Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique FAQ PART II - w/ Photos

[SalandJeff]

Does anyone happen to know what the size selection is like at BBB in MK? Our oldest desperately wants the Rapunzel dress; we drove 8 hours to our nearest Disney Store at MOA and they were closed for relocation. Now we're thinking it might be easiest to buy it at WDW, but she needs a size 10. I would hate to get there and find out they don't have it in her size. Also, are the dresses they have at BBB the exact same ones they have online at the Disney Store?

We were at BBB on 11/6. The selection of dresses I saw looked pretty limited. Our appt was at 4:05 and it was busy, so maybe they have more early in the morning. We brought our own dress, so I didn't ask if they had more. If your dd really wants Rapunzel, I would buy it from Disney Store online and bring it with you.

Thanks for answering. Darn! We're in Canada, so they charge about an extra $20 on top of regular shipping charges. This is going to be one expensive dress.

I was there on 10/29 in the afternoon and the small display seemed to be very limited in the items available.

You know, I think that really sucks. If you are paying $200 they should have a better selection. Since it will be our second day in MK, I think we will check the first day and maybe buy it in DTD. I don't want to spend 200 dollars for a dress that doesn't fit either. Our appointment is at 8:05 so may be it is better then.

I am disappointed.

I think what everyone is talking about is a little confusing....Everyone is talking about their experiences with the limited selection, but none of them seemed to have purchased a dress at the boutique.

There is only one of each style on display, so that the princesses can look and choose what they want. If you've been to the boutique before, you can see that there isn't room to keep every style in every size at the front.

All of the dresses in size xxs (2-4) to an XL (14) are kept in the back so that they can be presented in the dressing rooms. No worries. They DO occasionally run out of different sizes but it's rare.

Hope this helps.

There was a whole thread here a while back from a mom complaining that they didn't have her Cindy's slippers available in her daughter's size the day she was there. The FGIT put it all in the dressing room for the reveal, then had to take the girl's shoes away because they were the wrong size.

I'm just saying that does happen. If a specific item is important to you, then I'd suggest pinning it down before you go.

Just to give a little information about dresses at the boutique...

The following are available:

Cinderella
Sleeping Beauty
Jasmine
Ariel (dress)
Ariel (fins)
Belle
Tinkerbell
Rapunzel
Snow White
Tiana

They are available in sizes xxs (2-4) to XL (14). (except Jasmine which starts at size xs)
Sometimes, but rarely so certain sizes run out but as I said, it's rare. They are almost always available.

Most problems come in the shoe department.
The shoes available are:

Cinderella glass slippers
Sleeping beauty
Jasmine slippers
generic glitter princess shoes

The sizes are 5/6 7/8 9/10 11/12 2/3
2/3 are almost never available. Other sizes run out often.
Most complaints are that one size is too small and the next size is too big.

My recommendation is that if you are planning to buy a dress at the park, you buy the dress at the boutique because it's lovely to see the princesses face when they say the magic words and the curtain is pulled and they are the exact same prices as they are in the rest of the parks.

My other recommendation is that you take your princess to target, walmart, etc and pick out some comfortable princess like shoes (there are so many pretty choices!) and bring them with you. Then ask that the shoes be taken off your package, or substitute with the purse and glove set which is soooo cute, but doesn't come with the package.

If anyone has any questions that I may be able to help with, please feel free to send me a message anytime.

LOL, I actually JUST posted about that too....the shoes tend to be the biggest headache for all involved.

JaneyGrrl-- Thank you. Is this at both BBB? We are going to the one at the castle. I really want to do the whole reveal and everything there so I hope you are right.

Yes, the reveal happens at the castle as well <3 You can even bring your own dress and stuff and sneak it in without your princess seeing. This is a lot easier if you send someone in your party earlier and just have them keep it there with her name and appt time on it <3



BTW, for the selection issues, if there is a limited selection of something (which happens a lot this time of year) the Boutiques are supposed to be supplied before any other area on property.

Yes, absolutely at the castle!

I just read the list of costumes available at the boutique. One of my daughters wants to be Alice and the other wants to be one of the tinkerbell fairies. Are those costumes available somewhere in the park?

Yes. I think you can find Tink at most places, while Alice is a bit harder to find. I know it has been at the store in the UK at Epcot and also it is often at World of Disney at Downtown Disney. You can also look online and order a head of time as well and bring it along. I did that with our Alice dress one year. Word of caution, the Alice dress tends to run small in the past and the head hole was a bit tight. I had wished I had gotten the next size bigger. It is a great dress though and many CM's make comments about it because it's not one that a lot of girls wear. My DD wore it to the Wonderland tea party and then to Animal Kingdom and she was fawned over all day long.

And welcome to Dis!!!!

We took DD to BBB last week. Her appointment was at 9:05, so first thing in the morning. We got right in with no wait. We brought our own Ariel dress and she chose the hairstyle with the long extensions. Here are a couple of my pics, I don't have the PP pics to upload yet but I can post one or two when I get the CD.

Here is DD before:

Here she is after:

And she absolutely LOVED being a princess for a day. We even had dinner at Akershus that night.

 

[jenseib]
