Tiana (The Princess and the Frog)
Most of the dresses in 'The Princess and the Frog' do have some historical basis (lots of dropped waists and slinky chemises), so I thought it would be fun to tackle Tiana's magic-kiss-swamp-frog-something gown," she wrote. "I liked the idea of a challenge and decided to drag it kicking and screaming back into the '20s."

Snow White (Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs)
Hummel wrote that Snow White's time period is pretty easy to pinpoint in 16th century Germany. "Not that the film is accurate, but the clues are there—I took a wide swath from about 1500-1530 to come up with something that still maintained the spirit of the original design."
