Have You That There Is Plan For Disney A Beauty And The Beast Broadway Revival? I Really Want A 18th

Have you that there is plan for Disney a beauty and the beast broadway revival? I really want a 18th century looking production and belle’s finale dress needs to be a white robe de cour and the yellow one a sack back gown.

You want an 18th century looking production, you say? How about the Danish production at Det Ny Teater, designed by Terry Parsons?

Or my personal favourite, the Stage Entertainment one designed by Miguel Angel Huidor - this might be the one you had in mind?

Sigh. All the beauty.

Obi-wan: Anakin, blame Palpatine for swapping the competent and beloved clones for stormtroopers unable to shoot a turtle in front of them.

I am surrounded by incompetent idiots and that's your fault Obi-Wan

Belle’s finale dress from beauty and the beast 2017 doesn’t seem to evoke the 1700s. If you redesign the shape of that dress, what would it be? A robe de cour or a sack back gown or a robe Anglais?

Oh, of course it does not. For the ones who have no idea what this is about, it’s this dress:

Since the occasion seems to be more like a country dance than a proper ball or court, I’d totally avoid a robe de cour (that dress was supposed to be worn at court only, think about it as the ultimate and most formal of all gowns).

Looking that the mood is pretty pastoral I would not use a robe à la française either, it would stand out too much next to the “simpler” dressed other women are wearing. Here I’m totally suspending my incredulity and even ignoring the fact that Dan Stevens’ style is pretty much mid-18th century and the other men are definitely at the last part of the century.

So, I’d change it into a robe à l’anglaise, probably in printed cotton, and i’d keep the neckline, the transparent sleeves (just for the lols), and maybe would play with the sheer fabric for a petticoat under the anglaise gown.

Four different designs for “Beauty and the Beast” (Disney version):  They all feature Belle in a blue, aproned dress for the opening, and Belle in a yellowish golden dress, and the Beast in a royal blue suit/tailcoat for the epic dance scene. But within that there are variations. The main difference in design ideas seems to be which century they set the story in. The animated version from 1991 (row 1), as well as the original Broadway production and those to follow (row 2), set the story in the mid 19th century, with wide crinoline skirts and corseted bodices for the ladies, and tailcoat for the beast.  Later versions has explored the 18th century for the design as well, as was done in Germany and Italy (row 3) as well as Denmark (row 4).  Of these the Italian/German one is my definite favourite. The costume designer Miguel Angel Huidor totally knew what’s essential to the 18th century, and managed to make it period plausible while still taking place in a fantasy world - AND making it look splendid. 1. and 2.
