Daredevil Season 2 premiered last week or, as I prefer to call it, WATCH OUT ELEKTRA IS HERE Season 1. (It was so good, you guys, SO GOOD.) Anyways, in typical White Hot Room fashion, that got me wondering what Elektra might snag for herself from the recent runway shows. The conclusion? These looks from Akris, Alexandre Vauthier, Cut25 by Yigal Azrouel, Elie Saab, Saint Laurent, and Ronald van der Kemp.
The costumes in the Hunger Games are incredible visual treats especially once we arrive at the Capitol. One of the especially fun characters to watch on screen is Effie Trinket. From that first bright fuchsia dress to that pale pink brocade one to the one entirely covered in freaking butterflies, she never wears anything boring.
There’s a chance that the fashions of our world might not be able to keep up with Effie. She’s one of the few who would might have to tone down her style for our world. Let’s think of these more like ‘inspired by’ looks.
We’ll start with very three dimension dress by Alexandre Vauthier.
Next up, there’s this Zac Posen with a gorgeous fabric that would be right up her alley.
She’d totally adore this Chanel!
We’d apologize for doing a third inspo post for our favourite White Queen but we’re not actually sorry. Emma Frost is just such an awesome character to mentally dress in the world’s high fashion because she’s someone who actually wears this sort of thing when she’s not on the run or going through one of those unfortunate phases where all she wears is black or her superhero costume.
We’re start off with this look by Proenza Schouler with its plunging and barely there neckline and all!
We’ll keep with the suit theme with this more conservative suit from Ralph Lauren for the occasions when she does need to go with more traditional business wear.
She’d be all over this Alexandre Vauthier; jacket, dress, and all!
When we weren’t paying attention, we accidentally started a ‘Capable Ladies of Star Wars’ edition of our What Would X Wear feature. Honestly, we just trip into these things. Anyways, when we put out a call for character suggestions last month, my fellow Tosche Station writer Nanci suggested that I do some for the Capable Ladies of the Expanded Universe and so it just seemed natural that Mirax Terrik would be the subject of today’s post.
The daughter of a smuggler and a capable entrepreneur in her own rights, Mirax Terrik kicks some butt in multiple arenas. She also knows how to dress for the occasion and pull off a slinky dress with the best of them. In other words, she has a pretty excellent wardrobe somewhere aboard the Pulsar Skate.
We’ll start relatively casual yet oh so chic with this outfit by Carolina Herrera.
What you really need to know though is that she can definitely rock a fabulous gown for the right occasion. Like these two dresses by Alexandre Vautheir and Versace. (Just try and tell me that Mirax doesn’t have great legs.)

There’s something about Mirax that says she’d rock a good jumpsuit just like this Jason Wu one.
