Anastasia Steele: A Woman Transformed
Anastasia Steele’s character in Fifty Shades of Grey transforms in many ways throughout the novel, but one of the most noticeable and exciting transformations for readers (and eventual movie goers) is in her wardrobe.
Some women may be uneasy letting their boyfriend shop for them, but it seems Christian understands this dilemma and he employs a personal shopper for the majority of the clothing purchases. His body guard buys Anastasia’s first outfit, but from that point on, the personal shopper takes over. Anastasia, upon being presented a room of her own at Christian’s place, finds her closet full of designer gowns, business attire, shoes and accessories. Even her undergarments get a revamp and she is supplied the best that lingerie boutiques have to offer.
As Anastasia transforms form the shy college grad of that first meeting into Christian’s main squeeze, her entire attitude towards clothing changes. She finds it hard to accept all of the nice new outfits in the beginning, but they quickly are a part of her arsenal in the seduction of Christian. She learns how to “work” the clothes to her advantage, growing confident in her curves as she enjoys the rich fabrics and hugging hem lines. The indulgence and care with which Christian showers Anastasia Steele in fine clothing, jewels and lingerie is the stuff daydreams are made of. No expense is too much for the woman he loves and Anastasia Steele has the designer shoes to prove it. This is a true Hollywood transformation in all senses of the word, even if it does take place in Seattle.
