Costume change applies to MNSSHP?

[MagicHappens1971]

I don't mean to twist your words. My point is that they say you aren't allowed to wear a costume in the parks, but they don't define what constitutes a costume.

You're 100% right. They don't define what a "costume" is. Which is why the judgement is left to CMs.

 

[twilight mitsuk]

here is the police from disboards

When CMs were trained on this policy, we were shown example photos of "OK" and "not OK" - religious and cultural garb is ok. Disneybounding is ok. Dressing nice for Dapper Day (or on any other day) is ok. Dressing weird/'kawaii'/goth/whatever is ok. Military uniforms are ok. But if you resemble a specific character, person, or thing (or CM outfit - which was part of the problem) to the point where it potentially impacts Disney Show, it's not ok.

which is the policy they had for 45 years

If character costumes are a no no then they have some explaining to do because we saw a couple dozen adults in costumes over the last week and a half...

No, these were straight up cosplay worthy costumes.

I know a lot of people dress up for the marathons. It was just the Princess 1/2 marathon. Maybe part of that?

Well this is all rather bewildering isn't it. To resolve the issue I've decided I'm going to turn up naked, that way there can be no complaints about what I'm wearing or whether it constitutes a 'costume' or not.

Come on guys (well ladies preferably if I'm honest), who's with me?

When early September rolls around, I think the costume policy will be clarified. There will be rioting if costumes aren't allowed for MNSSHP.

That's what I thought at first, but like @draybook said, people are starting to plan their MNSSHP trips now and kinda need to know what to expect. There are going to be some very unhappy customers if they pay extra money to go to this ticketed event and get turned away at the gate because they are wearing a costume to a Halloween party.

I would imagine a statement will be made when tickets go on sale.

Whenever I hear about Disney bounding, I think of Mickey and Minnie tied up somewhere in Goofy's basement.

 

[draybook]

No, these were not runners that we saw. Believe me, we could tell the runners because they were still wearing their medals well into Thursday.....

These were fully grown adults wearing complete character costumes.

And I've seen young women wearing sports bras (and just sports bras on top) around Fantasyland.

Security is hardly 100% consistent on enforcement of policy.

Too add to that, how often are people not permitted in restaurants because their attire isn't "business casual"?

Disney rarely turns away a paying customer based on what they're wearing.

You'd have to be naked, and even then, certain body types would get a pass at Cali Grill.

Seriously though, I've seen flip-flops and board shorts there. At a signature restaurant.

 

[twilight mitsuk]

because shorts are permitted at signature restaurants except V&A
