There isn’t much that many people don’t know about Disney’s The Little Mermaid. Totally obsessed with life on the surface world, mermaid princess Ariel dreams about the day when she can coexist with other humans on land, much to the dismay of her father, King Triton. Against Triton’s wishes, she makes a deal with the devil, a sea witch named Ursula, to trade in her fins for legs in exchange for her lovely voice. In love with a “surface dweller,” Ariel is forced to woo her man all whilst being completely mute. For a girl like Ariel, that should be a piece of cake.

Ariel is a very magical character for Disney. She’s one of the first female characters where they experimented with a defiant, independent teen. Still youthfully naive and believing Ursula would enter a contract with the utmost of good intentions, Ariel displays what many kids go through every day, just a simple part of growing up. Though, we come to see Ariel triumph from her rookie mistakes, coming out all the better from them.

If there’s one thing Disney movies teach us, it’s that anything is possible. Kristiina Kryptonite demonstrates this by making not only one, but two flawless Ariel cosplay. For such simple costumes, it’s quite easy to make a mistake. However, she raises the bar by adding small touches and props, especially the starfish hair piece!
