Puppet Show as Snow White Dress?

My darling two year old just LOVES Snow White. I went searching online for a Snow White costume and was a bit disappointed at what I saw. Still, for dressup one of those costumes would do and I'm sure she would love them.


However, we just booked a vacation to DisneyWorld, and I can imagine that those polyester costumes might be really uncomfortable under the Florida sun and it would be SO much fun for Delilah to wear her Snow White Dress when we go to parks and dine with the princesses! So I figured if I made her a costume myself, I could make it from a breathable cotton rather than the polyester stuff storebought costumes are made of, and then she would be more comfortable in the Florida heat.


So I'm thinking of using the Puppet Show Dress as my pattern and turning it into a Snow White dress. But I would add more fullness in the sleeves. I think I can figure that out -- but would love any suggestions. I had thought of using the musicbox dress and adding puffy sleeves, because that dress has a nice bodice for the design and it's a pretty easy pattern! But I'm not confident in my ability to draft the sleeves properly!!


I'd love any suggestions.
