Cinderelly Sessions: Seq. 4.0-4.1 ("King & Duke at Ball," "Clock Strikes")

Happy Valentine's Day, everyone! Long time no hear, but I return with the archetypal romance of 1950's Cinderella. With the help of friend/fashion historian Marley Healy, we break down the lewks of the Royal Ball, as well as the depiction of romance in early Disney films. In this case, it helps if your Prince Charming's a Christian Dior stan.
