How to Dress like Disney's Maleficent (Kids and Teens)

Disguise Disney Maleficent Movie Christening Black Gown Girls Deluxe Costume

Disguise Disney Maleficent Movie
Gown Tween Deluxe Costume

If your daughter loved the classic Sleeping Beauty movie by Disney or the new Maleficent movie, then why not suggest dressing up as the daunting but beautiful Maleficent this Halloween? It's an iconic look that is sure to make her stand out from all the bog standard witches and sorceresses out there!

If that sounds like fun, you'll need to pick out one of the two cute Maleficent costumes featured on the right and up above. They are both very unique looking and despite being in slightly different styles both very evocative of both depictions of Maleficent. The one above comes with the dress, a detachable brooch and the matching horns, while the one on the right includes the dress and brooch.

Folkmanis Mini Raven Finger Puppet

There are plenty of accessories which you can use to finish off your Maleficent costume too. Her gorgeous staff, which you can see in the picture to the right, is available here. You can get matching Maleficent gloves here, and if you are going for Maleficent before she loses her wings, you can find some beautiful black feathery wings here. I also think it is a cute idea to have a plush crow toy or a funger puppet like the one on the left to represent Diablo, Maleficent's trusted servant and spy (and awesome fiery dragon in the re-imagining!). With that done, all you need is some scary makeup (the tutorial below works very well for both versions of Maleficent) and you'll be good to go!

So there you have it! That's my mini guide for kids and teens to dress up as Maleficent. I hope you found everything that you need and that she has a great time trick-or-treating!

5 Star Princess Yellow Beauty Costume

Storybook Belle Prestige

All of these costumes are based on the flowing, luscious yellow ball gown that Belle wears during the most famous scene from the movie, where she dances in the ball room with the now-gentlemanly Beast. It's an iconic look that everyone is sure to recognise, and there are plenty of costumes based on or inspired by it.

Many of these costumes are officially licensed, such as the adorable Princess Belle costume gown featured at the top of this page, a dainty little number adorned with delicate pink roses and a portrait of the Princess herself. The Storybook Belle Prestige costume on the right is also an official piece of Disney Merchandise, which takes an unusual choice of decorating the skirt of the dress with imagery from the movie. It's a very unique and beautiful look! This costume comes with both the dress as well as the matching headpiece.

There are many unofficial Belle costumes out there too, and they are no less gorgeous! One of my favorites is the 5 Star Yellow Beauty costume above, an elegant and feminine combination of soft organza and delicate red roses finished off with sparkling golden sequin. Any girl is bound to stand out in this lovely dress.

Princess Costume

To start us off, above are two similar but distinct official costumes by Disguise, sparkling number available in both Classic and Deluxe forms! Both are excellent replicas of Jasmine's Arabian Princess garb with cute little portraits of the Princess on the neckline and puffy sheer sleeves that make this costume look incredibly special.

Jasmine Classic Costume

If you like those two costumes, I also recommend the costume on the left, which is in a very similar style but with a more detailed pattern on the bodice and sports a very pretty set of fluffy sheer sleeves. This costume would look particularly good with a set of sparkling official Disney Jasmine shoes and an Aladdin tiara.

For a similar style of costume that is a little more suited to colder weather and younger Disney fans, I recommend taking a look at the long sleeved Arabian Princess costume on the right. I love how shiny the material is, and the top is stretchy to help younger kids put it on and take it off.

Jasmine's signature look is often available in colors other than teal, which is a fun way to mix things up a little. Below is a wonderful lilac and gold number with incredible embroidered patterns and a glittering, shiny material that looks very luxurious. I highly recommend it, and especially like the multi-tiered style of the pants, it's quite an eye-catching look that is sure to make your little princess standout from the rest of the crowd. Each set of this costume includes the top, harem pants and the matching headpiece.

Disney's Lilo and Stitch Costumes for Kids and Adults

Stitch Kigurumi (All Ages Costume)

Child's Lilo andStitch Costume

Lilo and Stitch is one of those Disney movies that is sadly very under-rated despite it's lovely visuals and emotionally involving plot, so for those of us who want to have a little hula-costume party based on the characters from the film, things can be a little tough! Have no fear though, as there are a couple of options for you guys.

It's much easier to find costumes based on the alien Stitch than it is Lilo. They are mostly Kigurumis like the one above, which are awesome as they can be used both as costumes and as a fun pair of pyjamas.

RJC Girls Classic Hibiscus Sarong Dress
(Available in Adult sizes here)

Meanwhile I've managed to find a cute Lilo hula costume for kids, featured on the right. Each set comes with the red tank top, a faux-grass hula skirt, the wrist leis and the leafy headpiece. While there is no official adult version of this costume, you can replicate the look with this red tank top, this adult's hula skirt, and this tropical fern headpiece. All of that will cost you less than $20, which is phenomenal value.

If you want the costume she wears throughout most of the movie, that would be a red hibiscus pattern dress. I've found a very pretty one in both adult and children's sizes, which you can see on the right.

The last thing you'll need is hair to match Lilo's, which is easy enough if you already have long black hair. If not, here is a wig which matches her style almost perfectly! Voila! That is everything you need for the perfect Lilo and Stitch costumes!
