” I was so shocked and honoured when out of the blue I got a call from Joan. She chose a number of my pieces as she has long been a fan of mine . It’s a wonderful honour to have my pieces in the new Disney film which launches on Disney+ on November 18th ” Pat exclaimed ..
Joan Bergin’s quote
It is a pleasure for me to acknowledge the contribution of Pat Whyte’s jewelry to Disney’s DISENCHANTED . This is late in my career ,my first Disney outing. Early on I decided not to follow the current trend of those highly talented and well-known Costume Designers who in half a dozen re-tellings of the old tales elevated the visuals to high-end couture. So, I decided to take a child’s view of a fairytale with bold shapes in great colors adding a touch of elan through the execution of every garment. That’s where Pat Whythe’s wonderful pieces fitted in perfectly with what I was trying to achieve.
I got to know Pat’s work by buying the odd piece of her work for myself from Anastasia’s, a local clothes and accessories boutique in Ranelagh where the owner
promotes Irish Designers. Where I can I have always done this. The red earrings which are almost a character in themselves, worn by one of the ugly sisters are by Simone Rocha. Pat Whyte thoroughly entered into the spirit of the creative process allowing us to swap out when necessary and was great to work with
