Superman

  The original Man of Steel hardly needs an introduction. And not that any true Justice League fan will need tips on how to dress as Superman. The hard part is the super strength. You may have to hit the gym for a few weeks before suiting up. The main parts of a Superman costume are easy to find. A fitting blue shirt and slim blue pants or leggings could make up the suit (that is, if you can’t find a single piece). Then add a red cape (the more aerodynamic, the better), a red belt and you’re up, up and away. What you’ll need:
  • Red cape
  • Blue suit
  • Red belt
  • Laser heat vision (optional)

Aquaman

  You won't look like a fish out of water with the right Aquaman Justice League costume. As the nominated resident expert in all things from the deep, dark ocean, you’ll need a Justice League costume to that will give a true Aquaman justice. Sure, Aquaman was once the butt of jokes in the Justice League. But now the modern Aquaman is a brooding and dangerous hero. The new 2017 film is sure to establish Aquaman’s reputation in a serious way and give anyone reason to take to the high seas when finding a Justice League costume. What you’ll need:
  • Green bodysuit
  • Gold armour
  • Poseidon pitchfork
  • Blonde wig

The Flash

  Need a Justice League costume in a flash? Then there’s no better option than the… er, Flash. As one of the original members of the Justice League, Flash is a classic character that can offer both a simple and effective costume. Seriously, the Flash’s simple red costume is less than complicated. And it’s sure to be a comfy fit, too. But remember: to really pull off a Flash costume, the devil is in the detail. Take care with the gold trims and lightning bolt logo. What you’ll need:
  • Red bodysuit
  • Red cap
  • Super-fast slippers

Green Lantern

  Of course, the Green Lantern is another Justice League costume favourite (if we just forget about that Ryan Reynolds film). Since Green Lantern isn’t just one superhero, you’re flexible to try your own take on the class of alien superheroes known as the Green Lantern. Getting together this Justice League costume won't be hard. It’s bright. It’s electric green. The only thing is finding a magic ring... Unfortunately, there aren’t a lot of those around. What you’ll need:
  • Green and blue suit
  • Green mask
  • Green Lantern Ring

Batman

  Ah, Batman. Another Justice League classic. Batman is an irrefutable favourite and icon of popular comic culture. Every year, kids and adults alike dress as the caped crusader – from birthdays to Halloween and cosplay – to bring stability back to Gotham City. And because of the lasting legacy of the flawed hero, there are plenty of Batman costume styles to choose from. Do you choose the dark and foreboding Christian Bale Batman? The heroic Michael Keaton version? Or the colourfully comic Adam West variety? What you’ll need:
  • Black cape and mask
  • Grey suit
  • Yellow utility belt

Wonder Woman

  Wonder Woman hit the silver screen this year, bringing a fresh Hollywood revamp to the superheroine. A central member of the Justice League, no crew is complete without a Wonder Woman costume. As with the other classic Justice League characters, Wonder Woman can be tailored to suit the style of its wearer. From an Amazonian outfit to a blazing red and blue suit, transforming into the fearless Wonder Woman can take your own sense of personal style. Take a classic look – or go with the modern interpretation. What you’ll need:
  • A red top or corset
  • Blue tights or skirt
  • Red boots and cape
  • Gold headpiece and armbands
