Kendall Jenner's seventies retro Halloween costume received the approval from none other than the original Wonder Woman herself, Lynda Carter.
The 72-year-old cabaret crooner Instastoried a snap of the 27-year-old Society Management Model dressed as the star-spangled DC Comics superhero with the caption: 'You're doing amazing, sweetie.'
Lynda was quoting Kendall's much-memed momager Kris Jenner, who famously cheered on daughter Kim Kardashian with the same phrase during her 2007 pearl-laden Playboy shoot captured on their E! reality show.
At 5ft10in tall, Jenner is definitely the right height to play an immortal Amazon warrior from the male-free Paradise Island aka Themyscira.
The 818 Tequila founder also shared (https://www.instagram.com/p/CzE2lguvuS7/) a clip of herself performing the spin transformation where Diana Prince magically turns into Wonder Woman with a twist of her body.

It was Carter who originated the 'spin transformation' when she starred in the original ABC/CBS series (1975-1979), and it was later incorporated into the comic books.
The feminist icon was originally created by the American psychologist and writer William Moulton Marston and artist Harry G. Peter way back in 1941.
Patty Jenkins' 2017 film starring Gal Gadot was critically-acclaimed and amassed $822.9M at the box office, but her 2020 sequel Wonder Woman 1984 received dismal reviews and only earned $169.6M.
The third film of the female-led franchise was greenlit in 2020 but canceled last December because it 'did not fit in' newly-hired DC Studios bosses James Gunn and Peter Safran's plans for the DCEU.
In honor of Wonder Woman Day on October 21, James shared his vision for the future of the character by posting a picture of her grinning behind a helmet and wielding a blood-spattered sword.
In January, the powerful pair told THR they greenlit Paradise Lost, a Game of Thrones-style drama set on Themyscira which takes place before the events of the two Wonder Woman films.
'One of our strategies is to take our diamond characters — which is Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman — and we use them to prop up other characters that people don't know,' explained Gunn.
Safran added: 'To build those lesser known properties into the diamond properties of tomorrow.'
