Moana Cosplay Costumes
In true Disney style, newcomer Moana is just one of their many stunning characters to cosplay. If you already have long hair, then the battle is half won! As with every character portrayal, guys or girls can take on this new addition to the Disney family. Think tropical when picking out a dress for Moana. While true to the big screen, a cropped shirt is not necessary to pull off her look, a Hawaiian themed dress or leaf hula skirt will suffice. As far as props, a small wooden replica paddle and a necklace with an oversized pendant will complete your Moana cosplay!
Moana has some unique pets. A stuffed pig or rooster could accurately represent her animal companions, Pua and Heihei. Another newcomer from this movie is character Maui, voiced by Dwayne Johnson and would be fun to include in group endeavors. Moana’s grandmother Tala and her father Chief Tui are also additional characters to toss into the mix. Definitely check out our featured pics below for more style ideas. Be sure to send in some of your own as well!

Forming a shaky alliance with a shapeshifting demigod named Maui to help her with her trial, Moana learns to trust her instincts and believe in herself. She may have left her island as an immature girl, but she returned successfully as a strong, budding young woman. In a story of strength and beauty, if you’re looking for a fresh cosplay idea, look no further than Moana!
