Disney Princess Cosplayers Break Stereotypes with Inspirational Photo Series
In honor of International Women's Day (March 8th),
Ali Williams
created a collaborative project that breaks the "bad role model" of Disney Princesses
by showing what would happen if they were living today and had the opportunity to
pursue their dreams.
Featuring the work of photographers
Jim Donnelly and
Ruy Geekstrong Arena in a series of nine images including Ariel the Archaeologist, Tiana the Food Scientist, and Rapunzel the Teacher.
"The true spirit of a princess has little to do with her glittering gowns and fairy
godmother, the power of the princess is in her kindness, bravery, and sense of adventure. After all, you don't need a crown to change the world."
