Victorian Fairy Tale Couture

This 'True Cinderella' Editorial Features Fairy Tale Costumes

— September 25, 2013 — Pop Culture
The 'True Cinderella' editorial for Glassbook Magazine features striking fairy tale costumes inspired by the Victorian era. This eye-catching series updates fairy tale fashion by incorporating shortened gowns and sparkling accessories.

These shots seem to focus on characters from the story Cinderella, including the evil step sisters, the wicked step mother, and Cinderella's prince charming. The stylish step sisters are seen rocking sparkling red eye patches. They also have long dark feathers incorporated into their perfectly coiffed hairstyles. These accessories help these women stand out as villains. The model portraying Cinderella wears a golden dress and natural makeup tones. Unlike the sinister step sisters, she looks virtuous and pure. Photographer Emily Gualdoni perfectly captures the essence of Cinderella in this stunning editorial.

These modernized Victorian era looks may inspire some seriously chic fairy tale costumes this Halloween.
