Iconic cartoon character Mickey Mouse is celebrating his 90th anniversary in the upcoming month and to honor the date, Disney and Opening Ceremony worked in collaboration on a new capsule. The new collection is a part of the fashion label's Fall 2018 offerings and it is full of aesthetics that stay true to its edgy style. The pieces really dive into nostalgic elements with design details that are directly drawn from Disney's archives. To add a personal touch, Leon of Opening Ceremony included his own drawings of Mickey Mouse.
Some pieces include mini dresses that have an A-line cut and mouse ears over the shoulder, dramatic taffeta items, faux fur coats with Mickey emblems and more. The pieces are available for purchase online at Opening Ceremony.
