Apparel featuring male-oriented designs incorporating Walt Disney Company characters and themes, intended for wear by young males during the Halloween season, constitutes a specific category of clothing. Examples include t-shirts displaying Mickey Mouse dressed as a vampire, Goofy as a ghost, or imagery incorporating elements from films like “The Nightmare Before Christmas.”
Such garments provide a readily accessible means for children to participate in the festive atmosphere of Halloween. These items allow for self-expression, allowing wearers to display affinity for favored characters and narratives. Historically, licensed character apparel has served as a significant segment of the children’s clothing market, capitalizing on the enduring popularity of established intellectual properties.
