While our hopes of becoming a member of The Mickey Mouse Club faded sometime in the '90s, our nostalgic attachment to the iconic Mickey headgear has admittedly endured. And, thanks to milliner Benoit Missolin's high-fashion twist on the famed ears, it seems we might have an excuse to break out the nostalgic set once again. Of course, this time it's in the name of making a major fashion statement — not (necessarily) to accompany us as we belt out "A Whole New World."
Missolin creates handmade hair accessories that heavily reference silhouettes from pop culture. And, this sumptuous take on the beloved Mickey silhouette — made from rabbit felt and trimmed with Swarovski pearls — is part of his latest whimsical collection. Retailing for $450, the luxe ears are the ultimate playtime accessory. Well, that is, if your play clothes call for pearl accents. So, if you're looking to cue up a trip down memory lane, head over to Valery Demure to shop the cute (albeit extravagant!) topper. A bit of childhood magic is just a click away.
