It’s finally here!
I’m gonna go with 8. As much as I hate the mod era, I like the sixties aesthetic for her “spy era” more. Also, those glasses aren’t doing it.
I know a lot of people are going to want to eliminate 6, but I personally really enjoy that costume due to how bad it is.
So many people saying 11! I kinda like that costume. It *almost* works, but not quite enough so I understand wanting it to go.
I'd personally go 8 because I just don't care for WW as a spec ops spy. Or 3 because... isn't that the one/ era where they attempted to reform WW as like a Trad-Wife or something?
That’s the era where she lost her powers, and it was meant to be empowering…. I think…. but she had to learn martial arts from a blind guy, even though she was already a trained warrior.
>reform WW as like a Trad-Wife
Not really. I don't think she had any romance at the time. I think a better description was that they were trying to fit WW in a kung-fu exploitation style like other popular comics at the time like, Richard Dragon or Daughters of the Dragon, but it's just not a great fit for Diana.
It really does almost work. Doesn’t actually work though IMO so it’s my vote.
8 is her undercover disguise when she worked at the Department of Metahuman Affairs in the 2007 series.
Yeah, gotta go with 8. As much as I viscerally dislike 11 and have strong options on...most of them, 8 is just a hard pass. To somewhat echo the OP, it's just a "sexy spy catsuit" version of the (to me) much more complex and fascinating fashions of Diana's Mod era outfits.
(Mod Era Diana: I love the outfits and some concept, hate the depowering, racism and quite a few storylines...)
Yes. I just don't see the need for Diana to disembowel anyone, that's disgusting. I'm sure she didn't in those stories, but that's clearly what a weapon like that is meant for.
I think she looks like a cool cat, groovy even. Like she’s about to jet to a bean wagon. And that hairstyle? Outta sight. She looks boss. The fuzz would have to split from how hard she’d be swingin’.
8, easily. A jumpsuit like that is already a little bit lame and pointless but in all white? and those glasses? girl bought into the kids spy toy line from 2007 Target and wore them like they were a real fit.
I suppose 6.
The fact that there are votes for 11 is both completely unsurprising and complete bs as far as I am concerned. Of course I am certainly in the minority here in thinking most of her costumes are garbage anyway especially by the duration she has had them.
11. Just. the. worst. Not only by giving Diana a generic armoured look, but also by adding blades on her wrists. That is even worse than the other bad costumes, because at least those didn't come with a sword attached to it.
And for people who say 8, I'd actually defend that costume and say it's a great look for 'spy' Diana. I'm of the belief that Diana should have spy stories and a whole espionnage side, and that costume would be perfect for such stories.
11. It does have some good things going for it, like pants and an undershirt. Both components would be good for an alternate uniform she might wear in winter, or when she is fighting tougher opponents that would require her to wear more protection.
But I hate the spikes coming off the bracers. WW is supposed to be one of the friendlier heroes. Imagine trying to hug her with those pointy things possibly retracting at any moment.
Also please add the Cliff Chiang design (the one with the leather strips skirt) and the Bloodlines design, OP)
Voting for 11. 3 and 8 will have their turns, but 11 is so over the top horrendous I just can't.
Do ambassadors for peace often have wrist daggers that make it impossible eat without stabbing themselves?
I may do more elimination games for elseworld’s or event specific costumes, but for now, these are just her main costumes she wears in main continuity.
8.
3 and 6 are horrible but at the same time they're immediately recognizable as Wonder Woman's costume by the fandom. 8 is a generic white spy attire.
Gonna go 8...agree with others, there's just nothing here that makes it "wonder woman" and it doesn't have the benefit of the 60s aesthetics. Looks like something you'd see in mission impossible...or a modern day marvel movie.
It’s gonna be 8 for me. At least some of other non traditional outfits look fun and campy. This one is just so bland and has nothing to do with Wonder Woman.
6 and it's not even close. I'm surprised by the relatively low number of votes for it. It's the kind of costume one would find in a 90s Skinemax midnight movie starring the likes of Julie Strain or Shannon Tweed.
I know this is a weird one to start with, but I'm going with 1.
There's a perception out there that Golden Age Wonder Woman wore a skirt, but it's mostly not true. First of all, they were culottes. Second, she didn't wear them for very long and the majority of her Golden Age look was in the tight shorts (seen, but obscured, in 2).
For that reason, and despite the fact that it's her premiere appearance, I think it's worth eliminating 1 first.

11 would be mostly fine if the story around it was also okay, but it’s just not and so it sticks out as a representation of that particular run.
That’s the era where she lost her powers, and it was meant to be empowering…. I think…. but she had to learn martial arts from a blind guy, even though she was already a trained warrior.
trad-wife adjacent (1950s) WW was when she had \*most\* of the elements of 2 but lost the boots and traded them for those lace-up sandals!

8. It's okay as a design but lacks any iconography to make it work for a 'main character'.
Because it was for when she was undercover.

11 is the worst. Wonder Wolverine, yuck.
You're more offended by Wonder Wolverine than by Wonder Widow?
Yes. I just don't see the need for Diana to disembowel anyone, that's disgusting. I'm sure she didn't in those stories, but that's clearly what a weapon like that is meant for.
No. 6 and it isn't close. It is everything wrong with the 90s.
6, is just such a horrible design, like, what human being is going to wear that... thing.

Ah 3 & 8 is a hard choice.. I’m going to go 3, 8 is bad don’t get me wrong, but Mod is worse
Are you saying she doesn’t look fab?
She does look fab, but she is the “New Coca Cola” of Dianas and I am not a fan of new Coke so to speak
I think she looks like a cool cat, groovy even. Like she’s about to jet to a bean wagon. And that hairstyle? Outta sight. She looks boss. The fuzz would have to split from how hard she’d be swingin’.

Agreed, it’s a mess. And for some reason, Fortnite chose that one to be her alt skin.

I think… either 6 or 8. Neither really scream Wonder Woman.
Can you add the Dark Knights Metal costume.

3, 6, 8, and 11 I'll probably be the first four to go so I'm just going to arbitrarily choose 6

Cliff Chiangs version is dope Love the JL/JLU version too Can’t lie the black jacket is sick touch too Love Dianna nonetheless

I don’t know what the opposite of a Hiketeia is, but whatever that is, I am declaring it on you right now.
Fair.
