Labels like Il Gufo, Monnalisa, Ice Iceberg, Twinset Simona Barbieri, Ermanno Scervino Junior, N°21, Sarabanda, Mimisol Imelde Bronzieri and La Stupenderia have each created an exclusive design for the Miffy plush toys.

The outfits for Miffy were also featured on special edition t-shirts, a preview of which was shown during the 83rd Pitti Bimbo show at Fortezza da Basso, and now on sale in top international department stores.

Part of the proceeds from the two projects will be donated to Oxfam Italia to support their initiatives in helping

refugees, including a project in Sicily where Oxfam assists unaccompanied minors, offers them education and helps them integrate in host communities.
