Must have taken a while to find a company that did both in a suitable style!
What an excellent point, it is these details that make all the difference - dedication and attention to detail!

Thanks both! You're right, attention to detail is what sets a good cosplay apart from the 'costume in a box' party shop version. Actually finding the shoes wasn't difficult, they're from Pleaser/Devious who make almost all their styles in black and red. Surprisingly what caused me the most trouble was finding the bells for the collar; I'm still not entirely happy with them and I might paint them to match the off-white rubber better. Attention to detail again! That said, although this is one of my favourite costumes it's not actually a canon costume at all but a mash-up of the original Bruce Timm version with some items taken from fan art. Here's an illustration of what I mean,
Anyone want to hazard a guess at which villainess is being rubberised in one of my new projects?

If you visit his website Beard-Li's an Australian who moved to Japan to work in martial art movies.

A little bit off-topic, but I'm sure @
Culmor will be interested.
The new Wonder Woman outfit is... interesting:
- more leather than Lycra and looking vaguely familiar?
- I knew I'd seen that look before! Oh Xena, come back all is forgiven 💓
....but what's this? An alternative that maybe didn't make it to the final production?
- Now there is potential for more traditional Lycra fun
Which one do you prefer?
