Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Super Powers Collection will have pre-1990s costumes, though Harley Quinn is the exception since she wasn't created until the 1990s.

This looks like a bronze age design from the early to mid 80's [purple dress, green cape]. It's definitely not a classic Catwoman.

They weren't drawing Catwoman showing cleavage like that in the 50's.

Quote:
In 1947 Selina Kyle officially took on the name Catwoman and was wearing a costume appropriate for a comic book superhero or villain. She donned a purple dress with a green cape. Capes were all the rage back then. The dress may have been more appropriate for a party than a burglary but it finally gave readers an image to represent her alter ego. The best upgrade to the costume was a cat mask similar to what would be used in future versions of Catwoman’s costumes.

It would cover most of her face, have cat ears on top, and allow her long hair to flow behind her. Like any good superheroine costume she had the boots with high heels. Let’s pretend the heels let her dig into structures as she leapt from building to building. Later renditions would add a choker, perhaps to bring on the illusion of a cat collar. This dress would occasionally be substituted for a bodysuit, which would be more inline with future updates.

This costume would make a comeback from 1983-1986. As was the norm in later comics, more skin would be exposed. The dress had a lower neckline and showed a lot more of her legs. The boots did become longer and her gloves left her fingers free. Apparently, fingerprint technology is not available in Gotham City.
