GIVENCHY AND DISNEY CELEBRATE THE 100TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE WALT DISNEY COMPANY WITH AN EXCLUSIVE CAPSULE COLLECTION
Oswald the Lucky Rabbit is the star of a collaboration and a new animated short film designed to celebrate the Lunar New Year and Disney’s 100th anniversary.
Givenchy and Disney are pleased to present a brand new capsule collection featuring Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, to celebrate the Lunar New Year 2023 and Disney’s 100th anniversary.
As The Walt Disney Company celebrates its 100th anniversary in 2023, Oswald the Lucky Rabbit reappears at the start of the Year of the Rabbit. For the first time in nearly 95 years, Oswald is the star of a brand new short film from Walt Disney Animation Studios: « Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. »
Givenchy’s Artistic Director, Matthew M. Williams, draws his inspiration from the four corners of the world, from New York to Paris, via Los Angeles, Shanghai and Tokyo. For this collaboration, the designer worked with Disney to imagine a « one-of-a-kind world tour » that combines Oswald’s mischievous and energetic spirit with Givenchy’s aesthetic, in a capsule collection that captures that spirit of adventure.
Women’s essentials include a blue teddy with white sleeves and Givenchy and Paris lettering showing Oswald the lucky rabbit offering a flower to his sweetheart, Ortensia. In a bright red oversized shirt and sports outfit with shorts, Oswald appears on a horse singing. The two characters come back as graffiti, through multicolored patterns on jeans and jackets.
The multi-colored t-shirts convey messages of love and recount the magic of a visit to Paris, while hoodies, tank tops and sweatpants incorporate the 4G emblem, stylized as a heart, and the Magic Kingdom, in off-white.
For the men, a red teddy shows Oswald riding a wild horse to Los Angeles, while the character can be found surrounded by bandana designs on a blue shirt. On the jeans, we find Oswald accompanied by a red horseshoe for good luck. T-shirts with the letters GIVENCHY display key words and locations, such as « Lucky » and « New York City. » On sweatshirts and tracksuits, we discover him ready to fight.
A wide range of accessories completes the collection and includes Givenchy x Oswald sneakers, card holders, tote bags, small shoulder bags, phone or headphone cases, and caps.
The Oswald Disney X Givenchy capsule collection will be available from December 16 in China, Singapore and in the Tokyo Ikebukuro pop-up store, as well as the Miami Aventura pop-up store on December 19. It will be available in the rest of the world on December 30 in stores and on givenchy.com.
Price: 220€ – 3 790€.
