# Illustrated Disney Diva Makeovers Disney Mermaid Ariel Got Her Nose Pierced and Her Eyebrows Done By Sarah Dos Santos | Published 2013-11-26 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disney-mermaid References: [behance.net](http://www.behance.net/gallery/Ariel/12410049) & [behance.net](http://www.behance.net/jeslynqara) Your favorite [Disney](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-enchanting-collection) mermaid got a new look thanks to Behance user and artist Jeslyn Qara. She gave the princess large hips and a bigger bust, a [seashell crown](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shells-jewel-collection) and a piece of metal in her nose. Ariel has a nose ring and rocks it with her Monroe mole, [red lips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultra-glossy-lip), cat-eyes and freshly threaded eyebrows. The character looks revived in a more modern look, with features that are very current and beautiful. Disney mermaid Ariel’s skirt has a plaid design and her long red hair has layers. The bottom of her skirt isn’t shown, so it’s hard to tell if she’s a human in this version, or still a mermaid. Even so, the look is still there and with her very iconic features, it’s obvious which Disney princess this is. Ariel’s new look is surely striking and eye-catching, especially the dramatic features on her face. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.4/10 - Popularity: 91% | Activity: 63% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Enhanced Disney Character Makeovers:** Opportunity for Disney to re-imagine and modernize their beloved characters by incorporating contemporary fashion and beauty trends. - **Body Positivity and Diversity in Marketing:** Brands can capitalize on the trend of promoting body positivity and diversity by featuring characters with different body types and appearances. - **Revitalizing Classic Icons:** Artists and designers can take inspiration from iconic characters like Ariel to create fresh and intriguing reinterpretations of beloved pop culture figures. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Entertainment and Media:** Entertainment companies can explore new ways to engage audiences by updating classic characters with modern aesthetics and themes. - **Fashion and Beauty:** Fashion and beauty brands have an opportunity to create merchandise and collaborations based on the updated looks of iconic characters like Ariel. - **Art and Design:** Artists and designers can showcase their creativity by reimagining and transforming well-known characters into contemporary and visually appealing versions. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Aquatic Cosmetic Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disney-the-little-mermaid-collection.md) - [Fairytale-Inspired Fragrances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-enchanting-collection.md) - [Sparkling Detailed Princess Dolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/american-girl-doll-1.md) - [Underwater-Created Whimsical Handbags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ariel-swipe.md) - [Live-Action Mermaid Film Haircare](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-little-mermaid-1.md) - [Villainous Bridal Gowns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/allure-bridals-disney-bridal-gowns.md) - [Princess-Themed Lip Glosses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultra-glossy-lip.md) - [Whimsical Character-Inspired Statement Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aldo-x-disney.md) - [Enchanting Classic-Animation-Inspired Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/girls-crew.md)
