Latex armor that improves your physique, AND has nipples. :)
A few folks I know were upset about that little detail and I echoed what you said - Snyder is extending the deconstruction to movie superheroes as well, thus, the overarching buff cheesyness of their costumes.
Of course, on the OTHER hand, such a costume better disguises you against discovery of your secret identity. Years ago, a friend and I were talking about 'real life' super costumes and we ended up pretty much there - shoulder pads, lifts in the shoes, a ski mask and a helmet over THAT because otherwise, people are going to find you out. And this was in the relatively early days of pervasive surveillance, that we were talking about this.
Now I'm thinking of the live action Flash we had a few years ago. DUDE. Barry Allen should be slim. He's a RUNNER. :)
