Eat your hearts out, Disney princesses!
Minnie Mouse gets to wear Lanvin and you don't! Ha!
Minnie celebrated the 20th anniversary of Disneyland Paris on Saturday and she looked every inch the fashionista as she strutted down the runway in her custom Alber Elbaz-designed frock and silver pumps.
Mickey's beloved really werked that catwalk, too, waving to adoring fans and smiling her big smile.
A refreshing change from how all the pouty supermodels tend to do it!

Looks like Minnie Mouse has caught the fashion bug!
And the only known cure is custom Lanvin! Ha!
Even though she wore Lanvin in the video for Disney and Barneys Electric Holiday collabo, Mickey Mouse's main squeeze is hankering for more couture!
Luckily, creative director Alber Elbaz was more than happy to oblige–he designed

Disney and Barneys' Electric Holiday video is finally here!
Now you don’t have to go all the way to Madison Avenue to watch it! Though it would’ve been an excellent excuse to fly out to the Big Apple.
The short is just as cute as we expected, and we just love seeing the animated versions of the hoity-toity fashion crowd.
They shouldn’t have worried–the Disney artists made sure Naomi Campbell, Carine Roitfeld, et al, looked skinny and wrinkle-free. And Alber Elbaz looked extra adorbs!
But it appears that Disney and Barneys caved into all that pressure from activists and added a few extra sizes to Minnie Mouse’s model body.
We like it!
The original looked too much like a stick figure for our tastes.
Let the holidays begin by pressing play (above)!

She makes a marvelous Mouseketeer!
Sarah Jessica Parker joined Minnie Mouse for the unveiling of the Disney and Barneys’ Electric Holiday window display in New York City on Wednesday.
In an elegant three-quarter sleeve black sheath dress by L’Wren Scott, the 47-year-old actress looked like she was having a blast with her new large-eared friend.
We bet a lot of six-year-olds would’ve given all their candy to trade places with her!
In honor of the Disney theme, SJP wore custom-made veiled lace mouse ears, also by Scott.
Manolo Blahnik pumps (naturally!) and voluptuously wavy hair capped off the look.
Okay, this makes us really wanna put on our mouse ears and go to Disney World!

We can’t wait to see this!
As we mentioned before, Barneys and Disney have partnered up for the holidays to create an animated short dubbed, “Electric Holiday,” featuring beloved Disney characters hobnobbing with some of fashion’s most notorious personalities.
The short, which will be looped on LED tiles covering the facade of the Madison Avenue store, begins as a dream as Minnie Mouse finds herself gazing longingly at a Lanvin gown in a Barneys window display.
Her daydreams whisk her off to Paris

LEAVE BRITNEY MINNIE ALONE!
That's what blogger and dancer Ragen Chastain demands in a petition intended for Barneys' display communications manager, Rick Barroso.
The catalyst was the swanky department store's model makeover they gave to Minnie Mouse for their Disney-themed Electric Holiday windows.
Rather than featuring the polka dot dress-wearing rodent we all know and love, Minnie was transformed into

And here we though Mickey was the fine one!
Pictures of Minnie Mouse's designer collection have emerged just one day before it scurries down the runway in London, and it's far from cheesy!
The couture creations inspired by the Disney character includes a Lulu Guinness handbag in the shape of Minnie's head topped off with her iconic bow, a Giles Deacon dress and spiked bow headband (above), a floor-length gown designed by Richard Nicoll and Katie Hillier Minnie face gold necklace!
Once the designs have made their London Fashion Week debut, they'll be available for bidding on eBay, with proceeds benefiting the Fashion Arts Foundation.
We love it all!
Ch-ch-check out all the mousy pics (below)!
