I can't explain it, but reinterpreting Disney princess outfits through a more historically accurate lens really, really appeals to me. Beauty and the Beast has always hovered hesitantly in the late 18th century (especially in the earlier concept art), so I redid Belle's gold dress to match 1770's French court fashion.

- Claire, who knows above-the-elbow gloves weren't really in fashion until the early 1800's but is running with it anyway.

I adore historical fashion. I REALLY adore folk and fairy tales. The Disney versions hold a special place in my heart even if I favor the Grimm's version more. THIS is something I've wanted to see for more than a decade and I am not disappointed in the least. These are wonderful, beautiful, and have totally made my day. THANK YOU!!
