Making a Snow White running costume

March 4, 2015 by Becky 5 Comments

I use the term “making” here a little liberally as I only actually made from scratch one part of my costume for the Enchanted 10k – the rest of more of how I put the costume together from various pieces I had or bought.  But I was really happy with how it turned out, so I wanted to share what I did to make my Snow White running costume!

The shirt I used is from one of my favorite running shirt companies, Raw Threads.  They make shirts inspired by tons of Disney characters.  I actually got this one as part of a mystery pack that I had ordered, which is when you can get three shirts at a discounted bundle price, but you don’t know which ones you’ll get.  Receiving this one is actually what inspired me to do a Snow White costume!  Even if you don’t want to do something like this, any blue running shirt will work for the costume.  I just like the bow with the apple because it adds a bit extra “Snow White” to it.

For the skirt I used another one of my favorite companies, Rock City Skirts.  I love their light, sparkly skirts for running and plan to use them for most, if not all, of my future running costumes!  I actually already had this yellow/gold running skirt from the Enchanted 10k last year, when I put together my Belle costume.  And I did a full review of Rock City Skirts that you can check out here!  Any yellow or gold running skirt would work to make this costume though.

The part that I actually made was the Snow White sleeves, and I really think they bring the whole thing together!  I found a tutorial from another blog for how to make them using tulle.  It was a little tricky but I think they turned out well.  I just used elastic and red and blue tulle.  The only problem is I couldn’t get my sewing machine to work, so I ended up using a hot glue gun.  It held well, but the sewing machine would have been a lot easier!

Finally, because it was only in the 40s on race day, I added race sleeves and leggings as a last minute addition.  Because it was so last minute, I used the same race sleeves from my Belle costume from Run Alice Run.  It worked because they were yellow, and I just turned the roses on the inside so they wouldn’t be seen.  If I had planned sleeves ahead of time I probably would have picked blue, but this worked.  The leggings were just cheap yellow ones I got on Amazon.

All in all, it put together a pretty fun costume!  I’ve now checked Belle, Anna, and Alice off of my costume list.  Who should I dress as next?

    Rapunzel but without the long hair as that might make running difficult!

    Your outfit looks great! That was very clever how you made the puffy sleeves. They are so perfect that I thought they were attached to your shirt! I am SO glad that you left a link to your blog. We’ve seen your comments before but didn’t know that you had a current blog. We will definitely be visiting again!
