Top 10 Best Outfits In Disney Films
by Almie Rose
“Really? I mean, seriously?”
10. Vanessa (Evil Human Ursula) and Prince Eric’s Wedding Outfits
Watch out, Wills & Kate! It’s all about Vanessa & Eric! Come to think of it, I see your wedding gown inspiration, Kate. The long brown hair let down? The long sleeved white dress? Admit it, kate. You just want to be…PART OF HIS WORLD. YOU WANT THINGAMAMABOBS? HE’S GOT TWENTY! Ariel had a fantastic pink dress, no doubt, but Vanessa’s wedding ensamble takes the wedding cake (I know, that one hurt me just typing it) and it’s mostly because of that gorgeous hair and sinister look. Say yes to the dress indeed!
“I know how much you like birdseed. Happy birthday!”
9. The hooded cape that Belle wears for about 8 seconds in “Beauty and the Beast.”
This hood is so fierce. It’s a maroon color with what appears to be a white fur trim. Belle wears it when she and the Beast are singing/narrating how there’s like, something there that wasn’t there before and then they have a snowball fight. This cape/coat thing is so Marc Jacobs you guys, seriously.
“Where are my keys? I lost my phone.”
8. Millificent’s…I don’t know what the hell she’s wearing, but it’s awesome.
That cape! That staff! That lipstick! Those horns! That dragon transformation! What kind of game are you playing, Millificent? You’re like the Lady Gaga of the Disney world. Ra ra ra ah ah indeed! That cape is just pure poetry; girl knows her body well.
“NO MORE WIRE HANGERS EVAAAAR!”
7. Cruella De Vil’s classic “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” meets “Whatever Happened To Baby Jane” ensemble.
OK no doubt this chick is straight up insane but she’s also a working woman and she just wants to wear nice clothing, and if wearing fur is truly a crime then why didn’t somebody lock Belle up in a castle? Oh I guess they did. Anyway Cruella steals the show in this floor length fur coat over a very Audrey LBD with elbow length red gloves. The matching handbag is a glorious touch. You’ll notice that the coat is lined inside with a fiery red, to match her lipstick! Perhaps her only falter in this look are the circular Lucy Ricardo green earrings. Those are a little, “Wha hoppen?” But everything else is dead-dog-a-riffic!
“Yeah…um…I just kinda keep everyone around on Limited Profile.”
6. Gaston’s “No one goes stromping around wearing boots like Gaston” outfit.
It’s no secret that I heart Gaston. He’s probably the reason why I am so messed up when it comes to men. But no one’s neck is as incredibly thick as Gaston’s! And you cannot deny the guy’s ability to pull off a ponytail and leggings. Sometimes Gaston pairs his brown leggings and red tunic with sturdy mustard colored gloves in what I only can assume is leather, because after all, Gaston uses antlers in all of his decorating. What a great guy, he just loves all animals!
“Liza with a Z!”
5. Tinkerbelle’s LGD (little green dress)
Look. Just because Tinkerbelle has no voice of her own and desperately follows around a boy who can’t commit doesn’t mean that she’s not a strong independent fairy-woman, ok? There is something so 90′s raver meets Marilyn Monroe about Tink’s shorter-than-short green dress matched with pom poms on her shoes and, of course, lots of glitter. And good choice to keep her hair up in a messy bun; I know when I’m busy helping one of my ten-year-old friends kill a pirate the last thing I want to do is worry about my hair!
“I just get the feeling that you’re not over your ex, Jafar.”
4. Princess Jasmine’s Red Outfit.
Disney princesses don’t wear red unless they’re EVIL. So when Jasmine has to work for Jafar (I think because he wished it of the Genie? This whole thing is really weird if you stop to think about it too hard) her sky blue outfit changes into a fiery red one. SYMBOLISM!
“Charlie sheen will never find me here.”
3. Princess Aurora’s Dirndl. That’s right, I said dirndl.
That’s what you call those great Jessica McClintock/Stevie Nicks type dresses, the ones that have the bustier-ish tie in the front, like you’re a gypsssssss-aaaay. Aurora rocks it hard in the forest; a daring move, but it pays off. Her prince fell in love with her at first sight. Note to Kate Middleton: you do not need to wear a see-through dress, girl! That blonde hair is to die for, and she almost did! Sewing is serious business, you guys! Anyway I seriously believe you could wear this dress today and you would look completely chic at a music festival.
“Ahahahahaa I am so high right now.”
2. Everything Mary Poppins Wears.
The weird flat hat with the flowers, the duster, the bow tie, all paried with bottomless carpetbag and talking bird umbrella? The red and white Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious number with the Kentucky Derby hat? The high collared button up shirt paried with the sleek skirt while she’s singing the kids to sleep? STYLE. ICON. Mary why you so mean? MEAN ABOUT STYLE??? God she’s gorgeous. Can we all just stop right now and appreciate this film? I’m way serious, stop everything that you’re doing, even though you’re already procrastinating at work, and appreciate Mary Poppins.
1. Ariel’s thrown-together first human outfit.
All she had was a pair of legs, a sail, and a rope and she made it work. This is as minimalist as it gets, and I swear to God, I could picture so many of my hip friends wearing this. It’s so Rick Owens. Wikipedia says, “It has a generally rugged and unattractive appearance…” and I think Wikipedia should sit down and peruse some high fashion magazines. Its flawed look is what makes it flawless. I looked at your stuff, Ariel, and it is indeed neat.

I never saw it that way. Genius.
Oh man, I am totally with you on that Gaston issue! I even learned to play his song on the recorder when I was in third grade. I know we were supposed to root for the other guy in that movie, but Gaston had biceps to spare!
That’s right! And every last inch of him’s covered in hair!
I agree with all of these, although I would petition to add Anita’s suit and hat ensemble from 101 Dalmatians (although that could be just because I, and adult, have a totally normal and age appropriate obsession with 101 Dalmatians.)
If you will excuse me, I am off to obsessively search for dirndls.
‘Those are a little, “Wha hoppen?”’
AHAHAHAHA. I’M DYING.
Seuproir thinking demonstrated above. Thanks!
Wow! Great tiihnkng! JK
Jesus Christ woman that was fantastic.
PERFECTION.
i’ve always loved jasmine’s red outfit, it’s one of my favorites! i agree with belle’s fierce hooded cape.
That was awesome! I never saw it that way, that was fantastic, and how the hell did you remember that Belle had that cape for 8 seconds? Did you watch all this movies again or you actually have such a great memory and remember all the details??? Anyways, whatever you did (actually prefer the first one) I love it! And I love this website!
I heart this a tons. Amazing!
Kewl you should come up with that. Exceellnt!
I LOVE Mary Poppins’ style.. so glad I’m not the only one.. I even did a style post on her..weird? sure. stylish? DUH. http://www.lovelyatyourside.com/2011/03/lovely-poppins.html
Little me always loved Aurora’s dress at the end of Sleeping Beauty, and I don’t care what anyone says, the blue was clearly superior to the pink. Take that Flora!
Hahaha “Charlie Sheen will never find me here”
I believe Millificent is just rocking out in a hand m down Wicked Stepmother’s cape from Snow White. Classics always work with just a little update.
What a joy to find such clear thinking. Thanks for psointg!
*Maleficent
Fab list though!! I always wanted Princess Aurora’s forest dress too. So great.
What a joy to find someone else who tihnks this way.
I feel so much happier now I understand all this. Thknas!
One word: Genius
Another word: thanks!!!
I’m overwhelmed by the love!
I worship this. Cheeky, and delighfully written. Although I think Cruella was more of a mix of Lil Edie than Audrey. Staunch, ladies!
I am ASHAMED and APPALLED that I missed the Little Edie comparison. FORGIVE ME, MOTHER DARLING.
Truth be told, belle’s red cape is a lesson to us all for the perfect outdoorsy-active-date with a new man outfit. But do we give props to Belle herself, or to the wardrobe?
Great question, Lucy. Great question.
I also think the outfit Snow White wore when she cleans was nice. When she was still a maiden.
It really bothers me, as a Disney fanatic, that you spelled Tink’s name wrong. There is no ‘e’ at the end of her name. OCD issue I’m sure. Anyway, great article!!! <3
AHHH I originally left the “e” off and then I added it back!! My bad!
The Little Mermaid is my favorite movie so my Disney rage started to forming just seeing Ursula/Vanessa even on this list, thank goodness Ariel is at the top.
You had me at Hello … Giggles. This list is so cute! I love the commentary.
i am sitting in starbucks cracking up OUT LOUD and everyone is looking at me and i don’t even care because if they were all reading this, they would be cracking up too! it’s so perfect. i love it all and i love everything about this site. GENIUS.
Thank you!! Careful!!!
This artical won me over I love disney and my awswome 5 year old neice evenn thought it rocked! PS I own my very own LGD
YES! This article is perfect! I always thought Cruella had a Breakfast at Tiffany’s obsession and I was madly in love with Jasmine’s red outfit, Ariel’s put together dress, Belle’s hooded cape and MOST OF ALL, Aurora’s dress! She is my all-time favorite Disney princess! And yes, Gaston’s outfit…HOT! Teehee!
Glad I’ve fianlly found something I agree with!
Now thats sbtule! Great to hear from you.
OMG how could you leave out Ariel’s sparkly purple dress from the ending?!? http://bit.ly/jbnWie I always wanted to wear that dress!
“You just want to be…PART OF HIS WORLD. YOU WANT THINGAMAMABOBS? HE’S GOT TWENTY!”
I laughed SO HARD when I read those sentences.
Great post. It’s really funny.

My devotion to Disney demands that I point out that her name is “Maleficent”. :c Not Millificent. She’s not a doggie!
