Disney recently revealed a redesign of Merida from Pixar’s Brave. As evident from the images, she has become not only more girly and sparkly but also thinner. This was meant to help her fit in with the other princesses for her Coronation ceremony as the 11th Disney Princess. 

Do you think this was a good idea? Is it outrageous or just decorative and understandable?
