Best Princess Fiona Costume Guide
Princess Fiona is the main female character in the DreamWorks animated film franchise, Shrek. She is a beautiful princess that transforms into an ogre at night. She was locked away in a tower, and an arrangement was made to have Prince Charming rescue and marry her. And to break the curse, she must kiss a prince. Shrek, the Ogre, rescued Fiona from the tower upon the orders of Lord Farquaad. It was Donkey who discovered Fiona’s ogre transformation. Instead, Fiona fell in love with Shrek, who is also an ogre. When Shrek disrupted her wedding to Lord Farquaad, he kisses Fiona and lifts the curse—she became an ogre permanently. Eventually, Fiona married Shrek and gave him triplets.

Princess Fiona Cosplay Costumes
In both human and ogre form, Princess Fiona has long red hair, which becomes coarser in texture when she transforms into an ogre. She has a moss green gown with matching green shoes. In the second Shrek installment, Fiona goes through several costume changes, as opposed to the first film in which she wears the same green gown the entire movie. Fiona has a noticeably slender figure in her human form and becomes quite larger when becoming an ogre. When her character was first illustrated, the animators took care not to resemble the looks of actress Cameron Diaz, who voiced the character. Animators did, however, incorporate elements of her body movement. They studied Diaz’ mannerisms to exaggerate Fiona’s reactions and expressions.
This Princess Fiona costume will transform you into her ogre persona, green skin, and all. No need to worry at all since the green body paint to achieve the look certainly washable! You should team up with Shrek to go as a couples cosplay to ensure you nail the character’s look!
About Princess Fiona
The character of Princess Fiona is considered to be a parody of a traditional princess. Fiona’s character is loosely based on the unsightly princess in William Steig’s children’s book Shrek! Critics were happy with Fiona’s unusual characterizations and impressive martial arts skills. Cameron Diaz went on to become one of the highest-paid actresses in Hollywood due to the role she in the Shrek franchise.
Fiona is introduced in the 2001 Dreamworks film as a beautiful princess placed under a curse that transforms her into an ogress nightly. She is initially determined to break the enchantment by kissing a prince. After being rescued by Shrek, she eventually falls in love with the brave ogre who rescued her. Diaz earned praise for her voice work portraying Princess Fiona. Bryan Alexander of NBC New York described Fiona as “the world’s hottest ogre.”
