Cinderella's Dress

Cinderella's Dress is a garment featured in the 1950 Disney animated feature film Cinderella, and the 2015 live-action film. It is an old dress that belonged to Cinderella's late mother and was stored in a trunk in Cinderella's room. With the help of her animal friends, the dress is restyled for Cinderella to wear to the ball, but is soon torn apart by her stepsisters.
==Appearances==
===Cinderella===
Prior to the events of the film, Cinderella's birth mother owned the dress. The dress was stored in a trunk in the attic after her death. The dress was primarily pink and white, with ruffled features and pink bows adorning the skirt.
Years later, after her stepmother agrees to let her attend the royal ball, Cinderella pulls out the dress and, twirling around with it in excitement, shows it to her mice and bird friends, explaining that it was her mother's. Feeling that the dress is too old-fashioned to be worn to the ball, she decides to restyle it, and picks a design she likes from a book: a pink sleeveless ballgown adorned with light pink sashes and bows.
Before she can do so, her stepfamily demands that she come and help them get ready, much to Cinderella's dismay. After she leaves, Jaq realizes that the stepfamily plans to overburden her with so many chores that she will have no personal time to amend the dress and thereby be unable to go to the ball. Feeling sorry for Cinderella, the animals decide to make the dress alterations themselves. Jaq and Gus are sent to get the necessary trimmings, which they successfully find in the form of Anastasia's pink sash and Drizella's green beaded necklace, both of which were thrown away by them in a fit of anger. Afterward, the animals successfully modify the dress until it fits Cinderella's specifications.
Later on, as Cinderella despairs over being unable to go to the ball due to not having had the time to alter the dress, her friends reveal it newly styled, exactly in the fashion that she had picked. There is even a necklace of green beads for her to wear around her neck. Overjoyed, she thanks them.
She puts the dress and necklace on, slips into a pair of pink dancing slippers, ties a white ribbon in her hair, and races down the stairs just in time to join her stepfamily.
However, when her stepsisters recognize their old items, they violently tear them off her dress until Lady Tremaine stops them. With her dress now reduced to shreds, a heartbroken Cinderella runs out to the garden and cries, where her Fairy Godmother appears to help her go to the ball. It is then turned into a beautiful sparkling blue-white ball gown until midnight, when it reverts back into tatters again (except the glass slippers).
===Cinderella (2015)===
The dress also appears in the live-action remake. It was still Cinderella's late mother's old dress, but it is Cinderella herself who alters it this time, with some help from her good mice friends. After it had been altered, it was presented as a simple-styled, somewhat old-fashioned, yet still elegant and beautiful gown made completely out of blush-pink soft chiffon, with puffed sleeves and a ruffled neckline.
Unfortunately, its final fate (before Cinderella encountered her Fairy Godmother) was also identical to that in the original film: being damaged to prevent Cinderella from going to the ball.
===House of Mouse===
The dress is used in this TV series, although Cinderella doesn't wear it at all, as she was usually depicted in her classic ball gown instead. It is presented in good condition in its appearances, except in "Ladies' Night", when it is shredded. In the episode "Ladies' Night" when Minnie Mouse wears it in a fashion show, it magically changed into the shredded one.
In the episode "House of Scrooge", Cinderella lends the dress to Mickey Mouse after Scrooge McDuck confiscates his toga clothing. He thanked her, but she replied, "That old thing?" After the electricity went off, he then changed back into his regular House of Mouse host clothing.
In the direct-to-video movie Mickey's Magical Christmas: Snowed in at the House of Mouse, the dress is used as a Christmas present to Cinderella from her friends during the song "The Best Christmas of All".
===Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep===
The dress plays a role in the game as part of Ventus' quests to gather materials to make it. After Jaq finishes it, they present it to Cinderella.
===Disney Dreamlight Valley===
A modified version of the dress, titled as the "Pink Mice-Sewn Pearl-Strung Gown", is purchasable in-game through Scrooge McDuck's shop for 40,000 Star Coins.
===Once Upon a Time===
The dress appears in the third episode of the sixth season, titled "The Other Shoe". In this version, instead of being torn to shreds by the stepsisters, one of them tosses it into the furnace instead. Hence, what was saved of it was mostly covered in cinders, prompting the stepsisters to come up with and bestow Ella her unfortunate, infamous nickname.
===Descendants: The Rise of Red===
Ella's dress appears for the first time in the franchise when Red and Chloe travel back in time and meet her. Here, her dress is blue with butterflies across it and is evidently crafted by herself. Instead of her stepsisters ripping up the dress like in the classic version, Uliana does so with one of her tentacles and makes fun of it by sarcastically complimenting her and stating it was "so put together".
