But why shouldn't Disney create a line that appeals to the fashion conscience? Why shouldn't the "haves" in the world have Disney "couture" to choose from as well as the boring stuff we all wear? I mean, there is LOTS of high end Disney stuff in the marketplace at the moment. D&G, FS, one of my local botiques has an entire line of $90 Disney shirts of similar style and quality. It's fashion for the moment and it's no different than any of the other fashion trends that happen at any given time.
We Disney geeks did not invent liking and wearing Disney clothing. The powers that be at Disney just created a line that appealed to a higher-end market. Good for them. If it doesn't appeal to you, stay with the middle of the road stuff and don't buy couture if you don't understand the appeal. There are reasons The Gap and Kohls make tons of money selling safe clothing. It is appealing to the mases and people like to blend in. At least Disney is doing SOMETHING different and surprisingly almost hip for once. I may not buy one of these shirts but I sure found it refreshing to look at.
