10 Things NOT to wear at the Disney Theme Parks

There are standards, people.  There are some things that you simply cannot get away with when visiting Disney World or Disneyland.  Most of these are common sense, of course, some may be new to you. Either way we want to help you plan the most Magical Visit possible with these tips.

The official verbage from Disney indicates that “Disney reserves the right to exclude visitors to their gated attractions who wear clothing that could create a distraction.  This policy is in effect at the Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Disney MGM Studios, Animal Kingdom, Blizzard Beach, Typhoon Lagoon, and Disney Quest.”

“Proper attire, including shoes and shirts must be worn at all times.  The parks are a casual, family-oriented environment.  Ensuring that the parks are family-friendly is an important part of the Disney experience.  In that spirit, we ask that you use your discretion and common sense.”

My typical mommy uniform at Disney consists of cargo shorts, Mickey Tshirt, braids, Mickey visor, and either sneakers or my beloved Chacos.  For what it’s worth, I’ve never been asked to tone it down!

So, you are headed to Disney and are wondering what to pack!  Here is a list of things you definitely do NOT want to wear to Disney.

1. Clothing displaying offensive messages/language.
2. Adult costumes are a no-no.  Children under age 10 are excluded from this policy.  Exceptions include Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party.
3. Clothing made of offensive material (see through).
4. Clothing that is excessively torn. 
5. High heels – even if they are super cute sandals.  Did you see the episode of Modern Family where Gloria wore high heels that KILLED her?  She ended up wearing slippers that Jay bought her to survive the day at Disney.  I think they were Minnie feet?  Look, if Gloria can’t manage it…you certainly can’t.
6. Clothing that exposes inappropriate portions of the body such as string bikini tops, G-strings, bikini bottoms, etc.  Would Snow White show a whale-tail?  I think not.
7. Objectionable tattoos – if they have obscene language or graphics – cover ’em up!
8. I know that it is mentioned above, but let me be clear – you CANNOT walk around the parks just wearing a bikini top.  It’s tacky, and against the rules.  Even for kids.
9. Masks (except at Halloween)
10. Fanny packs – JUST KIDDING!  If you must, the fashion police may nab you,  but Disney loves a good fanny pack! Same thing goes with Crocs. Again kidding. 

Be smart, guys.  This is Disney – the Happiest Place on Earth.  Dress the part!
