Line 11:
A [[Sub Trope]] of [[Costume Porn]].
 
Compare [[Bling of War]], [[Pimped -Out Dress]], [[Happy Holidays Dress]], [[Scary Impractical Armor]], [[Environment Specific Action Figure]] (this trope applied to toys for the purpose of having more variants to sell), [[An Ice Suit]], [[Pimped -Out Cape]], [[Battle Ballgown]], [[Kicking Ass in All Her Finery]].
 
Contrast [[Stripperific]], [[Exposed to The Elements]], [[Chainmail Bikini]].

* Picture comes from ''[[Star Wars Clone Wars]]''. Amidala's suit does seem like it could work on [[Single Biome Planet|an ice planet]], but what makes it this trope is the short, but voluminous [[Pretty in Mink|fur-trimmed]] [[Pimped -Out Cape]], with the two furry puff balls (an accessory that is strictly for fashion, not utility).
** It does get use as a decoy for droid fire though, [[Impossibly Cool Clothes|and doesn't even get singed]].
* ''[[The Batman (Animation)|The Batman]]'' does this on occasion. In Mr. Freeze's debut episode, Batman breaks out a white and blue thermally protected suit.
Line 66:
* The team in ''[[The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest]]'' gets cool-looking stuff like swim gear and parkas. Notably, Jessie [[Pink Means Feminine|gets the pink colored outfits]].
* The Team's polar stealth outfits in ''[[Young Justice (Animation)|Young Justice]]''. While Robin, Artemis and {{spoiler|Zatanna}} are bundled up, the rest of the team just have recolored outfits.
* [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)|Rarity]] often eschews drab camouflage for more [[Comically Missing the Point|scintillating colors]].
