Bailey wanted to celebrate natural hair in her history-making turn as the first Black Ariel, telling the New York Times: "As Black women our crowns are so special to us. Our hair is important to us in every single way, so I was really grateful that I was allowed to keep that essence of me." Friend — a veteran Disney and Marvel hair designer, who re...
The live-action Ariel's prismatic color palette, which phosphoresces as she gracefully glides through the water, pays homage to the animated version's purple clamshell bikini top and sea foam-green tail.

They even created a lightweight abalone, shell-like material to b...

And like the animation, she finishes out the story in a pink dress, which Atwood designed with a practical backstory. (Sadly, photos aren't yet available, but we'll update this story when they are.) The top layers of the dress ar...
