what not to wear at WDW?

[ASweetLov]

I will be going with my sister to WDW next spring(her first time). While I love to wear shirts with characters and butterflies and anything pretty and comfy she is a bit different. She can be a bit "gloomy". She will wear 1 or 2 character shirts but she also has some tanks that have skulls on it that she finds to be comfy. Now I dont find the tanks to be scary at all, one is black and has a scull but other designes around that unless you stare at her shirt you wouldnt be able to notice it, plus it has some rainbow color glitter all over the front of it too. So, What shouldnt be worn to WDW? and what is prohibited to wear at WDW?

Thanks,
Natacha

I saw lots of people with skulls on their clothes last week. I think anything with a bad saying or showing to much skin will not be allowed in.

Heck, skulls fit in fine with the current pirates craze.

I don't remember exactly where I saw it, but someplace on the Disney World website there is a sort of "disclaimer" page that addresses some of these issues. While I obviously don't remember the exact wording I do know that in general they say that if you wear anything that shows too much skin they can ask you to leave or cover up and that any wording or image that is overly provocative can be a cause again for them to ask you to cover up, change, or leave. I would not necessarily take this to apply to things like skulls because you see so much of that. I would tend to think that something more in the political or religious arena that is overly negative would be the kind of thing they are talking about.

Basically common sense should prevail. There are two basic questions we always tell our kids that they should ask themselves before deciding if they should wear something or not. The first question is would they be uncomfortable having their parents, grandparents, etc. seeing them wear that item. And secondly, why are they wanting to wear it? In other words if they are wearing it just to get a strong reaction out of someone else then they should probably not wear it.

Skulls are actually very common in fashion, a current trend. As long as the shirt is not offensive, as in extremely graphic or has foul language, it will be fine

The Pirate stuff is so big right now she'll fit right in!

I'm an old lady, so modesty is important to me. Bikini tops aren't allowed inside the parks, and men have to wear shirts. I "think" those are the major rules, but decency, (to me), says, "if body parts are squeezing out, the clothes should be a size larger".

The one thing I can tell you what to wear is nice clothes. I am not saying Sunday best but geez some people walk around in rags! I was astonished by what some people chose to go out in public wearing especially while on vacation. It's called pride people.

Since there's kids there, I say don't where something that would be rated R in a film. Skulls, blood, guts, any kind of nudity just shouldn't be seen at Disney.

Also, no matter how overcast it looks, never ever wear a long sleeve shirt. You'll be hot as the

I'd avoid shirts that are overall darkly covered. I say this every time..but I still seem to find a way to pack at least one black shirt...then I get down there, unpack, and groan..."I did it again!"

If you are used to FL Temperatures, ignore this!

If you are not from east coast southern US or a more tropical humid area, you have no idea what HOT is till you experience Orlando in Mid-August....(I remember reading a post from someone up 'north' wondering how many sweatshirts should she bring in September to Orlando....)

As long as you don't wear anything too revealing or vulgar, then you should be ok. Also, don't wear high heeled shoes to stomp all over WDW in. I can't tell you how many ladies wear the most uncomfortable looking shoes. They might look nice, but their feet have to be screaming in agony!!

Once when I entered MK there was a young man in front of me wearing a t-shirt with a swear on it. Well he didn't make it but half way down Main St. before a CM told him to turn his shirt inside out.

I will also say anything containing nudity, vulgar language, obscene gestures etc... Definately comfy shoes no high heels.

DO NOT wear new shoes!!!!

[Mousemates]

on a hot florida day, try not to wear your feelings on your sleeve....it will not only make you feel miserable...but those around you as well.

I agree, you're crazy if you decide to wear new tennis shoes!

Skulls are in right now. She will fit in just fine.

You shouldn't wear turtle necks in August.

Oh, if only they stuck to the "no bikini tops" rule....we saw several bodies that had no business being in a bikini top, just strutting through the parks.....
