Minnie Mouse has a new style, and she's a boss lady.

The Disney character's staple look features a red polka-dot dress paired with her signature bow, and is one of the company's most iconic cartoon stars.

But Disneyland Paris is keen to show us the other side of Minnie, which sees her wear a pantsuit for the first time ever.

Check out Minnie Mouse's new style here:

To celebrate Women's History Month in March, Disneyland Paris announced that Minnie Mouse will be undergoing a temporary transformation in her style.

In an announcement on Tuesday, January 25, the theme park said the beloved character will wear a pantsuit for the first time during the park's 30th-anniversary celebration.

Disney shared the first look at her new outfit on Twitter. Her outfit includes a deep-blue blazer, matching pants, and an oversized bow — all of which are covered in her iconic polka dots.

Speaking with D23, Disney's official fan club, the British fashion designer said she is "delighted" to work on an outfit for a character as "iconic" as Minnie Mouse.

Check out the new costumes Disney's iconic characters will be wearing: 

"Minnie has always had a special place in my heart," McCartney said. "We share the same values. What I love about Minnie is the fact that she embodies happiness, self-expression, authenticity, and that she inspires people of all ages around the world. Plus, she has such great style!"

McCartney went on to say that she made sure to use "responsibly-sourced fabrics" when creating the outfit.

"This new take on her signature polka dots makes Minnie Mouse a symbol of progress for a new generation," she added.

"She will wear it in honor of Women's History Month in March 2022. I can't wait for you to see this new look at Walt Disney Studios Park!"

When not wearing the pantsuit, Minnie will join other classic characters in wearing a new set of outfits specially designed for the anniversary celebration.

A video of the outfits posted by Disneyland Paris shows the characters wearing reflective dresses, and see-through accessories.

Disneyland Paris organized its own fashion show where Mickey, Minnie, and pals "hit the catwalk".
