The Mattie Franklin (Spider-Woman III) Costume history.
Despite being Spider-Woman for little more than a year, Mattie Franklin has worn a lot of costumes. Her first costume was based on the classic Spider-Man costume, minus the web designs and with the addition of a ponytail. After a villain stole her powers, Mattie retired the costume, and when she got them back she briefly wore a makeshift costume of a navy-and-green leotard with a domino mask and high-heeled boots. Afterwards, Mattie designed a blue-and-red costume with a spider-symbol (similar to the one on Spider-Man's back) and large web wings. Shortly after she altered that costume, changing the blue to black, shortening the gloves and adding spider-patterned shorts. Still not satisfied, she removed the web wings and then added a red cowl with a black spider emblem, a larger spider-emblem on the chest, and black-and-red gloves and leggings. When the woman who stole her powers returned, Mattie showed up to fight her wearing a purple one-piece bathing suit with a black spider emblem, with matching mask, gloves, and high-heeled ankle boots. Thankfully Mattie retired that costume quickly and designed a new navy-and-silver costume with a silver spider-symbol and web wings. Finally, Mattie came up with a Spider-Woman costume would keep with for the rest of her career, a black-and-red costume with a very stylized spider-symbol and shorter, scallop-edged web wings.
