You're technically not allowed to wear anything that is a costume, a historical dress, or could be considered distracting to other guests. Part of it is a traffic/safety issue, since French lolitas were having big meet-ups there, and tourists would start stopping to stare/want pictures/etc. One of the leaders of the main French lolita group was told by security to stop having meets there. Also, the palace does have special artists who perform on the grounds sometimes--they're not always in historical garb but are usually 'dressed up' in some way.

It's even more subjective than Disneyland. There have been girls who got in wearing full-blown sweet lolita, and girls who were turned down for muted classic coords. Or girls who made it by one security checkpoint and were stopped at another. Recently this girl got in and had no problems going into the palace, gardens, or the Marie Antoinette estate.... while I remember a girl wearing a similar outfit who was yelled at by security as soon as she stepped in.

And since Versailles cares even less about customer service, don't expect to get a free change outfit like you would at Disneyland.
