The Disney Princesses and Villains Might as Well Scoop These Dresses Right Off the Runway
It's been a long Fashion Month. So, forgive us if we're in the mood to have a little fun with the designs that came down the Fall '16 runways. As gorgeous as the gowns might be that cap off our favorite collections, they weren't made for you, nor the celebrities sitting front row. No, these dresses are fit for the Disney princesses — and some villains, too.
Open your mind to the possibility of Ariel in Delpozo. And how about spunky Megara taking on the sexiest number in Carolina Herrera's whimsical lineup? Then there's Maleficent in Marc Jacobs's dramatic offering. We can picture it. Read on to keep your imagination sharp this Fashion Month, because we're about to get a little playful.
Anna Wearing Delpozo
Anna's shaking off the cape and slipping into her go-to A-line silhouette. She's still in cobalt blue, a shade that plays up her locks, and florals too! This updated gown is just way more modern.
Merida Wearing Gucci
The gorgeous red shade of Merida's hair comes through on this shimmering green Gucci dress. While Merida's typical gown is cinched at the waist, she's slipping into a breezy tunic and athletic socks to show off her sporty-meets-glam style.
Belle Wearing Christian Siriano
If Belle wore a crop top, goodness knows it'd be by Christian Siriano, one of the most elegant ball gown designers at NYFW. She's forgoing her elbow-length gloves for bell sleeves and a poufy skirt for tiered ruffles.
Cinderella Wearing Dolce & Gabbana
Cinderella herself pretty much walked down Dolce & Gabbana's Fall '16 runway when the designers staged a fairy-tale show. The princess's gown gets an extra dose of texture and shimmer, and it's shortened to midi length to better see those glass slippers. Rather than a headband and a choker, Cinderella's accessorized with a dazzling blue ribbon.
Ursula Wearing Sibling
Sibling is a London Fashion Week favorite for its dramatic aesthetic, so we weren't surprised to find something purple, black, and luscious to meet Ursula's edgy standards.
Megara Wearing Carolina Herrera
Megara has plenty of attitude and a toned figure she loves to show off with a good formfitting dress. This sheer-paneled, strappy number from Carolina Herrera would look totally trendy on the Grecian goddess.
Maleficent Wearing Marc Jacobs
Maleficent's trading in her horns for swan-like shearling. While she's in a puffer rather than a cape, bright lavender accents still swirl their way down the sequined train of this MJ skirt.
Mulan Wearing Rosie Assoulin
Mulan's sleek column gown, while comprised of geometric shapes, is getting deconstructed in the form of the most Instagrammed gown from Rosie Assoulin's Fall '16 presentation. Her hemline's shortened, so she can show off her pumps, and she's adding a bit more color with playful accessories.
Snow White Wearing Jenny Packham
If Snow White's outfit was graced with frilly details and a bit more structure, she'd be wearing Kate Middleton's favorite designer, Jenny Packham. Packham included this belted gown in her Fall '16 collection, which totally speaks to Snow White's go-to color scheme; it's just a touch more muted.
Tiana Wearing Reem Acra
Petals are transformed into a satin waterfall skirt and a metallic beaded bodice in Tiana's new outfit. She'll slip off her gloves and headpiece — all the better to show off the intricate structure of this Reem Acra dress.
Ariel Wearing Delpozo
Ariel's working a metallic sheen reminiscent of her tail and a chiffon skirt that mimics her iconic hairstyle. Forget the shell bra — collars are way cooler.
Cruella de Vil Wearing Marc Jacobs
Checks mark the spot for Cruella de Vil when it comes to her signature look — along with a big furry coat. This oversize Marc Jacobs silhouette was born to be on a dark woman.
