Princess craze grows up, and it scares me.

asm_cinderellagown.jpgDisney has created their own line of wedding dresses to represent the many princesses of Disney movies. Ew.
It’s called Disney’s Fairy Tale Weddings Collection, where the dresses are meant to represent characters of Disney classics, like Cinderella (in the pic to the right), Jasmine and Snow White. Mara Urshel, owner of the popular Chelsea bridal salon, said she expects the dresses to be top sellers, particularly for younger brides. And exactly how young are we talking?
Even the quotes in the article on thoughts of the dresses were from 12 and 13 year old girls. What the fuck is going on here? I don’t know if this some sort of sick scheme to make Disney child brides or convince young girls that they actually can grow up to be a princess — but only if they get married! Ugh, ugh, ugh.
Thanks to MAC for the link.
