“I am delighted to be working with the one, the only, the iconic Minnie Mouse. I have designed a custom outfit for her in celebration of the 30th Anniversary of Disneyland Paris. Minnie has always had a special place in my heart. We share the same values. What I love about Minnie is the fact that she embodies happiness, self-expression, authenticity and that she inspires people of all ages around the world. Plus, she has such great style!” said Stella McCartney in the official press release.

 

I wanted Minnie to wear her very first pantsuit at Disneyland Paris, so I have designed one of my iconic costumes – a blue tuxedo – using responsibly sourced fabrics. This new take on her signature polka dots makes Minnie Mouse a symbol of progress for a new generation. She will wear it in honor of Women’s History Month, in March 2022. I can’t wait for you to see this new look at Walt Disney Studios Park!” Stella continues.

Minnie Mouse was first introduced almost 100 years as the love interest of Mickey Mouse and in 1942, it was revealed that her full name is actually Minerva.


 

Minnie’s new outfit will be unveiled in March to commemorate International Women’s Day and the 30th anniversary of Disneyland Paris.
