It’s only natural to want to take home some keepsakes from the set when you play such a well-known role. In this way, Lynda Carter isn’t an outlier. The actress spoke about it with Fox News in 2016. She revealed, “I happen to have one of the costumes from the [first season’s] ’40s [era] and one of them from the updated version… They’re falling apart in a closet somewhere.”

When Wonder Woman was released in theaters in 2017, Lynda Carter urged that the next actress do the same. The actress, on the other hand, is debating whether or not to keep the keepsake in her closet. During an interview with the Baltimore Sun, she was asked if she planned to donate her costume to a museum. She said, “If they help me restore one of them, I will certainly allow them to show it.” Aside from the actual costume itself, she took some of the accessories as well. In 2020, she took to Instagram to share, “For many years, Wonder Woman fans have asked, ‘Do you still have the bracelets?’… The answer is yes. I do have the bracelets, and wearing them still makes me feel like a total bad***!”
