Jean can make the idea of the Marvel Girl dress work, but... it shouldn't be the exact costume. A look that is a dress is fine but those boots and gloves need to GO and I'd appreciate a more modern belt or sash as well.

You think the dress should be a villainess Black lingerie outfit like Frost?

No, definitely not. It should be a mature and fitting costume for someone like Jean Grey - not anything like Emma's looks. Originally Posted by MichelleDiMera

One of them is the idea of the dress, the other is a classic X-suit, and the third is a cape look since everyone here seems to want to see Jeannie wearing a cape. All of them are using the "iconic" green/gold color scheme.

The cape feels too much like Hope.

Probably because it was a Hope base. The other ones were either too much like other characters too (Storm, Emma) or didn't match what I was envisioning. Originally Posted by Wiccan

I detest all capes, they just makes no sense unless it's doctor Strange or ancient mystical characters "thor style"
Ommadon: “By summoning all the dark powers I will infest the spirit of man So that he uses his science and logic to destroy himself. Greed and avarice shall prevail, and those who do not hear my words shall pay the price. I'll teach man to use his machines, I'll show him what distorted science can give birth to. I'll teach him to fly like a fairy, and I'll give him the ultimate answer to all his science can ask. And the world will be free for my magic again.”

I think as long as you're not a physical close range fighter, capes are fine. Originally Posted by Daedra

would you really be fine with cyclops wearing a cape? I'm not trying to be provocative, I'm genuinely curious, Originally Posted by SpiderClops

Cyclops has to get close range a lot of times. He has to run, jump, flip around. He can't fly. So cape wouldn't suit him at all. Originally Posted by Daedra

but i want Jean to be acrobatic as well, powers not always work, putting a cape on her would be akin to turning her into a sitting duck Originally Posted by SpiderClops

I love the classic Marvel Girl costume. Even as an adult, Jean still looks great in it. Originally Posted by 5cents

I'm not against capes, it's part of the superheroes trope, after all! But as Alex Ross's, it shouldn't be too showy, blending more into the costume. For me a cape for Jean is not to show off to everyone while she's flying. It should be here to show the mysterious side the psychic have. Psylocke had a cape at one time (and an armor, but Jean doesn't need armor, she's a telekinetic, if she wants, nothing touches her!), Emma's Astonishing X-Men costume had a cape!
For me a cape like Ross's (I can't stop I just love this almost one shoulder cape, maybe a little too long!) is a mark of status. It's commanding and Jean's costume shouldn't ostentatory but commanding. When she enters a place all heads must turn on her, not only because she's beautiful, but because sh'es a major player in the mutant and superheroe community!
