Anna
The interesting thing about Anna is that she is the protagonist and almost nobody remembers it. Frozen is her story — she is the one who leaves, travels, is deceived, and performs the act of love the plot turns on — but the film's iconography belongs entirely to her sister, because ice is more photogenic than earnestness and a power ballad outsells a duet.

Who is Anna?
The interesting thing about Anna is that she is the protagonist and almost nobody remembers it. Frozen is her story — she is the one who leaves, travels, is deceived, and performs the act of love the plot turns on — but the film's iconography belongs entirely to her sister, because ice is more photogenic than earnestness and a power ballad outsells a duet. Kristen Bell plays her deliberately unpolished, tripping over sentences in a way the studio's heroines had not been allowed to before. She is drawn as the warm half of the palette against Elsa's cold one, in greens, russets and black with the Norwegian rosemaling pattern on the bodice, and that pairing is why the two-shirt sibling set is one of the most reliable sellers in children's apparel.

Why Anna endures
A lead character overshadowed by her own supporting cast, and the warm half of the most commercially successful two-character palette Disney has designed.
What Anna looks like on a shirt
Signature motif: Green and russet travelling cloak, twin braids, rosemaling embroidery
She is the warm half of a deliberately split palette, which means the design only really works when it can be read against her sister's blues. Single-character Anna prints underperform; the sister pairing does not.
Sells as a pair, not alone. Green and russet on cream or heather; against Elsa's blues the set reads instantly. Sibling two-shirt buying is the pattern here, so stock the sizes adjacent to each other.
