Princess of Wakanda, sister of T’Challa the Black Panther, and the leader of Wakanda’s technological advancement, Shuri is often referred to as the ‘Wakandan Tony Stark’, but is so much more. Played by Letitia Wright in the film, Shuri is responsible for the creation of the cutting-edge Black Panther suit, vibranium transference systems, Wakandan transportation, and medical technology leagues ahead of what’s available in the rest of the world. She was tasked with removing the HYDRA programming from The Winter Soldier’s mind at the end of Civil War.
Designed to be rebellious and authentic, Shuri’s wardrobe is a mixture of the classic Wakandan esthetic the film establishes and more western trends, her casual nature and disregard for things she deems outdated putting her at odds with the very tradition-steeped role of a Princess. The majority of her outfits boast colors as bright as her personality, and make her stand out as one of the best characters in the movie.
This is Natalya Kopylova, the head of the Samara club of Slavic cultures “Vesta”. What she is doing is usually called “фланкировка” in Russian, which, I think, would be translated as flourish or twirling here. It’s a traditional Cossack entertainment, demonstration of dexterity and ability to handle weapon. In the comments to the video on YouTube it was pointed that Natalya wears traditional Orenburg Cossack dress and twirls traditional Cossack weapons shashkas (шашки).
