Did you know that before they’re allowed to play Disney Princesses, Disney World employees usually put on Mickey or Minnie Mouse Costumes? Endorsing the role of Minnie, Mickey, or any of the other masked Disney characters (such as Winnie the Pooh or Stitch) is an important step for Disney Princess wannabes. Mascot costumes are so magical, just like these Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse costumes! Just because they're not Disney princess doesn't mean they're not important.

The best thing about Minnie Mouse costumes is that you can get creative with them! Minnie’s polka-dotted dress and oversize bow are recognizable anywhere, so you can create your own Minnie Mouse costume and even mash it up with character from other franchises. Here’s a Star Wars/Minnie Mouse mash-up for you: this cosplayer from the 2018 Silicon Valley Comic Con has borrowed Kylo Ren’s lightsaber and is knighting him. Does that mean she’s turned evil, or that she’s convinced Kylo Ren to see the light? It’s hard to tell, but the contrast in their costumes sure makes for a striking photo!
