Summary: A widowed king promises his dying wife that he will only marry someone as beautiful as she was. After her death, he searches for such a woman but finds no one—until his own daughter grows up and resembles her mother. The king declares he will marry her, horrifying the princess. To avoid the marriage, the princess demands three seemingly impossible dresses: one as golden as the sun, one as silver as the moon, and one as glittering as the stars. She also asks for a magical cloak made of a thousand different furs ("Allerleirauh"). When the king provides all of them, she runs away in disguise, hiding her identity under the cloak. She finds work as a kitchen maid in a faraway castle. At night, she secretly wears her beautiful dresses and catches the attention of the young king. Eventually, he discovers her true identity, and they marry.
