Another Disney World parkgoer is getting attention on TikTok after breaking Disney World’s dress code and getting a free shirt.
Alyssa Schueller posted a TikTok video on Friday that was filmed in Epcot, and it’s now been viewed more than 3 million times.
She first showed herself with the caption: “getting escorted to a free shirt because mine ‘isn’t appropriate.'” She then showed her bikini-style top, which was black with thin straps, and a Disney World employee.
Later in the video, you can see the employee filling out what appears to be a free-shirt voucher at a gift shop register, with a yellow Disney World T-shirt on the counter. Schueller then ended the video with a clip of herself wearing the new garment and making a peace sign.
“It’s true guys,” Schueller wrote across the video, seemingly referencing another popular TikTok video in which someone said Disney World sometimes gives free shirts to people who wear tops that it deems inappropriate.
In the comment section of her video, Schueller said she had previously worn the shirt to Animal Kingdom and was not reprimanded.
“Fyi I was at Animal Kingdom ALL morning without issue,” Schueller wrote. “Went to Epcot and this happened. Went back to AK and had no issue once again.”
“If Disney wants to endorse a dress code, then they need to do just that,” she continued. “But the inconsistency… pls.”

Disney World’s website says that “proper attire, including shoes and shirts, must be worn at all times,” as its theme parks are “casual, family-oriented” environments. It also says the theme park “reserves the right” to deny admission to or remove anyone who chooses not to abide by the dress code.
In May, TikToker Amanda DiMeo posted a video in which she said she got a $75 Disney World shirt for free after wearing a crop top that showed her underboob.
Some people applauded her actions at the time and said they want to try her “free-shirt hack.” Disney employees, however, said doing so could cause problems for those who work at the theme parks.
In an email previously sent to Insider, DiMeo said she didn’t know her shirt went against Disney World’s dress code, as she’d worn it to the park once before, in January. She also said that the free-shirt voucher had a $50 limit but that she asked to get the $75 jersey and “the manager approved it for the cashier.”
Representatives for Alyssa Schueller and Disney World did not immediately respond to Insider’s request for comment.
