Recently on the David Charles Childrenswear blog, we discussed fashion trends for kids on how to dress like Tinkerbell, showing how easy it is to recreate iconic looks. While traditional fashion trends may not be on your child’s agenda, dressing like someone they love certainly could be. And there are twelve Disney princesses to inspire us.
Here are a few easy tips on how to help your little one cross the fantasy fashion line into Princess territory while maintaining a chic balance so she can step out in style on special occasions.
How to Make a Princess Dress for Your Little Girl
As each Disney Princess has their special skills and qualities, we know your little girl’s favourite princess probably changes day-to-day. After all, why be just one, when you can be all 12, right? However, if we pick a few of the classic princess styles, you can swap and change a few details and accessories depending on who the flavour of the day is.
Cinderella
Cinderella is a great example of how to style your little lady like a Disney Princess. Wondering how to make a Cinderella ball gown? All you need to know are the key elements that bring Cinderella’s look together, and it’s straightforward from there.
Dress: Baby blue with white details
Accessories: Glass slippers, black necklace and blue headband
Our peal blue ball gown with puffed sleeves is a dream dress for any Cinderella fan. With its timeless ballgown silhouette, this dress can easily be used for other Disney Princess characters, as well as weddings parties and theatre evenings. Put your little one’s hair into a bun with a matching blue headband, and finish the look off with a black necklace and silver sandals.
Princess Tiana
They say you have to kiss a lot of frogs to find your prince, which is exactly what Princess Tiana had to do. After she broke the spell, Tiana becomes a princess, as demonstrated by her beautiful ball gown.
Dress: Soft shade of green with floral corsage details
Accessories: Silver necklace and a leaf crown
The green brocade party gown with a gold floral detailing and a ruffled skirt is perfect for recreating Princess Tiana. All she needs now is a floral headband with her hair up high. Just make sure real frog kisses are off-bounds!
Belle
A tale as old as time, Belle from Beauty and the Beast is one of the most popular and well known of the Disney Princesses. So it’s essential to get her character’s look just right.
Dress: Distinctive yellow
Accessories: A gold hairpiece and a single rose
The yellow dress in the Disney movie is quite vibrant, which may make it more challenging to wear for other princesses and on different special occasions. So, we suggest going for a more subtle tone to make it a more versatile option. Your little one will be the belle of the ball in this champagne and gold ballerina dress. If her hair is long enough, you can style it half up half down and add a yellow or gold hair clip. Bonus points if your little one has a love of reading just like Belle!
