24 IRL Disney Princess Dresses That Look Exactly Like 2015's Versions Of Our Favorite Fairytales

Aurora is an elegant, hopeless romantic, and she’d likely fall in love with an embroidered, blush pink Tadashi Shoji version of her dress. The kimono-shaped sleeves are a modern update to her long triangular sleeves. You can also sweep the dance floor Princess Aurora style in the Beaded Collar Empire-Waist Dress sold at Forever 21. The waist is reminiscent of Aurora’s attached petticoat and its faux pearls and rhinestones practically scream royalty! (BTW, true princess fans know Aurora’s dress is featured as both pink and blue in the original film.)

If there’s any princess who lights up a ballroom, it’s Belle in her golden ball gown. Achieving her glow is a bit of a challenge, but Carolina Herrera comes close with a bright Sunglow Techno Piqué Strapless Gown. The dress’s cascading ruffle is just as dramatic as the elaborate detailing that accents Belle’s gown. The Golden Jacquard Edge to Edge Co-ord sold at ASOS will also help you channel your inner Belle without shelling out a ton of moola! The set is looser interpretation of Belle’s look, but it gleams just as elegantly.

If high fashion princess dresses are your cup of tea, then look no further than Carolina Herrera, who strikes again with the Illusion Blue Silk Gazaar Wave Gown. Cinderella has some serious competition with this icy blue dream of a dress. Its bodice hugs the torso just right before spilling over into a sea of cascading folds, in similar fashion to the petticoat that gives Cinderella’s dress its pinched top and voluminous bottom. The Bonne Jovial Dress in Sky sold by Modcloth is a sexy-yet-formal version of Cinderella’s gown for the everyday princess. Keeping with the princess’s iconic blue, the dress is available in a range of sizes, whether you’re a petite or full-figured babe.

This snow queen has all eyes, well, frozen on her with the way that crystal-blue dress and sheer ice cape bring out her platinum hair and blue eyes. Can we also talk about Elsa’s right knee-high split for a second? Ow ow, girl! Rodarte captures the essence of an ice princess with a sleek and shimmering dress that gives me chills with its icy appearance. The long, chain neckline dress at Zara may not have the same sparkle, but its slim fit and pale hue is enough to make you feel like you have ice powers yourself. Now all you need is a voluminous side French braid!

Princess Jasmine’s co-ord game was strong before any of us even thought about rocking some separates ourselves. Tibi tapped into Jasmine’s spirit during runway season, but with a silky oversized crop top and skirt rather than the princess’s sexy top and harem pant ensemble. However, the look remains true to Jasmine’s attire with a vibrant blue. If the festive design of the Spiritual Hippie Co-ord found at ASOS doesn’t scream Jasmine, then I don’t know what does! The off-the-shoulder crop top and flare of the wide-legged pants are more real-life Jasmine than I could have ever hoped for.

The deep turquoise and gold accents of Merida’s dress has a regal air to it. Just call the Tadashi Shoji Paillette Embroidered Lace 3/4 Sleeve Gown the girly cousin to Merida’s dress. Its embroidered lace makes up for the gold detailing that it lacks (and I kind of prefer it). The Joanna Hope Sequin Maxi Dress by Simply Be is the cheaper, yet elegant equivalent to Merida’s dress. Its embellishments make it princess worthy.

If you’re going to try to be as badass as Mulan you have to look the part! Call her the queen of layering with her Chinese skirt, inside cami, long-sleeved shirt, wrap, and waistband. Whew! Turn to Mary-Kate and Ashley’s The Row collection for looks reminiscent of this warrior princess. The wrap of the garment and its accentuating front tie resemble Mulan’s garb even though it’s devoid of the same bright colors. For an everyday Mulan inspired look, opt for a wrap dress like Anthropologie’s Drawstring Tulip Dress. It’s a simpler version, but keeps with Mulan’s wrap design.

It’s hard to match that buckskin, fringe dress that Pocahontas rocks effortlessly, but I have to give it up to the Ralph Lauren Fringed Pointelle Silk Dress. Its slim fit is probably a little more risqué than Poca would have liked, but its cutouts, embroidery, and fringe are so freaking cool. I can say the same for the Nasty Gal Love Me Two Times Maxi Dress. Not really sure how Chief Powhatan would feel about those ultra sexy double splits though!

Don’t let Rapunzel’s ridiculously long tresses stop you from trying to imitate this princess. You absolutely cannot shy away from her lovely purple dress, but consider rocking a contemporary spin on her traditional German Dirndl. Misha Nonoo offers the Julia Wide Leg Trousers, a color-popping silhouette that’s just as gorgeous as Rapunzel’s dress. Boohoo’s Rose Lace Up Midi Dress in mauve will do the trick if you want to feel like Rapunzel, but you’re on a budget. With its laces going up the back— instead of the front like Rapunzel’s lavender corset— this spin-off has some serious sex appeal.

To achieve Snow’s look, it’s going to take some yellow accessorizing to add to these looks. Marc Jacobs pays more attention to the cherry red and navy of Snow’s bodice. The patchwork-like design of Jacob’s dress is just as daring as the slashing design of Snow’s sleeves. The Artisan Iced Tea Dress in Cherry-Blueberry coming soon to Modcloth is right up the Snow White inspired alley. Picture it now with yellow pumps and matching jewelry!

No one can make frog inspired couture look quite as beautiful as Tiana. Her iconic lily pad ball gown sparkles to perfection — and I’m all about those leafy layers! Even with a sleek and simple design, Rosie Assoulin is on point with Tiana’s iconic green. Add some sparkle and you’ll be a lovely Tiana. Try on the Lovedrobe Embellished Skater Dress found at ASOS if you want to become a frog princess yourself. The bead embellishments are gorgeous and its dainty chiffon skirt could make any girl feel like a true princess.
