Cosplay Showcase: Gladzy Kei's Wonder Woman!


I'll always attribute Gladzy Kei as a designer/creator of some of the most badass characters and designs. Whether it's taking an already established character or mashing different styles/fandoms together, Gladzy really has tremendous craft and I absolutely love when she posts progress pictures as well. The cosplay I have today in combination with the end result photos had me fangirling like all hell broke loose. 1/3 of the holy DC Comics Trinity, Gladzy portrayed Wonder Woman as one of her latest cosplays. Specifically, she went with the style as seen in the DC films as played by Gal Gadot. I have to say, Gladzy even looks like her in the pictures so it adds a sense of authenticity/realness to everything. This Wonder Woman is pretty much true to the classic design with the breast plate and skirt. Along with the knee high boots. Arm bands can be seen in the upper portion of her arm as well as gauntlets along her wrist.

The coloring matches up with Zack Snyder's muted world. Though in comparison to the Batman and Superman, Diana is of a much more brighter color scheme. The top portion of Gladzy's cosplay looks to be a corset of sorts wrapped in some material to give off that armor like look. I'm willing to say it's Black Worbla. The skirt is of a blue shade with gold trim along the bottom edge. The belt is designed along the lines of the characters logo and matches up with the top part of the chest piece.

Gladzy went all out in creating Wonder Woman's full arsenal. Sword, shield, and the lasso of truth along her hip. The gauntlets/bracers are also weaponized to deflect bullets (no not real bullets) in the comics. Behind the shield you can see an almost wooden like finish to it. Gladzy is also adorned with the signature tiara, plus the black wig is absolutely beautiful here. The leg armor/boots look like they can do some serious damage/blocking if that portion of her body got involved in whatever fight she's in. Gold runs down the middle with its sides painted red along with lines indented everywhere.

The sword is also covered in red blood spatters to really show that sense of wear and tear. The outfit as a whole is weathered in some areas which is just mind blowingly epic. CAN WE ALSO TALK ABOUT HOW THE PHOTOS ARE PERFECT?!?! Gladzy resides in Canada and I'm surprised locations like that exist over there 0-0. Photographer Jessica Roh did an incredible job capturing the mountain like scenery. Seriously these are all movie poster worthy for Wonder Woman's upcoming solo movie. LOOK AT THEM!!
