The movie went in an entirely new visual direction, while maintaining fidelity to the characters' personalities. One such villainess who looked incredibly different from her origins was none other than Harley Quinn, and as it turns out: the filmmakers based much of her look off of legendary rock star Debbie Harry.

Grab a white formal dress (check your local resale shop!) and customize it with some messy blue and red dye. Pair it with a red, white, and blue bouquet and dyed space buns for an unexpected Harley look.

Originally made for television and slowly evolved into her own powerful character, Harley's original look was a now iconic costume that featured her in a one piece red and black Harlequin costume with accompanying head band.

Dressing as Harley is the perfect Halloween costume for women who are heading out solo, but since she has so many different looks, you can easily find inspiration for a best friend ensemble or group getup.

designer Erin Benach They were brought to life by costume designer Erin Benach, who told Insider the inspiration behind some of Quinn's biggest looks in the movie. The gold jumpsuit took the longest to get just right and the Marilyn Monroe look was almost completely different.

And it's pretty steamy. We get to see Harley Quinn lifting her shirt to show off her colorful bra.

Harley Quinn's abilities include expert gymnastic skills, proficiency in weapons and hand-to-hand combat, complete unpredictability, immunity to toxins, and enhanced strength, agility, and durability. Quinn often wields clown-themed gag weapons, with an oversized mallet being her signature weapon.

She is easily one of the best written and relatable villains in the Batman Rogues gallery. She started out as Harleen Quinzel, the psychiatrist of the Joker. She was the good girl that got her good nature, patience and compassion used against her by the ultimate bad boy.

Harley Quinn has a distinctive look. Whether she's wearing a jester costume or not, she's regularly adorned with the symbol of a playing card. One card in particular, actually: the three of diamonds.

Instead of her iconic jester outfit or her more modern roller-derby look, the film gave Harley a revealing look consisting of hotpants, fishnets, heeled sneakers and a shirt that read "Daddy's Li'l Monster".

red and black Harley Quinn's classic red and black costume has become an iconic look that audiences best associate with the newly redeemed anti-heroine.

Harley definitely got some help from the popularity of the villain she was paired with, as the Joker continues to be one of the most iconic characters in all media. Quinn's combination of cheery energy with a capacity for extreme violence makes her the perfect partner-in-crime for Batman's greatest foe.

Harleen Quinzel was a psychologist at Arkham Asylum, and after meeting the Joker, she became his frequent accomplice, took on the name Harley Quinn, and got into an abusive codependent relationship with him. She eventually splits up with him, and becomes a solo criminal, forming a criminal gang called the Quinntets.

Sex, drugs, blood, and guts galore, Harley Quinn is an action-packed adult comedy that is not suitable for teens. Although the series is well-paced and gives an interesting perspective on the consequences of abusive relationships, it doesn't make up for the crass humor and violent nature of its characters.

For the final installment in the Batman: Arkham video game trilogy, Harley changed things up with a skirt, red and black arm sleeves and red and black leggings.

Though at first she seems sweet, giddy, and girlish, that's just one side of Harley's personality. She's also vicious, violent, and a fierce fighter. There's little rhyme or reason to Harley's moods, which makes her impossible to predict.
