Miley Cyrus' recent coming-of-age single 'Used to be young' is about a young and wild Cyrus, full of unchecked emotions - guilt and anger, sadness and joy. It is a song of nostalgia, and what stands out the most is her simple, yet impactful styling. Thrown over a tank top sporting a Mickey Mouse illustration is a loud, sequined, red bodysuit. This ensemble is a spot-on throwback to her days as a famous Disney actress, and now, as a pop star.
Mickey Mouse first appeared in a short film 95 years ago
On November 18, 1928, Walt Disney gifted the animated universe Mickey Mouse in a short film named Steamboat Willie. To celebrate the birth of this iconic character, which continues to bridge the gap between generations, we invite two city-based stylists to give easy-to-do Mickey Mouse makeovers.
Mickey Mouse as a character, has given us one of the most iconic colour palettes to work with. Be it the bold monochrome print -and-pattern play we can derive from the dapper mouse, the layering of colour or just the very chic nature of this iconic character. Mickey, over the years, has given us a style statement that is fun and nostalgic, and if you want to pay homage to all the amazing memories we have growing up while watching him, do it in his way. And this first appearance anniversary gives us a chance to do so.
A black crop blazer with red sailor shorts
>> A classic black turtleneck with a red skirt is the easiest way to mimic the style. Another option that will transport you into Mickey's sartorial world can be a classic white dress, a black bow and a red trench.
>> Polka dots are a quirky, fun pick. Style a red sweatshirt or a jumper with a black and white polka dot skirt, put on some black Brogues, and you get a mix between fun and classic.
>> A men's tuxedo jacket with a bolero and burgundy red pants will make Mickey really happy. A black and white tank with a black crop blazer and red sailor shorts will make a cute fit too. Throw in patterned stockings and a black sling back shoe, and you're ready to go.
Mickey Mouse is one of the most instantly recognisable characters in the world, and he is the quintessential character to dress as for Disneybounding [a Disney-inspired styling method].

>> For the ultimate Disney fan, a red shirt with a black blazer and black bowtie is affectionately dubbed the Mickey Mouse ensemble. This stylish and playful combination is sure to turn heads and capture the essence of the beloved cartoon character. Slip into a red shirt, wear a black blazer, and don't forget that charming black bow tie.
>> For a standout and dapper look, pair a tuxedo blazer with red pants and a yellow bow tie. The contrasting colours of red and yellow will create a bold and eye-catching combination. Complete the look with a crisp white shirt and black shoes for a polished and fashionable look.

>> Another outfit that looks cool is a check-print red shirt, paired with a sleek and stylish black trouser for a touch of sophistication. To add an extra touch of charm and nostalgia, rock a pair of suspenders that not only elevate your style but also pay homage to Mickey Mouse's timeless fashion sense. Complete the look with a classic Mickey-ear hat to instantly transform into the Disney character.
>> For a last-minute, Mickey-ready look, wear a white Mickey Mouse tee shirt and pair it with red check-printed pants. The iconic design on the tee shirt adds a touch of charm and nostalgia to this classic ensemble.
