Please mind the gap. You’re approaching a patriotic post about new handbags.
Dooney & Bourke, one of the frontliners in fashion at Disney, are set to release a new collection of purses. This time, the bags feature Mickey and Minnie, and a whole lot of United Kingdom icons. Tally ho, let’s have a gander…
The bags are black with red and white print, portraying sketch drawings of everything that reminds us of a “Best Day in the UK”. There’s a red bus, a red phone box, a Lancashire Rose, a Yorkshire Rose, Big Ben, Tower Bridge, a Beefeater (as in guard, not the restaurant), a thatched cottage, black cabs, crowns, cuppas, hidden Mickeys, and random British slogans like ‘Time for Tea’ and ‘Brilliant’. I can even spot the word “EPCOT” printed on there, which makes me miss the World Showcase even more.
Both bags have carry handles on top, and detachable crossbody straps, too. Pricing has yet to be released for the collection, but mark your calendars for June 5, when the set will be available on shopDisney.
As WDWNT’s resident Brit, I’m personally very excited by this new collection of purses. However, if your preferred patriotism lies across the pond, you should definitely check out this brand-new collection of Americana merchandise on shopDisney, including apparel, accessories and more.
