She also sports black strapped Mary Jane shoes with brown/gray soles. Underneath her dress, she wears a white corset, a white petticoat, a frilly white knee-length and matching thigh-high stockings, a frilly white knee-length and matching pantalettes, and a matching lace slip. She has big blue eyes, fair skin, and blonde, thick, medium-length hair held back by a black ribbon tied in a bow.Īlice's signature outfit is a cerulean and light blue short-sleeved knee-length white skirted dress, with a white pinafore apron on top. Her figure is slender and appears fairly petite, and it may be indicated that she has fairly wide hips as she gets momentarily stuck in the Rabbit Hole due to them. She is also very adventurous, idealistic, and curious.Īlice is a young, pretty girl living in what is assumed to be the Victorian era. Still, she's intelligent, polite, honest, and articulate, if not given a reason to be otherwise as aforementioned. Alice's pedantic eagerness to show off her knowledge, coupled with her push for respect, sensibility, and fairness, proved to be adverse to the chaotic environment in Wonderland, as her resistance to Wonderland's nonsense landed her in many precarious situations that ultimately get Alice chased from Wonderland. This gives some idea of Alice's large imagination, and at first, Wonderland seemed like the perfect place for Alice, as it allowed her to indulge in her imaginings as well as her intense curiosity. Prior to arriving in Wonderland, she sat on the bank of a river listening to her sister reading lessons, which she didn't like, as the book her sister was reading, had no pictures, and claimed, 'In my world, the books would be nothing but pictures!' Alice, however, does enjoy reading, just not the books her sister prefers. Kat Cressida has also voiced Alice for a brief period of time in a few projects for Disney.Īlice is depicted as a daydreamer first and foremost. After Beaumont retired from acting in 2005, Hynden Walch has now taken over the role of Alice for Beaumont and has been her current voice actress since.

This enabled keeping the wonder and childlike quality of a young girl while allowing for some maturity. This was performed by Beaumont, the voice of Alice, who was drawn looking a bit older than her 7-year-old storybook counterpart. Like many Disney animated heroines, Alice was portrayed by a real-life actress as reference material for the animators. For the voice of Alice, Walt Disney wanted one 'that would be English enough to satisfy British audiences and preserve the feeling of an English literary classic, but not so English that it would put off American audiences.' He found that in the young actress Kathryn Beaumont, and within hours of her audition, Disney gave Beaumont the part. Walt Disney himself had specific instructions for how Alice should sound.
