Jess Cartner-Morley on fashion: brighten the winter gloom with accessories that add personality
"Miss Bianca, star of the 1977 film The Rescuers, is Disney's most underrated princess. As the Hungarian delegate to the Rescue Aid Society, an international humanitarian organisation run by mice with a secret headquarters in the walls of the UN building in New York City, Miss Bianca travels the world rescuing children in peril, and never allows being a mouse"
"In a violet pillbox hat with a matching scarf tied in a bow, or dashing shades of mustard, Bianca makes cosy winter dressing look delicious. She might be a mouse, but she is never, ever mousey.

A cartoon mouse is an unusual place to begin an article about winter accessories."
Miss Bianca, the Hungarian delegate mouse from The Rescuers (1977), combines international humanitarian work with mid-century-inspired winter style, favouring shawl-collar trapeze-line coats and signature scarves and hats. Her pillbox hats, matching bow-tied scarves and mustard tones make cosy winter dressing look delicious without ever appearing 'mousey'. Michelle Obama’s 2009 inauguration ensemble—lemongrass Isabel Toledo coat offset by olive-green leather gloves, with her daughters in contrasting scarf-and-glove sets—showed how accessories create memorable, relatable looks. Scarves and gloves in unexpected colours act as glimmers of winter sunlight. Winter dressing remains function-led and safety-first, with accessories providing personality.
