i'm still in love with anything wedding related.
and to satisfy this obsession, I had an idea to draw each of the 10 disney princesses in a wedding dress thats historically accurate (or culturally) fuzed with the official gown that Disney created for them.
this was inspired by

Rapunzel, my favorite Disney princess!
Her official wedding gown:

Most of the historical aspects I got from Shoomlah. Rapunzel's time period was as much of a headache as Mulan's.
I think the best explanation for my design choices are represented here: findingcorona.tumblr.com/fashi…
Rapunzel's dress is more cultural than historical. Tangled is heavily influenced by Western European clothing from 1400s-1800s. There is no clear time period except for Mother Gothel belonging in Medieval times (it was done on purpose to show how much older she was compared to the rest of Corona). In the end, I decided to go with a fusion dress taking designs from the Renaissance and Germany Regency (cuz it was mentioned elsewhere Rapunzel's puffed sleeves were like Snow White's and that was Germany). And because I wanted to do a dress shape I haven't drawn yet.
Even though Rapunzel didn't have a clear time period, for sure her dress is not suppose to be white like in the Disney short. White wasn't a thing until Queen Victoria in the 1840s. So I continued with "best dress owned". I chose the color gold to fit within the story of Tangled. Rapunzel is a princess, of course she'd get a new dress but because her hair was no longer blonde, I let the gold represent her hair.
Details of her dress of course are found all over Tangled and Rapunzel's purple dress.

I love the dress, and I adore the research behind it--you put sooo much work into it and it shows--it is absolutely lovely. Would be cool to see animation done with this much respect to history. Not Disney, cuz Disney sucks now, but someone else who does animation. Your art style is prettier than Disney, imo.
