Secret Honey Giselle Cosplay

Hello everyone, welcome back to another post. Today, I would like to show you this Giselle Cosplay fromΒ Secret Honey. This is the curtains dress, I really love this one, the other dresses look plain to me. But this one is fabulous. It has embroidery πŸ˜‰ I love embroidery. There is also a casual version of this Giselle Curtain Dress.Β 

I showcase one of my Disney pieces every two weeks, you can check out my other posts if you like. Last time I showed you myΒ Secret Honey Jasmine Sequin Dress.

The Giselle Cosplay

This is the second version of the Giselle dress Secret Honey released and in my opinion superior. The dress is completely embroidered, the first version had the flowers printed on the fabric. Here is a look at the dress from the front:

The Facts

Secret Honey actually released two versions of Giselle’s Curtain dress: One with a printed fabric and this second version with embroidered fabric.Β 

Size and Closure

This dress is decently sized for a Secret Honey dress, I was very surprised by how much room there is in the bust area. The dress has a shirring panel in the back that is decoreted with a lace up detail:

The sleeves are also elasticated, which is nice:

It closes with a side zipper:

If you want a little bit more room in the bust area, you can take out the cups. There are little openings on both sides of the bust where you can take them out:

It doesen’t give you a lot more space, but at least a bit. I like to wear mine without the cups, also, because I find it to be more comfortable and I am very happy with the shape the dress gives.

Measurements

(Amateur-)measured with shirring extended:

  • Chest: ca. 100 cm (without the cups)
  • Underbust: ca. 80 cm

Fit on me

I absolutely love the fit of this dress. There is enough room everywhere. It is even long enough for me and since it has no long sleeves, there is no issue with those either. Love it! This dress is just super comfy. A bit warm in summer though, because it is made from mainly polyester.Β

The Bodice

Let’s have a closer look at the bodice of this dress. I absolutely adore the cut of this bodice, it is so flattering. I am very much in love with this dress:

The Flowers

The bodice is decorated with fabric flowers in the center front and on both sides. Here they are on the side of the dress:

The one in the center front is much bigger. But both consist of several fabric flowers that are sewn together and are decorated with pearls:

The Lace

The neckline is decorated with beautiful lace. Two layers of it actually, which is very cool. There is also a pleated satin trim beneath the lace:

Princess Seams

The bodice has princess seams, which I like very much:

The Sleeves

The sleeves are just little puff sleeves. They are elasticated on both sides which I like a lot, makes them very comfy. The neckline in the back is elasticated too:

sleeves with elastic

The Bow

The front of the bodice is decorated with a giant bow. I didn’t iron it, forgive me… I have no steamer ^^’ And I don’t like ironing (it is also too hot to touch an iron ;)). So here it is, a bit crinkled, laying on the floor:

The bow is not detachable and you also can’t open it. Here it is on my dress form. It’s hanging a bit… Don’t know how to feel about it. But Giselle’s hangs a bit too, so I think I’m fine with it…

And here is the full length of the bow:

The Skirt

The skirt has two layers in the center front and three layers with the flower layer on top. Here you can see all three layers, the fashion fabric, a pink chiffon and a pink cotton-like lining fabric.

The Front Opening

The Dress has a split down the center front. The edge of the teal fabric is decorated with pink trim and some lace:

Overskirt and underskirt

The Embroidery

Now it is time to highlight the embroidery on the teal fabric a bit. Here on the first shot you can see the little pink flowers as well as the bigger beige ones (please don’t ask me, what kind of flowers these are, I have no idea…):

The Hairpiece

There is a hairpice coming with this dress as well. I also didn’t iron it… Sorry πŸ˜€ Here it is:

And that is already it πŸ™‚ Here’s another photo of our shooting πŸ™‚ I captured the dress in movement, I am very proud, I did this without a remote controller and it is sharp πŸ˜€
