Femme fatale characters are among the best choices for costumes. And one of the most popular options is the Poison Ivy costume. When Uma Thurman played this role in the Batman and Robin film in 1997, a lot of women and even young girls have been enticed to work out this costume.

Meanwhile, her roots have to be revisited in order for you to internalize her character. She was created by Robert Kanigher and Sheldon Moldoff for the Batman comics episode number 181 released on June 1966. Before becoming one of Batman’s most unforgettable nemeses, she was Dr. Pamela Lilian Isley who was a botanist from Seattle. She was seduced by Marc LeGrande into being an accomplice to steal an Egyptian artifact containing ancient herbs. Later on, paranoia hit LeGrande that Isley would tell on him. He planned to poison her with deadly herbs and Isley strangely survives. As they say, what does not kill only makes you stronger. True to this adage, the once promising botanist became immune to any type of fatal toxins from plants.

These toxins were then integrated to her bloodstream. She had this unexplainable higher regard for plant life rather than human beings. Anyone who would come her way can be fallen victims with her kiss of death. It was so easy for her to lure victims with her fiery red hair, voluptuous curves and alluring red lips. Despite these ominous traits, Harley Quinn, the occasional girlfriend of other Gotham City felon Joker, remained her only human friend and partner in crime.

With this overview, you can do justice when you wear the Poison Ivy costume and even have your friend play Harley Quinn. First of all, anywhere Batman costumes are available, you can find this costume as well. This costume package is offered as unique as the store carrying it. Here are a few variations: inclusive of forest green mini dress trimmed with light green color, boot tops, glovelets, hair decorations made of faux ivies and arm bracelets. Another is comprised of green bodysuit, green gloves, matching shoe covers, head piece and armband. And a rare one includes ivy-adorned green mini dress, green gloves and tights and leaf boa.

Remember that another factor that makes the Poison Ivy costume even more noticeable is her flaming hot red hair. Some online stores also carry Poison Ivy wigs. But if you are willing to really imbibe being this seductive rogue, coloring your hair with temporary red dye will be preferable. The color would last for only a couple of months, which allows you to rock a new hairstyle. If this would be too drastic for you, you can just buy a spray-in hair color that can be washed off easily. Whatever option for the hair you will go for, remember to wear your hair down and style it with voluptuous waves, which is Ivy’s signature look.
