Hello, people of the internets! Here comes the 1950s petticoat! This is my first video for my Briar Rose series, in which I’m creating my version of Aurora’s peasant outfit in Disney’s 1959 film Sleeping Beauty. Each of the videos will feature one of the four garments in the costume.
More info below the photos.
