So here's my selection of the re-imagined wedding gowns for the remaining princesses.
1. Cinderella:
Both the wedding dresses designed for her actually fits her sophisticated and classic style. I love how she's given the most classic look with full sleeves with full flaired skirt and thin veil. When I thought of selecting wedding gowns for her, exactly these kinds came to my mind. For detailing purpose, I'm showing my selection here. I think lace bodice with sheer lacy sleeves would have brought out her beauty in simplicity.
2. Ariel:
The most ill-fitted wedding gown ever. the overly puffed shoulders just kills everything and even a flared skirt also do not sit well with her petite and slender body frame. It makes her look so much shorter. I'd rather would have given her a mermaid skirt. Not for obvious reasons as she was a mermaid but I think it would flatter lean body structure and would give her better height illusion. Her veil is quite alright, I miss the detailing only here, I'd want to see it on her face as well in some scenes. And her sleeves needs to be of sheer fabric, both long or short sleeves would work for her. She has beautiful hands.
3. Jasmine:
Eh, I do not like her wedding dress at all. In fact, her engagement purple dress is far better than her wedding dress. Her dress looks almost identical to Aladdin's attire which makes it even worse. There are layering and layering of opaque white sheet with the over-broad shoulder design. The veil is also opaque with her hair kind of stuck to it. Even if she were to host white and gold combination, I'd have still chosen a free flowing structure for her free-spirited nature
But if I were to give her a wedding dress, I'd have given her a purple or even soft lilac dress coz it really suits her complexion and her hair looks natural against that. White just makes her look all the more dull. (the pink and blue ones are for structure and design and not color). The skirt would be a simple A line chiffon skirt and upper bodice will have work to compliment her heavy hair. One shoulder dress would work wonders on her if her hair could be done on one side.
4. Mulan:
She looks far better in the wedding dress that she wore in her home rather than the arranged wedding ceremony. The headgear simply doesn't fit her and makes her look funny rather. But I understand why it was so in the movie. I like the color combination of purple and red, which is the traditional wear and how her hair is set loose with just a flower band. Another interesting color could be golden, but in animation I'm not sure how it would have looked. red actually quite suits her.
5. Tiana:
The bayou wedding dress is just way off. She'd never want such a fussy dress, being so down-to-earth and practical person. Her church wedding dress still suits her better but the design could have been better. The criss-cross pattern is weird looking but i guess animation was limited that way. Structurally, I have given her straighter and satin bodice dresses as well. She could do with some trail of the skirt but full length front. Also, I'd have given her sleeves and more crisper neckline than deep U cut.
6. Rapunzel:
It looks as if her purple dress was just made white with a veil on it. It isn't special in any of the aspects. I'd have given her lots of flowers on the dress and blush pink for her most sweet and warm personality. Though pink would take it close to her purple dress but the style should be unique enough to break the similarity. I think she can pull off a more uniquely flower-studded or flower themed dress and it would make her look like a blooming bud herself.
Hope you guys will enjoy! Would love to hear from you all, as always.
