Get Your Tiaras Ready: These Halloween Princess Costumes Are The Belles Of The Ball
Chances are you grew up watching Disney as a kid, and if you were anything like me, Disney princess movies were a big part of your childhood.
It's not just beloved Disney films; other movies and TV shows also have their fair share of princesses, and whether they're saving the world or finding true love, these gals (and one grandpa) look fabulous while doing it.
Under The Sea
Everyone recognizes Ariel from The Little Mermaid. Whether sporting her green tail and purple seashell bra or her pink ballgown dress, she has no shortage of iconic outfits. Although this Redditor decided to replicate one of Ariel's...other outfits.
You could say she made a splash at her Halloween costume party.
The Most Beautiful Ballgown
I think it's fair to say that the scene in Beauty and the Beast where Belle and Beast dance together in the grand ballroom is one of Disney's most iconic scenes.
But just as iconic as that scene is the gorgeous yellow ballgown dress Belle wears, and one Redditor decided to recreate the magic.
The Tiniest Princess
This mom definitely deserves the "Mother Of The Year" award. In order to help her daughter conquer her shyness, she handcrafts costumes of beloved Disney princesses and heroines for her daughter to wear each time she visits a Disney park.
From Cinderella to Belle, Jasmine, and Ariel, this little girl captures the attention of the park employees who love seeing her costumes.
Guys, Just Let It Go
Frozen took the world by storm back in 2013, and parents probably went crazy listening to "Let It Go" for months on end afterward.
Even though the film came out several years ago, it seems like seeing sisters dressed in coordinating Anna and Elsa costumes isn't going away anytime soon. And why should it? Look how adorable they are!
The Ice Queen
Even though Anna and Elsa's costumes are among the most popular for little girls each Halloween, who says adults can't also rock the Ice Queen's iconic look?
From the long braid and smoky pink eyeshadow to her icy blue dress, this Elsa looks ready to make an impression on the commoners who—unlike her—aren't a Disney queen.
Moon Prism Power
Anime enthusiasts will instantly recognize this costume. This woman is dressed as Serena/Usagi aka Sailor Moon aka Princess Serenity from the hit TV show Sailor Moon (lordy, this woman has a lot of names).
It doesn't matter how many years go by, the theme song is catchy as hell. "Fighting evil by moonlight, winning love by daylight..."
Technically A Disney Princess
"I thought you guys would appreciate my daughter's choice of costume for her 'Disney Princess'-themed Daddy-Daughter dance."
For all of you Stars Wars fans out there, guess what? Disney owns the Star Wars franchise so that technically makes Rey a Disney princess.
Colors Of The Wind
In what's probably one of the best princess costumes I've seen, this woman looks like she actually is Pocahontas.
Even though Pocahontas didn't receive as great reviews as Disney had hoped (they actually had higher hopes for Pocahontas than The Lion King, if you can believe that), the soundtrack is an absolute banger and I will fight people on this.
Let's Get Down To Business
It wasn't just Ariel who was known for her outfits, but also Mulan. From her matchmaker outfit to her soldier uniform, she has no shortage of iconic looks.
Seriously though, if whenever you hear the lyric, "Let's get down to business," and don't immediately think to yourself, "...to defeat, the Huns!" then we can't be friends. Dishonor on you and dishonor on your cow.
"Vintage Snow White"
You know you're a Disney princess when you wear a dress and can talk to animals, and this woman is definitely giving on "Disney princess" vibes.
Wearing her "vintage Snow White costume" and sporting a colorful avian companion, this woman looks ready to sing her heart out for all the creatures of the forest.
Rapunzel, Rapunzel, Let Down Your Hair
This woman says that she made her Rapunzel wig and costume all by hand, and from the flowers in her hair to her pink/purple dress, we bet Flynn Rider himself would be impressed with this Tangled costume.
Man, I wish my hair looked like that.
A Whole New World
From her long black hair to her iconic two-piece blue outfit, this woman looks like the spitting image of Princess Jasmine (except for her tiger, Rajah).
Fun fact: When the film Aladdin was released in 1992, Jasmine was actually the first Disney princess to wear pants.
How Far I'll Go
If the film Moana taught us anything, it's that passion can take us anywhere, and who knew Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson could sing? Dressed in her voyager outfit, this woman looks ready to make waves at any Halloween party.
Did you know that Lin-Manuel Miranda, the brains behind the smash Broadway musical Hamilton, also composed the songs for Moana? "You're welcome."
Prince(ss) Leia
Do you know how princes are always men and princesses are always women? Well, this spunky grandpa decided to toss that outdated trope out the window.
I present to you, Princess Leia and R2-D2 the vacuum cleaner.
Princess Peach
Hollywood recently announced an animated Super Mario Bros. film with an A-list voice cast. With Chris Pratt and Jack Black cast as Mario and Bowser respectively, Anya Taylor-Joy was cast as Princess Peach.
But perhaps they should consider this woman for the role instead.
The Princess And The Frog
Wearing her yellow waitress uniform and green coat, his woman is dressed as Tiana from The Princess and the Frog before she gets glammed up for her friend's costume party.
Tiana is known for her world-class cooking like gumbo and beignets, and that's definitely the kind of gal we'd want to be friends with.
Princess Of Power
While many of the costumes you've seen here are handmade by the people wearing them, sometimes our potential princesses just need a little help with their costumes.
Wanting to dress as She-Ra for Halloween, a talented aunt made her young niece a costume, and it looks like she's pretty happy with how it turned out.
Video Game Royalty
Any video game enthusiast probably recognizes this woman's costume—she's Princess Zelda from the series The Legend Of Zelda.
The Redditor explains that aside from the gold jewelry and shoes, she designed and crafted her costume by hand, and only finished putting everything together the night before Halloween.
As You Wish
Decades after its release, the damsel-in-distress and swashbuckling film The Princess Bride remain a quotable cult classic, and this couple adores the movie so much they wanted to recreate that magic.
Dressed as protagonists Princess Buttercup and Westley/Dread Pirate Roberts, this princess isn't just beautiful, but she's talented too, because - you guessed it - she sewed their costumes by hand.
Finally, The Matchmaker
Finally, I want to address that the Disney princess lineup is missing one iconic character who should be a princess: The hot mess matchmaker from Mulan. (Honestly, we can probably all relate to what a dramatic hot mess she is.)
Everyone pack your bags and go home—this woman wins Halloween.
