Are you a fan of Disney Style? Then get ready because in celebration of Mickey Mouse’s 90th Birthday, Italian luxury brand Gucci has teamed up with The Walt Disney Company to create the perfect accessory for any Disney outfit: a Mickey Mouse handbag.
The bags made their first public appearance in the fashion world at Gucci’s spring/summer 2019 show in Paris, where they were carried down the runway by catwalk models as accessories.
The bags were designed to look identical to the iconic cartoon character; each bag’s body design was created to resemble the head of Mickey Mouse.
Gucci’s creative director, Alessandro Michele, who has served as the brand’s creative director since January 2015, oversaw the design and production of the bags. But the original Mickey look isn’t the only design Gucci will be releasing.
Another version of the Mickey bag comes in all white and features the character’s features in red. There are also drawings of a star and moon on Mickey’s Ears, an “x” over his nose and text running along his forehead. The collection also features an all-black version with red lettering as well as additional bags with the character’s traditional color palate.
