Unlike the Disney Princesses created before her such as Snow White or Cinderella, or even the others created after such as Ariel, Rapunzel and Moana for example, her face is less rounded and more angular and refined, giving her an appearance of maturity rather than youth despite being only sixteen.Īs a peasant, she wears a black bodice over a gray long-sleeved calf-length frock with a white petticoat and goes barefoot.
#THE LONG DARK AURORA SKIN#
She has a tall, slender figure and her skin is fair and flawless. She'll walk with springtime wherever she goes!” ―Presenting the Gift of BeautyĪurora is a supremely beautiful young woman, who was magically blessed with waist-length, wavy, golden hair like sunshine, violet eyes, and lips that shame the red rose. In later media, Aurora is shown to have greatly matured and become far more self-assured, proactive and independent and responsible, as well as confident in her opinions and abilities. Aurora agrees to push her feelings away and do what is right: return home and fulfill her royal duty as a princess, even if she has to marry a man she doesn't love and barely knows in that way. When Aurora finds out about her real background as a princess and realizes that she can't see her beloved man anymore, she, although deeply upset, shows firmness and loyalty to those that she cares about. Also, she's actually quite selfless and strong-willed.
For example, she's rather annoyed by how Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather, despite Aurora's adolescence, treat her like a little child, which gives a hint that Aurora, in fact, is prone to independence and not willing to rely purely on somebody's opinion. Aurora then compromised in agreeing to talk to him by arranging to meet him at her cottage, under the supervision of her aunts.ĭespite her innocence and apparent dependence on others' actions and opinions, Aurora isn't as passive or helpless as she may seem at first sight.
However, she was drawn to him before remembering her aunts' rule about not talking to strangers. Since she was raised not to talk to strangers, Aurora was naturally startled and apprehensive when the handsome Prince Phillip appeared in the forest. Aurora is very loyal and honest to her "aunts" and usually obeys their rules respectfully, even though she may disagree with them. At first, she is seen as a slightly shy, playful and carefree young woman as a result of being sheltered for most of her life. She had previously worked on this post, fulfilling the role of Cinderella.Īurora is a kind, elegant, graceful, angelic, loving, and gentle person as well as a hopelessly romantic one. Helene Stanley became the model for the heroine. According to the designer, this was her first job at the Walt Disney Studios, during which she became Marc's wife in 1956.Īs with other Disney films, an actress was hired as a live-action model, as a guide for the animators. Marc Davis' wife, Alice, designed some of Aurora's costumes. Later, Marc Davis worked on sketches of Oreb, improving the appearance and clothing of the heroine so that they were combined with angular forms of background images. The original design for Aurora has developed by Tom Oreb, who based the figure of Aurora on Audrey Hepburn's thin frame and graceful demeanor. She lives in the forest, where she meets the Prince, her one true love.
