Planning a trip to Walt Disney World is so much fun, but packing isn’t. It can be hard to figure out what to bring in your suitcase and what clothes you’ll want to wear.
There are a few things to keep in mind though.
This post will help guide you through what to wear to Disney World, will give you outfit ideas, and tell you some things to add to your Disney World packing list for your next Disney World trip.
It’s always fun to dress cute and wear Disney shirts while visiting Walt Disney Company theme parks.
It’s especially fun to wear Disney Christmas shirts during the holiday season and to wear Halloween Mickey shirts if you’re going to Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party.
Let’s dive right into what to wear to Disney World!
What To Wear To Disney World Tip #1 – Wear Comfortable Shoes
Your shoes will get a lot of use on your vacation since you’ll likely be walking a few miles a day in the parks.
You want to make sure that your shoes are comfortable and durable for these long days of walking.
So make sure your packing list includes comfortable shoes for your Disney vacation.
If the weather forecast is showing rain, make sure you’re wearing shoes that can get wet.
I also recommend packing a few pairs of shoes for your vacation so that you don’t wear the same pair everyday. This always helps my feet from getting really sore.
If you’re visiting Disney World during a warmer time of year you may also want to bring flip flops to wear in the theme parks.

2. Dress In Layers
If you’re planning to spend most of the day at the park, you might experience cold weather in the morning and evening, and warm or hot weather during the day.
Layers are a great way to dress for this, especially if you’re going to wear a tank top. Tank tops work during the day, but aren’t great for night time.
You can wear a light jacket and a sweatshirt, or just one of those.
It’s best to not bring a big jacket if you don’t plan to wear it all day because then you’ll have to carry it around and it can be frustrating.
Moisture wicking shirts are a great option for really hot, humid days. Short sleeve shirts are best.
3. Mickey Ears
Mickey ears are a really fun way to show your personality and to show your love for Disney. There are so many fun ones out there that you can buy to wear on your trip.
4. Light Colors
If it’s a hot day, keep in mind that light colors don’t attract heat from the sun the way that dark colors do.
It’s fun to wear light colors, then have a pop of color with a Disney graphic tee.
5. Comfortable Bottoms
There’s nothing worse than being uncomfortable in your outfit and not being able to change all day. Make sure your pants or shorts are comfortable.
You don’t want them to be too tight and restricting so that they are uncomfortable when you sit on a ride.
You also don’t want them to be so big that you’re constantly pulling them up all day.

6. Simple Jewelry
It’s best to wear simple jewelry that won’t fall off, get scratched on rides, or break.
If you want to wear a watch, choose one that’s not too expensive and that doesn’t have sentimental value.
Keep in mind that you might want a water proof watch if you plan on going on any water rides where you can get wet.
If you’re going to wear earrings, it’s safer to wear studs rather than dangly ones.
7. Dress For Rain
Check the weather forecast before you get to the park. It rains often in Florida at Disney World, so you want to be prepared for it.
I suggest taking a rain jacket and also bringing a poncho. They sell ponchos in the park, but they are really expensive.
So buy a cheap one beforehand to take with you and you won’t have to worry about getting one once it’s already raining.
A rain jacket is nice for light rain, but if it’s a big downpour, I think a poncho is best since it covers most of your legs too.
8. Hands-Free Bag
Most people bring a purse or some sort of bag or backpack into the park. Bringing one with small handles will cause you to have to really hold onto it all day.
Bring one that goes over the shoulder or a backpack so that your hands are free while wearing it.
You also want the bag to be able to zip closed so that nothing falls out of it while you’re on rides.
What Not To Wear
On Disney World’s website they list out some things that you are not allowed to wear in the park. You can find that information here.
These are the main things to not wear:
- Costumes and masks are not to be worn by people ages 14+. There are some exceptions for holiday events though.
- No clothing with obscene language or graphics
- Extensively torn clothing
- Clothing that shows excessive portions of skin
- Clothing that touches or drags on the ground
- Clothing with multiple layers may be searched upon entry to the park
- No objectionable tattoos
- Shoes and shirts must be worn at all times
Now for the fun part! I’ve found some really cute Disney outfits that people, including myself, have worn to Disney Parks.
These Disney World outfits should help inspire you to put together some cute outfits for your next theme park visit.
