Packing for a Disney vacation isn't just about what to wear for the weather or fashion, there's also a fairly detailed Disney dress code that you need to know about.
“Can I wear this outfit to Walt Disney World?”
What You Can and Can’t Wear on Your Walt Disney World Vacation
Choosing your wardrobe for a Walt Disney World vacation is part of the anticipatory build-up to your departure day. But did you know that Disney World has a set of guidelines for what you cannot wear in Disney Parks and Resort properties?
Part 1: This is a Family Park, So Dress Accordingly
Disney’s dress code for Walt Disney World begins with a general statement:
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 you to use your discretion and common sense.
This is a reminder that Disney takes seriously its reputation as a wholesome family destination. If you have a local non-Disney theme park, then you might know what it’s like to see certain attire that would never make it past the front entrance of a Disney Park.
So if you’re wondering if a certain top or shorts will be allowed into a Disney Park, ask yourself if you’d consider it to be family friendly. That is the lens through which it will be viewed at the front gate.
A Look at the Disney World Dress Code and Guidelines
The next part of the Walt Disney World dress code gets a little more specific.
Part 2: Inappropriate Attire for Walt Disney World
It’s not all left up to the discretion of Cast Members, as there are some specific guidelines.
The Walt Disney World Dress Code clearly and plainly states that Cast Members can refuse entry, or kick you out of the park, if you are wearing anything that is inappropriate or that could detract from the experience of other guests.
Specifically, the Disney dress code states:
Attire that is not appropriate for the parks—and which may result in refusal of admittance—includes, but is not limited to:

Attire that is not appropriate for the parks—and which may result in refusal of admittance—includes, but is not limited to:
- Costumes and costume masks, which may not be worn by Guests 14 years of age or older.
- Clothing with objectionable material, including obscene language or graphics
- Excessively torn clothing
- Clothing which, by nature, exposes excessive portions of the skin that may be viewed as inappropriate for a family environment
- Clothing that touches or drags on the ground
- Clothing with multiple layers is subject to search upon entry
- Objectionable tattoos
Costume Exceptions Include:
- Specific Halloween and Christmas events*
- Some outfits inspired by Star Wars.
* Note that Disney ticketed parties and events have their own specific dress codes, as does Galaxy’s Edge. So be sure to check those as well.
There are also general rules that apply to the entire Walt Disney World property. They include clothing, but go far beyond just clothing. You can find the Walt Disney World Property Rules here.
For the most part, Disneyland Resort in California has the exact same set of rules and regulations posted on its website.
