LOS ANGELES — Disney’s “Maleficent” may not be hitting the multiplex until Friday, but details about some of the merchandise (think fashionable goods for the bad girl) are starting to trickle out.
Among the notable stylish “Maleficent” merchandise: Stella McCartney kids’ clothes, Italian-made scarves and a jewelry collaboration with prices as high as Her Winged Wickedness’ prosthetically enhanced cheekbones.
o Crow’s Nest for Maleficent: Daniel Belevitch, creative director of U.K.-based Crow’s Nest, mined the movie’s dark motifs — think feathers, fire, thorns, horns and dragons — to create a high-end seven-piece jewelry collection that includes a dangerous-looking cuff that evokes the shape of Maleficent’s horns rendered in black rhodium and set with a pear-shaped onyx ($5,720), and a breathtaking rose gold full-finger-length ring encrusted with sparks of yellow and red sapphires ($20,880).
o Faliero Sarti: Luxury Italian scarf maker Faliero Sarti has created two modal and cashmere scarves in partnership with Disney Consumer Products. A blue one, edged in a thorn border design, depicts the dangerous Maleficent lurking in the foreground of a moonlit nightscape, a cottage visible in the background. A black one features an image of the sorceress in the center, framed by a border of stylized thorns, beaked skulls and black birds ($438 each).
