Geek Chic: Fashion Inspired by Sailor Moon
They all have individual powers and defenses that correspond to the virtues that that they represent, their personalities, and the Roman mythology behind their planets. For instance, Sailor Jupiter wields lightning, which references the god Jupiter and his lightning bolts. Sailor Moon (who of course does not represent a planet) has the most special powers, which usually involve magic and moonlight.

Admit it: whenever that transformation segment came on, you totally twirled around your living room along with the Sailor Scouts. (Or perhaps that was just me…) What’s not in question is that the Sailor Scouts have the coolest crime-fighting outfits ever!
Sailor Moon and company can get away with tiny, floaty skirts because they’re 1) fictional and 2) animated, but you probably shouldn’t traipse around campus sporting such microscopic hemlines. Enter another ’90s mainstay: the skort, 2012 edition. These chiffon tap shorts have a sheer panel in the front, so you get the look of a skirt but the coverage of shorts. Pair it with a bow blouse and cute, walking-friendly wedges.
Now for accessories. A gold torque necklace is a trendy update on the Scouts’ ribbon chokers; it also resembles their metallic headbands. Since opera-length gloves would probably look a bit odd, reference their bright elbow cuffs with an armful of colorful bangles. The forces of evil had better beware!
Tuxedo Mask
When the Sailor Scouts are in trouble, they are often assisted by a mysterious masked man known as Tuxedo Mask. Tuxedo Mask is the reincarnation of Prince Endymion, the crown prince of Earth and Princess Serenity’s lover.
In everyday life, Serena clashes with a boy named Darien. (Surprise, surprise: he’s Tuxedo Mask in civilian form!) While their early encounters resulted in the exchange of insults, they eventually develop feelings for one another. Although their alter egos frequently fight crime together, Serena and Darien are initially unaware of each other’s secret identities.
