Ranging from $25 to $289, the collection is currently available at Pleasing pop-ups in select Disney stores, such as Disney Springs in Orlando, Fla., as well as the brand’s locations in Times Square in New York and on London’s Oxford Street.

At Disney Springs, the former NBA experience space has been reimagined with a purple keyhole-shaped entrance with hot-pink accents. Inside, plush red curtains are offset by seafoam walls, pink and turquoise display cases, and a deep blue carpet.

In addition to the collaboration collection, other Pleasing products are available to shop in-store, including its wide variety of nail polishes, knit bucket hats and fragrances.

The partnership will be available internationally on Oct. 4 on pleasing.com and disneystore.com.

“From very early on, ‘Fantasia’ was always in the front of our minds at Pleasing. The aesthetics, the mood, the bold illustrations, the colors and, ultimately, the epic world that Disney has created, were very much a world that resonated with Pleasing,” said Harry Lambert, Pleasing’s creative director.
