Description
Mesdames et Mesieurs - Bonsoir!One of the most frequently asked questions I received lately is how I made the suit for my Stephanie Brown!Batgirl costume.
To be able to provide a detailed and instant answer to future enquiries I decided to prepare this tutorial.
I'm sorry for its crappy layout. I'm not a media designer and this was, like, the best thing I was able to produce with my decent photoshop skills. I really hope you like it though.
In case that you have got further questions this tutorial still can't answer please don't hesitate to ask!

Love it! I (cross)dressed as Batgirl for Halloween the year before this past Halloween, fooled so many people XD But the costume was one of those cheaply made overpriced Party City ones made outta cheap plastic-y fabric that got pretty much ruined after the one day of use, this one is so much cooler

I love how this turned out! I'm totally new to cosplaying and just recently (Halloween in fact) put together a FemRobin costume (that looks a lot like Stephanie Brown. I swear I totally made it up in my head before I even heard of her, though!). For Halloween, I just threw a belt together real quick-like, and it turned out awful. I would love to make a better one out of EVA foam, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how to go about doing that. I know you're possibly too busy to make a tutorial, but is there somewhere you found information on how to do it? I've tried looking, and haven't found anything that really helped me at all.
Thanks!

I know this is for Stephanie's outfit, but could you give me some tips on making Barbara's cape, boots, gloves, and belt? I apologize for asking, but I'm going to a con this December, and I've looked absolutely everywhere, but I can't seem to find help on those.

Aah, sorry for my late reply. Uh, I have to admit that gloves and boots are the most difficult aspects of a costume. If you aren't an experienced costume maker I would recommend you to buy them. As for the cape: Why don't you look for cape tutorials or patterns on google? There are plenty of tutorials out there.

That's okay c:
Do you happen to know where I could buy the gloves and boots? I was also wondering about the bodysuit as well

Thank you so much. Its very rare for excellent cosplayers such as yourself give tutorials for their cosplays. I'm going to attempt to make this for Comic-con 2014!

Hi! So I did make my Batgirl costume and I really owe this tutorial so much for the help! So thank you! However, I am confused about the cape! I can't figure out how to make it! Any suggestions??
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hey! 
I made the cape in a trapez-shape and attached it to the suit with push buttons. Then I put the collar on which I wear on top of suit and cape.

Awesome tutorial, planning on using it!
One question though, did you just buy a catsuit and then wear it backwards? The zip is usually down the front so I'm just curious if you just wore it with the zip going down your back!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you!
And no - I bought a catsuit with a zipper in the back. Suits like these actually do exist.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh wow, I'll need to look out for some; the only ones I ever see always have the zipper on the front!
Thank you so much for the response by the way, you've got the best SB Batgirl cosplay!

Nope.
Thank you very much! If you need more advice on the costume - don't hesitate to ask.

If I may, I know this is old-ish... but what material was your catsuit? ^.^ Pleather? Rubber?

It was made from stretch pleather!

Thank you so much for posting this! It was incredibly helpful when I made my own Batgirl-Steph costume. I don't think I could have gotten the side panels so neat without this tutorial for guidance.

I don't think I'll find enough time to prepare tutorials for the belt and the cape soon. Sorry.

I was wondering where you got your catsuit, what it's made of, and how much it cost.

Where did you get the cowl? Did you make it, commission someone for it?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I commissioned Shawn Reevez, a propmaker from the US. You can find a link to his homepage in the comments below my deviations.

What a great tutorial- I'm planning on using this to make my own Batgirl cosplay!
Do you have any recommendations on where to buy the bi-elastic lycra and interfacing at a reasonable price? Thank you so much!

I bought the lycra in an German Online-Store. Unfortunately I don't know where to purchase cheap fabric in the US.

Hi, I'm new to this whole cosplaying adventure! I actually just made my own Wonder Woman costume by hand which was a lot of fun but a lot of work to. I actually just posted pictures of it on my deviant page.
Anyway, I'm planning on going to a convention in the summer time and it's two days so I think for one of the days I want to dress up as batgirl and I'm just curious how did you do the gloves?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha, to be honest I didn't make the gloves myself. I simply baught them and added the gauntlets. xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I was thinking you made them and all I could think was that that would be a brutal task. Good to know thank you.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, I did make gloves before, but not these ones. But it is indeed a very difficult task.
