The Lady Nerd

Geek Made Chic

Casual Spider-girl

February 9, 2018 by The Lady Nerd 12 Comments

While visiting Disney Springs this summer, I happened upon a fun looking clothing collection for the release of the new Spider-Man: Homecoming film.

And then I saw it.

A women’s tank top with a cleverly designed crochet straps forming a web on the back. Right in the middle of the shirt was a circle shaped graphic that with the Spider-man mask overlaid on it was rather reminiscent of a basketball.

It was too perfect. The shirt just screams Mayday Parker, despite the “Spider-MAN” part on it. (For those who don’t know, May “Mayday” Parker, better known as Spider-girl, is Peter Parker’s daughter from an alternate universe. She’s a feisty, resourceful 90s gal with a love for basketball and fighting evildoers.) I paired it of 90s-style shorts from Forever 21, and my trusty Converse for a fun, casual geek summer outfit.

As luck would have it, I got to team up with the folks at Angle 3 Films to bust out this shoot. A match made in geeky heaven! I happened to need photos for my blog and Michael Rivera and David Hoang needed a project for their interns to cut their teeth on. Win-win!

    Looking lovely, m’dear (I won’t use the same gimmick twice). I have to say that my only disappointment in the Spiderman: Homecoming movie was their take on MJ Watson who (for me) shall always be a redhead and “the girl next door.”

      Yeah…while I was sad about that, I also understand that people are looking for more diversity so it’s not just a white girl again. So I think the filmmakers were trying to take that into consideration.

      Thank you very much! Hah! One of the few shots I have of my legs looking longer than my torso. 😛 (When in reality, my torso is longer than my legs.)

    Loved the blog. I’d maybe ask for a price quote and the back crochet that caught your eye. Keep it up
