Batgirl's (Alicia Silverstone) ice armour costume from Joel Schumacher's Batman & Robin. Batgirl donned her ice armour costume to aid Batman (George Clooney) and Robin (Chris O'Donnell) in saving Gotham City from Mr. Freeze (Arnold Schwarzenegger), Poison Ivy (Uma Thurman), and Bane (Jeep Swenson) in the film's finale. The film had the third-highest opening weekend gross of 1997 and, at the time, the seventh-highest non-holiday opening weekend of all time.
Designed by Ingrid Ferrin, Robert Turturice, and Bob Ringwood with components sculpted by Jose Fernandez, this leather and foam latex costume consists of a dark blue foam cowl with pointed ears, a matching bodysuit with a zippered back and a silver-colour bat insignia on the chest, a matching leather corset with a lace-up back, a scalloped leatherette cape with resin shoulder clips, dark blue leather gloves with silver-colour resin fins, a silver-colour rubber belt with a simulated buckle featuring a bat insignia, and a pair of thigh-length high-heeled leather boots with silver-colour bat insignias near the tops. The gloves and boots are replicas added to complete the costume. The entire costume has been mounted to a mannequin display made in Silverstone's likeness featuring green eyes, eyelashes, blonde hair, and painted details in the skin and lips. The arms are removable. The costume exhibits wear from use and age, including cracking in the foam elements, most notably in the shoulders and the bridge of the cowl's nose. Dimensions: (displayed) 43.25 cm x 61 cm x 183 cm (17" x 24" x 72")
