That shiny green top is definitely not as sexy irl

Yeah I've seen several IRL actresses portraying classic Lara Croft as wearing like a polished vinyl top for some reason?

It's like older superhero movies with spandex. No imagination.

Well I mean, Superman's costume is pretty unusual. People don't dress like that, so when you turn to your wardrobe department and say "make me a Superman costume" there's some head scratching.

Lara Croft wears a tank top, shorts, a pistol belt, white socks and boots. Extremely easy cosplay to source, but so many folks interpret Lara's shirt as some stiff glossy plastic, I guess because that pre-rendered cover art of the first game looked shinier than cloth?

Superman wore a carnival strongman's outfit. That's why he's got the trunks. They just added a full sleeve shirt and leggings to it.

But yeah all you need for Lara Croft is a tank top, short shorts, and some belts.
