Snow White | 白雪公主

In my previous blog post, I introduced my personal project, Sanzose x Disney Princess, and here is the first post for it, Snow White. She is my very first Disney Princess which I watched when I was 7 years old and I was so amazed of how she communicates with animals with her lovely voice.

Snow White, as I know, is probably the most gentle and sweetest princess of all. She is naive, kind, sensitive and helpful. While I was doing the design for her, I considered some points: her elegant gesture, her sweetness, her love to sing and dance. She reminds me of the lovely spring blossoms.

In order to do so, I need a nicely tailored long sleeve dress with a shapeless skirt, flowing down her ankle to show elegance of her gesture and figure. The shapeless skirt flows when she dances and shows her youthfulness by this girlish cutting. I thought of some flower prints or flower lace to enhance the idea of spring blossoms. So at the end, I came out with this sketch.

                                                                                                                                                                   

在之前的部落格中，我介绍了这个自主策划。第一弹，白雪公主！白雪公主是我七岁时第一个看的童话。那时候对于她用歌声与动物们沟通的技巧感到很惊讶。

对我而言，白雪公主是公主系列中最天真无邪也是最甜美的那位。她的善良，无邪，热心助人的个性很是珍贵。为了设计一件适合他的衣服，我考虑了她的优雅举动，甜美的外表和喜爱唱歌跳舞的性格。不知怎么地，白雪公主让我联想到了春天花开的景象。

为了符合上述几点，我需要一件贴身优雅的长袖与飘逸的长裙。飘逸的裙子不单单体现了她那甜美的性格，也让她翩翩起舞时看起来更加动人。为了达成春暖花开的视觉感受，花朵图案或是蕾丝更是不可或缺。最终，起笔了这一张草稿。

The main concept is the spring blossoms. I retained the Disney Snow White's trademark colour as it is so strong that you can immediately know she is Snow White. Furthermore, I have used the same fabric as the dress to tie her hair up to show the sweetness of a young girl as Snow White. So that's it! Time to put it on Snow White!

                                                                                                                                                                   

我的主要概念是花开的春天。为了使大家能一眼认出白雪公主，我运用了迪斯尼原创色系作为我的色调。我也运用了同一个布料为发带，衬托白雪公主那青春动人的容颜。所有条件都达成了，事不宜迟，开画！

When I drew it, I changed the design around the waist and made the blue flower lace fade off at the end of the dress. So, this is the final version of my Snow White costume. The dress is in yellow, with blue flower lace sewn on. Same as the dress, the hair band is in yellow with blue flower lace sewn on as well. The red scarf belt enhances her waist figure and also adds a warm lively colour to it. 

This is my first Disney Princess makeover. What do you think? Hope you like it. Leave a message and let me know your opinion. The next princess will coming soon.

                                                                                                                                                                   

当我画到一半时，我修改了她腰间的花朵设计为慢慢向裙角淡出。整件裙以黄色为基调，蓝色花朵蕾丝锋在布料上，添加了做工的精致感。发带也以同样的方式制作。腰间的红色腰带为整体增添了温暖与活泼的色调。

这是我的第一个迪斯尼公主改造。觉得如何？留个言，让我知道你的想法。也请期待下一个公主的改造。
