About Dark Feminine Costumes

Dark feminine costumes lean on sharp lines and a colder color palette than a typical feminine costume, Jean Grey's Dark Phoenix intensity, Sofina's cold sorceress styling, Roxie Richter's edgy confidence. Nothing here is trying to be approachable.

Makeup does a lot of the work, sharp eyeliner, a darker lip, more structured than soft. A confident, unreadable expression sells the whole thing more than any single piece of clothing.
