The Peanut's girl gang received a high-class makeover from the likes of Prada, Giambattista Valli, and Maison Martin Margiela. As anticipation builds for 'The Peanuts Movie,' retailers and artists are celebrating its famous characters with modern re-interpretations like this fashion-forward example.
This playful images stay true to each character's signature color tone. Peppermint Patty is seen sporting a Prada two-piece suit that fits her like royalty. Lucy Van Pelt is dressed in avant-garde Maison Martin Margiela gown. The sleek blue outfit is conveniently equipped with pockets as well. Finally, Sally Brown dons Giambattista Valli and is given a dainty puffy pink dress to accentuate her innocent personality.
While cartoon characters traditionally sport the same clothes day after day, InStyle fashion director Melissa Rubini felt obligated to give a new look to Peppermint Patty, Lucy Van Pelt and Sally Brown.
