Bernadette Bentley looks gorgeous cosplaying as her burlesque version of the Amazon Princess Diana of Themyscira aka Wonder Woman! You may remember her from her incredible Xena: Warrior Princess cosplay. She nailed this cosplay as well, her burlesque inspired take on Wondy is absolutely fabulous! The new design is just beautiful and the bustle is just perfect for the showgirl theme. The costume was created by Castle Corsetry and she added all the glittery stoning details herself. Here’s what she had to say:
“The idea for my Burlesque Wonder Woman cosplay came from my love of such a strong female character and a new found obsession with rhinestoning! This mashup cosplay is so much fun and truly the sparkliest outfit I own with over 40 hours of creating the Bernadazzled armor.”
Loudmouth Man: “You want the truth? You swing that sword with a smile and you scare normal people. And you dress like a whore.”
Wonder Woman: “This is not your truth. The Lasso compels you. Now tell us your truth.”
Loudmouth Man: “I cross-dress in a Wonder Woman costume outfit. It makes me feel powerful.”
Wonder Woman: “Embrace your truth, my friend. My outfit makes me feel powerful too.”
