Slay your closet monsters

Power-up your theme park apparel

July 7, 2025

Hey, Style Slayers — Happy Moda Monday!

Welcome Inside the Closet! In this edition, we’re sharing 1 quest, 2 tips, and 3 looks to help you embrace your unique style superpowers — Let’s step in! 👇

1 Quest for you to try

Whether you’re braving the coasters, splashing through water rides, or chasing Disney, Universal, or your movie magic in style, theme parks are the ultimate summer adventure. But between the heat, walking miles, and wanting to still look good in at least some of those family photos… what’s a fashion-forward nerd to do?

This week, we’re diving into park-perfect outfits for amusement parks, water parks, and Disneybounding dreams come true. You deserve to feel as good as you look while making memories that last longer than the souvenir churro wrapper in your backpack (speaking of which, you should probably clean your bag out before you head home…).

How to participate

  1. Choose: …a fandom, character, or ride that you love. Bonus if it sparks joy or childhood memories.
  2. Create: …an outfit inspired by it using only what’s already in your closet—or with minimal thrifting. Prioritize comfort + themed flair. Think “Jurassic Park tourist” or “Pokémon trainer on vacation.”
  3. Capture: Share your theme park-worthy outfit with #VostraModaQuest, or reply to this email with your entry.

The most inspiring outfit will be featured next week! Please let me know if you would like to remain anonymous.

2 Tips to help you slay

For this week’s quest, I’ve chosen to talk about what inspired this entire idea – my favorite theme park game, Roller Coaster Tycoon! I recently rediscovered and started playing this again on Steam, and as someone who personally doesn’t visit theme parks often, I have been truly enjoying the experience from the comfort of my home!

— Regardless of the style or theme you choose for this week’s quest, I highly recommend some clever layering options that can take you from the sunniest part of the day through the cool evening while staying comfy the whole time. If you can, look for items that breathe like moisture-wicking fabrics, linen blends, or techwear-inspired materials. Cotton may seem comfy, and it does breathe, but it will also hold sweat all day, along with the gallons of water it absorbed after going on the log flume ride…  

Our style suggestions

  1. Focus on feet first: While many of us may think about our shoes as the last part of our outfit, when it comes to theme parks, expect to be walking a few miles over the day! Try “fashion-sneakers” if you need some additional support, or stylish water-resistant sandals for those water park adventures. And don’t be afraid to bring some themed socks if you’re prone to blisters – yes, even in summer!
  2. Disneybounding abounds: If you love any opportunity to cosplay or dress as a favorite character, why not embrace the idea of Disneybounding? It’s about capturing the essence of a character through everyday clothing items like shirts, pants, skirts, dresses, and accessories, rather than formal costumes, and allows you to get creative while staying comfortable! Think blue denim shorts, an orange t-shirt, and a light green hat for a modern “Goofy” inspired outfit from what you may already own!
The highlight of Bri's last trip to an amusement park, about 12 years ago, was standing next to the water rides and getting splashed by the waves without needing to wait in line to cool off!

3 Looks for you to shop

Upgrade your wardrobe with just one click! Shop these fresh looks to trend the multiverse and never go out of style.

The Mr.

The Mr Theme Park inspiration - this look is inspired by "Disneybounding", and specifically, recreating a Donald Duck look for your next Disney World trip! Still keeping our theme park power-ups in mind, this outfit features linen-blend shorts, top, bow tie, and hat, as well as fashionable footwear that will still be comfortable for walking all day, and a sports-style water-resistant watch in case you hit the water rides!

The Mx.

The Mx Theme Park inspiration - this outfit is for my fellow gamer nerds who used to spend hours building out their theme park with Roller Coaster Tycoon! What better way to pay tribute than recreating a RCT Guest outfit! The most common guest looks feature a red top and teal/blue pants (that's basically all you can see with the limited pixel count in the game, haha). We stuck with our theme park power-ups by opting for an athletic shirt made for movement and hot weather, and paired it with lightweight, turquoise blue linen pants for additional comfort in warm weather! Because I wanted to shout-out RCT specifically, our accents include a black and white Roller Coaster Tycoon logo hat, an RTC mug (probably not for actual park wear), and a RCT pin of the popular "Slide 1" ride! To tie our accent hat together with the rest of the outfit, we went with a black vinyl belt, black aviator glasses, and black barefoot shoes for those who prefer to let their toes stretch out!

The Ms.

The Ms Theme Park inspiration - for our Universal theme park attendees, how could I not use the opportunity to create a Jurassic Park inspired look - I mean, park is in the name after all! Based on Dr Ellie Sattler's outfit, this look combines out park power-up tips by using athletic/tech wear items to wick away sweat and keep you dry and comfy, as well as linen blend items like the pink button down shirt as an additional layer should you need it! High-top sneakers are reminiscent of her boots, but since they are in sneaker form, much lighter material for those summer steps! And we even included some small but cute accessories in gold and brown, like these hoop earrings, a gold and brown watch, and a woven gold and brown belt. Don't be surprised if you find yourself saying, "Dinosaurs eat man, woman inherits the earth," at some point during your day!
