Some Disney inspired fashion~Disney Bounding on the runway

They all look so sad...

I don't spend much time looking at runway models, so I'm guessing "depressed" is the industry standard look. Still, I feel like folks ought to be happier about wearing Disney-cartoon-inspired fashions. Also... Snow White is a fair skinned brunette, and Belle has brown hair and looks Parisian, and Buzz has a buzz cut, so... is there a reason they stuck Tiana's dress on the whitest girl available?

Anyway, I think Belle's outfit is wonderfully elegant. Cinderella's looks like a flannel nightie, Tink's is a shapeless sack, and "Grumpy" is awesome (her expression actually seems to fit with her outfit!).

They aren't "Disney inspired". Someone just compiled a list of random fashions from the runways and matched them up to a character.

The one at the end literally has "Grumpy" written on her chest. So I don't think they're all "random fashions" from the runway. (I agree Tink looks pretty random, tho.)

Grumpy is an adjective, not just a Disney character.

These are all, clearly, from different shows (the floors are not even the same and it lists the collections they are from in the blog) and not meant to be some sort of Disney inspired collection (which also explains why "Tiana" is very pale--- the designer wasn't thinking of Tiana at all -- some Disneybounding blogger just decided it looked like a modern version of Tiana's dress).

The blog may be good inspiration for Disney bounders, but the fashions shown in it are not inspired by Disney

So, according to @firecracker725 's very helpful link above, about the designer of the "Grumpy" fashion:

"This season Georgine played on the idea of a "modern day fairytale." She went back and re-read all of the classic fairytales from the Brothers Grimm (the folklore writers of Cinderella, Rapunzel, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, etc.). What would Little Red Riding Hood wear today? A fur lined (probably from the big bad woof) red parka of course!"

And: "One of my favorite looks was the play on Snow White with a cute quirky shirt with Grumpy written across it. I love the badass nerdy vibe to the whole collection. "

I'm going to take a stab in the dark and say "Grumpy" is indeed meant to be Grumpy! After all, there wasn't a "Grumpy" in any of the original Bros Grimm stories - he's purely a Disney creation.

As for the others, you may be right. Or not. I'd have to read the write ups on the rest of them, and I'm not really inclined to track them all down.

OK, I take it back, that one is Disney inspired, or at least fairy tale inspired, though apparently not specifically Disney.

I don't play volume either... what did I miss? :)

(Edited to add, after your edit: Also, I don't think Grumpy can be anything other than "specifically Disney", since Disney created the original character.)

well, I'm choosing to believe that Disney Magic has spilled over into runway fashion, lol....I can think of worse inspiration
 
The blogger has to make some pretty far stretches to claim Disney Bounding. A red skirt and gold top on a black model is Winnie the Pooh? Really? Pooh is wearing a red shirt, not skirt. But I guess it doesn't matter to this blogger, it is Pooh because one piece of clothing is red. Some Disney fanatics are just crazy.

ITA. I'll give up Grumpy, but the rest are a FAR stretch.
