Everyone Has a Disney Aesthetic — What’s Yours Within Your Family?

So, your child has a deep love for Disney. We totally understand! If your little one is as enchanted by the House of Mouse as ours are, you’re likely going to need some insights into what a Disney aesthetic actually is. At some point, your child will likely ask for a Disney-themed bedroom—but not just any theme! They’ll want a space that captures all their favorite aspects of Disney. A simple, generic theme just won’t suffice! Believe it or not, figuring out your child’s Disney aesthetic can ease the decorating process (which means fewer meltdowns over Mickey).

And here’s a fun bonus: it’s not just the kids who have an aesthetic—if you’re a Disney enthusiast, you do too! Your personal Disney aesthetic blends your unique vibe, your favorite elements of Disney, and your beloved characters. For instance, those who resonate with the villaincore aesthetic often enjoy rides like the Haunted Mansion and relish the chill of winter as they don their dramatic capes. On the other hand, intellectuals may embrace Disney memorabilia that aligns with their admiration for Belle, the ultimate bookworm princess.

If you’re puzzled about what “aesthetic” means, you’re not alone. While the term has been around for ages, using it to define our personalities is a more recent trend. As people begin to express themselves through their belongings, wardrobe choices, and even culinary preferences, a personal aesthetic emerges. For example, if you’re obsessed with horror films and have a tattoo of a well-known character, you might describe your style as having a murder-y aesthetic.

Two important points to keep in mind when identifying an aesthetic: First, the way you (or your child) define it may differ from how others perceive the same interests. That’s perfectly fine! But the terms you choose should effectively convey your identity or aspirations. Second, someone can adopt an aesthetic without conforming to everyone’s strict definition of it.

So what distinguishes a general aesthetic from a Disney aesthetic? Not much—it’s simply a deeper layer that helps you articulate your vibe, making it easier to design a room for your little Disney enthusiast.
