Thank God they went with the battle skirt. Hopefully we get a cleaner image soon.

Are those wedges on the boots? She looks like an old hollywood cliché, the hot warrior babe who's supposed to be badass but isn't convincingly so because ultimately the purpose of her existence within the movie is to titillate the male viewership.
What is every shirtless scene in most male superhero films? Please put your insane prejudice aside for a change. Response towards this costume has been positive from both male and females.
@mpfly88: disagree with the false equivalent, male counterexample, but I agree with everything else. The women that I know think it's cool to be jumping around, kicking ass while wearing pumps. It's tasteful, badass, and stays true to the classic costume. If the costume had been overly sexualized, I would have agreed with the criticism.
@mpfly88: I'm prejudiced lol get a grip of reality, she's wearing wedges ! I can show you what a strong woman really looks like and compare that with this photo of Gal Gadot. Conversely, Cavill who was a big man to begin with had to put on more volume. This is nowhere near what I would've liked to see but I didn't think they were gonna nail this look
@archizoom: right because the stiletto boots of her original incarnation were so sensible. Get over it ... Gal Gadot looks stunning and they put the outfit together in a way that stays relatively classic for WW while still getting across the idea of armor. This looks amazing ... You just love to hunt for the negative.
@archizoom: wedges, but shirtless men are put into Marvel movies for women. Whedon already admitted it, the male power fantasy doesn't extend to a shirtless man.
@superguy1591: Marvel's heroes didn't fight crime shirtless as far as I know though they could, the absence of a shirt doesn't incapacitate them but women can't run in heels. Whereas society exalts a man's strength, it condemns women's. Men are encouraged to be strong and strive towards gaining power whereas women are taught to manipulate sex role expectations to the detriment of their own self-betterment. Anyone with half a brain can see they put beauty above strength.
