Vixen Costume History

Mari Jiwe McCabe has worn quite a few costumes as the mystic totem wielding Vixen. Her first costume was a blue leotard with a gold fox mask and matching gold gloves and boots. As she began to master her totem's animal ability mimicking magic as a member of the Justice League, Vixen changed her look to a tawny orange sleeveless bodysuit with matching gloves and a red belt and  short red boots (and gave herself a fox-eared haircut). She later decided to cut her hair and switch to a black leather bodysuit with purple accents and a purple utility belt. Vixen then simplified that look by making the entire outfit dark purple and added a gold belt. When Vixen joined super-team called the Ultramarine Corp, she donned a sleek black-and-orange uniform. As a member of the vigilante team, the Birds of Prey, Vixen put her hair in long braids and wore a sleek purple bodysuit with gold accents and matching jewelry. When she rejoined the Justice League, Vixen wore a orange bodysuit that was a sleeker version of her second costume with silver accents.

After the events of Flashpoint created the New 52 continuity, Vixen became the member of the Justice League International. Her costume was a yellow bodysuit with orange tiger stripes along the sides, short yellow gloves, a silver belt, and gold jewelry. And when she was asked to join the new Justice League of America, Vixen wore a stylized black-and-light orange bodysuit with stripe-like accents.
