Ariel's kulay-rosas Dress - Seriously, Disney?

posted by Annabethandco

I was looking through my artikulo and realised I didn't have an artikulo in which I examined Ariel in depth. I decided to amend that sa pamamagitan ng Pagsulat about a subject it's fun to think about - Ariel's kulay-rosas dress.

Most fans can agree (I think) that the dress looks quite bad on Ariel. There are several reasons for this: the sleeves are ridiculously puffy and makes her arms look misshapen and the shaping of the palda looks... Odd. I just think it's too puffy and big in general.

Another popular reason for the dress looking odd is that a red hair/pink dress combo doesn't work:

However, I personally don't feel this is the case. Disney has proven that it is perfectly capable of making a kulay-rosas dress look super pretty on a red head (a.k.a. Giselle from Enchanted). Look how cute she looks here!

Some of you may now say that the outfit only works because her hair is MUCH lighter than Ariel's, but I disagree. Look what happens when we put Ariel in almost exactly the same dress:

I don't know about you, but I think she looks stunning! Why couldn't Disney put her in a dress madami like this? A different shade of kulay-rosas and different sleeves and Ariel's kulay-rosas dress could have been BEAUTIFUL.

Would something like this be TOO much to ask?

I guess it could be argued that Disney HAD to make the dress shaped like that with odd sleeves to make it look like a ball gown, but if they had to give her a light kulay-rosas and puffy dress, couldn't they have ibingiay something a lot madami like Lottie's from TPATF? Her dress is over dramatic, but still prettier than Ariel's.

Overall, I feel that Disney could have made Ariel's ball toga look amazing if they had put a little madami time and thought into it. They just had to change the shade and the shape and I would have adored it. I am really glad that they have decided to scrap the dress almost altogether now in merchandising, because it makes me a little sad to think how breath-taking Ariel could have looked.

Silverrose1991 I love her ballgown! It's my second favorite outfit of hers, after her wedding dress. And I think redheads look fantastic in pink, especially shocking pink. Unpopular opinions, I know.

Annabethandco ^That's cool to know, but I personally don't really like the dress :D

coolsinger198 i dont like it either.its so unfashionable, i should now i waana be a fashion designer when i grow up. the dress doesnt suite her at all. i agree wit u.

KotokoAihara I actually love that outfit. She looks lovely in it. Especially in this picture. http://images6.fanpop.com/image/polls/1353000/1353713_1394995251798_full.jpg Nice article anyway. I loved the pics and I agree Giselle's dress is nicer. Possibly my favorite Disney outfit.

RapunzelAnna I agree with silverrose1991 and kotoaihara

RapunzelAnna Its like ariana grande wearing pink she rocks in it so why cant ariel?

Tygers_Eye Um... you know that puffy sleeves and skirts like that were the style in most eras, right? We think it looks ridiculous now, but off and on for many years between the Renaissance and Victorian Era (which had the infamous "leg-o-mutton" sleeves), puffy sleeves and skirts [i]were[/i] the height of fashion. http://shoomlah.deviantart.com/art/There-s-Something-About-Her-204302353 As for the color, I guess it could be explained that it seems Eric is the only noble that lives in the castle (seriously, WHERE ARE HIS PARENTS??!!) and they didn't expect Ariel's since she just showed up in rags one day. But they needed a pretty dress to put her in for dinner, so they probably unearthed one of the few or only fancy evening dresses for the occasion. It doesn't look perfect on her because, in-universe, it wasn't designed for her. It's borrowed clothes to tide her over till they can tailor her own.

Diazdiaz95 It's my least favorite princess dress. It has such an eighties feel with the puffy sleeves and all and I don't like clothes with an eighties feel usually. Nice article. Giselle's dress is much nicer.

AudreyFreak Actually, there's something called color analysis (it is scientific), saying that certain colors can only go with certain colors. Giselle is in fact a ginger (and in reality Amy Adams is just a blonde that dyed her hair ginger) which is different from a redhead. I don't think Giselle looks at all good in pink, but at least she is leaning towards blonde there, so it doesn't look as bad as Ariel's tomato-red hair and drab pink dress, two colors that cannot be pulled off successfully together. Gisele herself might look pretty, but that's totally different from the [b]colors[/b] looking pretty, as the color with her coloring doesn't match. Now, Aurora, with her muted coloring, may be able to pull off that pink, but as a Spring (even if her hair color is completely fake), the closest to pink Ariel or Giselle or Merida would be [url=http://www.adorama.com/images/300x300/ro32.jpg]salmon[/url] or [url=http://images.myperfectcolor.com/repositories/images/colors/MPC00010247-2.jpg]peach[/url]. Not criticizing your article or anything, I'm just a bit OCD with color analysis. I used to read about it all the time in high school and I'm still bad about analyzing stuff! I need to do an article myself about it. Also, 1) Ariana isn't a real redhead, and 2) her shade of red isn't even remotely the same color as Ariel's. She has that trendy wine-red, Ariel has ketchup red. Their coloring is just about as different as it gets- Ariana looks very Italian, olive skin, deep brown eyes, dark hair. Ariel has doughy light skin, blue eyes, red hair.

Onyxis AudreyFreak- I have read about color analysis as well, but I nevertheless like Ariels dress on her. I like interesting color combinations, and the color in my opinion is rather close to salmon. If it was truly pink like Aurora´s it would look horrible like you can see with the pocket princess comic where Merida is wearing pink. Also the white and the off-shoulder design helps. It is not the best dress for her, but is sweet and better than the redesigned green one in my opinion.

cruella I'm not fond of the dress either. But, I do agree with Tygers_Eye that was the style of dress, during the era in which the movie was supposed to take place. I also think they could have chosen a better color then pink.

CRaZy_rawR Her wedding sleeves are MUCH puffier though. The size of her head in fact. I think the dress looks good on Ariel, they just needed to pick a brighter or lighter shade of pink. :3

Annabethandco AudreyFreak: I know that Ariel and Giselle have very different hair colours, but that was why I put Ariel in Giselle's dress - and she still looked great!

Annabethandco Tygers_Eye: Look at Pocahontas - Do Disney really care about historical accuracy ;)

324anna Very interesting and well-written article, but I can't say I agree. I personally like that dress...

ApplesauceDoctr I actually like her pink dress..

BelleRose829 I like her pink dress.

PrincessAyeka12 If they changed the shape, I'd love the pink dress more. I also agree that she looks gorgeous in Giselle's dress. I kinda miss the pink now they've given her a new dress in her mermaid colours.

18541755 i like princess ariel so much but the ariel in her ball gown is to looking too bad!!!!

elsafan1010 Hmm. If I think about it like that, all of Ariel's dresses are beautiful. What's the point of a dress when someone is beautiful?

Disney Princess Housewives on Wisteria Lane

posted by laylastepford

If the Disney Princesses were Housewives on Wisteria Lane, which house would be theirs? [If you are a Desperate Housewives fan, I included who lived there from the ipakita if anyone did.]

1. Snow White: 4350

This house is a nice beige color, between white (her skin) and yellow (her skirt). It has a gazebo style balcony that fits perfectly for her and her prince to dance around and sing to each other in. [Martha Huber/Felicia Tillman/Andrew VandeKamp]

2. Cinderella: 4354

This house is a beautiful big blue house, just like her beautiful big blue(ish) dress. It's like a palace but still with...

Princess Personalities: The Four Elements

posted by JNTA1234

This is a series I'm starting, I did some research, I'm not gonna say I was 100% thorough, and tried my best with each princess. Some of them were easy, some were harder than others. I won't talk about Anna and Elsa because 1. I hate to say it but it's hard to pin Elsa anywhere and 2. The less princesses to write about, the easier for me. Let's go.

Snow White-Earth
She was difficult because she shows aspect of water, apoy and earth. Ultimately I went with the latter, Snow White is motherly, practical and the most grounded classic princess. She's doesn't have her mind in the clouds as much....

Why I Dislike Rapunzel

posted by avatar_tla_fan

My opinions on Rapunzel have changed a lot. When I joined Fanpop, she was segundo on my list. Eventually she moved up to first. After that, she made a bunch of drops, until she eventually reached the eleventh spot on my list. So I've gone from loving her to death to disliking her. Oh, well. I might as well explain why I dislike her then.

I dislike Rapunzel mostly because she's an overdone character and I feel like she's shoved onto me a lot as a character. You're supposed to see her as this amazing character who is easily relatable because of how she has many hobbies, and well rounded,...

Why I Dislike Mulan.

posted by avatar_tla_fan

So, I made a long rant on Mulan in a poll, so I figured I would add madami into it, and turn it into an article.

I don't think she's amazing as people make her out to be. Brave, smart, a great personality. I don't see all of that in her. She's pretty brave, but I think there are braver characters out there than just her. She's smart, but I don't think she's THAT smart, quick-thinking and smart are different. I don't find her personality appealing. She's pretty lazy and gave up too easily at the beginning of the movie. She only works hard when she's forced. Then sa pamamagitan ng the end of the movie, she's completely...

My BEST Disney Princess NOSES!

posted by avatar_tla_fan

Well, I did link, and now it's time to ilipat on to a new subject, noses. Some Disney Princesses have regular noses, some have noses that look good with their face, and some have a weirdly shaped, or poorly drawn nose. Keep in mind that this is my opinion, so respect my opinion and I'll respect yours. Enjoy the article! :)

13. Jasmine

I'm not a huge tagahanga of Jasmine's looks in the first place, but her nose is definitely the worst of all the Disney Princesses! It's huge and hideous! It looks weird and if you stare at it, it basically takes all the beauty that you see on her off her face. I hate...

My ranking of DP pag-awit Voices

posted by manu962

I meant to do this artikulo is quite a long time but I just couldn't agree with myself. Some parts of this listahan are probably going to change after a time. I tried not to be influenced sa pamamagitan ng what the voice mga aktres did outside of those DP pelikula but I couldn't really do that, still here is my list.

11.Snow White - Adriana Caselotti
I feel guilty for putting poor sweet Snow in the end of my listahan but... We all know that they choose Adriana Caselotti to voice Snow White because of her sweet, innocent and childish voice. Disney also didn't want Adriana to be in any other movie because her voice was...

Analyzing Disney Princess Beauty

Hola! Lazy me, I havent worked on an artikulo in a while. I'm still working on Disney Superlatives Part 2, I kept putting it aside and now it has been way too long since the first one but it will be here soon, hopefully, trust me youll find out when it gets posted. Anyway,the pamagat sounds like some sort of medical/psychological ulat or something. I was originally going to rank the princesses sa pamamagitan ng their beauty and style but then I thought,"Hey, I don't really find any Disney princess ugly and they are so different that it would be difficult to rank them, so instead why not make an artikulo that...
