Disney x Givenchy have unveiled a collaborative collection of limited edition pieces inspired by the 1961 classic ‘101 Dalmatians.’ Givenchy recently teased the collection in a lookbook, sharing photos of multiple models at the dog park clad in the new garments. Accompanying the collaboration is an animated trailer featuring Kate Moss that sees the Dalmatians viewing the new Givenchy collection from outside a boutique window. Once the evil Cruella de Vil shows up, the once-friendly Dalmatians become angry, growling at the villain until she speeds off.
"To have the opportunity to tell a story and create new animation with the characters from 101 Dalmatians, through the imaginative and playful lens of the House of Givenchy, was an absolute dream[,]" commented Eric Goldberg, director and animator at Walt Disney Animation Studios.
The Disney x Givenchy 101 Dalmatians collection is now available on the Givenchy website and its boutiques.
