The costume is a live-action version of the newest updated version that they put into the Comics this year.
I don't have a problem w/ the lack of stars and stripes. WW is the one character who hasn't had any real updates to her costume over the years, unlike Bats and Supes gets in the comics. The stars and stripes were there when she came into being because she was a superhero during a time when the world was at war - I've got no problem w/ toning down the patriotic flares. I like the leggings also - it's nice not seeing her butt-cheeks hanging out.
I do think the fabric looks like it's in danger of squeaking though. Other than that, I like it.
