It started as late night silliness with a good friend, but it has grown! Now several of my friends and I are doing historical outfits inspired by Disney characters . In my opinion, Anna is hands down the best Disney princess of all time. I happen to be of Scandinavian ancestry as well and it seemed fitting to re-envision her into my persona’s style – 1560’s Florence. This also provided an excellent opportunity to test my theories regarding the use of hide glue to stiffen bodices!
