How do I make claw gloves?

Get fake nails and paint them black. Then superglue the nails on long or short black gloves.

Question

Should I wear contact lenses or fake fangs?

Catwoman does not have fangs. If you want, you can wear contact lenses, but you don't have to.

Question

Can I do something else instead of using fake nails?

Community Answer

If you took some Styrofoam, painted it black, and shaped it like claws to attach to the gloves, it should work very well!

Question

Any ideas for an "appropriate" Catwoman costume (no tight leggings)?

Community Answer

Try dark jeans or sweatpants, and a black sweatshirt. As long as you've got the proper mask with the ears and you're wearing all black, people will know who you are.

You certainly can! As long as you can make a Catwoman costume that fits you, you can add your own style and gender-swap Catwoman.

Not really, but if you like fake nails you can wear them. Paint your really long nails black.

What can I do if I don't have black gloves?

Neko uwu

Community Answer

You can buy black gloves or not use gloves. Cosplay doesn't need to be perfect.

Question

Which one would you suggest is more child friendly?

ImTryingMyBestest

Community Answer

Anne Hathaway's has more coverage and is the least likely to be sexualized, so perhaps that would be the best choice.

Question

What kind of shoes or boots should I use?

Quinn

Community Answer

Use black flats or boots. When in cosplay, you might have to walk around for prolonged periods of time, so try not to use things with more than a 1-2 inch heel.
