One of the most fun – and most time consuming – parts of planning your Disney World Vacation is figuring out your Disney outfits. It is very common for Disney park visitors to be dressed to fit the park they are in.
It can be a bit harder to figure out what to wear to EPCOT. Hollywood Studios is Star Wars and Toy Story, Animal Kingdom is animals of course, and the Magic Kingdom is full of whimsy and classic Disney.
But there’s still fun things to wear to EPCOT! From amazing food and drinks to all of the different countries to special events like the Flower and Garden Festival, there are tons of great options for EPCOT outfits.
If you’re heading to EPCOT during your Disney trip you need to look the part! We have rounded up some of our favorite EPCOT gear to help you figure out what to wear in this park.
Disney Dress Code
Before we get to the outfits, we have to mention the Disney World dress code for all of the Disney theme parks. (Yes, Disney has a dress code!)
Anyone older than the age of 14 is not allowed to wear any costumes or costume masks (with the exception of specific Halloween and Christmas events as well as some outfits inspired by Star Wars).
Themed t-shirts, like the ones we have below, are great options to follow the dress code. You can’t wear anything that drags on the ground, costume masks or anything that would be inappropriate for a family environment.
Quick Tips on What to Wear
Dress for the Weather
One of the most important things to remember is to wear proper attire for the Florida weather! Dressing appropriately will help you have a great time on your trip rather then being miserable because you’re too hot or cold.
During the winter months it can be cooler so bringing long-sleeved shirts, a light jacket or even long pants can be a good idea. Hot days are common at Disney so wicking shorts are a great option and lightweight t-shirts or tank tops will keep you cooler.
Of course you could always swing back to your Disney resort to change if you want but if you’re on a time crunch and trying to fit lots of things into one day, a good option is to just bring layers in your park bag.
Don’t Forget Rain Gear
And don’t forget to add a rain poncho to your packing list whenever you go! Even if it’s not hurricane season, you will likely see some rain whether it’s a little sprinkle or a torrential downpour.
Rain is common at all times in Florida and you don’t want to get stuck in the rain with no protection. Even if there’s no rain, you could always use a rain poncho on water rides so your clothes don’t get soaked!
Wear Good Shoes
Probably the most important thing when it comes to Disney outfits is good, comfortable shoes! Your best option is always tennis shoes over things like flip flops since you’ll likely be walking multiple miles in one day.
Ok, on to the outfit ideas! Here’s some of our favorite EPCOT inspired looks for your next Disney vacation!

This pair of EPCOT Disney ears that are perfect for wearing in the World Showcase. The ears themselves have the EPCOT ball print on them, and the bow has the colors of the German flag.
2. Epcot Flower and Garden Festival Outfits
If you’re heading to EPCOT during the International Flower and Garden Festival adding a little bit of flower fun is a great idea! This is our favorite festival at Epcot and we try to hit it up every couple years.
Shop the Looks
Mickey Floral Fill Tank Top + Denim Shorts +
Disney Princesses Types of Flowers + High Waisted Athletic Shorts + Flower Ears + Adidas
70’s style Cottage Core T-Shirt + Spaceship Earth Flower Shirt + Minnie Mouse Spring Flowers + Hidden Mickey Flower Ears
These shirts are both so unique and perfect to celebrate the flowers at Disney and make such cute outfits.
For more of a classic Disney shirt you can choose the Mickey silhouette that is filled in with beautiful flowers. A tank top is a good idea when you’re at Disney during the summer months when it is hot out!
For something a bit more unique, we love the shirt where each princess is “assigned” a flower that fits her story. Jen has both the princess flower shirt and the “Spaceship Earth” that is designed out of flowers. She loves both of them!
Mickey ears with a floral touch are a perfect finish to your Flower and Garden outfit. We own the silk flower ears and they look stunning! These ears were so light and didn’t bother my head at all! I was actually shocked at how beautiful they were in person.
In my personal experience, these Adidas shoes were by far one of the best shoes to wear to Disney. They were incredibly comfortable and my feet weren’t sore at all even when walking 7+ miles in a day!
3. Frozen Outfits for Women
Frozen fits in EPCOT because you can meet Elsa and Anna and ride the Frozen boat attraction in Norway!
Meet Me In Arendelle + Frozen Princesses Shirt + Frozen Cast T-Shirt + Elsa Oversized Tee + Arendelle National Park Shirt + Frozen Characters Silhouette
High Waisted Athletic Shorts + Adidas + Denim Shorts + Frozen Princesses Ears
EPCOT is where you can visit Elsa and Anna, so this is the perfect location to wear your favorite Frozen outfits featuring your favorite character! Jen and Katie are particularly fond of these outfits – they are perfect for sisters (or friends!) to wear.
To start with, the Mickey ear headbands come in a set of two and are extremely affordable. One is themed for Anna and one is themed for Elsa.
The t-shirt options we chose can fit any personality. If you like a bit more abstract and beautiful designs, choose the black shirt design on the left and pair it with a pair of stretchy denim shorts. This shirt comes in 10 color options.
For a more classic look, choose the design with the entire Frozen cast and pair it with a colored pair of athletic shorts. You can’t go wrong with either outfit!
4. Frozen Outfits for Men
Sometimes it is hard to get men in the “Disney outfit” spirit, but we think men will be ok wearing these shirts to EPCOT!
Shop these looks:
Official Ice Master of Arendelle + Arendelle Brewing Company + Kristoff & Sven’s Ice Harvesting and Delivery + Wandering Oakens Trading Post + Chillin With My Snowmies + Arendelle Ice Hockey
Mens Shorts + Mens Shorts With Zipper + On Cloud Shoes
We love the shirts are a nod to Kristof’s ice business in Arendelle. We also love the creativity of what might exist in Arendelle – like a hockey team and a brewery! We love the creativity of these shirts and the bit of vintage feel to them. It would be easy to wear these shirts outside of the Disney parks as they don’t scream “Disney.”
6. World Showcase Outfits (for men and women)
The World Showcase features 11 countries in one half of EPCOT. You can easily spend a whole day exploring these pavilions! Here are shirts that both men and women can wear if the World Showcase is your favorite part of the park.
Shop these looks:
World Tour Shirt + Vintage Stamp Shirt + World Traveler Shirt +Mickey World Traveler + Mickey With Flags + Three Caballero’s + Maelstrom Viking Shirt
World Showcase Ears + Mens Shorts + Sketchers + Aviator Sunglasses + Nikes
You can definitely choose a shirt that represents the entire area – like the “world traveler” style t-shirts. But don’t forget – if you have a favorite country, this is a great place to let people know! We love the viking shirt, and the Three Caballero’s in Mexico is a favorite hidden gem.
Hopefully these outfits have given you some inspiration! Also remember that when you go will have an impact on what you wear.
