I’ve got to admit after reading the EAH books I was disappointed with Darling Charming’s character. She is the daughter of Prince Charming so I was hoping for a total tomboy kick butt princess in pants but instead I get another beautiful perfect storybook princess. C’mon EAH really?! I’m still waiting for her doll though.
I’m a few agree. I also wanted that Darling Charming would be a perfect tomboy, since it’s her Destiny to do what her father has did : be heroic and saving princesses. (and married with a princess, so : be a lesbian *.* !)
BUT : I’m finally totally in love with the fact that Darling Charming looks like Marie Antoinette *w* !
A character of this style is completely PERFECT for EAH, and then Marie Antoinette was always a Rebel Princess [and a French icon ^w^] !
I’m sure Darling could have gorgeous collections in the XVIIIth century style ♥
So, even if à la base I had imagined that Darling will be a tomboy, I’m actually very happy that she is a kind of “reincarnation of Marie Antoinette”, because I feel that she will become one of my favorite characters especially for this *w* !
And yet, even if she is not very a tomboy physically, it doesn’t prevent her from being a feminist character ;) !
