chest, with matching trim across the shoulders.

Try a red sash worn at an angle over the blue suit. That long hanging end is worth keeping alongside the red gloves and tall boots.

Black Widow with shorts

Don’t want to wear a full jumpsuit? No problem!

This Black Widow collage pairs a black zip-neck bodysuit with shorts and chunky ankle boots.

Add fingerless gloves and a belt with the red hourglass emblem to follow the idea. The braid pictured alongside the clothes is a pretty hairstyle option too.

Storm with sweeping white bangs

I love this Storm look with the long white hair and side-swept bangs. The black outfit has an X emblem near the shoulder, plus another red-and-black detail on the glove.

The large hoop earrings are such a cute extra touch. You don’t need to add lots more jewelry to follow this version.

Rogue with a yellow tee

If you are looking for a costume built around separates, this one is for you. The Rogue-inspired collage brings together a yellow tee, green mini skirt and cropped brown jacket.

Try the yellow gloves with black lace-up boots. Keep the X details on the shirt and belt so the character references stay part of the outfit.

Phoenix in green and gold

How gorgeous is this green and gold-colored pairing? The Phoenix emblem sits over a black chest panel, with long shining gloves and a matching sash.

The bright red hair makes this version even more striking. I’d keep that color if you’re choosing a wig for the costume.

Gamora with green makeup

The green makeup is the first thing you notice in this Gamora look. A black vest sits over a white top, with dark pants and buckled straps around the hips.

Try dark hair with red ends if you want the same color combination. There’s no cape or mask to add here.

Shuri and oversized gauntlets

If you are looking for a costume with lots of detail, then this one is for you. There’s a tall paneled collar, silver-colored arm bands and a brown wrap at the waist.

I especially love the white dotted face design. The oversized black gauntlets are another detail worth keeping for a Shuri-inspired look.

Tall shimmering insect wings

Who needs a cape when you have wings like these? The long translucent wings stretch above the head and down the back of this black sleeveless outfit.

For a Wasp-inspired version, keep the fingerless gloves and dark green side panels. I’d let the wings be the main accessory.

Spider-Gwen with teal sneakers

This Spider-Gwen costume is so cute. I love the pink web-patterned forearms and the matching lining inside the white hood.

The teal high-top sneakers add another little bit of color. Keep those if you want to follow this look rather than choosing matching black shoes.

Thor with a flowing red cape

Don’t want a full armor-style costume? This Thor-inspired collage gives you a different starting point with a black long-sleeve top and wide-leg pants.

Choose a red or blue waist cincher from the options shown, then add the red cape and a costume hammer. The half-up braids are a lovely finishing touch.

Nightwing with a blue mask

Looking for nightwing costume women ideas with separates instead of a full suit? This collage pairs a black square-neck top and shorts with a large blue bird emblem.

I love the matching blue eye mask. Add tall buckled boots and black gloves if you want to follow the rest of this combination.

Nightwing with ripped tights

This is another Nightwing idea, but it’s a little different from the one above. The zip-front top has a bright blue emblem, while ripped tights sit beneath the black shorts.

The chunky lace-up boots are my favorite part. For your own version, you could keep the black eye mask and skip the extra prop accessories.

Glossy black and cat ears

If you’ve been saving cat women halloween costumes, this is a simple Catwoman-inspired option to try. The glossy black outfit has long sleeves and a lace-edged neckline underneath.

Add a black cat-ear headband like the one here. You could include an eye mask if you want a stronger comic-book reference.

Catwoman with gold-colored details

I am obsessed with the gold-colored accessories in this Catwoman look. The belt and long necklace look so pretty against the shimmering black outfit.

The pointed eye mask, cat ears and long black gloves give you plenty of detail already. I’d keep those before adding anything else.

Black mini and tall boots

Don’t want to go all out with masks and props? No problem!

Try this cat-inspired combination of a glossy black long-sleeve top, mini skirt and tall black boots.

The little cat ears keep things playful. Add a black eye mask if you’d like to take it closer to Catwoman.

Catwoman with buckles and goggles

Last but definitely not least, we have this accessory-filled Catwoman collage. I love the black waist cincher over the glossy suit.

The wide belt and thigh straps add even more detail.

Choose the pointed eye mask from the main look or try the cat-eared hood with goggles shown in the corner. You don’t have to wear every accessory to borrow this idea.
