If you take Cinderella all the way to Hell, it might be worth mentioning Innana/Ishtar's descent into the underworld, where clothes (and jewelry, and makeup) also play a central role
A great point. Inana/Ishtar is certainly in the line of deities and heroes/heroines descending into the underworld. If I write more about Cinderella in this context, I’ll mention her. Thanks!
