Darlings! FASHIONEARSTA Sarah, aka “EarGoddess” here! I simply couldn’t resist telling you about my latest adventures during Milan’s Fall/Winter Fashion Week! As we all know, the magnificent Edna Mode is such a timeless fashion icon, and I was absolutely shocked to receive an invitation to her runway show. I knew I HAD to have the perfect outfit – if not merely to impress Edna herself, then to see if my “street style” could catch the eye of any photographers!
As luck would have it, the creative at Itty Bitty Britty Bowtique had a unique inspiration piece for my outfit; my embroidered glitter vinyl tribute ears made a huge splash. Even alongside the stunning black-and-white collection Edna created (complete with rocket stilettos and nuclear jumpsuits), my ears stood out as a sparkly, shiny homage to the world-renowned superhero fashion designer. With her favorite saying and her profile flashing as I moved around, these ears were the epitome of style. The embroidery and stitching were the top-notch, and many celebrity designers in attendance stopped me to remark on their quality and design.
After the runway show, I spent some time fielding compliments from admirers, signing autographs, and answering questions about my ears:
“Where did you get those?”
“Does your designer do custom work?”
“How can I get a pair?”
The questions kept coming well into the evening, following me down the street and all the way to the after-party. There weren’t any photos allowed at the after-party (Edna is very private), but I will tell you that Ms. Mode personally complimented me on the lovely stitching and craftsmanship, as well as the lightness, of my ears. In fact, I wore them all night, and my head didn’t hurt one bit!
I’ve received several lovely messages from friends I made that night, and I am looking forward to many more parties, soirées, and galas. Keep your eyes peeled for more fashion fun!

Who would love these?
I highly recommend these ears for the discriminating FashionEarsta looking for “functional and fabulous” ears. Anyone who loves sidekicks, super suits, Disney fashion or The Incredibles!
What Needs Work
Shipping/Packaging:
Needs some love. Item was shipped in a tie dye rainbow envelope with only a cut-up priority mail cardboard envelope wrapped around the ears inside for protection.
Where should future FashionEarstas be seen in these ears?
Pixar Place has been transformed into Municiberg in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, where Edna has her very own “Edna Mode Experience”, complete with a Super Suit gallery. But REMEMBER… no capes! You also can visit her meet-and-greet near the Incredicoaster on Pixar Pier in Disney’s California Adventure.
Overall Score: (4.7/5)
