Halloween is a holiday every child should be able to participate in with pride, confidence, and ease, and Disney is taking this to heart by expanding their inclusive adaptive line for the second year in a row.
In 2020, shopDisney.com released their first-ever line of adaptive costumes to their 2020 Halloween lineup.

According to ABC’s Good Morning America, the adaptive costumes are designed with stretch fabric that opens in back for easier dressing, longer lengths for wheelchair-friendly wear, and flap opening on the front center with self-stick fabric closure to accommodate tube access.
The wheelchair cover sets fit most wheelchairs, and come with supportive plastic piping pieces for added stability. They also come with long, self-stick fabric strips to help keep the pieces in place.
“We are excited to meet the needs of more of our guests and plan to continue to grow the collection,” says Stephanie Young, president of Consumer Products, Games and Publishing at The Walt Disney Company.
