It's only later, as Diana comes around to accepting Superman's more peaceful way of thinking, that she sheds the armor. The Wonder Woman costume we've come to know signifies the hero of the Amazons, someone who's compassionate, fierce, and avoids battle if possible. The golden armor notes someone who seeks battle out.

In the first film, Diana/Wonder Woman was down and dirty because she was in the trenches. With this, director Patty Jenkins wanted to change the texture and look to give it a glowing '80s feel. We changed the material of her bodice and made it from urethane which can be molded.

She remained steadfast in her decades-long fight for justice, but her costumes ranged from a golden-eagle emblem and skirt to a W logo breastplate and leggings.

Costume informs the audience about a character, their social position, personality, and contributes to the creation of the world of a play. For many actors, putting on their costume is an important part of getting into character before going on stage. It can affect their posture and how they move.

The soundtrack was released on the same day as the film on CD, digital, and vinyl. The score also heavily samples "Is She with You?" theme from the film Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, which was written by Hans Zimmer and Junkie XL.

The superhero suits may look like spandex or leather, but most of the time, they're actually made with stretch cotton. "We can dye and we can print on and give it a texture. Make it look like Kevlar, make it look like something else," Makovsky told CNN.

The armor that Asteria wore -- the Golden Eagle Armor -- was created from the armor of all of the enslaved Amazons who gave it forge that one epic suit. While the others escaped to Themyscira, Asteria apparently died saving them. Diana tells Steve she's looked for Asteria, but only ever found her armor.

Wonder Woman's origin story (from Golden to Bronze Age) relates that she was sculpted from clay by her mother Queen Hippolyta and was given a life as an Amazon, along with superhuman powers as gifts by the Greek gods.

The image invented by psychologist William Marston embodied the strength and power of a new type of women who must rule the world. They're kind, intelligent, and never stop fighting for justice. The visual metaphor of this character was the image of Diana, an Amazon with an eagle as the main symbol.

Costume design is the creation of clothing and accessories for characters in movies and TV shows. Whether it's a well-worn t-shirt or an elaborate period dress, a lot of thought goes into each character's overall look.

The characters in a story will often wear characters that represent their nature. Good characters may wear bright costumes. Evil characters, conversely, may wear dark costumes. Superman -- one of the most iconic superheroes of all time -- has a signature costume consisting of bright red, yellow and blue colors.

Jenkins, explaining why she set the new film in 1984, has said that the eighties represent “mankind at their most extreme and at their best.” (Jenkins also co-wrote the screenplay.) Wonder Woman, endowed by Aphrodite with eternal life, never ages, so Jenkins had a lot of choices for her antagonist.

The most basic designs are produced to denote status, provide protection or modesty, or provide visual interest to a character. Costumes may be for a theater, cinema, musical performance, cosplay, parties, or other events.
