Anne

Anne is an exceptional reader and writer, and her competitive nature can be seen in school, especially against Gilbert Blythe. She has a short temper and can act impulsively at times. She speaks her mind honestly and is not afraid to draw attention from others. Anne experiences flashbacks when she is triggered by traumatic moments in her life, due to the extensive abuse and mistreatment she received at the hands of her foster parents and at the orphanage. She desires to have friends and be well-liked, and succeeds in this with Diana, Ruby, Cole, and later Gilbert, Josephine and Miss Stacy as her closest allies.

Anne has red hair, commonly referred to as ugly by both herself and people harassing her, that she keeps in two braids. After a failed attempt to dye her hair black, her hair turns into a shade of green. As a result Anne has to cut her hair very short, ending up with a pixie cut for much of Season Two. When it grows out again she sometimes wears her hair down, showing that it's naturally wavy. Anne in thin with pale skin, with many freckles and bright blue eyes.

Her clothing is quite plain, although she is grateful for what she has, often wearing a brown dress that Marilla made. She owns a blue dress with puff sleeves that Matthew bought for her from Charlottetown, which she later gives away to her native friend, Ka'kwet, after she outgrows it. When she is prepared to head off to Queen's Academy, Mathew and Marilla bring her two new dresses; one purchased, and the other hand sewn by Marilla. She also gets a corset and a modestly elegant parasol, and begins wearing her hair up to show her maturity into adulthood.
