Batgirl Belt by Alaia

UPDATED!

Have I told you that my three-year-old son is obsessed with superheroes? That he painted his hands red today in order to look like Spiderman?

His favorite Christmas gift was a Batman costume, which he wears everywhere.

But he’s a little concerned, because he wants Spiderman to have a pal—namely Spidergirl.

Of course there isn’t a Spidergirl in comic book land, so do you think he’d settle for his mum in this Batgirl belt by Alaia?*

It brings new meaning to the concept of Supermum, doesn’t it?


*Of course Alaia does not call this lovely belt Batgirl-inspired, but can't you just see the bat ears?
P.S. I stand corrected: here's Spidergirl. And my son is *not* going to play with her any time soon!

    There actually is a Spidergirl, who is Peter Parker's and Mary Jane's daughter in an alternate future universe.

    I'd never noticed but Spidergirl has killer calve muscles. My guess is she's hasn't been walking 5th Ave in heels.

    I miss those days, when my sons wanted to be super-heros -- like the "Power Rangers" and "Batman" -
    I have always loved "Eartha Kitt" - she wore something like this.
