Avatar: The Last Airbender‘s Toph is probably one of the most memorable characters in the entire cast, but one of her rarest looks has now gotten even more shine thanks to some great cosplay. When Toph was first introduced to the series in the second season, she was in an Earth Bending circuit under the pseudonym of the “Blind Bandit.” This wrestling persona for the young girl was a dynamic contrast from her everyday life where she’s currently being raised like a helpless little girl due to her blindness.

Because she also comes from the high ranking Bei Fong family, she’s also seen with her family in a much different kind of style and demeanor that the Toph we eventually became used to. She’s one of the fan favorites because of her usual brash and tough self, so seeing her in formal gear looked strange from the get go.
But this adorable look for Toph Bei Fong during her debut episode is also a great breakdown of why she decides to travel with the Avatar’s group and decides to teach him Earth Bending in the first place. This dynamic contrast was captured perfectly by artist @mk_ays (who you can find more work from on Instagram here) with an adorably tough take on Toph’s fanciest look. You can check it out below:
