MARKUS LUPFER X DISNEY COLLECTION

Knitwear maestro Markus Lupfer has been rooting through the Disney archives to dream up a collection of Mickey Mouse fronted takes on his trademark sequin pieces.

 Reflecting the DNA  of the Lupfer brand and the designer’s unique and artful approach to everyday basics, the unmistakable ears of Mickey sit upon the luxury of 100% merino wool and soft cotton in the five piece line.

The classic illustrations from the hands of Walt Disney – now graphically hand-crafted onto each garment in colourful sparkle – represent  the spirit of wit and playfulness Lupfer wanted to bring to the collaboration.

Disney Cinderella goes Designer with Christian Louboutin

Cinderella is renowned for her Glass Slipper, but this time Disney's Cinderella is going designer as Disney has invited Chrisitan Louboutin to add his own magic to the famous shoes.

 

Unfortunately we don't know the design yet as this will not be revealed until early July.
But we can have a guess.
Do you think it will have Louboutin's signature red sole?
And will he stick to the glass concept?

For updates keep checking  www.facebook.com/disneyuk

This collaboration comes the same year as Louboutin's 20^th anniversary retrospective exhibition at the London Design Museum and the global high definition launch of Disney’s animated classic masterpiece ‘Cinderella’ Diamond Edition on Blu-ray which will be released in the UK Sept 2012
