A Sleeping Beauty costume is always a popular choice for women and little girls alike. For generations Sleeping Beauty has captured the hearts of little girls everywhere. When they grow up to be “big girls” they still love the special romance of the story and the costume. You can find more ideas here. If you’d like to dress up as Aurora (also known as Sleeping Beauty) it’s very easy to make or order your costume. You can choose either a pink or a blue gown. Since the three fairies kept changing Sleeping Beauty’s gown from pink to blue to pink and back again, either color will do. So just choose your personal favorite.
If you’re handy with a sewing machine or know a seamstress, you can come up with the original princess gown of your dreams. Don’t forget to match your jeweled slippers to your gown.
However, if you aren’t a natural blonde you’ll need a long, flowing, blonde wig. Since Aurora is the name of the Roman goddess of dawn, she should have hair to match her radiant name.
You’ll also need a tiara for the crowning glory of your costume. All princesses need tiaras. You can choose a simple sparkly tiara, or one with either pink or blue jewels to match your gown.
It’s best to keep your makeup on the lighter, on the more demure side. Choose youthful pastel colors. Princesses should always look their best. But simple natural beauty is the way that a princess should be presented to her waiting public.
If making your own costume is something that’s beyond your abilities, there is a wonderful costume store online where one can simply order the perfect Sleeping Beauty Halloween Costume.
