Disney Costumes That Will Make Your Dreams Come True [Costume Guide]

Choosing costumes for Halloween can sometimes be a little tricky. Do you want to be pretty or cool? What about a recognizable character costume or something with a touch of nostalgia? Well, perhaps Disney costumes are just right for you! From the animated classics to Pixar's famed 3D animation, there are so many Disney movies that there's something for everyone. It doesn't matter if you're looking for costumes for Halloween, outfits for conventions, or even a dress-up costume for your child to use at home. You'll have so much fun with these Disney costumes that you might just want to wear them again and again!

Hocus Pocus Costumes

Come little children, I'll take thee away into a land of enchantment. These spell-binding words are sung by the Sanderson Sisters in Disney's classic Halloween movie, Hocus Pocus. Now, wearing a Hocus Pocus costume may not require you to sing, but we're not going to stop you if that's your thing! You can find Winifred costumes, Sara costumes, and even Mary costumes for the three witch sisters. (Don't forget to add a black cat for Thackery Binx!) If you're feeling brave, you could even attempt a Billy Butcherson costume with the right makeup. You're sure to delight Hocus Pocus fans with this Disney group costume idea!

Descendants Costumes

Kids love Disney, so you may be trying to think of the best Disney costumes for girls if your child is in the mood for a group costume. You may be tempted to try a group of Disney princesses, but your tweens and teens may be interested in wearing Descendants costumes. While they may be related to the princesses you know and love, these girls get away from the ballgowns and tiaras with their own signature looks. As the girls would say, it's time to put our history behind us and celebrate our differences.

Toy Story Costumes

Pixar's Toy Story movies are often family favorites, so anyone looking for the perfect Disney costume for families doesn't have to search too far! With great characters like Buzz Lightyear, Jessie, Woody, and Bo Peep, there are plenty of Toy Story costumes to accommodate family units of nearly any size. You can even find some adaptive costumes and wheelchair covers for family members with disabilities. After all, everyone loves to get candy and dress up for Halloween!

Beauty and the Beast Costumes

Whether you're a fan of the original French fairytale or you're more familiar with Disney's Beauty and the Beast, we have Beauty and the Beast costumes perfect for Halloween, dress-up, and stage plays! Girls will love twirling in this Disney princess ball gown well after Halloween night, and they might be able to invite a friend as a teacup for pretend tea parties. Even adults will love this classic Disney couples' Halloween costume idea to make their day more magical.

Monsters Inc. Costumes

For many people, Halloween is an affair for scary costumes and horror movies. Your kids may not be fully on board with scary clowns and monsters, but Disney's Monsters, Inc. is full of friendly monsters! The two main characters, Mike and Sulley, are a great Disney duo costume, but there are a few other Monsters, Inc. costumes to try if you need more. How cute would it be if you could dress your toddler up as Boo? What about getting your dog in on the fun as Mike? And of course, if you're always cold on Halloween, a Sulley costume is sure to keep you warm with a furry jumpsuit.

Frozen Costumes

If your family has a case of 'Frozen Fever,' perhaps it's time to don family Frozen costumes for Halloween! Kids love characters like Elsa, Olaf, and Anna, but it's even better when mom and dad dress up too. You can also find an ice Nokk wheelchair cover fit for everyone's favorite Disney princess! With so many fun Frozen character costumes to choose from, you're going to be the envy of everyone in the neighborhood.

Moana Costumes

What can we say except "You're welcome!" for this great Disney costume idea? The cast of characters in Moana is a little bit smaller than some other Disney movies, but it's perfect for people that want to do their own thing for Halloween, or perhaps as a duo. While Moana enlists the help of Maui on her adventures, she's still a great character on her own! You can also find a few animal costumes of her sidekicks Pua and Hei Hei to round out your Moana costume group.

Mulan Costumes

Mulan is one of the more recent Disney films to get a live-action adaptation, and we can't help but love both movies. Mulan has several different outfits, so we have a few costume options to match her various looks. Wear her red outfit from the live-action movie, or don her pink or blue ensembles from the original animated movie. If you can find someone willing to wear a red dragon costume, they could be your Mushu!

Winnie the Pooh Costumes

Anyone that wants to be comfortable on Halloween should consider a Winnie the Pooh costume. Not only are these loose-fitting onesies and jumpsuits easily recognizable, but it's easy to move around in them, and you can wear clothing underneath if you need more layers to stay warm. You can also find Kigurumi pajama costume styles for adults and kids, so you feel extra-snuggly. (Just make sure not to take a nap at work!)

Peter Pan Costumes

Whether you're a fan of the Disney movie or one of the many adaptations for the stage, there are plenty of Peter Pan costumes to accommodate families of any size! Kids that don't want to grow up may want to dress up as Peter Pan or Tinkerbell, while parents can help fill in other roles such as Captain Hook and Wendy, or even some of the other pirates. You can also branch out from there and wear an all-black costume for Peter's shadow, or perhaps an alligator or crocodile costume for the crock that swallowed a clock. (Just make sure not to eat any more timepieces!)

Alice in Wonderland Costumes

Similar to Peter Pan, Alice in Wonderland has had multiple adaptations. (And even several interpretations by Disney!) Whether you prefer one of the works by Disney or the classic storybook version, we have Wonderland character costumes perfect for everyone. There are so many characters that you can easily do a duo costume or accommodate a group of 6 or more. Also, we have Alice in Wonderland costumes for adults to infants so that the entire family can take part in the costume fun.

Lion King Costumes

If you ask anyone for their top 5 Disney films, The Lion King will likely be in it. The movie has great animation, relatable characters, and a wonderful soundtrack, so it's not hard to see why! That being said, kids also love animals a lot, so it's also a good movie for kids' Disney Halloween costume ideas. You can easily find Lion King costumes and masks of the main characters, but there are other animal costumes that can help you add to your Lion King cast.

Mary Poppins Costumes

Anyone looking for a Disney Halloween costume that's practically perfect in every way should look no further than these Mary Poppins costumes. Comfortable, iconic, and even a touch vintage, everyone needs a little Mary Poppins in their life. She knows exactly how to handle every situation with a dash of imagination and fun! Also, how cute would a Burt and Mary couples' costume be?

Aladdin Costumes

The world of Aladdin is full of adventure and magic, so it's not hard to see why someone would be interested in wearing Aladdin costumes for Halloween. You have Aladdin, the charming street rat; Jasmine, the princess with her pet tiger; a magical genie capable of fulfilling your every wish; and an evil sorcerer with the perfect winged eyeliner. (We'll have to ask Jafar how he does it!)

Incredibles Costumes

No other Disney movie screams "family Halloween costume idea" quite as loudly as The Incredibles! There are Incredibles costumes for babies to adults, so everyone from Jack-Jack to Mr. and Mrs. Incredible will have something to wear. You can even find Disney costumes for friends to include characters like Frozone and Edna Mode. (Frankly, they have some of the best lines in the Incredibles movies, so we won't blame you if you pick one of them for yourself!)

Snow White Costumes

Sometimes, it's just hard to pass up on a classic. Like many of the iconic Disney villains, the evil queen has killer makeup looks for ladies, while Snow White's classic dress is immediately recognizable. Women's costumes for two, anyone? You'll certainly be the ultimate power couple at any Halloween party! You can also add any of the 7 dwarfs if you want to bump the numbers of your Snow White group costume.

Emperor's New Groove Costumes

This funky fresh Disney movie certainly turned some heads with a new twist on classic Disney movie formula, and you will too with these Emperor's New Groove costumes! Feel fabulously evil as Yzma or obnoxiously carefree as Kuzco. Who are we kidding—everyone wants to have a Yzma and Kronk couples' costume so you can yell, "Pull the lever, Kronk!" at every opportunity!

Little Mermaid Costumes

There's something enchanting about mermaids, unicorns, and other fairy tale creatures that make them incredibly popular costumes for Halloween. Why not have the best of both worlds and wear a princess Ariel costume from The Little Mermaid? You can also expand this idea into a group costume by adding characters like Ursula and Prince Eric, and you could even add a lobster costume if you need a Sebastian. Don't forget to take pictures of your Little Mermaid costumes that will make everyone wish they were part of your world!

Sleeping Beauty Costumes

Speaking of classic fairytales, Disney's Sleeping Beauty has it all—evil witches, charming princes, enchantments, and even dragons! Princess Aurora's perfectly pink dress will delight any princess hopefuls. However, Maleficent is an amazing sorceress in her own right, even if she's a little bit evil. Turn this Disney costume idea into a costume for two, or perhaps create a sinister Disney villain group costume by mixing and matching with other movies. No matter what Sleeping Beauty costumes you choose, you get to make your own happy ending!

Tangled Costumes

One of the newer princesses on the Disney roster, Tangled was a fresh twist on a classic fairy tale. If you want to dress like Disney's Rapunzel, you're going to need a purple dress. (A chameleon companion wouldn't hurt, either!) There are also plenty of blond wigs to give you her famous gold locks, too. Just make sure to leave your frying pan at home, even if it feels like a good addition to your Tangled costume. Where you're going, a bucket for Halloween candy is a better choice!

Cinderella Costumes

The classic tale of Cinderella is one of those rags-to-riches stories that make us wish so much to believe in happy endings. With the help of her fairy godmother, some mice, and that classic Disney magic, Cinderella gets the chance of a lifetime! Turn this Disney costume idea into a couples costume with your Prince Charming, or take your little princess out trick-or-treating as her fairy godmother. This Cinderella Halloween costume idea is a dream come true!

Coco Costumes

Few Disney movies drive home the point about the importance of family like Coco. If you have a small family unit and a love for Disney's Coco, you'll love these Coco costumes. (Guitar skills not required, but definitely encouraged!) These Disney skeleton costumes hit all the right chords between spooky and sweet, whether you want to bring Mama Imelda and Hector to life or if your tykes want to sing out a song in Miguel's skeletal disguise! 

Brave Costumes

Princess Merida is that Disney princess that many of us wish we could be. She's smart, outspoken, and beautiful... and she is really good with a bow and arrow and has a horse as a best buddy, too! (We're calling dibs on the horse right now!) While we wish we had her horse or her beautiful head of fiery curls, these Brave costumes can help you feel like Merida for a day. Whether you're hoping to be a princess for Halloween or your child wants to play dress-up, these cute costumes are sure to please!

101 Dalmatians Costumes

If you had to pick the most fashionable Disney villain, most would go for Cruella. Her black and white color scheme with a splash of red hits all the right notes! While this 101 Dalmatians costume idea is great for flying solo, why not add a few Dalmatians to turn it into a group Halloween costume? Everyone will wish they felt this fabulous on Halloween!

Classic Disney Costumes

Oh boy! There's nothing quite like a classic Disney character costume to make you feel like you brought a piece of the magic kingdom home with you. You can find plenty of Mickey and Minnie costumes, as well as other characters such as Pluto, Goofy, and Donald. Whether you want to treat this Disney costume idea as a costume for two or a whole group, these classic characters are sure to get some attention on Halloween!

Vampirina Costumes

Kids may shy away from wearing monster costumes on Halloween, but friendly monsters like Vampirina may be an option for you! After all, is there anything cooler than a vampire girl in a rock band? While there are several character costumes to choose from, any aspiring Ghoul Girl will also want to have Vampirina's Spookylele on hand.
