She started in a star spangled skirt, soon moved to shorts and now has what Joss Whedon derided as "panties." Which do you prefer? And let's not kid ourselves. None of it is practical so let's not get into that debate.
Skirt (Original and still the Best)
Shorts (makes more sense)
Panties (Whedon is right)
Just Put Some Damn Pants On Her Already!

I think it'd work best as Darwyn Cooke's version in New Frontier. Heavy (armor?) skirt with shorts underneath
I prefer the leather strip skirt (pteryges) from the ancient armor (like on Ares' armor). There's no real choice for that, though. A regular skirt would send Carol into a tizzy, I believe. :)

I prefer Hippoltya in a skirt as the GA WW & Diana in her current look.

I think there have been times when she's looked great in both!![]()
I like the current look, don't see the need for a change.
Is "panties" really the correct term?

Concur with pro-skirt voters. The skirt of leather pleats (aegisbearer is right: Pteruges , people). With the classic Wonder Woman bottoms underneath that. No reason you can't have both. Practical, provides coverage, and you can't deny it sends a message.

I wouldn't mind if the red bodice was more of a jumpsuit with a "skirt" hanging in front and behind (more like pieces of fabric, like a warrior would wear, than a "skirt").
I also wouldn't be against the star spangled theme to be more like the "starfield" ala Donna Troy's costume, which was a gift from the Titans (except instead of black with white stars it could be navy with white stars).
I voted for skirt, but I'm also okay with the 'panties.'
Both look good, but skirts are just a little more classy, and with Wonder Woman they're more iconic.
A lot of people get sentience confused for sapience. Your hamster is sentient, you are sapient. Intelligence is sapience.
Definitely not the original skirt or shorts. But I've always liked the idea of a Xena-ish warrior skirt on her. Or the fabric hanging in front and behind idea.
Pants wouldn't hurt. I don't mind the current look, tho, as long as I can avoid the artists who draw 'thong' instead of 'panties.'
