An artist by the name of Michael Lee Lunsford gave himself a design challenge: redesign the costumes of 8 female comic book characters, covering them from foot to neck, and from wrist to wrist without resorting to spray-on body paint, and keeping their iconic looks. It was not a political exercise, he just wanted to challenge his design skills.

The characters are Zatanna, Supergirl, Psylocke, Wonder Woman, Powergirl, Electra, Vampirella (admittedly not a superheroine), and Black Canary. Personally, I really like the looks of Black Canary and Electra. I'm not sold on Wonder Woman wearing khakis. I would have gone with a skirt that is just above knee-length with tights underneath. But either way, it's a fascinating design exercise.
