miccostumes Girl's Pink Princess Bubblegum Cosplay Costume with Crown

Product Information

Trace your template onto the felt twice. I adjusted the height so I could just fit 2 on a sheet, if your crown is taller use a second sheet. We are heading to Oz Comic-Con tomorrow. We had a fun time last year when Emma dressed as Raven from Teen Titans, and after many, many weeks of deliberation, she finally settled on Princess Bubblegum from Adventure Time. Princess Bubblegum (PB for short) is made of bubblegum (hence the pink), and is the ruler of the candy kingdom. Not just a pretty face, Emma likes her because she is a scientist and inventor “She’s really smart mum!”. Ok, I’ve been told.

At first, she seems prim and proper – always wearing dresses with puffy sleeves and very ladylike behavior. But don’t be fooled, this princess is also a scientist! Princess Bubblegum is always shown experimenting in her lab and developing new inventions.What do you think? Did I do a good job? I’m pretty pleased at how it turned out, even though it looks simple it was quite a lot of work, 8-9 hours for the dress alone. The crown was much easier (thank goodness).

If you are looking for the Princess Bubblegum Crown instructions scroll down, but first let me tell you about how I put the costume together. Emma was really chuffed and we thought it would be fun to do a photoshoot before Comic-con. Rather than a wig we opted for pink hair spray, I think it looks much cuter and there will be no ‘itchy wig’ complaints tomorrow. I used a couple of vintage patterns, one for the bodice and another for the puffy sleeves. Neither had a peter pan collar so I drafted that myself. It wasn’t perfect but will a little cajoling, it’s passable.

Add to Collection

If you aren’t a good sewist here are some ready made dresses that would work great for this costume. I agreed to make a Princess Bubblegum costume with the thought that I could just buy a pink dress from the op-shop and add a lilac collar and sash, but there were no pink dresses to be found so I had to make one from scratch. Princess Bubblegum has pale pink rosy skin, lighter than her hair but still pink all the same. You can use a light pink makeup or body paint to get this look for yourself. Outfit: My makeup plan involves a combination of highlighting and contouring techniques, specifically tailored to achieve a round face shape for an authentic Princess Bubblegum appearance.
