You really have to loosen up.

Look I get for the Nolanverse stuff everything must be sacrificed on the holy altar of "realism" but seriously if Batman can have his costume in some form then even in that context it doesn't work to reduce Catwoman's down to just a black suit with no visible cat motif whatsoever. Especially not when the design they are basing that on has already done 90% of the job including making her cowl into a functional hood and goggles for a mask.

Now it could just be that the pics from the particular scene being filmed she for whatever reason just doesn't have it, ok fine. But if they're having Catwoman in the film but actively avoiding her basic motif then that's a lame choice that makes her visually more generic IMO. She might as well be Black Widow.
 

I get your point, but let's look at this in the perspective that we are only in Batman's universe... Not in any other DC or Marvel stories. IIRC, Selina Kyle was pretty much the only iconic character to don that type of outfit being a "cat-burglar" and all. I mean, we call cat-burglars that name not because they look like a cat, but because of the use of their agility, penetrating secured areas through hard to reach places like high windows, vents, etc. With this info, it's easy to conclude without even using the process of elimination to know that she's Selina Kyle. Maybe she'll get a full cat costume in the middle, maybe she won't, but that really doesn't affect the plot at all, is all I'm saying.
 
Exactly. MattComix, it's obvious you're a counter-realist when it comes to comic book characters, but you've got about a bazillion other fans that disagree with you. Let's try not to ruin it for them, whaddya say?
 
Catwoman is supposedly on a similar journey to Bruce in that she'll evolve her look.


Bruce started out with just a ski mask and base jumping equipment
