"Now there's an evil term called fairy tale. People go, I want to be a fairy princess. What your fairy princess costume. Again, it's not a costume. We do period historical. So, a lot of things can be fairy princesses. This is a really beautiful wedding dress that someone gave me that they made years ago. And it's very pretty and full, has a big train on it. That could be a fairy princess if you wanted this. You could certainly do something down this way. If you wanted to do like a bustle dress maybe, o.k., this could sort of be fairy princessy, in the pink out of here, kind of give you that kind of idea. This is also a very you know, that could be sort of fairy princessy if you wanted that to be you know, white cream if you thing that's what a fairy princess looks like. Other versions would be like this little dress, that we did for again for the Broadway Babies' things. This was Anna and The King and I. And that's sort of fairy princessy. You know, the purple, very fairy princessy. You know, this was done from Parade, a friend of mine did this for Parade. There's also a dress we made for stock, this was based on a Charles Worth design, and it's done in purple and yellow. And this is very fairy princessy. And then you could do this.

Then back here you could do you know, a white Georgian like this, like Marie Antoinette, and that's sort of fairy princessy. You know, the different ideas and colors. Here's a big fancy red one, you might want to be a red queen you know, who knows. You could do something like in the long gowns like this, this is very like Jane Eyre. And that again could be a fairy princess if you want that kind of thing that's so poofy. Something like you know, these kind of dresses here.
