Alice Through the Looking Glass movie costumes on display at D23 Expo...

Next May seem like a long way away, but fortunately to help make the wait seem more bearable Disney gave us a first glimpse of some of the wonderful costumes from Alice Through the Looking Glass designed by Oscar-winner Colleen Atwood at this year's D23 Fan Expo at the Anaheim Convention Center on August 14, 2015.

This selection of four costumes and gowns were in addition to Alice's Mandarin costume look and the Young Mad Hatter's costume that were also exclusively on display from the 2016 film.

First up is a look at the ornate gown I believe will be worn by Helena Bonham Carter as 'Iracebeth of Crim', or the 'Red Queen' as we also know her.

If you like this heart-adorned Red Queen organic armour look, be sure to also check out this Bob Mackie designed costume from the 1966 Alice Through the Looking Glass TV movie.

Plus if you're a fan of the actress, you should also take a look at her Western gown from The Lone Ranger movie (designed by Penny Rose).

Mad Hatter Adventure Hero look worn by Johnny Depp

Next is another of Johnny Depp's outfits from the movie, this one described as the 'Hatter's Adventure Hero Look', which looks a bit like the eccentric character is going on safari in his own inimitable style.

If you like this 'Ribbon Fantasy' outfit from the forthcoming movie sequel, be sure to check out all these fabulous costumes worn by Mia Wasikowska in 2010's Alice in Wonderland too.

And finally, I believe this splendid white gown belongs to Anne Hathaway as 'Mirana of Marmoreal' or the 'White Queen'.

If you're a fan of the actress, be sure to also check out her astronaut costume from Interstellar on display, plus her Fantine costume from Les Misérables.

As you can see from all these fantastic costumes, there's certainly a different look to the movie with lots of new styles to enjoy on the big screen next year, and I also know costumers and cosplayers will love these costumes, especially with Halloween imminent.

Alice's Mandarin and Young Mad Hatter costumes from Disney's Alice Through the Looking Glass at D23 Expo...

Disney's Alice Through the Looking Glass movie adaptation may not reach cinemas until next May, but the D23 Expo at the Anaheim Convention Center on August 14, 2015 provided visitors with a first glimpse at some of the wonderful new costumes to be featured in the film inspired by Lewis Carroll's literary works and designed by three time Oscar recipient Colleen Atwood.

Mia Wasikowska reprises her role as the titular 'Alice' and will wear this Mandarin costume in the sequel to the 2010 film, where she will travel through strange new lands to help save Wonderland and stop the evil 'Lord of Time' and a plot to put the 'Queen of Hearts' back on the throne.

Apologies for the quality of the images, but the lighting in the convention center made it difficult to get great shots, but at least it was cool to see the colourful outfit from every angle for a change, back, front and sides. Hopefully they'll display the costumes again when the movie is released in 2016.

If you like this elaborate costume, be sure to check out more fantastic original costumes from Alice in Wonderland, which won Colleen Atwood an Academy Award.

Plus if you're a fan of the actress, you can also take a look at Mia Wasikowska's period costumes in Jane Eyre.

Not much is known about the film yet, although we do know the story involves time and this 'Young Hatter' celebration look was included in the movie costume exhibit.

We can only assume through makeup and digital wizardry Johnny Depp will play a younger version of his character 'Tarrant Hightopp', as Rhys Ifans will star as the Mad Hatter's father 'Zanik Hightopp'.

If you're a fan of Johnny Depp, be sure to also check out his Captain Jack Sparrow costumes from Pirates of the Caribbean, his Tonto movie costume from The Lone Ranger and even his Into the Woods Wolf costume.
