🌹 About this Piece

Most Disney collectors immediately picture Aurora wearing either her pink or blue ball gown. This beautiful Couture de Force figurine celebrates something a little different—her time living peacefully in the forest as Briar Rose before discovering she is Princess Aurora.

Inspired by Disney's Sleeping Beauty, this elegant sculpture captures the gentle, graceful personality of Aurora with flowing fabrics, delicate sculpting and the sophisticated styling that has made the Couture de Force collection so popular.


📅 Production History

  • Released: 2016
  • Production Status: Retired
  • Collection: Disney Showcase Couture de Force

Being retired means this figurine is no longer produced by Enesco, making it increasingly sought after by Disney collectors looking to complete the Couture de Force princess range.


💎 Special Features

  • Beautiful woodland-inspired Briar Rose costume
  • Elegant Couture de Force fashion styling
  • Metallic gold detailing throughout the dress
  • Delicate sculpting of the flowing skirt and apron
  • Hand-painted with subtle shading and soft colour tones
  • Retired Disney Showcase collectible

🎨 Design Details

Unlike many Aurora figurines that focus on her life as a princess, this design celebrates her simpler life in the forest before Maleficent's curse was fulfilled.

The combination of earthy colours, graceful pose and couture-inspired styling creates a figurine that feels both timeless and elegant, while still remaining unmistakably Disney.


❤️ Why Collectors Love It

Collectors particularly enjoy this piece because it offers something different from the classic Aurora designs.

Instead of another royal gown, this figurine captures one of the most memorable parts of Sleeping Beauty - Aurora's peaceful life as Briar Rose. As a retired Couture de Force piece, it has become increasingly popular with collectors aiming to complete the Disney Princess series.


💭 What I Love About It

I always enjoy figurines that portray a character in a different moment from their story, and this one does exactly that.

The woodland dress is beautifully recreated with elegant couture styling, making it feel sophisticated while remaining instantly recognisable. It's a lovely reminder that Aurora's story wasn't just about becoming a princess - it was also about the quiet, magical life she lived before discovering who she really was.


🏡 Display Ideas

This figurine looks especially beautiful:

  • Alongside other Couture de Force Disney Princesses
  • As part of a Sleeping Beauty display
  • Displayed with woodland-themed Disney pieces
  • In a collection celebrating Disney's classic princess films

Aurora as Briar Rose is a wonderful example of why the Couture de Force collection remains so popular. Rather than simply recreating a familiar princess pose, it celebrates an iconic chapter of Aurora's story with elegance, charm and beautiful attention to detail.

For collectors of Sleeping Beauty, Disney Princesses or retired Enesco figurines, this is a piece that deserves a place on the shelf.
