The clasps were a genius idea. Seriously, this is more than a dress, its problem solving you can wear

[@brianaschmidt910]

Actually most historically accurate victorian ballgowns had many buttons and clasps to hold everything in place so I'm extra pleased with this dress

Is it difficult to stop twirling in this dress because I would never stop twirling. This is so glorious and ugh, the movement in those layers! I am literally sitting with my hands clasped with a big ol' smile and actual heart eyes. It is exquisite. You should feel so proud! It's incredible.

I think this dress is actually more beautiful than the movie version, because I know it’s real, it’s a real dress with no stage shortcuts or cinematic touch ups. I’ve watched every video in this series as it’s come out and I am in total awe of you.

[@alexistouss40]

The efforts and Dreams put into the dress makes it much more beautiful in some ways

[@cherrylee1103]

my thoughts as well.

[@sarahdirienzoi]

Pretty sure part of the appeal of recreating this dress was because it wasn't made with a ton of short cuts for the film either. Bella talked a lot about figuring out what tools/fabric/patterns and whatnot to use based on what the real dress would have used in order to do what it did/based on interviews!

[@doctor-aesthetic]

I've seen the one from the movie in person. There were few to no touchups. It really is that ethereal and stunning up close.

[@BacktoEdenUrbanFarm]

I saw it too. It looks exactly the same. It's a real dress...it's not cgi, lol

[@artemisarojas9999]

Bella's obsession with this dress has paid off. The more she makes it the more beautiful it is. I have seen all the versions and I hope that it is already the last version, because I expect much more period dresses from her.

[@IrishAnnie]

I see how the hooks really kept everything in place. That is a stunning achievement! 1000 yards of ruffles……..it is a perfect ball gown. Thank you for sharing this project with us.

[@penultimateh766]

I wish people had the courage and good taste to actually show up attired this beautifully at public events like dinners and the theater / symphony and so forth.

[@LadyB_20]

Been here since the beginning and I am in tears. Everything was just stunning. The movement, the transition. The glimpse of the dance. Everything was perfect. I hope Lily James and Sandy Powell get to see this 😁

[@marimba26]

This dress is absolutely magical. The way it moves is incredible. And, having watched the entire series...the sheer amount of work you've put into this dress boggles my mind. And how you've solved all the problems...so very impressive. But the effect is entirely worth it, you've made magic. Great job!

[@marym2856]

This is by far the most beautiful version of the Cinderella gown, that I have seen on KZbin. One of the things I always notice when people are making gowns are how well they are fitted. And this is just wonderful. Beautiful work:)

[@kirstenpaff8946]

Ahhhh! This looks AMAZING! I can't believe you actually got the same hypnotic movement in the skirt that the original had. I seriously thought the movie might have been using CGI to get some of that effect. Also, the amount of engineering that went to this dress is genuinely impressive.

[@BellaMaesDesigns]

Haha, no CGI here! It really is neat to be able to do and move like what it looks like in the movie!

[@elizabethrosecouture5528]

The development of your skills from four years ago, wow - look out for the next four!! But I'm trying to think what could possibly top this immaculate replica of Cinderella's ball gown... Definitely anticipating tears of wonder & nostalgia when I see your dance scene x

Bella: "How do you go to the bathroom in it?" My stupid dad joke filled brain: "Very carefully". The finished look is stunning. And all the clasps are genius. I hope you're immensely proud of the work you put into this, it really shows. I started giggling uncontrollably once you got the petticoats on, it's that good. I'm glad it's just for you. I don't know how you could ever sell it. All the materials, the hours of physical labor and brain power you put into it, plus the love, care, and completely custom to you fit make it literally priceless in my opinion.

[@intuitum4250]

Congratulations, Bella ! This premiere was magical. I remember, when the Cinderella movie came out, how mesmerised I was watching this beautiful work of art on screen. It was so hard to find informations about it at the time, let alone replicas. I think it was during the summer of 2016 when I found you on Etsy and Instagram ; you were twirling in these enormous petticoats, in a garden, and I thought "Alright ! Something incredible is happening in this lady’s atelier.” (I was so happy to see you comment under my replica, it was something about the first layer of the dress - the silk crepeline.) After a couple of years, you started uploading your Nutcracker Series and little by little, we could see more of your wonderful creations and thoughtful research - and overall great personality. It’s amazing to have creators like you on KZbin. Watching you create this gorgeous Cinderella gown was a fantastic experience (which my mother shared too, though neither of us are native English speaker - hence my terrible grammar.) This movie came out when I really needed to be remembered that the world can be a beautiful place and I cherish everything about it. Though it might be strange to word it like that, it changed my life in many ways. Thank you so much for sharing this adventure with us. It truly means the world and you look absolutely beautiful in your gown. A true Cinderella - or should I say Cinderbella. And your very own Fairy Godmother ! Looking forward to seeing your dance. Cheers to future adventures ! Lots of love. M.

Bella, thank you so much for sharing this with us. I went from "never gonna make this dress, it's too difficult for someone like me" to "maybe it's possible to make a version of this, after all?" through watching your construction videos and reading your "boring" diagrams ;) It was actually when I read the list of Cinderella fabrics that I found myself wondering if I could adapt it a little to my skill level, and suddenly I was browsing fabrics online... When you document a process as thoroughly as you have, it teaches me so many new things and makes me feel like I want to try as well. Originally I only wanted to make the work dress, but I am now thinking about also making this with your patterns. How sly of you to tease us with free information first ;) A big thank you from Sweden!
