Walt Disney World has begun rolling out new costumes for cast members at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, replacing the hotel’s previous floral-patterned tops and skirt-or-pants choices with outfits that include khaki pants only.
WDWNT reported that the rollout started October 25. The new wardrobe includes colorful short-sleeve button-up shirts, with fabric varying by work area such as merchandise, Front Desk and Concierge, paired with the same khaki pants.
The change removes a skirt choice that had been available to cast members at the Deluxe resort hotel. Disney’s Disney Look guidelines were updated in 2021 to remove gender-specific language and allow cast members of any gender to wear the costume combinations available at their work location.

Not every Polynesian Village Resort role had switched as of October 26, according to WDWNT. Cast members at Capt. Cook’s were still wearing Moana-inspired costumes introduced in 2021, while employees told the outlet that the updated costumes would reach all workers at the resort in the coming weeks.
