Adult Disney Princess Halloween Costumes: How Custom Fairytales are Created
| October 26, 2011 at 9:01 AM EDTIt’s refreshing to know that sweet fairytales can come true, even in our modern society of progressive technology and annoying Reality TV show stars. With both Halloween and Project Runway season 9’s finale looming, pretty dresses are on our minds.
If you’re a hardcore Disney fan then you’re going to appreciate this. Chances are at some point (probably for Halloween, but maybe any Birthday Party or Costume Party) you’ve wanted to dress up as your favorite Disney Princess. But Adult Disney Princess Halloween Costumes are generally looking a bit cheap despite the high cost of the price. And that’s fine for the average fan. But if you have the money (or just want some inspiration) it’s time to look at the custom made work being handmade on Etsy shops. There’s some truly spectacular visuals for you to see.
This Adult Disney Princess Rapunzel Dress is by PlayfulPrincesses on Etsy. $220.00
Most of the Princess Dresses from that shop are for children, however. Such as this darling Disney Belle Costume for Girls here, ready to ship. $55.00
This Ariel Wig for Adults is ready to ship from LittlePennyLane on Etsy. It’s super long and glamorous. $425.00
Here’s the Tangled Rapunzel Wig Adults Version also from LittlePennyLane. $575.00

And the shop also has a Sleeping Beauty Costume for Adult Women, here. $899.95
Many, many custom adult Disney Princess Halloween Costume are available from one shop on Etsy in particular, Neverbug Creations. The below are all from the shop, located here.
Tangled Rapunzel Costume for Women $600.00
Adult Pocohontas Costume for Women. $550.00. Emily Field’s Pretty Little Liars Halloween Costume was a Native American Princess, so she could have opted for this.
Little Mermaid Dress. $600.00. Ariel wore a few different dresses in the Disney movie, the pink and white gown was certainly a stand-out for fans. This is what she wore after her first bath with legs. If only we all had such glamorous dresses to wear after our bathing.
When searching for The Little Mermaid Blue Dress, there’s a few dresses that you might mean. Ariel wears a shimmering blue dress at the end of the Disney Film when she is turned into a human by her father. But she also wears a blue dress during her tour of the town (dancing, kiss the girl, driving the buggy) and an additional ball gown. This one is $700.00
Snow White’s Dress is iconic. Take a look at this custom dress. $600.00
The way most of these dresses are made is through custom orders, so contact each individual shop for more information. Each seller has notes about their designs, and make notes about being willing to alter things as you’d like them. The process is intimate, although without a fitting in person the buyer must supply her own measurements. And, as a warning, sometimes further adjustments are needed. Fans of this site know that on Project Runway, even with the models measurements, further fittings are always needed. But that is a frenzied environment, and most of those dresses are made to fit perfectly taut against the skin on wafer thin professional models, unlike these fashions. But all of this talk of Project Runway… don’t you wish they’d do an inspired Disney Princess Dress challenge?
Don’t forget that the Project Runway season 9 finale airs this Thursday!
With their passion for the Classic Animated Films, these seamstresses have merged the world of Disney closer to reality for us. Whether you use these as fashionable halloween costumes, costume party dresses or just as something lovely to look at today, it’s a nice break from reality.
