Frances gets angry when Sebastian won't let her present her work to an important designer named Madame Aurelia, and has to pretend she's a nameless servant to keep his secret. Eventually, she decides to quit and work at her old job. Two things: One, no violence ensues.

De verdad, The Prince and the Dressmaker es una historia tan linda y natural que no hay lugar a confusiones, enredos mentales o cualquier tipo de juicio negativo. Jen Wang nos presenta la historia de estos dos personajes de una manera que es imposible no amarlos desde la página uno, es imposible no querer que puedan ser ellos mismos sin miedo a lo que puedan pensar. Y es que, claro, desde la perspectiva de la realeza...¿quién iba a querer a un príncipe que se viste de chica por las noches? With echoes of Cinderella firmly in place, the story begins with a ball. All “eligible young women” are invited to Prince Sebastian’s 16 th birthday celebration in Paris. Aristocratic young ladies all over the city are clamoring for new gowns and perfect hair for the ball. Frances is a low-level seamstress charged with making a new gown for a petulant girl whose mother wants her to catch the eye of the prince, but the young lady has other plans. She tells Frances, “Just make it ghastly. Make me look like the devil’s wench.” Frances does just that. She spends all night creating a dress that would be plenty risqué on a modern red carpet much less in the historical setting of this story. Of course the dress causes a scandal and costs Frances her job. And, shall I end with the ending? It was contrived In Chapter Ten, after Sebastian has run away, Frances tells the King, “The thing that ruined Sebastian was how afraid he was of what you’d think of him.” Make a list of five things young people are afraid others will think of them along with a suggestion for overcoming the fear.
