About Theodore Elyett:
- Theodore grew up in Nassau, The Bahamas, surrounded by art and fashion. His mother owned her own sewing factory, and he started making dresses at an early age.
- Theodore’s designs first hit the runway when he was 13 years old, in 1998—the very year Disney Cruise Line set sail.
- “The beauty of Mickey and Minnie’s looks are that they are literally ‘Junkanoo Fun in the Sun,’” Theodore said. “When you talk about the print, pattern, color, texture of Junkanoo, they’ve got that.”
