Disney's Minnie Mouse has emerged with a brand new look - and fans aren't happy.

Disneyland Paris shared an image of the new and improved Minnie Mouse on Twitter, which reveals she is no longer wearing her trademark red and white spotty dress.

Instead the cartoon character is now donning a blue and black polka-dot pantsuit, designed by renowned fashion designer Stella McCartney.

Walt Disney's Minnie Mouse has sported a dress since she first made her debut back in 1928, appearing the film Steamboat Willie.

Minnie's outfit has been redesigned as part of a campaign for Disneyland Paris' 30th year anniversary.

The famous female mouse is set to debut her new power suit in Disneyland Paris' entertainment resort from March 2022, where she will wear sport it in time for Women's History Month.

Stella McCartney has reportedly said that the new outfit makes Minnie Mouse "a symbol of progress for a new generation."

The topic was discussed on Loose Women on Friday morning, and both the panel and viewers were divided over Minnie's new outfit.

"Why is Minnie Mouse getting a pantsuit?! Her dress is cute and iconic," viewer Sophie said.
