“The proclamation had been very clear: All eligible maidens were to attend. All. High or low estate, fat or thin, short or tall, one leg or two. In one week's time, the prince was going to pick a pretty girl from the crowd and make a princess of her. To most women in the kingdom, it was as though God had extended His hand to them. But not to the seamstresses. To old Clara Le Dure, it seemed the king had decided this was the week she ought to die. He was personally seeing to it that she should stitch herself into oblivion.” DressesFairy TalesFairytale RetellingCinderellaSeamstress Book:The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction, January/February 2020 Source: The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction, January/February 2020
