I think this is was my favorite costume to make. Thor is my favorite to see in person--it's just cool.
Here's the inspiration for the wonderwoman costume:
Yep, how is a 6 year old supposed to wear this costume...to school...to a church function...out trick-or-treating in 40 degrees??? I took the general concept and made it modest and warmer.
The sparkly skirt is awesome. At the last minute I found the tutu/pettiskirt at Target and grabbed it, it made it more girly and fun.
I found some red shiny stretchy material and made my own pattern following a shirt that fits my girl well. The skirt is a circle skirt sewn on to the red top. The back of the shirt is cut down the middle with velcro added so she can get in and out easily.
I used fusible interfacing to keep the gold as the base, then sewed on the trimming.
I used tennis shoes covered in one of my knee socks, then wrapped it in red duct tape finished with one stripe of white down the middle.
Awesome boots--and their not slippery.
The gold belt goes all around with the sequines. I added the arm bands to the sleeves to help finish off the costume. The crown is just bobby pinned to the wig--my 4 year old has pointed out several times that the crown needs a red star.
