Yep, just a wee insider secret(ish) - they've been slooooowly ever so slightly changing the Princesses bit by bit so you don't notice they're trying to modernise them. But if you compare them side-by-side, you'll see that just in time for 2013, the princesses will look fairly different. The best part is the costumes for the face characters in the parks are already SO MUCH better.

Debuting for the first time in Times Square today - the new Cinderella (left/top) compared with the classic version (right/bottom). Whaddaya think?
Overall - I think she looks younger, spunkier and more...realistic? If that makes any sense.
Even though the dress looks bigger, it appears much lighter, airier and more comfortable.
Mmmmaybe they're modernising the older princesses to match the art style of the newer ones. Maybe we'll see more crossovers comin' really soon haha.
Maybe part of a different slant on the Princess brand ;)
Noticeable differences:
- no more bizarrely constructed sleeves with a stiff radial top seam
- no more weird headband/earring combo
- updating 1950s I Love Lucy-roll hairstyle to bun
- Sideswept bangs and stray ringlet curls
- better constructed peplum bustles with what looks like silk chiffon instead of...that ugly fabric
- fuller gown -with alternately-coloured inset layer at front of skirt

TIL NEXT TIME: NEW JASMINE
I love it! I mean, I will always love the classic artwork, but it's a great update to the characters in the parks:)
