Crafty Avengers: how to dress in Black Widow style

black_widow_costume.jpgTo celebrate the Avengers Assemble movie here at Crafty Crafty we're turning the superheroes handmade. Today we're after a bit of Black Widow craft to give a nod to Scarlett Johansson's ass-kicking Natasha Romanoff. Want to get that Black Widow look so you can strut your stuff with the rest of the Avengers team?

This brilliant How to Put Together a Marvel Black Widow Costume in 24 Hours from Cosplay queen Worrier Princess will have you clobbering bad guys in Black Widow style in no time.

Kiki, the Worrier Princess in question, put together the costume from searching the online stores of high street shops, rather than forking out for a ready made costume. There's some clever use of accessories in there, as well as good tips on finding the right stretchy spandex leotard when you're not the type to wander about in one normally.

Also quick kudos for this Superhero Black Widow Bow (right) being sold by Geeks are Chic over on Etsy. For those who are less likely to leap about in a leotard, but still want to wear a bit of Black Widow bling.
