The Italy pavilion in EPCOT has been releasing new merchandise since August, most recently a new ear headband and scrunchie set has joined the Topolino Collection.
We spotted them for sale at La Gemma Elegante in the Italy Pavilion.
These items perfectly match the rest of the Topolino collection released this past August. In September Disney added a Loungefly mini backpack and purse to the Italy pavilion collection.
Recently many of the pavilions in EPCOT have been receiving new merchandise, like Mexico, Germany, and the United Kingdom. This refresh in merchandise has also come with the addition of pavilion-specific Lug purses as well. Italy received a Lug featuring Minnie Mouse, Germany received a Lug featuring Mickey Mouse, and Canada received a Lug featuring Chip.
Italy Pavilion Ear Headband – $34.99
The new Ear Headband features Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse. The headband is blue with a Spaceship Earth pattern in the background of each ear and small embroidered features. In the center is a blue sequined bow with a button affixed to the center that reads, “Ciao.”
On the right ear, Mickey Mouse is casually leaning against a light pole wearing a blue button-down and cream pants. He has a fedora on that matches his outfit. Behind him, there is an Italian building, like the ones in the Italy pavilion. Behind the building there in the horizon sits clouds and Spaceship Earth.
On the bottom left of the right ear, there is an orange flower-lined with embroidery.
As previously stated the blue sequined bow in the center is sewed in with a small pendant in the center. Spaceship Earth is also seen in the pendant in the top center in dark blue. The image looks like the waterways found in Italy with hanging bistro lights strewn across the waterway.
On the left ear, Minnie Mouse can be seen speeding around the Italy pavilion on her bicycle and hat flying off. She has a basket of flowers at the front of her bike. Behind her is a similar background to Mickey, with the Italy pavilion and Spaceship Earth behind her. The orange embroidered flower sits at the top left.
The back of the ears features a Spaceship Earth pattern in light and dark blue. There is a bright red rim around the ears.
Here is a closer look at the back of the ear, the red lining helps break apart the blue seen throughout the design.
On the sides of the ear headband in the small yellow font are “EPCOT World Showcase” on the left side and “Italy” on the right. The font choice makes each side easily legible.
Italy Pavilion Scrunchie Set – $16.99
There was also a three-piece scrunchie set added to the Italy collection. The first scrunchie is light blue an features a repeating pattern seen throughout the collection. The next is yellow with a repeating pattern. Finally, there is a velvet emerald scrunchie that features small golden charms.
The light blue scrunchie has Mickey and Minnie Mouse with many Italian words throughout, like ciao and Italia, EPCOT is also featured.
The yellow scrunchie is similar in design but different in color. This scrunchie leans more toward the Topolino designs of brown and gold.
On the velvet scrunchie, there is a Mickey Mouse head charm and a flower charm. This is the perfect accessory for any Disney fan looking to stay low-profile.
