X-MEN and the story behind their costumes

After Phoenix and Cable were able to extract Apocalypse’s essence from the merged body, Scott returned to the X-Men as a changed man. He acts were more ruthless and his new black costume reflected this change in personality. [Uncanny X-Men #391]

and...

Weeks later, Xavier changed the entire look of his students. Instead of wearing bright costumes, they are now using some leather outfits that almost look like street clothes. The members have a vast supply of different shirts, coats and jackets from which to pick. [Uncanny X-Men #394]

I didn't know all that, Jury!!!

that's why I'm sharing them to you.

and it's fun, isn't it?

but still someone has trying to spoil it.

I'll try Marie... (just to back up eristole's version)

Rogue’s first costume was a green suit including a hood, thus nearly covering her entire body, fearing she could accidentally absorb another person. However, the gloves could be easily removed, in case she wanted to use her talent on an opponent. The original version had a dark green outline, though it was later colored white. [Avengers Annual #10]

After returning from the Secret Wars, Rogue tried out another look with this brown tunic, though apparently she was not happy with the color. [Uncanny X-Men #182

Soon after, she returned to a green outfit, this one being a overall like worn by mechanics, with a black bodice or jumpsuit underneath. [Uncanny X-Men #187]

Still trying to find a suiting costume, Rogue began to constantly change her outfit. Basically, she was wearing a black bodysuit, combined with several different green elements. She was seen wearing shirts of different sizes, belts, boots, gloves, a thong a mini skirt and a leather jacket in one occasion or the other. At the same time, she started to let her hair grow. [Uncanny X-Men #193-227]

When the X-Men relocated to Australia, Rogue finally settled on one look. It was still the black bodysuit but most of it covered by a bathing suit, overknee boots and long sleeves, all colored green. [Uncanny X-Men #229]

...

During a time the Carol Danvers personality had taken control of the body, she made Rogue wear her Ms. Marvel costume. When Rogue again gained dominance, in the middle of a battle, she was less than happy with the costume, finding it unacceptable. [Uncanny X-Men #246]

During the time Rogue and most of the residents of Muir Island were mentally possessed by the Shadow King, she was seen wearing several different outfits. One was her costume from the Australia days, another an entirely green outfit with a pale yellow chest area and long cape. The outfit presented here was the one she wore performing in an arena. It’s a dark blue bodysuit with a yellow vest, gloves and boots worn over it. There was also another look, quite similar to this, consisting of a gray bodysuit and blue attributes. [Uncanny X-Men #278-280]

Back with the X-Men, Rogue, like most of the others, received a new costume. The green and yellow suit, along with the leather jacket, kind of became Rogue’s trademark look. It’s the one she wore for the longest time period. [X-Men (2nd series) #1]

For a time, the X-Men were abducted to space to help battle an alien invasion. They had nothing to wear but the Shi’Ar uniforms aboard their vessel. To her surprise, Rogue’s costume was a mining suit, designed with a special low grade force field surrounding it’s wearer. This allowed her to apparently touch other people, though the very thin shield kept her from actually making contact. Rogue took the suit with her back to Earth. [Uncanny X-Men #342]

For a time, Rogue altered between the Shi’Ar mining suit and her original, hooded, green uniform. Wolverine asked her about the reasons for the change but Rogue remained very cryptic. [Uncanny X-Men #356]

In the following months, the X-Men adopted some sort of team look. Just like the others’ costumes, Rogue’s too had a big X across the chest area and was in her familiar green and yellow color scheme. Similar to the suit worn by new teammate, Thunderbird, it also had a metallic neck area. Sometimes, Rogue wore her leather jacket over this outfit again. [X-Men (2nd series) #100]

And...

After the X-Treme X-Men left the mansion, they came up with a set of new costumes, mainly in red and black. Like the rest of his team, Rogue has a set of red sunglasses with special properties – they function as the group’s communication and scanning device. However, Rogue’s glasses had an extra purpose; at the time, she was randomly manifesting abilities absorbed in the past and she feared to injure others with Cyclops’ uncontrollable optic beam. [X-Treme X-Men #1]

great!!! 😄
