Official star unveiled, along with new Coach collaboration.
Classic character Minnie Mouse has been honoured with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
The official star – which was unveiled at a glittering ceremony attended by Disney chairman and ceo Robert Iger and pop star Katy Perry among others – is in celebration of Minnie’s 90th anniversary.
The star was dedicated in the category of Motion Pictures next to the El Capitan Theatre.
To celebrate Minnie’s milestone anniversary – as well as National Polka Dot Day – a number of fashion collaborations are launching worldwide including a special edition Coach collection inspired by her iconic style.
The 20-piece collection includes handbags, small leather goods, ready-to-wear and specialty items – all infusing signature Coach silhouettes reimagined with vintage-inspired Disney patches and Minnie Mouse’s favourite polka dots.
Coach creative director, Stuart Vevers also designed a bespoke dress for Minnie, worn at a celebratory lunch immediately following the ceremony at Hollywood’s famed Chateau Marmont.
