“Storytellers Spotlight” will debut a special episode on May 9, documenting the collaboration between Paris-based fashion label Coperni and Disney as part of Disney’s “Create Your World” campaign. The 30-minute special, produced by Emmy Award-winner Nzinga Blake, will offer viewers a behind-the-scenes look at the first fashion show ever held inside Disneyland Paris, which took place during Paris Fashion Week in October 2024.
Designers Arnaud Vaillant and Sébastien Meyer of Coperni led the event, presenting their spring 2025 collection against the backdrop of Sleeping Beauty’s Castle. The show featured Disney-inspired looks, blending elements from classic princess stories, villains and other iconic characters.

“They played up the fantasy elements with their collection, which was inspired by characters ranging from Ariel in ‘The Little Mermaid’ to the evil fairy Maleficent, but kept it grounded in reality with looks that channeled their brand of ‘It’ girl style,” WWD’s Joelle Diderich wrote in her review of the collection in October. “It’s probably the biggest project of our life,” Vaillant said backstage at the show.
The runway included a viral appearance by Kylie Jenner, who closed the show in a dramatic black crinoline gown. Jenner notably earned the brand nearly $17 million in media exposure, according to Launchmetrics.
