Russian tanks better watch out -- they're about to be beautified out of existence. Putin better "make up" soon.

Speaking as a comic book and cosplay geek, I am impressed.

Only suggestion I’d have made is blades instead of feathers ala Archangel in X-men.

Still impressive piece of work by whoever did it. And Miss Ukraine wears it well.

Miss Ukraine 2022 Viktoria Apanasenko's badass "Warrior of Light" costume is an impressive feat of sewing, taking four months to complete under "extreme conditions." The costume was pieced together by candlelight with the sounds of war and emergency sirens in the background and without electricity.
