We have your first look at the all-new EPCOT Cast Member costumes
Guests visiting EPCOT will notice a fresh new look for some cast members-the park has rolled out new Cast Member costumes.

The new costumes can be found throughout the World Celebration neighborhood at EPCOT. We found cast members wearing the new costumes at the main gate, in Creations Shop, in Connections Eatery, and in other areas throughout World Celebration.
Disney has continued the trend of sourcing costumes via reusable materials by also making these costumes out of partially recycled fabric. The costumes are very eye-catching, featuring a dark gray base fabric with pops of color and a pattern that resembles Spaceship Earth on one side.
Disney has been sourcing many costumes from recycled materials recently. The costumes are made by melting recovered plastics into threads, which are then dyed utilizing a waterless method that preserves tens of thousands of gallons of water when compared to more traditional methods.

In addition to the new EPCOT costumes, many other cast members at Walt Disney World Resort also wear costumes sourced from recycled materials. 70% of the base material for the cast member costumes at Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind is produced from recycled materials, and the costumes for TRON Lightcycle / Run are made from recycled polyester.
On Disney Cruise Line, 60% of all fabrics used in the production of the Disney Wish adaptation of “The Little Mermaid” were sourced from plastic debris. Costumes for positions such as deck bars and Cabanas are also produced from recycled water bottles.
