| Screenshots of Aladdin's street rat clothing |
Aladdin's most recognisable costume is his city outfit, the raggedy street rat/thief costume. While he does have a fancy Prince Ali costume, you're not going to be able to put that together easily (it's basically just a version of the Sultan costume, and can be bought online).
The Costume Aladdin's most iconic and easily recognisable costume is quite simple.
| This Aladdin doll is a pretty good costume reference! |
- He wears whitish or yellowish salwar (or chalwar) pants (you can also look for harem or afghan pants). There is supposed to be large square yellow patch (a.k.a a 'hobo patch') on his pants, just below the right knee. You'll have to add this yourself.
- A little purple waistcoat or vest.
- A dark yellow or red belt of cloth (you can easily use a cummerbund) wrapped around his waist
- A red fez. As everyone knows, fezzes are cool.
If you get cold easily or don't dare walk around bare chested and sexy looking, you can add a pale yellow or white shirt underneath.
The Purple Vest
The Style A740NP High Quality No Pocket Unisex Uniform Vest is pretty much perfect for Aladdin. You can also find it listed as the DayStar 740NP No Pocket Unisex Uniform Vest.
If you don't like that one, then there's always the Desert Prince Shirt and Vest.
If you don't like that one, then there's always the Desert Prince Shirt and Vest.
The Belt
- This Red Satin Mens Cummerbund is a safe and popular choice.
- Alternatives: cummerbunds or plain cloth wraps. Can be red, yellow or orange
The Pants
Aladdin wears loose, white (or off white) trousers. The waist doesn't matter, as the sash wraps around the top. You'll need to sew (or stick) your own diamond yellow patch on below the right knee.
If you can't find actually accurate trousers, then the closest option is probably the so called "parachute pants", if you can find them in white (they tend to come in the wrong patterns and range in bagginess, so some are perfect and others are completely wrong. The women's ones are usually the closest).
- The Off White Patiala Salwar and Dupatta Set
- These white Pirate Renaissance Medieval Costume Pants Trousers are a reasonably good match and can be reused in other costumes
- Non-baggy but comfortable Lounge Pants
- These UFO Cotton Parachute Pants aren't quite accurate but can be worn as streetwear
- If you feel daring, you can make your own using this Belly Dance Chalwar Pattern
Aladdin Costumes for Women!
If you want to dress up as a female Aladdin, here are a few more clothing choices (obviously you can still use the items suggested above).
- Cotton Harem Pants Bandeau Jumpsuit Romper
- Capri Gaucho White Pants
- This sewing pattern: Kwik Sew Harem Pants
- There's also the Hathaya's Harem Pants Pattern which is probably better for Jasmine
The Hat
Choose A Red Fez Hat!
Honestly, it doesn't really matter what you pick. A fez is a fez. His hat didn't have a tassel, so you can just cut that off when you get the hat.
