Line 6:
Sometimes you don't need a full-on [[Invisibility Cloak]]. You don't care if people see you, just if they see the ''real'' you. And so you don an ensemble that completely obscures your features and possibly even your whole body. This is far more than a simple [[Wig, Dress, Accent]]. There isn't anything left of you to make out. The you beneath the suit is effectively invisible.
 
Any superhero or villain with a full-face mask would be included here, (Harley Quinn's make-up counts -- howcounts—how many people would recognize her without it and her trademark clothing and hairstyle?) but superheros with no mask ([[Superman]]) or partial masks ([[Batman]], Robin, Green Arrow) would not.
 
Contrast [[Paper-Thin Disguise]]. Also see [[Black Cloak]] and [[Alternate Appearance Aura]].
Line 14:
== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* In ''[[Code Geass]]'', Zero's outfit completely obscures his physical features; among many other things, one consequence of this is that everyone thinks he's Japanese. This also allows C.C. to take over his identity when he's out of action for a year.
* The [[Mysterious Protector]] in ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]] A's''. What originally appeared to be a man hiding behind [[Mask Power|a simple face mask]] [[Dramatic Unmask|turned out to be]] {{spoiler|a full body illusion disguising [[Treacherous Advisor|Gil Graham's]] [[Catgirl]] [[Familiar|familiarsfamiliar]]s}}.
* In the ''[[Read or Die]]'' manga, [[Paper Master]] Ridley Wan makes one out of paper to impersonate Yomiko's deceased lover, Donny Nakajima. It's so detailed that she fails to realize he's an imposter until he tells her - ''after'' she slept with him.
* [[Lupin III]] uses these from time to time, often to impersonate women.

== [[Web Original]] ==
* In the ''[[Paradise]]'' setting, human characters are randomly, permanently changed into [[Funny Animal|Funny Animals]]s (and some are [[Gender Bending|gender-swapped]] as well). After they change, characters have an illusory full body disguise of their old human selves where normal human beings are concerned (whether they like it or not), especially early on when the [[Weirdness Censor|"Reality Distortion Field"]] is stronger. A man who turned into a female bear might look much like his old masculine self, just a little overweight—-which means he will need to [[Wholesome Crossdresser|continue to dress like a man]]. Normals literally cannot tell anything has changed; only others changed can see them as they are.
