Plus Size What to Wear to Disney Parks
Comfort is important so choose your clothes to wear at Disney carefully, taking these key points in mind. Just because you're going to be walking around in the hot sun and eating giant turkey legs, there isn't any reason you still can't look cute! There are Disney PhotoPass photographers at every bend to capture your Disney memories and you want to look good! You'll be wanting to share your magical memories on social media and saving photos in an album so put a bit of thought into your ensemble. These are my suggestions for comfy but still cute clothes to wear at Disney!

Cute and Comfy Clothes to Wear at Disney
Before you go out and buy every shirt at the store that has Mickey Mouse on it, follow these tips about the best clothes to wear at Disney. You're headed to the original Disneyland in sunny California and not sure how to dress for the parks? Or you may be wondering what are the best clothes to wear to Disney World in wet and humid Florida? There are definite considerations to be made in either location for weather, shoes and accessories.
And I didn't forget the kids! I've included ideas for the little Mouseketeers too. Are costumes a good idea for kids? Or should you stick to regular day wear? If you're putting together your Disney World outfits or narrowing down what to wear to Disneyland, read on for all the Disney vacation packing tips!
Choose Breathable Fabrics to Wear at Disney
You'll be happier and more comfortable when you choose breathable fabrics, like cotton. That's why the souvenir Disney t-shirt is so popular! We're all rockin' the cotton Disney tee in this shot (except for my husband, who wears almostnothing but white t-shirts, ever!) Cotton tees dry quickly after a dunking on Splash Mountain too.
The Disney shops inside the parks stock tees in a wide variety of sizes and styles, including holiday versions for various seasons. Purchase before your vacation at ShopDisney. Some of the same styles can be found online while other are park-only exclusives.
Cotton Disney T-Shirts
At the top of everyone's packing list for clothes to wear at Disney is the cotton tee. And with good reason because they are comfortable, versatile and cute. T-shirts pair well with everything from jeans to shorts, shirts and sneakers. I found these adorable coordinating Minnie and Minnie Me t-shirts for my daughter and me on Etsy.
Disney Cuteness Tip: Choose women's styled shirts, which are a little more fitted and shaped, instead of boxy or shapeless tees. All the Disney Feels women's t-shirt from Get It Creations.
Think Outside the T-Shirt
In warm weather, a dress is a great way to stay cool and still look cute. I've chosen to wear the LulaRoe Nicki style dress to the parks several times. They are in breathable fabrics, have fun prints and look nice with low-top sneakers. When shopping for dresses to wear at Disney, choose a dress that isn't too short. You don't want to be challenged getting in and out of rides.
Even the adorable dresses from the Disney Dress Shop are appropriate for the parks and they are oh, so cute! You'll see lots of ladies wearing these Disney parks inspired designs all over Disneyland and Disney World. They are styled with thin straps or short sleeves so they are ideal dresses for summer time, but you could certainly pair the dress with a cardigan and coordinated tights in cooler weather.
Disney Cuteness Tip: Wear a pair of lightweight cotton shorts under your dress to prevent chafing. I use the Jockey Skimmies for light control and EMPETUA Shapermint High Waisted Shorts when I want more firming and smoothing.
Consider the Weather When Choosing What to Wear at Disney
Southern California weather is pretty unpredictable. It's generally hot in the summer and cool in the winter…sometimes. And maybe you'll have a beautiful warm and sunny day in May and the following day it's raining!
Also just because it's December doesn't mean you're going to need a winter coat, it could possibly be a surprising 80 degrees! It can be hard to pack clothes to wear at Disney when the weather's fickle. Make sure to check the 10-day forecast before packing if you're heading to California.
Another great option is a swim shirt. These are especially great at Disney World in Florida when weather is wet and humid. The swim shirts (ie: rash guards) from Lands' End are lightweight and dry quickly. The long-sleeved version covered my arms so I didn't have to apply sunscreen. Dress in layers if the mornings are chilly and the days are warm. Rent a locker to store the jackets and extra layers when you don't need them.
Disney Cuteness Tip: Choose fun accessories like the knitted Minnie-inspired beanie by The Pixie Dust Apparel on Etsy when the weather is cold and you're wearing a coat over your Disney outfit.
Baseball Hat
When the sun is shining, a baseball hat is a must in my opinion and it's fun to purchase them at the Disney Parks. I love to choose a hat (that doubles as a souvenir) on the first day of my trip so I can wear it every day.
Disney Cuteness Tip:Make sure to try the hat on in the shop. Be sure to check that it's sized correctly and isn't going to be uncomfortable.
Mouse Ears Headbands
What about Mouse Ear headbands? They don't do much in the way of protecting your head from the sun, but they are REALLY cute. However some of the styles are also extremely uncomfortable. These sequined styles are notoriously challenging to wear, as they are heavy and often press too hard at the temples.
If you can't try them on first, you might want to consider making your own with a comfortable headband you know won't give you a headache! Or try Etsy, as there are so many truly creative and unique Mouse Ear headbands available.
Sized for little girls, but also appropriate for adults, these sweet Mouse Ears headbands from Presley Couture have coordinating dresses. All very reasonably priced too!
Cute But Comfy Shoes
For the love of all things, leave the heels at home! Comfortable shoes are a necessity but you don't have to sacrifice style for comfort. There are lots of adorable and comfortable Disney-styled kicks. As you'll see in many of the photos here, I've been wearing my Keds Sneaker with low socks. They look cute with both jeans and shorts, are water resistant and cushioned inside for comfort. READ MORE:Best Shoes for the Disney Parks and find out why I love open-toed sandals.
Disney Cuteness Tip: Crocs clogs are a popular choice in the Disney parks and for good reason. They are comfortable and easy to wear in the summer because they dry quickly on water rides. However I think the smaller Crocs clogs are the cuter they are (ie: leave the Crocs clogs to the kids!)
Disney Bound Clothes to Wear at Disney
Use items from your closet arranged in a way to resemble your favorite character. Disney Bounding is a budget-friendly way to dress up Disney in the parks or even at home when you want to channel Disney characters.
Dressing up Disney is a really fun way to dress up in the parks, or at home to represent your favorite Disney character. Find out some fun ideas on my post that outlines some Disney Bound "rules".
Disney Cuteness Tip: Channel your Inner Minnie with something polka dotted. In my opinion, at Disney you can never go wrong with polka dots!

Accessorize in Style
I totally bought a "fanny pack" on my recent trip to Walt Disney World…yes, I did and I'm not embarrassed about it one bit! I loved having my hands free and my neck was hurting from carrying a purse on my shoulder through the Parks.
Choose either a waist pack or a crossbody style in a Disney pattern to use specifically for your trip. It's so helpful to have the individual pockets on a purse like the LeSportsac x Disney Crossbody Bag and having your hands free is invaluable. You can fit a surprising amount inside these bags! If you need more room for snacks or kid stuff, choose a Disney-themed backpack to store it all.
Disney Cuteness Tip: Jewelry accessories should be dainty to avoid damage or injury during the rides.

Kid's Disney Boutique Couture
I love making my kids coordinating outfits when we take Disney trips. Yeah, they'll probably hate me for it later, but they do look adorable! If you're not a seamstress yourself, Etsy is a go-to place for clever and unique Disney wear for your family. I love to find unique outfits for my kids to wear at the Parks.
For kids who prefer just a regular tee, check out these unique styles from Polka Dot Pixie Shop, like this "Wild Things" shirt my son is wearing. How great is that for a day at Animal Kingdom park?! READ MORE: For more ideas on how to dress the kids for Disney, check out the Best Outfits for Kids at Disney.
Dress for the Holidays
If you're planning a Disneyland vacation during a holiday, consider dressing up to match the season. You'll look great in photos with the seasonal decorations throughout the park! Think about pastels and florals in the spring, patriotic prints in summer, and Halloween-inspired DisneyBound in fall months. My daughter and I coordinated to dress up like red and green peppermint candies during Christmas at Disneyland.
These are my best tips for clothes to wear at Disney. What are your top "cute but comfy" tips for outfits at Disney Parks?
