LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. — Trendsetters and fashion gurus get ready to strut your stuff with a new line of Mickey Mouse ears all dressed up for the summer.

The trendy new Mouse ears come in a variety of vibrant colors and styles to suit the pirate or princess in your family. Gal versions don pink veils, jeweled princess crowns, or wild cheetah prints. For the boys, pirate scarves and hoop earrings adorn the headgear, plus Stitch-themed offerings and more. There’s also gold-sequined, patriotic-themed, and a bride and groom version.

While traditional black Mouse ears remain popular — with millions sold each year — it was time to have some fun and accessorize, said Dara Trujillo, Walt Disney World manager of merchandise franchise and synergy.

“Guests responded so well to the special golden Mickey Mouse ears created for the ‘Happiest Celebration on Earth’ last year,” said Trujillo. “We wanted to build off that success with a new generation of ears that reflect what’s hot in the marketplace.”

We will always go after the trends,” Trujillo said.

The new Mouse ears are available in limited quantities at select locations throughout Disneyland and Walt Disney World Resort. Prices are from $8.
