As iconic as the big guy in blue is to the world of DC Comics, his smart-talking reporter soul mate is just as recognizable. Lois Lane has been tackling the toughest stories in Metropolis since her introduction in June 1938. Created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, she first appeared in the comic series Action Comics number one as the go-getter employee of The Daily Planet newspaper. Working alongside the undercover Clark Kent, the two have been married for fifteen years in the DC comic series and have children in some story arcs.

Creating your own Lois Lane Costume will be easy, you just have to pick what genre and time period you want to pursue. As with any character that has been around as long as Lois Lane, there will be multiple eras of fashion to choose from. Below we have provided multiple versions of the smart, classy business type dress that Lois sports.
