Character Outfit Revealed for Disney Lookout Cay
If you enjoyed Disney Cruise Line’s earlier sneak peek at Mickey and Minnie Mouse’s new designer looks for their visits to Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point, then you’ll want to see today’s special reveal of every character look for the destination!
Acclaimed Bahamian fashion designer Theodore Elyett created these adorable looks, which showcase the vibrant spirit of the beloved Bahamian tradition, Junkanoo.
Theodore designed all eight looks with traditional Junkanoo style in mind, including eye-catching details like fringe. Can you spot it in Goofy’s vest? Like Mickey Mouse’s conch shell shorts and Minnie Mouse’s pineapple purse, Bahamian island inspiration also makes these vacation looks especially bright—check out the ocean waves and sun rays in Donald Duck and Chip and Dale’s looks.
“I envisioned creating a collection that not only highlighted Bahamian culture, but one that also allowed Mickey and his pals to look and feel as though they were comfortably on vacation, island style,” said Theodore. “’Junkanoo Fun in the Sun’ is an exclusive line-up of all things Bahamian, celebrating the beauty of The Bahamas, all tailored to match the varying personalities of Mickey and his pals.”
To match Mickey and Minnie Mouse’s raffia accessories, the natural Bahamian straw handiwork is woven into these outfits with straw visors, oversized beach hats and bucket hats on Donald and Daisy Duck, Goofy, and Chip and Dale. The adorable raffia poms on the dresses, shoes, hat brims and shoulder straps are also a nod to this traditional Bahamian craft!
Now, can we take a moment for Daisy Duck’s hat? And Goofy’s socks? Pluto looks vacation-ready with his dapper collar!
