Snow White, one of the ten Disney Princesses |
Now that Cabaret is over I need to start working towards a final project for my creative practice module this year, and I feel like there's no harm in having it Disney themed, I want to be able to draw on my experiences over the past summer and put it all together in a piece of work. Whether it's designing a dress/costume for one of the princesses, or a even just a fairytale character. Taking elaborate wedding dresses and striping them down to then work on to, whether embroidering or printing onto the fabric.
I do know that I need to start drawing again, go to the Fashion Museum in Bath or even see if it's possible to go to the costume services company in Bristol just to take a look at the costumes. As there is such a difference between fashion and costume as when an item of clothing is a costume for theatre or film it needs to be sturdy, go through countless takes that could be spread over weeks and still look like it did on week one. Now it's not like I'm going to be making anything for an actual show but the costumes worn by the princesses in Disney were just the same, being worn all day but still as magical and full of sparkle by the end of the day as they did at the start. I'd like to start researching into more detailed princess designs and which ones due to their story or fairy tale could have the most sparkle.
