At South Coast Plaza’s Swarovski boutique, Loungefly unveiled a collaboration that immediately separated itself from the year’s usual holiday releases. Limited to 300 units per style, the Loungefly x Swarovski Minnie Mouse Collectionsteps beyond traditional fandom merchandise and into the realm of luxury accessory culture—precisely the kind of crossover piece collectors look for before the year ends.
According to Laura Flaig, Loungefly’s Director of Merchandising, the project had been incubating for years.
“Our team is obsessed with anything that sparkles,” Flaig says. “Disney and Swarovski already have a beautiful design legacy together, and bringing Loungefly into that space felt natural. Everything aligned at the right moment.”
The collection centers on a clean black-on-black palette, chosen to highlight Swarovski crystals and Minnie’s silhouette without overpowering either.
“We wanted these pieces to stop people in their tracks,” Flaig explains. “This collection is about two things: Swarovski crystals and Minnie Mouse—elevated, modern, and unmistakably Loungefly.”
The Gift Guide — Three Pieces, All Limited to 300
1. Minnie Mouse Swarovski® Crystal Mini Backpack — $400
Dimensions: 9″W x 10.5″H x 4.5″D
Why gift it: a collector’s anchor piece with long-term value.bber toe caps, the clog carries both form and function—a reflection of Silverton’s philosophy that beauty should always serve purpose. “For me, style in the kitchen and in my wardrobe are inseparable,” Silverton said. “If I don’t feel good in what I’m wearing, I don’t feel good about what I’m cooking. With Snibbs, we created a shoe that brings those worlds together.”

The “Quiet Fandom” Shift
One of the most compelling aspects of this release is Loungefly’s strategic shift into quiet fandom, a design direction built for audiences who want fandom present—but not dominant—in their daily style.
“We’ve been busy developing what we’re calling ‘quiet fandom’ collections,” the team shared. “These pieces let people control the volume of their fandom while still showcasing Loungefly’s innovation and quality.”
It’s a smart evolution. Today’s collectors aren’t only buying character-forward accessories—they’re investing in pieces that work from everyday life to special occasions, from Disney Parks to downtown dinners.
Beyond the craftsmanship, the collaboration signals a broader cultural shift: fandom and luxury are no longer separate categories.
“This is an exciting time,” Loungefly said. “Brands are breaking down barriers, exploring what happens when worlds collide—reaching new customers, challenging creativity, and making genuinely cool product.”
