Hello! I am planning to cosplay as Phoenix from X-Men. I already bought my pattern (the oh so ordinary Kwik Sew 3052 unitard pattern) and now I am deciding on which fabric to buy. I am deciding to buy online. I have found two fabrics that I like, but I am very confused on which to get.

1) http://spandexworld.com/c3/catalog/product/2636

2) http://spandexworld.com/c3/catalog/product/9021

I am mainly confused about the differences between these two fabrics. Which is shinier? Which is thicker? Which is stretchier? And, for those who know Phoenix (if not, here is a reference picture http://thecarouselpodcast.files.word..._vol_1_101.jpg) which is the best match for the colour? Overall, which do you all think would be better? I would really really like answers to these questions, as I'm very confused!

This one is probably the better of the two

If you scroll down they both have "additional info" sections. This one stretches in two directions (a plus in full body suits), has a bit more stretch (5% more spandex). Maybe not as bright as the other, but the other plus' are there.

This ones comparable if you want a bright green http://spandexworld.com/c3/catalog/product/2611

This is another 4-way stretch that would be good for her gloves, boots, and matching sash

Thanks for replying!! I think I will probably get that one. Do you know how many yards of each fabric I should need? Each as in the green and the gold. I was thinking 2 for green and 1 for gold? Would that be too little?
