ABOUT PRINCE PHILIP:
Prince Philip is a central character in Disney’s Sleeping Beauty, known for his bravery and charm. As the betrothed of Princess Aurora, he embodies the ideal prince, displaying qualities like strength, loyalty, and a sense of humor. Philip defies the evil fairy Maleficent, ultimately battling her in dragon form to rescue Aurora. His true love’s kiss breaks her curse, symbolizing the power of love and courage
1. TUNIC – Start this simple costume with a dark brown lace-up tunic.
2. SHIRT – Under your shirt, we recommend wearing a black thermal shirt for that extra-tight fit.
3. BELT – If you don’t want to find a specific cosplay belt then a regular black belt with a gold buckle can be a good alternative.
4. HAT – Of course, there is no substitute for this quality-made Prince Philip hat.
5. PANTS – Pair your vest with some Renaissance-style banded-cuff trousers.
6. CLOAK – Add a red cloak with an extended collar and you are almost there!
7. BOOTS – Finally, these pirate cosplay boots round out this look perfectly.
Prince Philip is the original Disney Princess and the perfect partner for Aurora. He was also born from an age when Disney’s take on the world was fairly black-and-white. The prince saved the princess and they lived happily ever after.
This is a great outfit idea for anyone with nostalgic feelings for the simpler times that Prince Philip embodies. It also helps that this look is super easy to make and instantly recognizable.

Start with a dark-brown tunic over a fitted black top, then add dark trousers, boots and a black belt with a gold-tone buckle. A red cloak and feathered prince-style hat complete the look. The cloak creates the strongest color accent against the otherwise muted outfit featured in this guide.
An oversized dark-brown shirt can suggest the tunic when worn over a close-fitting black top and cinched with a belt. A simple lace-up neckline adds a period-style detail if you want it. Keep the lower edge long enough to overlap the trousers and preserve the layered silhouette beneath the red cloak.
Aurora is Prince Philip’s natural costume partner, creating a recognizable Sleeping Beauty couple. Maleficent adds a dramatic antagonist for a larger group. Keep Philip’s red cloak, brown tunic and hat visible beside their distinctive dresses and headpieces, so his simpler clothing still reads as a specific character from the film.
A sword is optional for this Prince Philip outfit. The red cloak, feathered hat and tunic establish the character without a handheld prop, especially alongside Aurora. If you prefer a simple party costume, concentrate on those clothing details and the belt rather than adding accessories you will need to carry.
Plain brown or black boots can replace the pirate-style pair shown in this guide. Choose a tall, relatively simple shape and tuck the trouser cuffs in neatly. Removable boot covers are another option if your existing shoes are comfortable, helping suggest the period silhouette without buying footwear for one event.
Choose a lightweight red cloak that ends above the floor and sits comfortably across the shoulders. Keep the front open enough to show the brown tunic and gold-tone buckle. The red fabric should frame the outfit, while the hat and visible dark layers preserve the rest of Philip’s recognizable shape.
