i feel like though, in the movie Brave itself, she wasn’t being physically restricted by the corset, it was more the actual dress, like she could hardly move her arms, I doubt she could breath easily in the dress. Because she was also fine once she tore the sleeves an back of the dress. I just think the previews were a lot different in message than the clothes. She only seemed visibly upset about the corset because her mom wanted her to wear it, the same way she didn’t want to learn the kingdoms |

I could rant for days about that outfit and the subsequent scenes. It’s clear that Pixar didn’t build that outfit in real life to see how it would actually move. Some scenes it seems like it’s made of buckram and has no give, other scenes, it looks like it’s made of muslin and is wicked flexible. And how it rips…

But if they had made an effort to make it about the outfit overall, not the fit of the garment, that would have been a great example of clothing being used to oppress. (ex. Merida complaining about how heavy the bejeweled dress is, how opulent it is, how she doesn’t like the color, etc. Typical girl vs. mom dress arguments)
