Marvel Endorses TikTok Creator’s X-Men-Inspired Outfits (For A Good Reason)

Creativity definitely attracts attention, and TikTokers have been catching eyes and drumming up excitement for various projects in recent years. One notable way these social media users stand out is through cosplay. When someone brings a unique twist to the concept, they might catch the eye of industry giants like Marvel.

Take @lexwipp, for instance. She specializes in creating outfits for those who wish to closet cosplay, allowing them to wear professional business suits that secretly pay tribute to their favorite characters through clever color coordination, cuts, and fits. These outfits are sleek and professional, making them highly noticeable. From a yellow dress with black details in homage to Wolverine to a green turtleneck inspired by Rogue, her sartorial choices are both attractive and thoughtful.

Recently, @lexwipp caught Marvel’s attention in a significant way. The company responded to her video featuring X-Men-inspired outfits from the movies, TV series, and comics with the comment, “[R]eady for battle (aka monday meetings).” This acknowledgment left the TikToker shocked and delighted, as evidenced by her reply: “MARVEL WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE” accompanied by a crying emoji.

This isn’t the first time @lexwipp’s outfits have gained attention. She has created office wear cosplays for other characters, further showcasing her creativity.

@lexwipp has turned her success on TikTok into a thriving niche. She’s designed office outfits inspired by “The Avengers,” “Sailor Moon,” and even the board game “Clue,” among other properties. Her account also features lifestyle and advice videos, and she actively engages with her followers, answering questions and providing guidance. She participates in traditional cosplay as well, sometimes featuring her cat in her videos. Her content mainly targets millennials, and while she hasn’t delved into Disney Bounding yet, she has certainly carved out a unique space in the cosplay community.

The results of her hard work are evident. @lexwipp has amassed over 15 million likes and boasts more than 557,000 followers on her TikTok account. She also occasionally attends conventions, cosplaying a variety of characters. While this might be the first time Marvel has noticed her, it’s clear that @lexwipp has a bright future ahead. She may very well become the cosplay queen of TikTok.
