Just a rant really, or maybe someone knows where to find these mythical items.

We have a family Halloween party to go to, and DD has a Harley Quinn outfit. Oooo, thinks I, perhaps I shall go as a DC character too? Or Marvel, if I can't find anything DCish.

I thought I'd give ebay a try. Fucking hell, 'sexy' this and 'sexy' that. I might be onto a hiding for nothing with female comic book characters to be fair, but the skirts are all so short! And the corsets so booby! This is a family party!

I'm 5"2 and a 14-16. I have a big ass. Tight catsuits are an absolute no. I'd ideally like a skirt that stops closer to my knee than my crotch!

Why oh why do so many fancy dress outfits for women look like they've waltzed out of Ann Summers!!?

Rant over.

YANBU.
I saw one for Cruella recently and though ‘brilliant! Finally, a woman’s costume of a character that is wearing something’. We are obviously in a minority though as these skimpy costumes do get purchased.
