![]() There was a year growing up where I watched Hercules every night while doing my homework just to see The Muses, who meant so much to me. and the one you can shop in Disney Parks worldwide now is a near identical match to the dream that sparked so many years ago.ĭ23: How did your connection to Disney grow or change when The Princess and the Frog debuted in 2009?ĬQ: I grew up loving characters like Jasmine and Gabriella (a Black, Deaf mermaid from The Little Mermaid TV series) and constantly watching Hercules and A Goofy Movie because of the nods to representation. I was watching The Princess and the Frog around midnight while editing Halloween photos of myself dressed as Disney Princesses when I sketched out a Tiana inspired Minnie ear. This caused me to dream (during my Color Me Courtney time) of what a collection I designed with Disney would look like. This was years ago, and I was living my “Hannah Montana life” (Courtney by day, Color Me Courtney by nights/weekends), while Coach was creating its first Disney collaboration. I actually got my MBA at 21 and moved to New York with the hopes of working in fashion, but when I couldn’t get hired, I put on my resume, removed my MBA, and eventually found myself working in product development at Coach. As a kid, I didn’t quite know it would look like it does now, but I am so grateful my online journey lead me here. What gave you inspiration to combine your love for Disney with your passion for fashion?Ĭourtney Quinn (CQ): As a lifelong Disney fan, I think many of us dreamed of working with the company that means so much to us in some way. The Princess Tiana Collection by Color Me Courtney debuted on shopDisney at D23 Expo, and we sat down with Quinn to talk about the collection, her journey to this huge achievement, and what Princess Tiana means to her.ĭ23: You have always been a huge Disney fan. And, as of D23 Expo 2022, Quinn accomplished one of her milestone goals-designing a fashion line with The Walt Disney Company. Along the way, she started a lifestyle brand, Color Me Courtney, as a creative outlet where she could showcase her dynamic sense of style and empower others to “Dress Outside the Lines.” Since starting Color Me Courtney, and her subsequent pop culture blog, Color Me Magic, Quinn has amassed more than 1 million followers across her social media platforms.
