History Main / ActionFashionista

* ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' has Rarity, a fashion designer who fights many monster and villains with her friends, including teen dragons who would hurt her little [[MamaBear Spikey-Wikey]]. One particular moment of note is the fighting montage in the season 2 finale episode. Of all of the Mane Six who are fighting the Changelings, Rarity is the only one visibly taking some satisfaction out of punching one in the jaw. Rarity apparently knows some form of martial arts, as she often assumes a vague stance when about to physically fight. It's most noticeable when she's threatening teenage dragons that are about to hurt Spike:

* Britanny Elin Diggers from ''ComicBook/GoldDigger'': is a mall rat supreme, and a RunningGag throughout the series is her (and her sisters) running ''multi-million dollar'' credit cards ''completely dry'' and having to perform her adventures (at least partially) to pay the banks. Of all three sisters she's the one that mostly wastes money on clothes (also at least partially justified because being an ActionGirl ClothingDamage happens to her ''very'' often).
* ''Franchise/WonderWoman'':

* ComicBook/{{Supergirl}}, who's one of the more powerful heroes of Franchise/TheDCU, loves buying and trying new clothes, as well as changing or tweaking her superhero costume. She's worn over ''thirty'' costumes since her first appearance. Some ''few'' of them can be seen [[https://www.deviantart.com/boybluesdcu/art/Evolution-of-Supergirl-377366562 here]]. As of that picture date, she has added [[ComicBook/Supergirl2011 at]] [[ComicBook/RedDaughterOfKrypton least]] [[ComicBook/SupergirlRebirth five]] new costumes.
* ComicBook/TheWasp probably has the largest wardrobe in comic book history. Justified, as she actually ''is'' TheFashionista. See portrayals of and information about each costume [[http://www.wondrouswasp.altervista.org/w64-72.htm here]].
* Franchise/XMen's ComicBook/KittyPryde had [[http://13thdimension.com/x-men-week-the-crazy-costumes-of-kitty-pryde/ a period where she was designing her own costumes]], especially when she gets her hands on an alien device that allows instant clothes changes. However, being a young teenager at the time, she tended to have [[RummageSaleReject a questionable taste in fashion]].

* Both Jinny and Nina Samuels on NXT UK have this as a gimmick (Samuels even has someone to carry her bags to the ring for her). Considering how similar their characters are, they somehow still haven't crossed paths or formed even a temporary alliance.

* ''Manga/FairyTail'': Lucy Heartfilia is constantly seen changing outfits throughout the series and while she mostly prefers adventuring in her blue-and-white default, she has been prone to wear whatever is convenient. She later gains the Star Dress spell that grants her outfits with the powers of her Zodiac keys (of which she has ten).

* Rose from ''Franchise/StreetFighter'' is a lovely-looking LadyOfBlackMagic who fights in a dress and CombatStilettos, and in ''IV'' can get ''very'' pretty outfits via DLC.

* ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTriForceHeroes'' takes place in a fashion-forward version of Hyrule, thus Link and his impersonators can wear outfits that give you perks, such as the Spin Attack Attire, the Lucky Loungewear, the Big Bomb Outfit, and the [[WholesomeCrossdresser Zelda Dress]].

She later gains the Star Dress spell that grants her outfits with the powers of her Zodiac keys (of which she has ten).
** Pictured above: Erza Scarlet, who has over 100 outfits, and has the ability to rapidly switch between the (very fancy) {{Powered Armor}}s, [[CovertPervert bunny suits, cat suits]], [[MundaneUtility dresses, pajamas, etc.]] she stores in {{Hammerspace}}. And most of them impart specific abilities to assist her in combat.

* ''Franchise/{{Splatoon}}'' is about two things: ink-based combat and collecting a variety of vibrant, wild outfits for said ink-based combat. The [[StoryBreadcrumbs Sunken Scrolls]] even comment that fashion and [[BloodKnight battle]] are the two dominant interests of an Inkling. [[spoiler:The BigBad of ''Splatoon 2: Octo Expansion'', [[AIIsACrapshoot Commander Tartar]], doesn't consider this a good thing, as it believes the Inklings' obsession with them hinders their true potential as a species. Therefore, they must be exterminated.]]

* Chloe Cerise in ''Fanfic/InfinityTrainSeekerOfCrocus'' has an app that lets her create different types of clothes inspired by the ''Literature/ArsGoetia'', and in the span of Act 1 has gone through four unique attires. She also has a mean swing with a [[PipePain donut holer]] and her wolf-like cloak gives her the firepower ''to destroy an army''.

* ''VideoGame/{{Splatoon}}'' is about two things: ink-based combat and collecting a variety of vibrant, wild outfits for said ink-based combat.

* Assassin Anna Williams from ''VideoGame/{{Tekken}}'' (usually) sports a long qipao as her default outfit, and has a few other stylish others, like [[PrettyInMink fur coats]], [[NiceHat matching hats]] and other long dresses. Lee Chaolan has a tuxedo as a recurring P2 outfit, and he gets an even fancier suit-slash-BadassLongcoat as his default attire in ''7''.

* ''Film/ScoobyDoo'': Daphne, who wears the most outfits throughout the two films, is the most competent fighter of Mystery Incorporated, being a black belt in Martial Arts.

* In ''Fanfic/{{Wonderful}}'', Wonder Star is an aspiring model as well as a super-hero. Her best friend Wonder Red jokes she'll burn a costume if she deems it an affront to her fashion sense.

* Combagals of ''Webcomic/FurryFightChronicles''have different costumes for their matches. That being said, some of them prefer to settle with an IconicOutfit for the rest of their careers.

* Kanaya of ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'' is one of the few [[AllTrollsAreDifferent trolls]] who is in any way interested in fashion, and as a result, she can be seen wearing various other outfits than the default black-shirt-with-sign a lot more than the other trolls. She is also arguably one of the more badass, and her trademark weapon is a tube of lipstick that transforms into a ''[[ChainsawGood chainsaw]]''.
