How to Dress Like Princess Bubblegum: A Step-by-Step Guide

Princess Bubblegum, the ruler of the Candy Kingdom, is a vibrant, unforgettable character with a unique style that’s all about pink, purple, and a playful sense of queenliness. Want to look like her? Here’s your guide to rocking the Bubblegum look!

Hair: Get That Signature Pink Bombshell

Princess Bubblegum’s long, straight pink hair might be one of her most iconic features. To get the look:

  • Temporary Color & Extensions: If you don’t have naturally pink hair, use temporary hair dye in shades of pink and pair it with hair extensions to reach the desired length.
  • Wigs: Find a pink wig with bangs or an overall straight style, and look for pieces with soft waves or curls at the ends for that extra detail.

Once your hair is ready, pin it back or style it into a low ponytail—just like Princess PB!

Skin: Glow Like Candy Kingdom

Princess Bubblegum’s skin has a delicate, rosy pink tone that matches her character’s playful charm. You can achieve this look with:

  • Pink Makeup: Use a soft pink tinted moisturizer or bronzer to give your skin a healthy, pale pink glow.
  • Body Paint: For a fun touch, apply light pink body paint to your arms, neck, or cheeks!

Outfit: The Perfect Bubblegum Dress

Princess Bubblegum’s look is unmistakable: a long magenta dress with a puff-sleeve design complete with purple accents. Here’s how to achieve it:

The Dress:

  • Look for a long, bright pink dress—ideally a magenta one with puff sleeves and a puff skirt. If sewing is more your style, you can create one from scratch using silk or satin fabric.
  • Add details: If your dress isn’t already purple-accented, add a wide purple ribbon or sashes around the waist or collar.

Accessories:

  • Keep it simple, as Bubblegum style doesn’t need much else. But if you want to add a touch of personality, try some glittery accessories or hair jewels!

Crown: The Finishing Touch

A simple gold crown with a turquoise gem is the perfect way to complete the look. You can find crowns online or in costume stores, or:

DIY Option:

  • Use craft foam, cardboard, or construction paper to create your own crown. Cover it in pink or gold fabric, and glue a round turquoise gemstone in the center.

Final Tips

  • Fabric to Consider: For the dress, choose something soft and flowy—like satin or cotton.
  • Props: If you’re going for a full scene (like in “Prisoners of the Sun,” for example), add a scepter or a throne just for fun!

By following these steps, you’ll be able to look just like Princess Bubblegum—charismatic, colorful, and totally regal! Whether you’re dressing up for a convention or just for fun, this look is sure to make you stand out.
