What I find problematic is the shockingly common practice of not maintaining costume integrity when workers migrate, often on short notice, over to a different location. We used to get sent back to Costuming for a quick change if this was to happen! Now, perhaps in the spirit of not wasting time and therefore money workers are often thrown directly into the transplant location without new costumes.
This from www.mouseplanet.com 's latest article from Kevin Yee.
I can't recall any costume issues from WDW, but apparently there are some at DL, as we have read over the past year and half from MP with the two relaxing of the old guidelines:
1-taking costumes home, which Yee argues dilutes the costume 'magic' by peeps seeing costumes all around town, and contributes to costume theft by the employees
2-mixing of costumes in the park...in other words seeing costumes with themes that don't match up in the same area.
How do you feel? He asks in the article the hypo whether costumes mean much to the show...and I for one think that is something unique to WDW. It reminds me of the living history tours I've been on around the country. I know it is expensive blah blah blah but my ticket is expensive also. As an ardent car three'er, I want Disney to keep the dilution of the costume magic out of WDW! Keep costuming unique to -- each attraction, each area, and each park.
