I went with the mid 1860's for Cinderella's dress, the transitory period where the cage crinoline takes on a more elliptical shape and moves towards the back. Not that it accounts for Lady Tremaine's sweet 1890's getup, but it's also not unheard of to see it worn alongside Anastasia and Drizella's early bustle dresses. It's also worth noting that it was made by a fairy godmother, so it make sense that her tastes would be a little behind the times.

Not to mention background characters, who seem pretty firmly planted in the middle of the century: [link]

I couldn't settle on a visual motif for the details in this one- shoes, pumpkins, mice- so I just gave her some stripes and gothic lace to make up for it. OH ALSO I drew her losing her right shoe instead of her left and only recently realized it. Whoops.

Nothing to it, really by *shoomlah. Just one part of a lavishly beautiful set of illustrations - the gorgeous (not to mention historically accurate) costume design, so well-researched and rendered with flawless linework and exquisite coloring - no wonder this series is so famous!

I've actually seen more French versions of Cinderella..The book I grew up with had her in Marie Antoinette style, with the SUPERGIANT HAIRDO. Cinderella's hair was the biggest in the room! Clearly this is why she was the prettiest! Crazy to learn about the real hair fashion being that way years later. I wish I still had that book!

This is a fantastic take on her! I adore the gloves, though I wish that and the underskirt were a slightly lighter shade of cream/parchment. I also wish that she was a little paler--simply because I think that would make some of the other parts of her outfit pop. Also, I find the pure black/charcoal choker a bit solid. I find it makes her more corporal--and I always loved the Cinderella dress because it was so ethereal--fairy made. (Yes, I know, most of my comments where to some extent to that effect, sorry.) I do love your take though!

Very pretty!
Her cleavage might be a bit on the
enormous side, but it's a lovely
picture. Good!

Holy crap, your video on this was very enlightening! Was really amazing to watch this go through a 7 hour transformation, wow you really spend a lot of time and getting everything perfect, I really admire that!
I also never thought of drawing lines that way, seems better to get cleaner lines! really awesome job!

This one is incredibly beautiful and detailed too..I only wished the colors resembled more like the original movie with the silver/white/blue dress and the light orange/blonde hair...but I still love it.
