## Trivia

* Though the initial idea for most of the costumes was to mostly keep true to the original show's designs (i.e. color schemes and styles), the author chose to completely redesign many of the costumes. For example:
	+ Marie's Fairy Godmother gown was changed from lavender to blue, and made to look more like a flower.
		- She was also given animatronic wings that flap and twitch.
	+ Ella's first ballgown's color scheme was changed from white to red (with the line describing the gown changed to "a crimson gown sewn up with rubies and jewels").
