After briefly teasing a new, fully-covered look for Supergirl coming into the next season in a recent Kevin Smith interview, Evelyn Somerhalder-Wood has taken to Instagram to officially reveal Kara's new look for season five: Out with the skirt, in with the leggings—the primary reason being, according to Somerhalder-Wood, so she doesn't freeze to death filming in chilly Vancouver wearing a superskirt. Oh, and she now has bangs!
The costume is, pretty much, an effective merging of Kara's current look and the version of the Superman suit worn by Tyler Hoechlin in his televisual outings as the Man of Tomorrow. The belt is still there, albeit updated a little, the thigh-high boots are still there, the thumb-holed gauntlets are there...it's pretty much just the skirt that's now missing, replaced by Spandex trousers.
Oh, and Kara's forehead. Thanks, bangs! Supergirl returns to the CW October 6
