The butterflies are on the Disney LA dress because of Ella’s connection and scene with her father in the beginning of the film with a butterfly. So in a way, with the butterflies and the dress having been her mother’s, she is bringing her parents to the ball with her. I find it so sweet.

So when she talks about “Into the woods” Cinderella. That movie is based off of the original Brothers Grimm version of Cinderella, and in the story she says “Shake and quiver, little tree, Throw gold and silver down to me.” She wears a gold and silver dress and her shoes are embroidered with silk and silver. So the dress wasn’t supposed so be like the Disney version, but the original telling of the story.

Having Leonardo DaVinci being the "fairy godmother, as an inventor he crafts Daniel's wings to make her stand out at the masquerade ball.

[@ingaletta2886]

In the czech version of the film it is mentioned, that cinderellas mother wanted to sew a ball gown for her for her first ball, coming together with a cloak and pink shoes, which resembles the dress she actually wears at the ball. I think that is a very important detail that connects the dress with the storyline of the film. Just wanted to say this because the Czech version is actually my favourite. I watch it every year around Christmas together with my father which is a really important tradition for me

[@vladimiramatejova1796]

yes so it is basically the only cinderella dress made based on Cinderella's wishes ( quite literaly). it is a dress her mother would have made for her. and an important part is the cloak that makes the effect as someone mentioned here

The Live action Disney Cinderella makes me want to cry. It’s the color of blue morpho butterfly wings and spins with the same joy as a carousel at the fair. Yet Lily James still stands out and looks gorgeous. She’s not washed out by the dress. And that’s really what matters.

The reason the dress in “Into the woods” is gold, is because it is based on the “original” fairytale and not the disney movie. In the original story, cinderellas dress and shoes are gold. And she doesn’t lose the shoe accidently, the prince puts tar on the steps to stop her from running 😊

[@LIVE-ki9td]

No other Cinderella's ball gown could beat Drew Barrymore's breathtakingly and dreamy gown. It has its realistic style that fits the era/theme of the movie. And the wings made the gown unique, not too flashy and not too over the top, just the right addition to standout in the crowd. She looks so fairytaley 😍

[@AuntDuddie]

@LI VE I agree with you. I would put the Lily James gown in the middle somewhere because I didn't think the blue did anything for her complection and neither did her wig. I really loved Brandys dress, but Drew Barrymore was my all-time favorite. It suited her and it suited the story.

[@LaRomaBella]

Aside from its gorgeousness, what also makes that gown my favorite is the backstory behind it. While I love the 2015 Cinderella version, it drove me NUTS that Ella asked to keep her mother's dress and the Fairy Godmother pretty much turned it into something new anyway.

[@laughingunicorn4471]

In the Grimm version, Cinderella goes to the ball 3 times. She wears a silver gown, then a gold gown. On the last night, she wears as dress of Crystal's and the prince tars the stairs, hoping to stop her from running off at midnight as usual. Instead, she leaves her shoe behind in the tar.

“Into the Woods” was actually the most accurate of them all. They focused on the Grimm's original Cinderella tale. In the tale, the ball lasted 3 nights, and in each she received a different dress. The golden is very accurate considering the old illustration books. The Into the Woods version is more accurate than Disney version and all of them. (also, the stepsisters cut their toes to fit the crystal shoe, which actually happens in the original tale.)

[@doctor-aesthetic]

Disney's is based on Perault's "The Glass Slipper" which predates Grimm by over a century. "Most accurate" my foot.

[@patheticmortal373]

@@doctor-aesthetic and the glass was likely a mistranslation of a fur slipper. The French words are very similar to eachother.

[@doctor-aesthetic]

@@patheticmortal373 It's a common argument, but a very weak one. The original story uses the text "pantoufles de verre" on three separate occasions. The other argument is that in being told the tale, Perrault misheard the storyteller, but even then, "vair" would not have been a common term in the time the story was transcribed. It was a word that had pretty much fallen out of use. It's possible that it was being used to suit the mythological feel of the story, but that's a question that will ultimately never be answered. All we know for sure is that in Perrault's text, he does indeed call them glass slippers.

[@slecnazgallifrey]

Hi, I'm from the Czech Republic. Our Cinderella, which you finally rated as sixth in the ranking, is based on period drawings. The dress is from the Gothic period, so the 12th to 15th century. She has her hair uncovered because she's not married, but once she gets married, she'll have to wear her hair under a bonnet.

[@beth12svist]

The whole style of the film is more like 15th-16th century. A lot of the clothes at the court/ball are very late 15th-early 16th century in style. Cinderella's dress is more fantasy than anything, but with its high waist and simpler silhouette, it's definitely inspired by 15th century styles. And it makes a lot of sense to me as a stylistic choice, because that was a big period in Czech history, with a lot of change, unprecedented level of religious freedom (still limited, but definitely unprecedented), elected non-hereditary kings... The music at the ball also echoes that period to a degree, it's definitely part of what makes it work so well even if you're not consciously aware of it.

[@Calucifer13]

The period in which the movie is set is in between 1470 to 1490, likely 1480. The pink dress is NOT period, and the gowns at the ball are a mishmash of that period and maybe like 20 years later, but they are all still from the early Renaissance period. In England, for comparison, it would take place in the Wars of the Roses period, likely at the end of Margaret of Anjou´s and Henry VIth´s period.

[@Mai2727]

The animated dress does look a bit blue when they’re dancing. It’s not blue but it kinda has a blueish hue specially in the dark.

[@sarasamaletdin4574]

The jacket Prince is wearing does look the same blue in the same scene when the jacket is while in scenes in light. The blue is just way the animation implies it’s in shadow. The way the many colors in Belle’s dress in animated film imply its golden yellow, not canary yellow of the live action film.

[@dunceclown5576]

In animation, for nighttime scenes, you shade with blue. This goes for most painting too. Shading with gray would just be ugly and boring, so most artists go with blue so the shading doesn't just look dirty and sad

[@hinnyu7748]

I am into cosplay and I had a headache fighting with my guy about a specific character's hair (Girls Frontline Game HK416) me saying it's silver and him saying it's blue. Then I learned that there's such colour called STEEL BLUE which may be known to be called blue-gray. It really looked silver one moment and blue in another moment. I guess the animated version is silver (or steel blue) and looks a lot blue because it is nighttime.

[@Lily_of_the_Forest]

The soft fabric and the sheer beauty of the actress, combined with the candle lights illuminating everything just make it very romantic and magical. But I do understand, why nostalgia would play a big role in the way one perceives the outfit

[@sassas4919]

Thats exactly how I feel,! The cloak is beautiful

I'm surprised the significance of the bird on the back of the 'Tři oříšky pro Popelku' dress has gone over so many peoples head's.

The Grimm tale had Cinderella in a gold dress and ‘into the woods’ was more focused on the Grimm version of the tales instead of the more well known Disney version

[@venesameses284]

Yes, that's what I was thinking also.... I actually liked that one. I would not have put it as last.

[@heathercampbell6059]

I agree that I wouldn't have put it as last, but I can see what she is talking about when she says that they probably could have used a better material for the gold color. Personally I absolutely adore the songs more than anything and will choose Into the Woods over so many other things so many times. So the dress didn't really subtract for me. It was the setting and I think that was your point.

[@eshbena]

I think it was put last partly because of the lack of structure. A ball gown needs to have crinolines or, at the very least, some petticoats. You should not clearly see the outline of the legs under the skirts, makes it look awkward, especially when they're dancing. The way the skirt flops listlessly when she sits was very off putting. If you are going to use limp fabrics, then you really need to put structure under them to give them some shape. The color was ... an interesting choice. If you're going for forest tones, then commit to that, if you're going for gold, commit to that. Don't waffle halfway between the two. All in all, it looks like a dress that too many people had input into and that no one person had a vision for.

[@Cand581]

What i also liked and she didn't mentioned was the shoes and how she lost it. Because this is the accurate way from the fairytale..

Ever After... this movie still MOVES ME. Her dress was magical for its time. Realistic but breath taking. It was believable and I love it was a masquerade so they added the wings and face paint

[@patty7beth]

I love all the gowns for different reasons - the Czech gown for simple beauty, Drew Barrymore's for ethereal angelic quality, the Lily James gown for the color, & how it comes alive during the twirling waltz, and the iconic silver dress of the animated film.. But I will always love the glorious silvery white & satin, ermine trimmed ball gown Leslie Ann Warren wears in the 60s TV version of the Rodgers & Hammerstein musical Cinderella. Like the blue Lily James gown, it is fabulously showcased in the waltzing. And for me, it's the most regal gown. Watch this classic on You Tube - this is the classic Cinderella dress of my childhood, because for years, it was an annual event.

[@indy-fs6de]

I've just never seen butterflies incorporated into any design scheme that didn't come off as juvenile.

[@emmahageman1979]

Livia Marques I see what you’re saying. The style of the movie makes it a bit more fitting. However, I think they could have made the butterflies more elegant, and magical.

[@ashtonweaver8140]

I think we associate with blue for the 1950 Cinderella dress because, during the "So This is Love" scene, we see her in blue due to the lighting of the setting being darker in the hallway/overhangs of the garden than how bright it was in the ballroom.

[@mariamasters]

Lily's dress- absolutely stunning and every little girl's dream to have a 'sticky out' dress you can twirl in.

I think that they used the butterflies on the dress as a reference to a scene with her father at the beginning of the movie. Although I still don’t really like the butterflies on the dress because I think they look quite tacky and childish, I like the connection it has with her father. So I think the butterflies look good on the shoes but like you said the dress probably would of looked nicer with gems and diamonds.

[@venesameses284]

Or even, not so many and smaller.... but i agree, they did it to connect the father. Loved them on the shoes.

[@amandawade7803]

I would have taken the butterflies off the neckline, and instead put a single butterfly into the structure of the bodice, making it look like a butterfly is wrapping itself around her. It would be a tad more subtle, but would keep the connection to her father.

[@rere-me]

I don’t really like the fact that the butterflies are that colorful, it would have been better if they had the same color or if there weren’t any butterflies. The dress looks childish and cheap with it

[@Gal2100]

Disney probably added them to make them able to fit children for the clothes they sell

I think part of the reason people remember animated Cinderella's dress as being blue is because its tinted blue during the scenes where she is meant to be in shadow/dark. Like when she and the prince are alone before she runs off. But that is still my favorite dress. It has the advantage of being animated so you get all the sparkly elements every time she moves.

I grew up with the three Hazelnuts movie. What I love about her dress is: the high neckline and the entire bodice give it a more masculine line that matches the the robes of the courtiers and fits Cinderella's personality; while she is feminine and sweet and talks about the beautiful dress her mother had wanted to make for her debut (not to mention she openly admits crushing on the bi-saster that is the prince) she hunts and rides and the film outright states that her father raised her to have the same skillets as any man of her time period (not to mention that her magical hunting outfit gives her a male appearance, fooling the prince - who, bi-saster that he is, falls for that talented young hunter too and... Look there's no heterosexual explanation for this guy). A more masculine outline, softened by pastel colours and flowy sleeves fit her perfectly. Also I like how her outfit coordinates and contrasts the prince's regarding cut and bird motifs, while her wedding gown perfectly matches him and is honestly gorgeous and DAMN I love the film ok?
