Rapunzel’s Purple Dress, From Bodice to Brocade

Tangled Rapunzel lilac and purple princess dress with puffed sleeves and laced bodice

Past the tower window. Rapunzel's curiosity belongs to the world beyond it, and her lilac and purple dress is a familiar companion to that adventure. This Tangled costume keeps the focus on the princess's clothing: puffed sleeves, a laced bodice and a long skirt. Available for children and adults, the Rapunzel Dress costs $69.99 and comes as one dress, with accessories left to your own interpretation.

Puffed sleeves, lacing and a brocade panel

Rapunzel's dress has several points of interest without needing a separate cape or elaborate jewelry. The puffed sleeves shape the shoulders, while the laced bodice draws attention toward the center of the torso. Below, the skirt gives the purple palette a larger area to occupy.

The listed material is satin with a brocade skirt panel. That panel adds patterned detail to the long skirt, giving a closer photograph something different to emphasize from a full-length view. For a small portrait sequence, include both: one showing the bodice and sleeves, another allowing the skirt to remain visible down to its hem.

The important jump between Kids 130 and 140

Children's options run from Kids 110 through Kids 150. These labels do not come with a published height column, so compare the actual dress measurements rather than treating the number as a confirmed height recommendation.

Pay particular attention to the change between Kids 130 and Kids 140: dress length rises from 82 cm to 104 cm, while bust increases from 69 cm to 78 cm. That is a substantial difference in both length and width. Kids 150 measures 110 cm long, with an 82 cm bust and 72 cm waist.

Shoulder measurements are also supplied for children. Compare them alongside bust, waist and length, especially when deciding between adjacent labels. Measurements were taken flat by hand, with a possible variation of 1–2 cm.

An adult gown measured beyond the waist

Adult options are S, M, L and XL. Use bust and waist together, then consider where the hem will fall with your chosen footwear. Size S lists an 87 cm bust, 68.5 cm waist and 132 cm dress length; XL reaches 99 cm, 80.5 cm and 142.5 cm respectively.

The adult chart also supplies suggested heights, beginning at 155–160 cm for S and ending at 170–175 cm for XL. Those ranges provide context, but the dress measurements deserve equal attention. Someone choosing primarily by height could overlook a mismatch at the bodice.

A braid and a frying pan are separate decisions

No wig, shoes, frying pan or other prop accompanies the dress. A very long blonde braid with small flowers can emphasize Rapunzel's familiar appearance; flat ballet shoes offer a footwear option. Decide how much character detail you want beyond the garment before setting your total costume budget.

Rapunzel's inquisitive nature also gives you something to portray without carrying anything: an interested glance beyond the camera can suggest an adventure just beginning. Braid or no braid, the dress keeps its emphasis on the contrast between lilac and purple.
