Melissa Benoist Shares First Image of Supergirl's New Skirtless Suit!
Supergirl is ditching the skirt!
Melissa Benoist took to Instagram to share a photo of the new super suit, and she’s now wearing blue pants, instead of a red skirt.
“We’ve been talking about pants since season 1,” she told EW. “Every time a writer from the show has come up, and it’s freezing cold in Vancouver, I’m like, ‘Guys, please can I not wear tights?’ I love [Kara’s old costume]. I haven’t changed it because it so works, and I think it is very Kara. I’ve always felt that — until recently, I’m like, ‘Something’s gotta give.’”
“I just think it’s more adult,” Melissa added. “Part of my goal in this whole series for whenever the show ends, I just want there to be a very clear arc for this character that she evolved as a woman and found her femininity and her adulthood, just a self-discovery.”
A new Supergirl suit with pants was teased in the season four finale. You can see those pics in the gallery!
