A fun-loving cosplay of Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy will put you back into the holiday spirit.Posted onto Twitter is a Christmas display starring cosplayers Cassandra Ariel and Haley Quinn as Ivy and Harley, respectively. Both of their outfits have been updated for the holiday, with Harley's classic costume trading in its black elements in for green and Ivy wearing red and white flowers instead of her usual plant attire. Though the holiday season has ended, these stunning photos show the iconic DC Comics couple enjoying the holidays with each other.
Both Cassandra and Haley have garnered massive followings on social media. While she uses the handle @CassAriCosplay on Twitter, Cassandra has a combined follower count of over 400 thousand between Instagram and TikTok on her accounts bearing the name @CassandraCosplays. Haley is also active with cosplays on these social media platforms, using the handle @hauntedhostess and holding over 1.1 million followers between TikTok and Instagram.
The duo's cosplay came at a time right before fans of the comic book couple saw heartbreak between the two characters. Though the relationship appeared to be solidified following their first in-continuity kiss in Batman #117, Harley and Ivy parted ways in Harley Quinn #10 so that Ivy could discover who she really is following her most recent rebirth. The issue released mere days after Christmas, with Cassandra and Haley's cosplay arriving just a day prior to the book.
Of course, outside of DC Comics' main continuity, Harley and Ivy's relationship is going strong. Their romantic pairing was a main focus for Season 2 of the Harley Quinn animated series now on HBO Max, with the finale featuring the two driving off together. Though a release date has yet to be announced, Season 3 is on the way for fans of the series, with a tie-in comic title -- Harley Quinn: The Animated Series - The Eat, Bang, Kill Tour -- available to hold them over until then.
The current ongoing Harley Quinn series in comics is helmed by writer Stephanie Phillips and artist Riley Rossmo. The next issue set to release is Harley Quinn #12, and while Ivy is not mentioned in the solicitation, the book will see Harley try to save Gotham City from its newer villain Keepsake. The issue is currently set to release on Feb. 22 from DC Comics.
When Harley and Ivy might reunite in DC's main continuity remains to be seen, but Cassandra and Haley's cosplay does give fans a glimpse at how their Christmas might be spent together.
