Everyone’s favourite rodent, Mickey Mouse happens to be turning 90 this year. Since the character’s debut in 1928, Mickey has touched pop culture through cartoons, amusement parks, movies,  and is the source of some serious childhood nostalgia for many. So naturally, we’re delighted by all the limited edition capsule collections that have been popping up to celebrate […]

Imagine: falling in love with the prettiest luxury bag you’ve ever seen in a boutique window and not being able to afford it’s $1500 price tag in that very romantic moment.

Walt Disney couldn’t have predicted that his adorable anthropomorphic mouse would earn a fashion icon status well into his 80s. Mickey Mouse, born in 1928, is fashion’s perennial It boy, having made appearances on runways including like Marc Jacobs and Jean Charles de Castelbajac, and famous bodies of Miley Cyrus, Beyonce and Liu Wen all in the last few years.

Last month, Opening Ceremony launched a capsule collection in celebration of Mickey’s first animated film, Steamboat Willie. The film graphics are rendered on delightful button-down shirts, tees, sweatshirts, and plush-soft knit sweaters. The retailer-come-brand enlisted New Era for hats, Vans for sneakers, and Tabio for socks, making sure all of our Mickey needs are covered. Meanwhile, the French answer to Urban Outfitters, Eleven Paris, is also splattering the mouse’s image on their sweats and tees, and over on the fast fashion end, Forever 21 gives us an affordable alternative.

Men can also grab a more abstracted version of Mickey with Comme des Garçons SHIRT collection, which is certainly not a first Disney collab for the brand. Who can forget the flamboyant Mickey Mouse hat Anna Dello Russo sported last year at Milan Fashion Week? Of course, sporting mouse ears is a real thing now, perhaps thanks to Rihanna, who wore a Mickey Mouse-inspired helmet designed by Jeremy Scott in her music video for “Hard.” The unapologetic cartoon fan Jeremy Scott has used the image of our beloved rodent in his Fall 2009 collection, also famously worn by Lady Gaga in “Paparazzi.”

Matt Tyrnauer (director of Valentino: The Last Emperor) describes his movie as a “geriactric Brokeback Mountain” with dog toothbrushes and early morning bronzing rituals. [The Cut]   What do you think of these high-fashion Mickey Mouse ears (adorned by House of Holland, Giles, et. al.)? We love the spiked pair, even though they might look […]
