Forever 21 recently announced the release of a new [Disney](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toy-story-30th-anniversary) x [Pixar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pixar-collection) line that will appeal to both kids and adults. While classic Disney characters have made plenty of appearances on fast fashion tees and sweats, this new collection showcases the popular cartoons on more contemporary pieces.

The Disney x Pixar capsule collection consists of of-the-moment pieces branded with characters from hits such as [Toy Story](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pixars-toy-story), Monsters, Inc. and Finding Dory. Instead of just graphic tees, the collection includes everything from bodysuits to bomber jackets. The collection also features pieces for men, women and kids, so Disney and Pixar-lovers of all ages can enjoy the nostalgia-inducing collection.

With budget-friendly prices and contemporary designs, the new collection demonstrates how fast fashion companys can better incorporate pop culture icons.
