Sister by Sibling represent UK for 20 years of Disneyland Paris catwalk


Sister by Sibling the British design trio have been creating a one off costume inspired by Cinderella’s ball gown to be showcased at the Disney catwalk on March 23rd

To help celebrate the 20th anniversary of Disneyland Paris the designers, who specialise in knitwear, and showed their work at the London Fashion week back in February and have been selected to represent their respective countries. Sister by Sibling obviously being the U.K.

Now this is a big deal for us Brits, we have the chance to show off our quirky designers at a great event, and the trio really fit the job. The label is a collaboration between Joe Bates, Sid Bryan and Cozette McCreery. When asked what their trademark piece is they said ‘mutating classic, traditional knitwear designs or techniques so the Knit Monster Scare Isle comes to mind.’ Their quirky style is perfect for the Cinderella gown design as they will bring something new to the catwalk.

The dress is a knitted mini with hand embroidery and customised sparkle. Later this week it will be announced which Disney character each designer has been responsible for redesigning an outfit for. As said before it is the Cinderella ball gown which Sister by Sibling are revisiting and have said they "immediately felt an affinity with the three mice within the story: friendly, helpful with an inner strength and a familiar easy-going humour. And so, with the help of Jack (Sid), Gus (Joe), and Mary (Cozette), Cinderella will go to the ball and this ball will be rockin'!"
