It's not that I'm saying she needs to wear a white PowerGirl knockoff or a blue/red SuperGirl outfit with the S changed to something else for copyright reasons. But (at least for me), a lot of the appeal of this supergirl genre is that these girls aren't batman-styled tough chicks who talk a lot of trash and act all macho and Rambo-y... they're more just good-natured, exceptionally pretty girls with a generally helpful streak who's powers make dealing with criminals nothing more than a fun game.
Not trying to get all amateur psychologist up in here or be a hater, yo. But I'd really hope that her costume would help show how much fun she's having with the whole thing. Like so what if my bright pink and silver costume is super sexy and girly. I look good and that's the point. And as you can tell, my invulnerability extends to my clothes. So now that this place is all shot up and you're out of bullets, will you please hand over those bags of cash to the policemen cowering behind the wall over there so I don't have to start smacking you around? I don't want to get your blood all over this pretty outfit. Tee hee.
Of course the black one could work very well for the jealous friend who gets powers later! And if you've already put the order for the costume in or started filming already, then forget what I just said. I'm buying this shit the day it comes out either way.

My personal preference for Supergirl style heroines is to have their personality be sweet, innocent, adventurous, and even a little naive. Anyone who saw my 1984 release can probably vouch for that.
In regards to the costume I suppose I would like some more feedback if anyone would like to share their opinion. If black is generally associated with bad girls in the power girl universe then that is something I need to be educated on.
I really like Ms Marvel and Powergirl so this sounded like a fun way to go but you guys tell me!

Interestingly now I think about it the use of black is rather rare after the Golden Age. In GA comics we find a few noteworthy do-gooder heroines in black: Black Cat (Harvey), Black Canary, Miss Fury. After the Silver Age black clad heroines are often a little more ambiguous as to their heroic nature: Black Cat (Marvel), Black Widow. The Babs Gordon Batgirl was briefly in black (plus blue/yelllow), but after her initial guest appearances the body of her costume shifted to grey. Can anyone think of any counter examples?
Personally I'm sure whatever you do with the costume it will be great (judging by your previous work).

The Cassandra Cain version of Batgirl wore black.
Donna Troy (formerly Troia, formerly Wonder Girl, now out of continuity) wore a black costume with sparkly stars on it.

It's probably a matter of perception, we are used to think of supergirls in primary colors, so using black feel a bit off.
The costume was a bit... problematic. Simply put, it merges some of the most problematic parts of PG design (the boob window) with some of the most pproblematic parts of Ms Marvel design (vaguely S/M look). It might work, but it needs to be handled with care.

The costume design is finished and its a smoking hot outfit! I will try and get some promo pics before shooting starts but here is the description:
- Royal Blue Ms Marvel base leotard with a nice sheen
- Powergirl opening in the chest
- Red flowing Cape attached by 2 powergirl style medallions (left/Right) The middle of the cape stops at the small of her back and has long points on each side that flow down to her knees.
- Gold Belt with 3 inch red medallion center
- MS Marvel style Leather mask (I had a red and blue made... not sure which one yet)
- Red and gold heeled boots
- Long red shiny gloves
Once I have more updates I'll let you know!
