We went to the Disney Store yesterday. They had Belle, Cinderella, Ariel, and Aurora. I was hoping DD would like the Cinderella dress, but she preferred Belle. Now I just have to decide which Belle to get.

I saw Belle yesterday at my store in PA. They also had 1 Jasmine costume out.

We are going in the morning. I hope ours has Belle in. Looking on line both my DDs now want Ariel. While Ariel is lovely - we have ADRs for BBB followed by CRT, so I was hoping for something else. I hope in person they pick something more princess looking - like Cinderella, Belle or Snow White.

For those who have seen the new disney store costumes, do the belle and cinderella have velcro in the back?? It sounds like it from the discription on disney shopping I don't think i will be spending $40 on one if the have velcro all the way down the back! I really think that it makes them look cheap! We have a sleeping beauty from target like that and it really bothers me. DD only uses it fro dress up at the house. I didn't mind it on the $20 dress I got on clearence for $7 but I am NOT paying $40 for a dress that closes with velcro!!!

They have never had velcro in the back. I'll double check tomorrow at work. They are probably the best made costumes I've ever seen next to Disney World's costume. I sometimes love them better than Disney's.

I think we have finally chosen a theme for MNSSHP and DD will be going as Jasmine. We have BBB scheduled for that night as well. I'm really excited about this I just need to get the Jasmine and Aladdin costumes. I'll head to the Disney store today otherwise I might be emailing you for Mrs B's info!!!

We went this morning to the Disney Store to look at costumes. Both my DDs picked Cinderella. They do have velcro on them. It is a small square of it, at the top to close the back. That didn't take away from how beautiful they are - to me. Or to them.

It was kind of funny, at our store they have the Cinderella dress & shoes, but no tiara or wand. They did have the Belle wand & tiara - but no dress or shoes. The Ariel does look pretty, but I'm glad both of my DDs picked the Cinderella one so they can wear it on our BBB/CRT day.

That Alice dress is gorgeous. I may go back and pick it up, put it away for our vacation. WE are having breakfast at 1900 Park Fare before we leave - nice excuse. The dress is simply beautiful.

Thanks for the info. Just one small square would be ok. I was thinking of the ons that have 3 or 4 squares all the way down the back.

It doesn't have anything down the back. No buttons, zippers, snaps - or velcro. Just a small opening to allow the head to slip in, and a small square of velcro at the top of that. As I said, we bought two of the Cinderellas for my twins - and the dresses are really very pretty. They didn't have Belle at our store - but they did have some other dresses (Alice, Ariel, Snow White, Tinkerbell) all very pretty.

 

[disneymom1980]

Anyone heard from Ms. B recently? She emailed me over a week ago to tell me she was getting in the dresses I ordered and she would contact me the next day. I haven't heard from her since then. I don't want to continue to bug her if she is overwhelmed (or dealing with her mom's fall).
Should I look elsewhere for dresses for my girls since we have an upcoming fall trip?

I don't know if anyone else answered you on this, but I heard from Ms. B today. She told me that she had the dresses I needed and sent me a paypal invoice, which I paid. She hasn't emailed me yet to tell me she got the payment though.

Does anyone know where I can get a princess dress for my 9 year old who is a size 12/14?

It seems that 7/8 or 10/12 is the biggest size.

She wants to be Belle this December.

 

[TinkerCarol]

May I have Mrs. B's info. I did get it once, but what I got did not take me to any sight. Thanks!

Hi! I worked all day yesterday and forgot to post when I got home, but the other nice Disers saw the costume and helped. I was wrong, they did have the velcro closure right at the top, probably to make it easier for the little princesses to get in and out of. It is such a pretty dress, I think you'll love it!

Our store doesn't have the Belle dress, shoes or wands or the Ariel crowns either. Disney was having so many requests for the costumes, they decided to give a sneak peak. The funny thing is we don't have everything delivered yet. Hopefully the rest of the costumes will be in this week.

You're right about the Alice costume, that and Giselle are my favorites. They keep telling me that we won't be getting Mulan this year. She's always been a popular costume. Has anyone seen the new costume on Disney shopping yet? It is so sweet, I might have to have it(for my DD of course)

Jasmine is not on the website store, or in the mall. Do you know if that one is being offered this year?

Yes, I've seen the first box of Jasmine costumes come in the other day. It's very pretty. It looks exactly like her traditional outfit from the movie. We'll be putting out the rest of the costumes by the end of this week. I'll get the "official" date and let you know.

So does anyone know why the don't carry the deluxe dresses in an XXS?!? My daughter is 4, but needs the 2/3 size. Any hope that they will come in a smaller size before Halloween?

 

[AZMickeyfans]

We went to the Disney store yesterday to check out the new costumes. They didnt have them out but luckily I know used to work with the manager there and she brought out the Jasmine ones from the back and let us try them on. they are so cute but we have a definite issue with sizing already. My daughter is very tall and toothpick thin so we tried on the 10-12 at first because I was afraid the 7-8 pants would be too short.

The 10-12 pants were HUGE. I know they were supposed to be baggy but the crotch hung to her knees. I could take them in a tad and adjust the elastic on the waist band but I'm not that experienced in sewing so I'm afraid to take on too much with this. The top was also pretty large on her. It fit her length wise but had a lot of room around

So we try on the 7/8. The pants are ok, maybe not as puffy as they should be but they could work but the top is so small we can barely get it over her head. Once we got it on she looked good in it and she said it felt good. Its fits pretty snug though and what if she grows a little in the next 6 weeks.

So I dont know whether I buy the larger size and take the chance of butchering it with my alterations or whether we buy the smaller Jasmine costume and hope she isnt too uncomfortable walking around in the parks in the tighter fitting shirt.

I think I might have just talked myself into getting the larger one and trying to alter it. The girl has been known to have some crazy growth spurts and it would be very uncomfortable to be in a tight itchy outfit in the FL heat and humidity.

Hi all!

I have a couple of questions for you experts....

Is it true that there are similar dresses at Tinkerbell's Treasure's for less money or are they the same for the same price?

And, once I have bought the middle package for $54 plus a dress $65 plus accessories...should I just go for the Castle Package? I mean do you get a "discount" on the individual items if you buy the package? What makes this package worth the $180 price tag?

Thank you to all!!

Amy

I'm not sure actually, but the deluxe gowns are very heavy and maybe they feel too heavy for a toddler to wear. This year we'll have some separate toddler costumes. The Tink and pink Minnie with pantaloons are adorable.

 

[Tarheel girl 1975]

I'm not sure if this is off topic. My son has decided that he wants to be a prince or Mickey Mouse for Halloween. Does anyone know where I can get a costume like that? Does Disney make one?

That makes sense. **sigh** I might try the XS on her to see how it fits, but I doubt it will work. The XXS dresses are the perfect size for her. When do they go on sale? I can always grab one for next year. Thanks for your help!
