A Fairy-tale Job

I love a creative challenge.
So I was excited when Celebrate Kids,
the company Steph works for, asked me if I could make the Disney Princesses costumes
...to look like the ones at Disneyland.
Of course I can do it
...at least I thought I could
...well I'd give it my best effort.

We started with Snow White....the costume they needed the most. So after combining two patterns, designing a sleeve and a few other details... a lot of hours...a few steps forward and a few stupid mistakes

....I came up with this.

The corset lacing is on both sides so the dress will fit a range of sizes.

Steph was my model and guinea pig as we figured out how to make it easy enough for a would-be-princess to get dressed by herself
...in a car.
It is worn with a hoop (didn't get a picture with the hoop on) to give the skirt a lot more fullness
It was so fun to create.
And they liked it...alot.

Next Princess...Cinderella.
But first I have to make two bridesmaid dresses.
