Known for an elegant, sophisticated, and understated-chic aesthetic, Gadot gravitates toward clean silhouettes and refined tailoring, while still embracing bold, glamorous moments on the red carpet.

From sleek, figure-skimming gowns with plunging necklines to vibrant monochromatic looks in scarlet, cobalt, or sunshine yellow, she consistently favors polished, high-impact minimalism.

“Let’s Wear Flats”: Gal Gadot on the Highs and Lows of Wearing Heels

“I love wearing high heels – I think it’s beautiful, it’s sexy, whatever. But at the same time, especially stilettos, it puts us out of balance,” she told USA Today in May 2017 about wearing high heels to boost her height.

“We can fall any minute. It’s not good for our backs. Why do we do it?”

“By the way, I can wear stilettos. I can wear high heels. It’s not like I can’t wear it because of my back. But I was like, ‘Let’s go all the way. Let’s wear flats!’ I’ve been waiting for this moment.”

Redefining a Heroine: Gal Gadot’s Bold Take on the Wonder Woman Costume

In March 2016, Jimmy Kimmel brought attention to Gal Gadot’s unconventional Wonder Woman costume, which clearly deviated from the bright star-spangled red-and-blue costume in the comics.

Gal Gadot took to the red carpet of the “Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice” New York premiere to say that she actually had some say in writing Diana’s personality and designing the Wonder Woman costume.

Gal’s say? She wanted her version of Wonder Woman to be a little “muddier” than most cut-and-dry superheroes.

Gal was asked where Wonder Woman fell on the light-dark spectrum after pointing out that Superman was more on the light side and Batman was more on the dark side.

The actress said writers deliberately made Wonder Woman a bit “muddier.” They didn’t want to typecast Diana as a perfect character, so they muddied her character — and costume — up a bit to put her in the middle of the dark-vs-light spectrum.
