I know you, I walked with you once upon a dream.
Sleeping Beauty
I wasn’t originally planning on making another princess cosplay, largely because I prefer grungier characters now, find pretty makeup very off-putting, and am absolutely incapable of passing for anything even approaching Aurora’s age. However, this fabric lived absolutely rent free in my head since I saw it. It is nearly impossible to find unique and interesting fabrics in Australia, so I figured if it was still there when I went back 6 months later it was meant to be. Lo and behold, there it was.
I am a blue dress truther, its much nicer than the pink and is the colour that is used for most of the movie, marketing be damned. I love that the colourshift is subtle on the pink. This is a costume where I feel the least like myself, but it’s largely for charity events so that actually helps. I couldn’t have done this without the Self-made Princess book and patterns by Nikita Cosplay, it’s a brilliant resource and I highly recommend.
