Jim Balent brought back the violet catsuit in the 90s, and today we’re seeing it in this purrrrfect purple-suit Catwoman cosplay!
Catwoman is one of the most iconic comic antiheroes of all time. She’s known for her sass and swagger, and for her insatiable love for crime. She has been through many decades and artistic depictions of her charades. Through all her costume iterations on the pages, there are a few that stand out the most. Among those is the purple-suit Catwoman. Today, we’re featuring a dynamo cosplayer who recreated this look to cinematic perfection.
CutiepieSensei is a cosplayer particularly well-known for her comic characters. She is a master of fit and form, with some really vivid takes on the cosplays she makes. The textures and colors she uses to create this vivid version of Selena Kyle are spot-on to the comics, but the lines and artistic license CutiepieSensei uses give it a great modern flare. She even has some great-looking whip maneuvers as well! This photo set by CutiepieSensei and photographer The World of Gwendana is absolutely gorgeous. We hope you love this purple-suit Catwoman cosplay!

“They may suspect me, but they’ll never see me. They may chase me, but they’ll never catch me. Never, never, ever catch me.”

“I’m a thief–and stealing is what I do. Not so much for the prize or the possession or even the profit…but for the art of doing it…because I can…and because I’m good.”
“You are part of the night, just like me. We’re not afraid of the dark–we come alive in it…we’re thrilled by it.”
“That’s part of the rule. Never quit. Never let them see you’re afraid. Above all — never let them see you’re hurt. Never let them see you cry. Never.”
“The East End. My soul is tied to this place now. Because it’s cost me so much in blood and tears. But this is where the Catwoman was born. And if it has to be, this is where she’ll die.”
(To Harley Quinn) “Your ex-lover, a murderous psychopath who has repeatedly made our lives a living hell, nearly burns my new home to the ground and all you can say is ‘gross’?!”

“We are not in control. Every now and then life likes to reiterate that little point. Some people find such reminders disconcerting. They spend their lives in breathless pursuit of meaningless goals, hoping to forget everything they know about their own mortality. Some people anchor themselves to something larger. Religion, Art, Justice. Anything they deem significant in a life that’s not. We are not in control. If we were, surely we’d know better than to care about anything.”
