What Would Historically Accurate Disney Princesses Look Like?

One artist, Claire Hummel has taken it upon herself to answer this question. She shares her creations at her Tumblr blog and her DeviantArt page. Claire has been sharing these visions since March of this year and according to her FAQ, plans to continue giving more Disney characters a fashionistically (yes, I just made that word up) accurate twist. I encourage you to visit her blog and seek out each original posting, as she goes into detail about the process behind her decisions for each look as well as sharing some videos of the process. In the meantime, I thought I’d post all of the current princesses she has shared to date – EDITED to add – she has now added Mulan, Tiana, and Rapunzel, which I’ve updated below. Check out her links above for more info and to purchase prints! (click to enlarge)

About Suzannah Otis

A child of the 80's, Zanna grew up on a never-ending quest the next best sticker for her collection (mood stickers were best, with fuzzy stickers a close second). Her first true love was a misplaced extra-terrestrial, followed by a handful of Ewoks, the entirety of the original EPCOT Center, and sipping her first iced coffee at age 10. All of these things shaped her life growing up outside of Boston where she climbed trees and roller-skated till the streetlights came on.

Zanna has lived in Florida for the most part since 1995. Now living and blogging in Walt Disney World's backyard for the past 10+ years, she is the mother of 2 adult humans, a 10-year old (also human) and 3 cats, and the wife to one husband, who puts up with all of the above. She tries to find that one little spark in everything, and thanks you very much for taking the time to read this.
