Travel back with me to a time when young Kitty Pryde designed her own super-hero outfit (Warning--NSFHE (Not Safe For Human Eyes)):
And leave it to Magneto to make the realization it took Wolverine 30+ years to come to:
Kids should never design their own costumes!!(Oh, and obviously, Wolverine's right, the X-Men and New Mutants never, never EVER sent teens into combat...except for every issue ever.)

Ah, good times. Kitty was made a grown-up far too soon.
Her costume looked pretty good compared to when Jean redesigned the original X-men's looks with their first individual costumes
I have to disagree, Tom. While Jean's costume certainly wasn't good, at least it was clean, and not a haphazard, clashing assualt on the eyes.
I guess I was thinking about the one she designed for Angel.. the red suspenders over yellow with a blue cowl and striped wristbands
Good point--Warren's costume was one of the 10 worst of all time.
Who knew Kitty was colorblind?
