The Creative Vision Behind the Costumes

Isabelle Lemarie, tasked with creating the costumes for iconic characters such as Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, and Goofy, discusses the creative journey from concept to completion.

Through extensive research and the use of trompe-l’œil techniques, unique costumes were born, presenting the iconic figures in a new light.

The costumes reflect the transition from black and white to color and incorporate emblematic Disney elements, creating a vivid symphony of color and movement.

The Production of the Costumes

Marie-Odile Deniset oversaw the selection of materials and the production of the costumes. The development process took seven months, involving both the in-house tailoring department and external workshops in France and Europe. The challenge was to harmonize ergonomics, aesthetics, and functionality, resulting in costumes that are both visually stunning and practical.
