At Disneyland Paris, the 15th anniversary event is still going on until next year, and there was recently a "fashion event" at Paris "Magic Kingdom". The park asked some french fashion creators , among them some world reknowned like Azzedine Alaia or Chantal Thomass to design their own vision for the dress of the Sleeping Beauty or other characters like Tinkerbell.
The drawings of each of them were displayed in the Sleeping Beauty castle walkthrough at the 1st floor of the castle.
Each creator designed also the dress from their drawings and Chantal Thomass choose Tinkerbell.
They even did a mise-en scène of the Sleeping Beauty - still sleeping, as well as everybody around her, as you can see !
A party was organized , too, with musicians dressed in 18th century costumes , here inside the Cinderella restaurant with Jacques Hintzy, president of Unicef france as the event was to the benefit of the Unicef organization.
And even Maleficent was there for a night show with flames around her!
Yes, already 52 years since the picture above was shoot! And, to celebrate this anniversary, here are some great historical photos and many old videos from Youtube, with all my thanks to "freedogshampoo".
The bird-eye view above shows Disneyland in 1960, but before that, it was time for its construction, and for Walt to check that everything was allright - here on Peter Pan's flight.
Talking about construction, here is a video with Walt telling you all about it.
On opening day, Jungle cruise was already there...
And some years later, Walt made a special presentation of it to legendary India's prime minister Nehru...

Today on Disney and more is introduce The Disney and more Time machine! Each week it will take you back in the past to beloved WDI extinct attractions that no one can experience any more! Each time, you will find photos, artwork - when available - and, most of all, great videos that will allow you to "ride" the attraction , back from the past!
We begin today by two topics, one about the WDW Delta dream flight - now replaced by Buzz Lightyear, and one about the famous House of the Future, with a great video that will show you how amazing the house was, specially in the 1960's. Hope you will enjoy this new series!
Built of plastics, a revolutionary material at that time, the four wing"ultra-modern" House of the Future was on display from 1957 to 1967 at the entrance of Tomorrowland at Disneyland.The House of the Future featured the latest in furniture and appliances along with intercoms and other gadgets that were not common in most homes at the time.
Now comes at Disneyland's Innoventions the "Dream Home". Last week, the Disneyland Resort announced a five-year alliance with Microsoft, HP, Life|ware and home builder Taylor Morrison to showcase integrated digital technologies for the home in the immersive, story-telling experiences for which Disney is known. The alliance includes the design and development of the new Innoventions Dream Home attraction, a 5,000+ sq. ft. home belonging to the fictional Elias family, scheduled to open in May in Tomorrowland at the Disneyland Resort.
Keeping with Walt’s vision of bringing cutting-edge and inspiring ideas to Tomorrowland, the Innoventions Dream Home will introduce Disneyland guests to newly available technology from the participating companies that will enhance their lives today, while providing them a glimpse of the emerging digital advances they may find in their homes in the future. The attraction will provide guests with a “high-tech, high-touch” opportunity to experience technology in an entertaining, low-risk environment showing them how the power of technology can connect them to the people and things they care most about.
The technology companies will showcase a wide range of technologies and products in the exhibit, including the latest in mobile phones, PCs, digital music and gaming. The Innoventions Dream Home demonstrates how home technology can be simple, intuitive and fun while helping guests understand how to seamlessly interconnect their home, the surrounding community and the world, helping consumers stay closer to the people, places and entertainment that are most important to them. The alliances also help ensure that the Innoventions Dream Home remains on the forefront of technology with the newest devices and products as part of the exhibit.
Guests will actively engage in this experience as they help members of the fictional Elias family prepare for a trip to World Soccer Championships in China, where their son is competing. Elias family members rotate throughout the house, randomly interacting with guests in the various rooms.
So, this "Dream Home" will open in may, but before, let's have a tribute to the "House of the future" , with the pictures below.
This last picture is the great replica designed by Kevin Kidney and Jody Daily for Disney shopping.com
But the great document is this two part Monsanto video below that will show you how amazing, specially in 1960's the House of the Future was. Don't miss it, it's just like if you were there, 40 years ago!

Before Buzz Lightyear, the Dream Flight attraction - which told the history of flight - was one of Tomorrowland's favorite. Thanks to the video below you can board again for a ride full of memories or discover this extinct attraction if you didn't had the luck to ride it.
