There are more than a few things that hint to the Hyrule inspirations of the gown – namely the apron which touches on some ofThe Legend of Zeldasymbology. It isn’t exactly what you might seeon the Hylian Shield, but it also isn’t too far off.
Meanwhile, there are some subtle blue accents – notably a diamond-shaped jewel. WhileBreath of the Wildfans may think this is a play to Zelda’s new blue-aesthetic, long-time fans of the series know that the Princess of Light has had a blue jewel in nearly every reincarnation of her character across the insane timeline.
This Hyrule Wedding Gown joins the ranks with other amazingThe Legend of Zeldaprojects – both fan-made and professional. Last week we sawan oddly satisfying automatonthat captured the sea-faring beauty ofWind Waker.Meanwhile, others have made amazingBreath of the Wildfan projects, whether it bea brilliant animated fan videoor a mashupbetweenPokemonand the Sheikah Slate.
