How To Dress Like Zero Suit Samus

What is Metroid?

Metroid, originally released in Japan as Metroid, Metroids are a species of parasitic extraterrestrial lifeforms with the ability to absorb the DNA and physical traits of their prey. The Metroids were created by an ancient race of beings called the Chozo. It was these very Chozo who named the species “Metroid” in their own language, which translates to “ultimate warrior.”

Recent events had brought Samus Aran to a research lab on planet SR388 – a place long known to the Galactic Federation as an origin point for Metroids. In order to combat this threat, Samus obtained a vaccine from the last surviving Metroid – her former nemesis, Baby – and used it against the hostile organisms infesting the lab. Unfortunately, all but one of them were too far gone for even this cure to help…

With no other option left available, Samus was forced to exterminate those few remaining specimens that were beyond saving. She then proceeded further into SR388 and eventually built up enough energy within her Power Suit’s reactor that it was able to fire her deep into space once more…

Who is Zero Suit Samus?

The Zero Suit is a form of attire worn by Samus Aran when she’s not using her Power Suit. You may have seen the Zero Suit in action during the end of Metroid: Other M, when Samus was fighting “the Baby” in her escape pod.

We’ve also seen the Zero Suit in past 2D Metroid games such as Super Metroid and Metroid Fusion.

In fact, the Zero Suit made its formal debut in the now-classic NES game – Super Metroid! The Zero Suit is a part of Samus Aran’s “basic” attire, along with her Power Suit. On rare occasions she may be caught wearing the Zero Suit as she runs around in an environment where her Power Suit is not needed – such as when she first landed on planet Zebes prior to Super Metroid.

The suit consists of black shorts and boots with accents matching those on her iconic Power Suit – though it doesn’t provide any protection against damage like the Power Suits do. It also lacks a helmet, so it is unable to protect against attacks from above or below. Despite this lack of defense, the suit is still able to absorb energy projectiles through its material – just like the Power Suit.

The Zero Suit’s most interesting feature is the pair of “Wings of Liberty” that are located on the back of her suit. These wings can be used for limited flight, though they require a certain amount of energy to be activated. In Super Smash Bros., these wings will give Zero Suit Samus an upwards boost, making them useful for recovering.

How to dress like Zero Suit Samus:

To dress like Zero Suit Samus, you’ll first want to get the costume. The costume includes the wings, the boots, a holster, and the helmet.

While it is not required for this outfit, we would also recommend getting the Zero Suit Samus Wig and Zero Suit Samus Deluxe Muscle Chest. With these accessories in place, you’ll be ready to go!

Wig

You will need a long blonde wig to dress like Zero Suit Samus. The wig for this character is a very long, wavy blonde wig. It is sold by CosplayWig and has an attached bang. You’ll want to brush the bang out and have it fall over your eyes.

While you may be tempted to cut the bang out of the wig so that it lies more naturally on your face, rest assured that this will not help you look more like Zero Suit Samus! In fact, it may make you look worse if it doesn’t fit your face as well as you would expect.

Holster

The holster that comes with this costume is a great accessory to have when dressing like Zero Suit Samus. The holster is a simple black strap that will fit around your thigh and hold the gun in place.

While it may seem like a small detail, the holster is an important part of Zero Suit Samus’s look. By wearing it, you’ll be able to recreate the look from the game perfectly!

Boots

The Zero Suit boots are also an important part of this character’s look. These boots are a pair of blue covers that you will attach over your own shoes. They fit over any shoe size and stay on securely. The costume comes with two pairs for you to wear as needed!

Pants

The pants that come with this costume are made from spandex and polyester material, and they have a shiny appearance to them. These pants fit comfortably on your body and make for a great way to finish off your look!

Blue Pumps

The blue pumps that come with this costume are a great way to finish off the look. These shoes have a shiny blue appearance to them, and will fit comfortably on your feet. They are made from a spandex material and fit up to size 10.
