Disney cosplayer gets chic and sinister as Snow White\u2019s Evil Queen Yaya Han \/ DisneyIconic cosplayer Yaya Han is now lending her talents to the Evil Queen of Disney\u2019s Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, with disconcerting, breathtaking results. In the Snow White fairytale and Disney adaptation, the Evil Queen is obsessed with being \u201cthe fairest of them all,\u201d to the point where she engages in the unfair deception of her stepdaughter, Princess Snow White. In the real world, Yaya Han is so committed to spooking fans with sophistication that she has engaged in one of the most ornate Evil Queen cosplays we\u2019ve ever seen. Mirror mirror\u2026 I always feel so decadent and elegant whenever I wear my Evil Queen costume. From the crown headpiece to the sharp silhouetted dress dripping with appliqu\u00e9 and beads, this is a cosplay to float in.

From the lace gloves to the pointed headdress and immaculate cape, the attention to detail is peak inspiration for aspiring cosplay amateurs. Han, though, is a professional. A cosplayer, model and costume designer, Han has been a fixture in the cosplay community for years and even has her own line of materials at Joann Fabrics. Aside from her work at conventions, she\u2019s also been featured on television as part of Syfy\u2019s Heroes of Cosplay series and as a guest judge on TBS\u2019 King of the Nerds show. https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B6bE1gfnecD\/ No longer a judge nor a king, Han has instead transformed into the queen of wickedness, but with a Maleficent-esque twist on the popular villain\u2019s traditional garb. While Evil Queen is typically depicted as enveloped in traditional royal attire or, as the Old Witch, in a simple black robe\u2014Han has pushed against the understated outfit and instead leaned into the Evil Queen\u2019s energy with intricate details fit for a character so vain. Gone are the golden crown, purple sleeves and white collar that served to accentuate her imposing nobility. Han replaced all of those elements with exaggerations of the Evil Queen\u2019s more sinister details like sharp pointed lace cuffs and the distinct headdress widow\u2019s peak. Ever the team player, Han credits Anna Fisher, Kay Hettin, DJ Judy and Fernando Brischetto for helping put together her photography. Recreating an iconic villain is great, but reinventing her look to emphasize the archetype is a wholly more impressive feat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
