Failed dreams of Dina's Goldstein "Fallen Princess"

What if Happily-Ever-After Doesn’t Happen???

The one thing you could be sure about in childhood was that every fairy tale would end with a “happily ever after”... 

But what If fairy-tales were continued past this line, and we could learn what actually happened to the beautiful princesses and their knights?Photographer Dina Goldstein facing modern problems with Disney icons in “Fallen Princesses” photos series.



"The series creates metaphor out of the myths of fairy tales, forcing the viewer to contemplate real life: failed dreams, addiction, obesity, Cancer, the extinction of indigenous culture, pollution, war and the fallacy of chasing eternal youth. By embracing the textures and colors created by Walt Disney, which built a multi-billion dollar empire exploiting these fairy tales, Fallen Princesses exposes the consumerism that has negated the morality of these ancient parables. It also begs the question, “How do we define the concept of ‘good’? and how do we live a ‘good’ life?”

Making of: Elsa from Frozen (cosplay)

Today I'm happy to tell you that I've finished my Elsa dress.
And here, I'm going to show you how making it looked like :)

I just want to tell you that I was dying to have this dress and if you think you can't do it, 
then you are completely wrong!
It's my first cosplay ever and maybe it's not perfect, but I'm freaking proud.

Okay, let's roll!

Elsa dress, which I bought for 20€/16$

Corset (making of): blue foam sheets and glitter





Shoes from Deichmann 9€/7$
 Elsa shoes: blue shoes and blue glitter
Blue glitter - a life savior!
