Anastasia Tremaine

Background

She is the younger sister of Drizella and the daughter of Lady Tremaine and Sir Francis Tremaine. Sometime after her father's death, her mother then married a noble man with a daughter, Cinderella. After the death of Cinderella's father, they became cruel and forced Cinderella into servitude within her own home.

Personality

In the original film, Anastasia was portrayed as selfish, spoiled, and greedy as her sister, Drizella and her mother Lady Tremaine, and is portrayed as ugly both on the inside and the outside and not very graceful. She is very jealous of Cinderella's success and beauty and enjoyed seeing her slave under her, her sister, mother, and even their cat. Anastasia's character is fleshed out considerably in the sequels. Despite her mother's insistence that Anastasia marry someone to elevate her social status, Anastasia is more interested in finding somebody who will love her for who she is on the inside. While she is, indeed, ungrateful and rather ugly in the first movie, she's portrayed as being merely plain (compared to the beauty of Cinderella) rather than ugly as she becomes a more sympathetic character, and shown to have been ugly only as a result of Tremaine's upbringing.

Personality

It's possible that she was favored by Lady Tremaine, as in the third film, she chose Anastasia to wear the slipper and marry the prince when she altered history using the Fairy Godmother's magic wand (though it could be due to her finding the Fairy Godmother's wand), as Lady Tremaine had keenly exploited Anastasia's desperation for love. However, Anastasia had a romantic side, as she had once felt a desire to fall in love with Prince Charming (upon whom her mother had placed a love spell to get him to love her), coupled with lingering guilt over her mistreatment of Cinderella. After speaking with Charming's father about love, she later realized that she wanted to be loved for who she is and not because of a spell or a trick. She defied her mother, returning the wand to Cinderella and apologizing for everything she'd done.

Personality

This repentant act earned her forgiveness from everyone, particularly Cinderella herself, and also the King who wanted Anastasia to keep the seashell his own wife had given to him, telling her everyone deserves love. Anastasia's repentance also prompted Cinderella to allow Anastasia to move into the Castle and become her lady-in-waiting. This ultimately saved her from the punishment imposed on Lady Tremaine and Drizella, as Cinderella believed that Anastasia had only mistreated her because she was also emotionally abused and manipulated into doing so by Lady Tremaine.

Physical appearance

Anastasia has a slender figure, fair skin, long red hair, and black eyes. Her trademark appearance has her wearing different shades of pink and/or magenta long short-sleeved gown and matching purple flats. Her long red hair is tied in several ringlets, and she has a golden hair clip on her head. In her later appearances in two direct sequels, Anastasia wears her trademark dress as the sleeves of her dress are now pink instead of violet. When she was kicked by the horse and messed up before she ran away from the baker for the mess, the several ringlets on her hair were loose before Cinderella gave her a makeover. In the ballroom scene and after ripping Cinderella's dress along with her sister, Drizella, she has a single light green feather on her head while wearing her trademark gown. Her sleepwear is identical to her sister, Drizella, wearing a long sleeve nightgown with a white ribbon in the center, and the color is pink with a matching sleeping hat. In her appearance in Cinderella II: Dreams Come True, where she wanted to be loved by the baker and became close to Cinderella in the An Uncommon Romance segment of the film, she wears a different shade of purple long-sleeved gown as her collar resembles a short cape with a dark blue jewel at the center. Her red hair is loose and wears a purple choker and her flats from her trademark outfit are now brown. She also wears golden rounded earrings on her ear and a matching three golden bracelets on her left wrist. At the end of the segment where she and the baker dance at a party ball, she wears lighter shades of yellow long short-sleeved formal dress and pale yellow shoes as her hair is still loose like her primary appearance and wears white long gloves. When she was a child, Anastasia's hair was shorter with a full fringe, and she wore a different shade of pink short-sleeved dress with a white-winged collar and a blue jewel in the center, though her facial features remain the same as young.
