Jasmine | 茉莉公主

Finally, my third Disney Princess makeover is here! Fresh and hot (just finished it right before I composed this post)! Princess Jasmine, an exotic, fiery beauty from the Middle-east. She is fierce, intelligent and rebellious (in a good way). What she is after is a chance to see the world, a chance to experience the world, the world outside the castle wall until she met Aladdin. After all, she is still a royal blood. Freedom is never a royal thing but, with Aladdin, she found the freedom to love. She represents "freedom".

She is the only Arabic/Middle-east princess, so her dress will be more oriental and exotic. The Middle-east area  is famous for their stunning colour fabric and exquisite jewelery, so as a princess, this must be included in her dress. Now the question is, skirt or pants? Skirt looks pretty and elegant, but pants looks strong and independent. As for Jasmine, I say pants is suitable for her, so here is the design.

                                                                                                                                                                   

终于，第三个迪斯尼公主改造诞生了！既新鲜又热腾腾的（才刚画完 > <）。茉莉公主，一个来自中东具有异国风情的美女。她强悍，聪明伶俐，也挺叛逆的。他梦想着城堡外的生活；一个未知的世界，一段新的体验。直到遇到阿拉丁，她才如愿以偿。身为皇族的她，没什么自由可言，可是阿拉丁让她体验了自由与爱。她代表着“自由”。

她是迪斯尼唯一一个中东地区的公主，所以她的衣衫比较东方情调。中东地区以五彩斑斓的布料与璀璨夺目的首饰闻名，这些绝对得在茉莉公主的衣着中体现。可是问题是，裙或裤？裙子让她看起来漂亮与优雅；裤子却看起来落落大方。考量茉莉公主的性格，裤子绝对是首选。

My inspiration is her name, Jasmine, so I used jasmine flower as the main element for my design. From the headpiece to her shoes, everything is designed in jasmine flower patterns. The jewelery will be in gold with white opal for the flower. At the collar, a fine designed jasmine pattern lace is sewn on with a deep v-cut down to the belly and tied up with a jasmine gold belt. 

I struggled quite a lot on the colour. I tried pink, blue, red, yellow, black, green, but all failed. At last, I went with light cyan, a colour that represents a joyful personality and a love for life.

                                                                                                                                                                   

我的灵感来自于她的名字——茉莉。由此，茉莉花成为了我的主要设计元素，从发饰到鞋子都有茉莉花的设计。首饰将会是由金叶片与白蛋白石花而组成。领子的设计由非常细腻的茉莉花蕾丝设计，一路沿着V领的边延伸到肚脐，再由一条金色茉莉花腰带束缚着。

颜色方面，我可就头痛了。试了好多颜色都失败，有粉红，红，蓝，黑，绿等等。最后我选择了代表乐观与热爱生命的青蓝色。

This time I specially posted a close-up picture to show more details on it. I added a lot of details in this design to enhance the exotic and exquisite feeling. I personally love the collar so much!

So, yeah! stay tune for my next update. 

                                                                                                                                                                   

这一次，我特地发了一张近看图，让你能够欣赏我精心设计的领子与珠宝。我个人非常满意这个领子的设计！

请期待我的下一个更新吧！
