There are many ways to make you look like a princess. You can imitate the appearance of real princesses like Kate Middleton, Princess Diana, or Grace Kelly, or dress like a princess from Disney movies. However, this is not just a matter of appearance. A princess also has body language, grace and confidence!
Step
Method 1 of 3: Dress Like a Real Princess
Step 1. Show the spring style
Many real princesses today no longer wear short ball gowns and headdresses (except in rural locations). Now, people began to associate the figure of a princess with elegance. Think of the princesses, such as Grace Kelly, Princess Diana, and Kate Middleton.
- Keep certain body parts covered. Princesses usually tend to let other people imagine, so you shouldn't wear miniskirts and tops with very low necklines, because a princess will never look that casual.
- Some good choices are lace, body-fitting dresses, and sailor-style neckline tops. All of these exuded a graceful aura.
- Create a balanced appearance. For example, you can wear a loose top with tighter bottoms, or vice versa, such as a wide, flowing skirt with a torso cut top. This is Kate Middleton's favorite style.
- A knee-length skirt instead of a miniskirt is a good choice for someone who wants to be a princess. Skirts that are slightly above the knee are fine, especially if it's a less formal setting.
Step 2. Stick with plain colors
Motifs will always come and go in fashion trends. Of course, you want to make sure that you look your best and are stylish at all times. It's okay to wear patterned clothes once in a while, but make sure that this isn't a fad and will disappear in a matter of months.
- If you want to wear patterned clothes, choose a slightly unusual pattern. For example, you can look at Kate Middleton's patterned blue dress. At first glance, this dress looks patterned with white polka dots, but if you look closely, the motifs are actually pictures of small birds.
- While you should always prioritize neutral and pale colors (because these colors create a sophisticated look), sometimes wear clothes in gemstone colors. For example, royal blue or bright crimson red.
Step 3. Highlight a feature
This is a common dress advice, but it should always be remembered by anyone who wants to look like a princess. A princess will not try so hard to be the center of attention. Instead, he lets his appearance stand out, so this is what makes him attractive.
Try highlighting unusual features, such as your back. Princess Diana wore the famous formal gown, which looked conservative in the front but revealing at the back
Step 4. Master the art of “self-effacing”
A daughter does not try to keep the attention of others always focused on her. Often, it is precisely all the attention that is focused on him even though he doesn't necessarily want it. Choose clothes that don't make you stand out, but look elegant.
- Custom-stitched clothing is a good choice. You need clothes that are the right size for your body, so you will need to order special clothes from a tailor or have the tailor modify existing clothes to fit you. This shouldn't be too expensive, especially if you're only doing it with a few pieces of clothing.
- Kate Middleton has worn some very beautiful custom stitched gray dresses and this is an absolutely gorgeous look for anyone who wants to be a princess. You may not be able to afford the famous designer dresses that she sometimes wears, but you can find good quality dresses at clothing stores and thrift stores.
- One of Princess Diana's famous dresses is a beautiful blue dress with an open shoulder. Consider buying a dress like this when you're looking for princess-style outfits.
Step 5. Put on a custom stitched suit
Again, tailor services are very important! You need clothes that fit perfectly. Suits and skirts are an important part of any princess's wardrobe these days. This suit makes you look strong, professional and elegant. This suit is also part of Princess Diana and Kate Middleton's clothing collections.
A brown or gray suit is a good choice. Remember, you need a low-key look and a good cut
Step 6. Look for casual clothes that look classy
A princess is always noticed by many people, so she needs to always look good and classy, even in casual clothes. If you want to look like a princess, you should emulate this classy casual wear style too.
- One good casual style is jeans, boots (which are always a good choice) and a pretty sweater (in neutral or gemstone colors). Always make sure that these jeans are the right size for you (because jeans that are too loose or too tight aren't elegant at all).
- Another option, based on Kate Middleton's wardrobe, is a high-collared, long-sleeved T-shirt with a wide belt to put a focus on your waistline.
Step 7. Maintain a classy appearance
Wear natural-looking makeup. Princesses tend to wear makeup that won't cover the real face, which reinforces existing traits and doesn't overdo it. If you want to look like a princess, this natural look should be your go-to.
- Always take care of your nails. Don't follow the latest nail art trends. Don't let your nails get cracked or dirty.
- Wash and style your hair well. You may not be Kate Middleton who has thick hair like the princess in Disney movies, but you can cut and style your hair in the best way that is right for your face and your hair type.
Step 8. Wear accessories in a unique way
Accessories are a great way to show off your personality without going overboard and getting too attention-grabbing. Princess Diana was especially known for this.
- Wear a necklace as a crown. You may not have a crown studded with jewels like Princess Diana did, but you can still wear a necklace as a crown (which will only show that you are a princess at heart).
- You can also do something like wearing a pearl necklace upside down, which will accentuate the look of your back instead of the front of your body, especially if you're wearing an open-back dress as well.
Step 9. Look for inspiration from the past
Many princesses like to look for inspiration for their present look from times gone by. You can also do this.
- King Edward's style clothing provides a lot of good choices.
- Try wearing high collars inspired by Queen Elizabeth-era outfits.
- Kate Middleton wears a lot of dresses that seem to be inspired by the '40s style of clothing, so you can also look to the '40s style for inspiration for the princess's elegant fashion.
Step 10. Try wearing different types of hats
Princesses and royals seem to really like wearing hats. Choose a hat that beautifies your face. Look for the perfect hat for tea parties, formal events, and city walks.
The traditional British hat for a wedding is perfect for you to wear on formal occasions
Method 2 of 3: Dress Like a Disney Princess
Step 1. Dress like the Disney princesses of today
Disney princesses are still very popular today, but their style of dress is a bit difficult to follow in everyday activities. Luckily, you can incorporate the style of today's Disney princesses into your own look.
- You need to find the right color combination when looking for things to wear. For example, if you want to emulate Belle's look with her yellow ball gown, look for a yellow '50s dress, gold earrings, and a yellow headdress and matching shoes.
- You can create a princess look with clothes that are more stylish today. For example, opt for green jeans and a purple top, paired with fish scale shoes and shell earrings, for an Ariel-like look.
- You can try things creatively and wear a wide selection of Disney princess-inspired outfits.
Step 2. Create the Disney princess costume
You can easily buy a Disney princess costume, or make your own. The second option is definitely more difficult, but the results will be well worth it. Again, this depends on who the princess you want to be is. This choice is good for attending Halloween parties and other costume parties.
- To make a dress like Belle's yellow ball gown, you'll need a sewing machine and materials that are the right colors, but the results will be gorgeous.
- Pocahontas outfits or Ariel's mermaid outfits are easier to make, as they require fewer materials.
Step 3. Do your make-up like a Disney princess
Most Disney princesses wear subtle, natural-looking makeup, with eye shadow and lip balm to match their outfits.
- Pale gold and peach eye shadows are good choices to create a natural look.
- You will need to line your eyelids with a dark colored eye pencil (dark brown or black) and use an eye shadow that matches your chosen princess look.
Step 4. Have hair like a Disney princess
Your hair will never look exactly like your favorite Disney princess hair, but you can create a hairstyle that makes it look similar. Style your hair in this style and wear it with a Disney princess costume, or you can also combine it with a modern Disney princess look.
Method 3 of 3: Developing the Personality Qualities of a Princess
Step 1. Build your confidence
People are attracted to confidence and they are attracted to princesses because princesses have confidence. Kate Middleton is so attractive for so many reasons, and one of them is her confidence. Emulate her confidence too, not just her dress style.
- Walk up straight with your shoulders back and your head down. Imagine a string pulling gently up the center of your chest, but not arching your back too much.
- Look other people in the eye when you meet them, and smile. A princess must have a beautiful smile.
- Pretend to be confident when you feel insecure. You can trick your own mind into thinking confidently by pretending to be confident. Start with small things, like smiling at people you don't know, then work your way up.
Step 2. Work for good things
Many princesses in the past and present, have been at the forefront of various social changes and improvements in society. If you want to be like a princess, this is very important.
- Be like Princess Ameera Al-Taweel of Saudi Arabia, who fights for equal rights for women and the empowerment of women in the Arab region.
- Be like Princess Mary Elizabeth of Denmark, who has fought on the front lines of poverty eradication.
Step 3. Develop your own elegance
A princess looks graceful in both behavior and appearance. Developing elegance is the key to your appearance as a princess. Grace Kelly is renowned for her grace, body language, and calm personality.
- Practice your body language. Watch how you walk: don't sway like a supermodel, or walk clumsily like a man. You need to display perfect posture and body language when walking and sitting.
- Never rush. You can move quickly without having to run or seem angry or in a hurry. Don't slam doors, run, put your feet on the floor, and so on.
- Calmness is very important. You shouldn't allow things to make you angry or lose control. When you encounter a situation that doesn't go your way, take a few deep breaths and think before you act.
Step 4. Always be ready
Part of a calm and graceful personality is that you are always ready to face whatever comes your way. While it may be beyond your expectations, it is important to face things with readiness.
- Wear the right clothes for each situation. Since you always need to look elegant as a princess, don't wear a long ball gown to tea parties, or when you're out for a walk. Make sure that you dress appropriately.
- Always wear appropriate clothing. You never know what situation will arise. A princess would never visit the store and shop in warm house pants.
- Be kind to everyone and in every situation. However other people treat you, be polite to them. You don't have to accept the unkind attitude of others. However, deal with the unkind attitude with a calm explanation of why it is inappropriate.
Step 5. Don't follow the latest trends
Not only will a princess create her own trends (like Princess Diana), but she won't be trapped by trying to keep up with the latest fashion trends. Always maintain an appearance that is timeless, not too self-effacing, and elegant.
If you want to keep up with the latest trends and incorporate them into your wardrobe, do it discreetly
Step 6. Mix clothes from various sources
No princess wears designs from the same designer. A princess always combines the things she wears, so she displays designs from various designers, especially new designers.
Try ordering tailor-made clothes, even if you originally bought them at a thrift store or a general clothing store (not a designer store)
Tips
- Remember that Grace Kelly, princess of the Principality of Monaco, was not originally a princess. While you may not marry a prince, this doesn't mean you can't dress, behave and live like a princess.
- Princess Diana was very fond of simple black dresses, especially those that were cut to form the body, so you should also consider adding this kind of dress to your wardrobe.
- Learning certain dances (especially ballet) is an excellent way to increase your elegance. This will help you to move more easily and smoothly.
- Pair your outfit with a classic long jacket from the brand Burberry, just like Kate Middleton did.
- You can modify existing dresses to suit different situations, so you can change your wardrobe at a lower cost. For example, change a long skirt to a short skirt, and so on.
