I Show How 10 Disney Princesses Would Look If They Were Real Girls In 2019

What if Disney Princesses were real girls in 2019? I took 10 professional models and transformed them into Disney Princesses for a photoshoot.

These shoots took months to plan but were so fun to shoot. I bought all of the clothes myself and tried to match them well with each princess. It was really a challenge trying to find something that still fit the theme but was still in style (in 2019). I worked with makeup artist Hayley Kassel for most of the princesses and makeup artist Courtney Hagen for Snow White.

Just a few things I wanted to share about this series:

1. The model for Mulan (Serena) is Chinese. We shot her photos in Seoul, South Korea, as she lives there. That’s why you’ll see Korean in the background for one of the photos!

2. Tinkerbell is not a princess, but I still wanted to add her because I love her character.

3. Sophia who portrays Pocahontas is Mexican, French and Native American.

4. I styled every model, with the exception of ‘Jasmine’ (who is a stylist and picked her own outfit!)

    These aren't "real" girls- they are lovely but, they seem like Instagram chicks

    These women in no way, reflect their characters and I thought boredpanda was finally through with this ridiculous fixation on Disney characters. May I remind the staff that very few of your readers are pre-teenage girls.

    May I remind the community this article was submitted by one of its members, NOT bp staff, and that these women do reflect how a young adult would dress in today’s world? Also that in at at least four of these, the model is as covered or more covered up than the inspiration?

    Just what is this obsession with Disney princesses? I've seen so many similar articles on social media and I just don't understand the fascination.

    Lilia as Ariel is so dizzying beautiful *_* I like them all but I wished to see a more natural look. Makeup is princessy esp for this occasion.. But I think would've highlighted their striking resemblances by just going natural, imo :)

    I agree both on the Lilia thing and the make up

    *said the prince looking for Cinderella* "Forgive me fair maiden, dost thou a*s fit into this thong that my true love lost at the royal ball this fortnight ?" Oh-oh, I got the feeling I said something downvotey again :D

    Not a fan of the Disney Princess genre, but I think these are cool because they're not overly literal.

    Tiana and Ariel were super accurate I thought!

    Cinderella won't lose her shoe! Ruins the entire story. She should be in at least a slip on.

    I really loved these, all the models were gorgeous and none of the characters were white washed and their outfits fit with the characters! Well done!
