Sometimes I think we’re long lost cousins! Despite growing up in the 2000’s I never really watched any live-action shows from the time, and fashion after the 90’s feels gross to me too. I’ve been thinking about Wonder Woman’s outfit for years since I used to own some of the old comics (a reprint); I always designed culottes for my heroines, whether superhero or fantasy since they’re so practical and beautiful! I’m so excited to see what designs you come up with!

I agree! (Actually, I've got a lot of third cousins, so there's every chance we are.) And yes, this is going to be so fun. :)

As someone who loves deep-diving into the aesthetics of her characters, this was super fun to see! I love it when authors really take the time to figure out what their characters would wear.

(Also I still stand by Uggs. My feet were always freezing and they were heavenly to wear in the winter. The rest of those styles, we can totally pretend never existed. 😂)

Oh, glad you liked it! This definitely got more interest than I thought it would. I’m excited about getting it figured out.

(And that’s fair! 😂 I grew up in the Deep South with a summer heat index well over 100, so the Soffe shorts/rolled tshirt/Uggs combo was intensely mockable. They don’t look that bad if you’re actually cold.)

Oh gosh, yeah, shorts and Uggs were always a ridiculous combo!

These visuals are amazing, and the trip down memory lane was the cringey burst of nostalgia I didn't know I needed.
