The Art of Disney Costuming: Heroes, Villains, and Spaces Between (Disney Editions Deluxe) Hardcover – September 17, 2019

It's a well illustrated book with closeups of costumes. Not all Disney live action costumes are included but the major players are shown.

While I added this lovely title to my Disneyland library simply because it's cover perked my interest, I am happy I did.First, the presentation of the project was done with style and flair! This project at least in my mind, is completely worthy of a volume featuring fantasy couture.From coffee-table sized, replete with beautiful end-papers and fonts, most are accompanied by simply stunning photographs.Never in a million years would I have believed I would have...in one sitting read a book such as this in two hours! And found it truly a fantastic read...even for a guy!The most interesting and meaningful insight I have is to convey the many times that I immediately recognized the costumers talents. By material, buttons and snaps alone, on stylized mannequins the actors faces and bodies we're "seen" as clearly as if they we're wearing them! Now that is some talented seamstress-try (is that a word?) Like I said...."for a guy"NOTE: A couple of reviews deducted stars due to the condition of the cover. May I say it is a VERY thick stock used and that fact coupled with the size of the volume and the use of an automated loader makes it difficult to place tightly. If you just remove the cover nad carefully use a paper folder/bone and press the creases to a sharp crease before replacing it on the book you will see that it will lay perfectly and snuggly on top and bottom and rectify the issues...enjoy!A fine addition.

I got this for my girlfriend as her Christmas gift. She has been looking everywhere for this book and would leave the stores empty handed when she couldn't find it. When she unwrapped it she was so excited! Definitely worth getting for anyone who is wanting this or is a fan of Disney costumes.

My husband ordered me this book and it is gorgeous! I have degrees in apparel design and theatrical costuming and have made garments for cosplay over the years. I really could have used this book. It's a joy to look at.

This book shows Disney costumes from a variety of Disney movies and tv shows. It is filled with full page photos and pictures of details which you could never see on screen. It is far from comprehensive - that would require many, many volumes to cover. They show various versions of Cinderella's iconic blue dress from different live action shows and costumes from Hocus Pocus, Prince of Persia, Sorcerer's Apprentice, others - not just the big films. I hope they make a volume 2. I would love to see more photos of the amazing work Disney designers create for our viewing pleasure.

The book inside is gorgeous. Has many detailed photos of the outfits.Amazon shipped this in a big box with some padding but the dust jacket of the book was dirty and bent on the sides from being rattled around during shipping.

This book is gorgeous and looks great on my coffee table. It is organized strangely with the prologue coming before the table of contents and countless pages dedicated to index. Regardless, I bought the book to look beautiful on my coffee table and it serves its purpose well. I will note, my book came dirty and just thrown in a box. Like other reviewers, I’m pretty disappointed with the handling of books bought on Amazon but that shouldn’t take a star away from the book itself. It should take a star away from Amazon’s packaging standards!

I have been teaching my students about costuming in the theatre classes. Getting to use this book as reference has been a great help. It's detailed, it's colorful, it's awesome.

El libro es grande, tiene ilustraciones bellísimas y vale mucho la pena

Livro excelente!!! Rico em informações sobre os trajes e sua confecção, bem ilustrado, impecável.

Increíble libro disney, lo recomiendo un montón, las ilustraciones inéditas son espectaculares. Lo use para un regalo y es fantástico.

was totally welcomed gift

Ci sono in effetti alcuni costumi "minori" ma è comunque una panoramica sontuosa sui costumi di scena dei film Disney, che spesso per la velocità della visione non abbiamo modo e tempo di apprezzare. Consigliatissimo.
