The
Sleeping
Beauty
Sun shines over the kingdom as the announcement of a new Royal. Princess
Aurora is praised as one of the fairest in the land as she is shown to the royal
court for the first time in the dramatic pink damask beauty “And they Called
Her Aurora” dress. This dress symbolizes a great new era to the kingdom with
spring blossoming along with her birth. Aurora grows into a beautiful young
woman and over the years many forget about the curse that has been bestowed
on her because of her ethereal beauty and wonderful gentleness.
Upon her 16th birthday, as promised by the evil fairy, she falls into the deep
sleep of her curse. Aurora wears the “The Sleeping Beauty” dress; a wondrous
enchantment in itself with tiered tulle and handmade embroidery is the
essence of style and grace, as she lies waiting to be awoken. After many years of
slumber, a prince comes to finally save her from endless sleep with the “Love’s
First Kiss” dress, a beautiful statement of love with pleated tulle and flower
embroidery not to be matched by anyone in the kingdom, including Maleficent.
Of course, Maleficent is not pleased that the beauty, Aurora has been awoken
and in turn battles the young prince for awakening her! The “It’s Maleficent”
dress almost overcomes, but Aurora prevails alongside her prince with the “Hail
to the Queen “dress when she blossoms into the woman she was always meant to
be!
Aurora and her prince go on to rule the kingdom and are loved by all, living
happily ever after.
