I love the over the top style in this costume. I just love the way people play with the Harley Quinn costume. I think it says something about how people love her.
The whole thing about bring a costume from a cartoon or a comic book is that you do not know what the material should be. I think this gives cosplayers the chance to be creative.
I see lots of female Jokers. It is great because they have to be creative to make it work. This is the only male Harley Quinn I have ever seen. I know there is Earth-11 in the DC Multiverse were the genders are reverse. I would love to see she Joker v. Batwoman stories from that world.
Harley Quinn is a really popular character. From costumes, she might be the most popular female characters in all of comics. That is really interesting to me. I wonder why that is.
