Poison Ivy Bodysuit

The next item you will need for your Poison Ivy costume is a pair of green gloves.
These gloves should be long enough to be pulled up over your biceps.
If you want to copy the exact look of Uma Thurman in the movie you should wear pair of sheer of gloves that feature thumb loops rather than full fingered gloves. |
Poison Ivy Pantyhose

Another essential item of clothing you will need to make your own Poison Ivy costume is a pair of pantyhose.
These should be green opaque pantyhose just like Uma Thurman wears on legs in the Batman and Robin movie. |
Poison Ivy High Heels

Throughout the Batman and Robin Movie Uma Thurman is seen wearing high heel boots and high heel shoes.
For this Poison Ivy costume you will need a simple pair green or black high heel office style shoes with a stiletto high heel. |
Poison Ivy Cloak

You need to wear green poison ivy leaves on the sides of your hair just like Uma Thurman in the movie. |
Poison Ivy Eye Makeup

You have two choices when it comes to eye makeup for your Poison Ivy fancy dress.
In the movie Uma Thurman wears attachments around her eyes. If you can find replicas of these then that is great. If not, you can always wear makeup that looks similar. |
Poison Ivy Wig – Poison Ivy Hair

The final part of making your own Poison Ivy fancy dress is her hair.
If you happen to have long hair you can dye your hair red just like the character in the Batman and Robin movie.
