Cool!
So, my reaction: I appreciate the sense of tradition by giving her net sleeves instead of fishnet stockings, but I think the stockings are better.
I love the color contrast, and the lines of the costume. Needs a top hat, though! Not quite sure of the pop punk mood, but I could see it working. I'm just a sucker for the tux top and fishnet bottoms with the topper and wand.

Cool! Thanks for posting these! (Though he fell down on drawing the lower cut of the jacket… the rest is all A).
And I know that Cooke's has his own characteristic style that is not to everyone's taste. But I like it, and I think his costume work shows a lot of attention and care that other artists should do well to emulate.

Cliff Chiang also does an excellent Zatanna, in white tie working clothes or just for a night out with friends…

Yeah, it's one of the stories that really manage to capture the friendship and solidarity that should be between the DC heroines. And Chiang really managed to capture the personality of these three here in their clothes and posture. Diana with the corset and dress meant to evoke drapings, and just being her natural self. Zatanna with tasteful bling, a little black dress leaving one shoulder exposed and in a pose of confidence and that these are my friends. Babs with a nice dress with straps over both shoulders that she's uncomfortable with, having a watch as an accessory, and not sure what's she's doing here.
It wasn't bad in on itself. I don't mind a change and something different now and again.
It matches Zatanna but only in an Ultimate universe or Nu52 where they are trying to do away with those "silly" superhero costumes. It doesn't really match the other heroes color full and comic book costumes.
So I liked it but only in other more grounded worlds. Not in the main continuity.
The costume Zee has now is closer to her new52 than her classic look actually.
