Frozen Question: Elsa's Pantsuit
Posted by: Britannia 06:57 pm EDT 06/04/18

I saw all the pictures of Elsa's pantsuit, but when I saw "Let It Go" on "The View," she was wearing a dress. Did they change the pantsuit after opening?

Personally, as a huge fan of the movie, I did not like the look of a pantsuit. It might have been like Michael Bennett's original ending of "A Chorus Line" where Cassie didn't get the job--what the director wanted was fighting with what the audience wanted.

Or, maybe they changed the pantsuit only for the televised presentation? (Or maybe the pantsuit comes in elsewhere?)

In this dim musical who's only raison d'etre is stripping money from the pockets of mom and dad, the Frozen Pant Suit which appears when she makes everything 'frozen' somehow doesn't melt when she returns the sun.

I was fairly certain that the pantsuit was from Act Two. (We saw the show the last week of March.)

Thank you! That sheds some light.

But ... but ... the sequin dress is fairly ridiculous.

I don't get how finally owning her innate power turns her into Celine Dion in Vegas, and I've raised it in several threads and had a heated (!) debate about it. I found the costume ludicrous in the animated film, with the curvy hips and bust, and just as bizarre clinging to Ms. Levy. I would actually reverse the costumes, and put her in a traditional girly coming out dress for her coronation, and have her don suitable -- warmer, less sexualized -- attire for the cold life in the mountains once she owns her power and decides to live independent of the kingdom's need to see her traditionally. It strikes me as psychologically backwards. As well as suspect from any feminist point of view. I know, I know, others feel it gives her agency and sexual autonomy (even though she clearly eschews heterosexual projections of princess fantasy...well, she does, ultimately) When I saw the transformation in the View footage, the dress made me laugh, it's so kitsch. It all turns into ... wait for it ... an ice show.

I love your idea! It would have been a great twist from the expected transformation and makes complete sense.
