White-wash the Native American by putting her in a European ballgown because European clothes are so much prettier and better than Native American skins?
(And by the way, that WAS the reason Pocahontas was dressed up as such in real life and the terrible sequel. Europeans of her time thought all Native Americans savages, and Pocahontas dressing and acting like the Europeans was viewed as the savage dressing and acting like a civilized human being. The whole point of her dressing up in the sequel was because the king and royal court would never accept or take her seriously as herself, but would entertain her if she dressed and acted just like THEM. "Like us? Good. Like your people? Savage." In the film, that's why she discards it near the end.)
