princess dress
Tiara-matching attire
A princess dress is a formal gown with a fitted bodice and full, flowing skirt—the silhouette associated with fairy-tale royalty.
The term appears most often in children's contexts: costume play, Halloween, or Disney-inspired dress-up.
For adults, it describes wedding gowns or formal dresses with that same romantic, voluminous shape: She wanted a princess dress for prom.
