“They say that there is a princess, that you cannot take your eyes off” - this is how it is written about the legendary swan princess from Pushkin's “The Tale of Tsar Saltan” and the opera of the same name. This character also inspired Vrubel to create the famous painting The Swan Princess. We all rightly consider our children the most beautiful and are ready to try to make a fairy princess costume for our beloved daughter.

Instructions
Step 1
Crown
Cut a patterned crown out of cardboard, use several layers of cardboard. Sew the cover in the shape of a wreath of silver fabric, insert a cardboard blank inside. Decorate the crown with rhinestones, sew with gold braid. Cover the hair hoop with the same silver fabric, sew the ribbons to it, which will be tied at the back of the head.
Step 2
Sew the bottom edge of the crown with a thread of "pearls", on the sides, above the temples, attach the threads of "pearls" that will fall to the shoulders, sew a mesh that will go down to the forehead and a crown to the hair hoop, then attach the veil. Attach the veil to the back of the crown - it can be made of transparent blue tulle, as well as brocade with gold lace.
Step 3
Opashen
Sew a long, straight dress from light blue satin. The important details are sleeve and collar. Cut out the sleeve in the form of a wide rectangle, the length of the sleeve should be long enough to cover the brush completely. Cut a rectangle in the center from the bottom of the sleeve to the middle of the shoulder, process the cut, and decorate the cut with thermal appliqués. Pull up the sleeve to the desired length and sew the sleeve into the armhole.
Step 4
Cut the collar out of silver fabric, sew the edges of the collar with curly gold braid, sew the neckline with pearl thread, decorate the collar with rhinestones. Decorate the front of the dress with appliques; in the middle of the front, sew a gold ribbon to the edge of the dress. The dress should be wide enough to fit a shirt underneath. Snap to the collar and sleeves with a white boa so that it rests on your shoulders and goes down the sleeves like wings.
Step 5
Shirt
Sew a simple shirt, gather collar and sleeves, sew a red lace braid to the bottom of the sleeves and the collar. Put on a suit in the following sequence: first a shirt, then opashen, then a crown.
