If you like cute dresses and the Avengers as much as me, you’re probably drooling over your keyboard at these designs from Robinade right now. I love how they are stylish and also manage to capture the essence of each superhero’s costume. To me, they are the very definition of geek chic. I’d love to find someone more talented and persistent than myself to bring these designs to life. I’d wear every one of them. They’d also be fantastic for a group cosplay.
Check out the rest of the Avengers designs after the break.

If you want to temper your feminine appearance with the nunchuck-wielding ass-kickery of Bruce Lee, this incredibly bizarre dress should do the trick. It will surely get you noticed as well – especially if you happen to be sporting the mannequin facial expression and Tinky Winky hairstyle seen above.

Etsy seller “Alienphant” is offering this Legend of Zelda dress which features the Hylian shield and a light golden yellow fabric with the triforce symbol in a repeating pyramid pattern. The back of the dress laces up like a corset and there is an invisible zipper on the side – however, since there is no stretch, you may want to inquire about custom sizes if you don’t fit the 34″ bust 27″ waist of this example – but act fast, as this dress is a limited run.

Something about Star Wars translates to cute and frilly. You’ve probably seen the R2-D2 ballerina outfit complete with a tutu, and now there’s a delightfully adorable Darth Vader tutu dress to go with it. This design incorporates many textures including tulle, felt, rhinestones/crystals, and what appears to be glitter. I think it would pair nicely with a Vader helmet and some black shoes that lace all the way to the knee.
Now I’ve talked myself into wanting it. Darnit.

After a little bit of searching we discovered that the awesome Wonder Woman t-shirt dress in this image is sold through Primark in the U.K. Unfortunately, it doesn’t appear to be online, with the exception of a this used version on Ebay.
At any rate, we love the way model Midori Ishihara wears this ensemble.

I can’t say that I’ve ever considered a femme version of Spider-Man’s red and blue costume, but this dress makes me feel like I should have. It’s made to order from lycra/spandex and mesh – primary materials in all superhero costumes. It’s the type of dress that will definitely turn heads as much for the unique design as the bright blue spandex. Given that, I’m not sure I would personally wear it out and about, but it would be perfect for a convention. Don’t ask me where you’d keep the web shooters though.

The 3D Ribs Dress is another awesomely out there design from Black Milk that features a skeleton theme in eye-popping 3D. A free pair of glasses is also included. It’s the most slimming garment you could possibly wear.
