DISCLAIMER: THIS IS NOT ME IN THE PHOTO!! THIS IS MY SISTER LEAH!!

This is the costume of Princess Aurora (Sleeping Beauty) that I made for my 17 year old sister Leah. Leah looks alot like me so people mistake her for me. This is not me in the photo, this is Leah my sister.

This wig was fun to make. I wanted to get the bangs similar to the bangs how they do at Disneyland but I wasn't able to accomplish that. I do like how the curls came out. I made the ringlets by taking a straight wig and adding rollers, then dunking the wig in boiling water.

This dress actually has 16 gores in it, and underneith she is wearing a corset that is squeezing her waist down to 23 inches. We decided that she needed an unnaturally small waist because Aurora had one in the movie. It needed to be victorian-small... so I kicked out a corset for her in a few hours.

Awesome job. 23 inches = ouch. Props to your sister. "Kicked out a corset in a few hours...."
You make it sound so easy lol.

Only that Peach looks nothing like this at all x_x;

it took me 3 hours. Corsets are fairly straight forward, just alot of stitching.

uh huh, so then the hot water will make it keep it's shape. What about spiking wigs, you ever done that? I can't seem to make my sister's sasuke wig stay up.

spiking wigs depends on the product you use. There's only one store where we get the hair product we use for our wigs and I forgot the name of it ^^

So pretty... the costume is well made, but the photography really shows it off in a more artistic way.

Though I may criticize art, I still appreciate it.
