Authentic Belle Dress

[Muskegon78]

Does anyone have advice on where to find a Disney Parks Authentic Belle dress for my soon to be 4 year old (probably size xs)? Disneystore.com only has a large and I didn't know if there is another place online to look.

I usually get mine on ebay. I make sure they are DisneyStore or Disney parks (have them take a picture of the tag for you). LOTS cheaper.

Warning though - I always find the dresses run on the smaller size. I just got my 4 yr old size small.

Ok thanks, btw, I'm on the Magic the week after you. We will be at Downtown Disney the night before our cruise...do you know if there are stores there that would have that dress?

World of Disney store would have it most likely as they have a "princess" room. YOu would do better to buy on Ebay though as one from world will run you 45.00+ for just dress not incuding shoes or other goodies. If you want a belle dress in general disney stores in malls have some cute ones also if you have a store near you.

I bought one from an Ebay seller a few months ago. It was under $30 and came with the Disney park authentic tags. She didn't have it in stock, but I sent her a message and she was able to get one a week or so later. The seller name was wantsnneeds4u if you want to look her up. She was great to work with.

I had to reply when I saw your screen name - I'm from Muskegon too!

Great, thanks I will look her up. I grew up in Muskegon but live in Grand Haven now. Thanks again for the info

You stayed in the castle suite?

Yes we did! My DH happened to be sitting in the right elephant on Dumbo with our DS, at just the right time, and we won a night in the Castle Suite during the Year of a Million Dreams promotion. It was an amazing, once-in-a-lifetime type experience. I'll treasure those memories forever!

I posted pictures and the details here on the DIS shortly after we got home. The thread is here but the pics are apparantly too old to show up:

How big is your 4 year old? My daughter is about 40" and 33 pounds. The size chart makes a small sound huge for her

I'm not the person who said the dresses run small, but I also have a 4 year old and thought I'd chime in. I would definitely go with the XS for your daughter.

I personally do not find that the dresses run small at all. My 4 year old is about 39 inches and 37lbs, so short and solid, and she wears the XS Belle dress comfortably...and daily. LOL She wears sz. 4 pants normally, but can fit into some 5's if they are not too long, and sz. 5 shirts.

My older DD(7.5) has a sz. S dress (Cinderella) and its quite big on my 4 year old. She *can* wear it, but I wouldn't have her wear it around the parks or whatever because its too large for her when it all comes down to it. The small fits my 7 year old perfectly. For comparison, she is 48 inches and 46lbs. She wears a sz. 6 pants and 7/8 shirt.

Thanks for all of your help. I just got the XS I needed from her.
