Disney’s second Tokyo-area theme park is all about the aesthetics, as this collection of more than 20 outfits shows.
I often get asked, by people coming to Japan on vacation, whether they should visit Tokyo Disneyland or Disney Sea, and the answer really depends on what you want out of an amusement park. Disneyland has the bigger share of famous rides, but Disney Sea puts extra effort into visual theming, making it the better choice for strolling and snapping pictures.
That commitment to aesthetics applies to the staff’s uniforms as well. On a recent trip to Disney Sea, Japanese Twitter user @koikoisararira, who hadn’t been to the park for several years, was amazed by just how many different cute and stylish outfits there are for the female cast, as Disney likes to call its front-line park employees. Utilizing a potent mix of mnemonic and artistic skill, @koikoisararira sketched more than 20 examples, and today we present the field guide to Disney Sea uniforms.
先月、何年かぶりに友人とディズニーシーへ行ったのだけど、キャストさんの衣装がよく見ると凝っていて可愛いな!という話になって、せっかくなので(回れた範囲で)メモした衣装をまとめてみました。 pic.twitter.com/xjfsHio5ut

▼ From left to right: Greeters at main entrance/exit, guest control (customer relations) employees, and cleaning staff
▼ 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea ride staff, with gallant poses and steam punk accents
▼ The gothic-style uniforms for the Tower of Terror and Haunted Mansion (the latter with a special Halloween celebration cape), whom @koikoisararira describes as looking like sisters.
▼ The Toy Story Mania attendants’ outfits, on the other hand, have less somber colors.
▼ Fortress Exploration is meant to evoke the Italian Renaissance, and so its staff uniforms have an Olde World flair to them.
▼ Moving from Olde World to Old West, ponchos and pouches for Westernland
▼ Aquatic tones for Mermaid Lagoon, site of the park’s Little Mermaid stage show (even staff wearing the black jackets have the seashell-decorated shirts on underneath)
▼ Appropriately Arabian attire for Sinbad’s Storybook Voyage and the Aladdin-related Magic Lamp Theater
▼ And finishing things off, even the souvenir and concession staff is looking sharp, with a non-specific shop clerk and juice vendor…
▼ …a balloon vendor, and, last, another shop clerk.
Along with the Haunted Mansion uniform, the Mermaid Lagoon cast also had special Halloween additions when @koikoisararira was at the park. With Christmas coming up soon, there are sure to be plenty of new seasonal touches to the Disney Sea uniforms, so hopefully @koikoisararira finds time to visit again during the holidays.
