Before there was the Batgirl we know and love there was Batwoman, who was meant to be a one-off and yet was so popular she stuck around for a minute and even had her own Bat-Girl sidekick.
But Batwoman and the original Bat-Girl were left behind in the Silver Age, making room for Barbara Gordon to don the cape and cowl and become the more enduring version of Batgirl.

But this infographic created by Fun.com isn't about her abilities- it's all about her costume, which has gone through some colorful changes over the five decades since she made her first appearance in 1966.
