Ashley Eckstein Shows Off the Ultimate Disney Dress on Instagram
What does Ashley Eckstein, who has created a fashion empire with her Disney, Marvel, Pixar, and Star Wars-inspired looks wear to San Diego Comic-Con? The answer is something that rivals the gowns of some of our favorite Disney Princesses. The Her Universe founder had a fashion show at San Diego Comic-Con this year and wore a dress that comes to life! The designer took to Instagram to share some videos of the stunning frock and you’ll definitely want to take a closer look.

In another post, Eckstein shared a video of what she dubbs the “dream dress.” The caption reads, “How do you celebrate 100 years of Disney with couture fashion? You create something that’s never been done before!” That’s definitely what Ashley did! The black dress features a wrap around the shoulders made to look like a film reel.
What elevates this dress to the next level is that the images featured in the film role are actually video snippets of Disney films. The footage covers Mickey Mouse in his original short Steamboat Willie and the moment of the stunning dress transformation during Cinderella.
In the caption of her post, Eckstein shared some pretty impressive stats about her dress. Apparently, it consists of 14 flexible OLED screens and 25 pounds of equipment. Walt Disney World Imagineer Daniel Joseph played a role in bringing this creation to life along with producer/director John Gleim. In addition, Andrew MacLaine was brought in to design the dress.
Ashley has truly outdone herself! We can’t wait to see what amazing creations she comes up with next. You can check out her company Her Universe here.
