Fairy tales were once a form of escapism to another world of fantasy, flowers and fairydom, but what happens when you fast forward to the future that

"The project was inspired by my observation of three-year-old girls, who were developing an interest in Disney's Fairy tales. As a new mother I have been able to get a close up look at the phenomenon of young girls fascinated with Princesses and their desire to dress up like them. The Disney versions almost always have sad beginning, with an overbearing female villain, and the end is predictably a happy one. The Prince usually saves the day and makes the victimized young beauty into a Princess."
Tragic.

Little Red Ridinghood wasn't so little anymore.

Aladdin became a P.O.W, leaving Princess Jasmine to pick up the pieces.
Cinderella got bitten by the botox bug.
