Like other theme parks, Disney World Resorts operates a strict dress code or attire policy to keep guests safe and comfortable. Any form of clothing that violates these principles could get you banned from the park! They may be trendy, but can I wear ripped jeans to Disney? Let’s find out.
Can you wear ripped jeans to Disney Parks?
Disney’s attire policy does not mention ripped jeans or excessively torn clothing specifically. However, they could potentially violate two other rules:
- Clothing that drags along the ground
- Clothing that they consider inappropriate (i.e., too revealing)
Therefore, you can probably wear ripped jeans at Disney. However, the rip should be small and not in the crotch or over the buttocks. Furthermore, it should not cause any denim material to drag along the ground as it could be a trip hazard or get caught in a ride.
Disney dress codes (Guest Courtesy and Attire Policies) recommend that guests wear climate-appropriate clothing. Therefore, wear a t-shirt and shorts if it’s going to be a hot day, and a sweater, coat, and pants if it is a cold day.
Disney’s rules leave quite a lot of gray areas, so whether stewards admit you to the park is their discretion. For example, it is highly unlikely they will bar you from the park if you are wearing regular ripped jeans with a small rip at the knee or thigh. However, if your pants look like they’ve been through a shredder or have a square cut-out at the buttocks, then yes, they will probably deny you access.
What can’t you wear to Walt Disney World Resorts?
The jury is still out on whether you can wear ripped jeans to Disneyland or Disney World. However, there are some items you can’t wear under any circ*mstances.
Costumes
Disney does not allow guests to wear costumes unless they are under 14. The exception is Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party, where teens and adults can dress up as long as they follow the park’s other attire rules. For safety reasons, guests cannot wear masks or clothes that drag along the ground.
Objectionable Material
You should not wear clothing displaying objectionable material. This is because Disney officials want to keep their parks family-friendly places.
Take a look at your clothing. If there is anything that could offend, leave it at home.
Excessive Skin
Disney parks let you show some skin, but not too much skin, at its parks. You must wear shoes and shirts at all times. You should avoid clothes with excessive ripping as these may violate parks’ modesty rules.
Is there a dress code for a Disney Resort restaurant?
The Disney Resort restaurant dress code varies by restaurant.
Most restaurants in the theme parks allow guests to wear anything that meet’s the park’s dress code requirements.
For fine or signature dining experiences, the dress code can be a bit more strict. You should wear dress pants, jeans, dress shorts, t-shirts, long-sleeved shirts with a collar, blouses, sweaters, or dresses. In addition, you shouldn’t wear hats, swim cover-ups, bathing suit, tank tops, or any clothing with excessive rips and tears. Men are not required to wear dinner jackets, except at Victoria & Albert’s.
To summarize, dress sensibly, use common sense, and you should have no trouble with Disney’s dress code or officials at Disney resorts. Make your clothing simple and basic.
