Cool Cat LadyWe are not sure where the crazy cat lady myth started, but we certainly do have an opinion on it! We think that cats are great and that you can almost always fit one more cat into any house. For example, our office used to have zero cats (the shame!), but then we took a vote and decided to get an office pet. Unfortunately, we did not decide who would go get the cat and now we have 100 rescued cats roaming around the office!That sounds like a lot, but it’s not so bad! The worst part is that each day it is someone’s job to clean all 101 litter boxes, which takes about eight hours. But it’s worth it because we have cats that sit on our laps all day every day! Nothing makes costume design easier than having one or twelve cats on your lap!Mr. WhiskersesWe also had a long office argument about what to name all the cats, but, since we had already agreed on Mr. Whiskers, we just named them all that. Now our 100 Mr. Whiskerses love their new home, and we all spontaneously grew these cool cat lady wigs on our heads! It seems that twenty is the cutoff for when you have become a crazy cool cat lady… but that won’t stop us from getting just one more, will it?
If the Flappers are remembered for anything, it's that they really knew how to accessorize. They took the inspiration they had for a simple and elegant yet fun and exciting dress and put it to work with their entire outfit. Instead of putting a whole bunch of flowers or feathers in their hair they instead would settle for just one or two of each of those and make sure it was as shiny or dark as it gets. The extreme differences in color were sure to stand out in the world of flashing lights and boisterous jazz music. Now you can embody the definition of 1920s high times fashion with this beautiful gold headband. It's sure to turn quite a few heads and dazzle the entire room when this baby shines in the light or twinkles as you jive around the room. Don't forget to grab your favorite feathery boa and a pearl necklace on your way out.
Sixteen Candles StyleRemember those 1980s fashions? Weren’t they just amazing? Sure, they weren’t always practical – many of the styles were stolen from less-trendy occupations. Those chunky legwarmers probably weren’t always headed to a workout: More likely, you’d sport them for coffee with a friend. Most of the totally rad Sperry Topsiders in circulation never treaded a yacht’s deck, but they sure looked snazzy on a college campus. And those amazing neon ski suits that every young lady was pining to have? We doubt many of them saw a single ski slope. But hey, if those ladies had ever wanted to start winter sports, they would have looked sensational while slaloming!Product DescriptionEmbrace your 80s ethos when you rock this Women’s Awesome 80s Ski Suit Costume! This powder blue jumpsuit is playful, preppy, and absolutely the last word in stylish loungewear. The jumpsuit has elastic in the wrists, ankles, and waist so that you can show off that gorgeous figure you earned from all of those aerobics classes. The sleeves are purple and the collar is neon pink because you can’t have an 80s outfit without neon, obviously! A yellow zipper closure runs from the collar down the front of the jumpsuit so that you can customize your neckline. Yellow, pink, and purple stripes wrap around the right leg just above the ankle for some added funk. The yellow triangle emblem on the right front doubles as a pocket - to hold your Bazooka Gum, of course!Exercise? You Mean Extra-Stylish!You’ll be queen of the slopes in this excellent 80s-style ski suit! Of course, your outfit is so cute that it really isn’t meant for actual exercise. Better stay in the lounge and watch the parade of medallion necklaces, high-waisted jeans, and Ray-Bans. Totally tubular!
From gangster to rock star, you'll look like a tough guy with a fake cig in your mouth. Trust us, you're going to want a box of Fake Cigarettes to complete your look. It's okay, in the 1920s people actually thought smoking was cool.Since we now know that smoking isn't all that cool and actually has some pretty nasty side effects, a fake cigarette is just what you need to complete your look without having to shell out your hard-earned money on a pack of the real thing. You also get to avoid smoking everyone out with your second-hand smoke.The best part about these fake cigarettes? You can use them inside or outside - no need to put it out when you walk into your 1920's party! The perfect complement to any flapper-era costume or even a 1950s look. In the case, a little bit of cash goes a long way for giving you an authentic look.
Do you ever wonder if we're able to have as much fun as people had in the eighties? They really knew how to live it up! Just take their aerobics videos for instance. Everyone is jumping around in unison while wearing brightly colored leotards, full makeup, and permed hair. Who wouldn't want to dance around with that kind of enthusiasm? Sure, their obsession with shoulder pads might have been a mistake and maybe they went a little over board when it came to using blush but that doesn't mean we aren't missing out. It's time to take some of that enthusiasm back! It's happening little by little, despite our ironic, unenthusiastic tendencies. Our suggestion for bringing back that intense eighties love of life and color? Pump up the jams and then pump up your hair! When you're wearing this wig with curls that won't stop you just might find yourself feeling the beat harder than you ever have before. Which works well, after all this gorgeous wig was practically designed for enthusiastic head bobbing!
Don't Stop Til You Get Enough It's time to disco! You've got the glitter, bell-sleeved top, the chunky platform shoes, and the peace-symbol necklace. All that's left to do is transform your hair into the perfect mane of voluminous curls. But wait! Don't break out the perm solution. We all know that sort of thing can end badly. Instead, why not transform for the night into a disco princess with the help of the perfect accessory? Just call us your disco godmother. Product DetailsThis exclusive Disco Dancer Wig will give you boogie fever as soon as you put it on! Its synthetic mesh cap sits snugly on your head so that you can bump and YMCA to your heart's content. The long, dark brown synthetic hair is styled into curls with crazy volume and parted in the middle. Boogie Wonderland Turn any party into a Disco Inferno just by showing up in this wig! Tony Manero would be so jealous.

Go back to the smoky jazz clubs of the Roaring ‘20s era Chicago and feel the style and energy as the talent of their flappers leaves little competition, especially when faced with the ‘Shimmy Queen,’ Gilda Gray.But, ha! Who even can think of that when there is a new lass in town who is ready to really lay it out! We’re of course talkin’ about Lacey Lindy! She weren’t like no other dame of the speak.

Oh, my, god, like did you see that bangin' hair! She looked better than Jem, and totally blitz. I can't wait to ask her what kind of hair spray she uses. Okay, the valley girl talk totally needs to like book. The 80s was a time when fashion was flashy, the slang was silly, and hair was big. Poofy sleeves, and big hair were all you needed to be considered a cool girl. Maybe an attitude would have helped also! We're pros at making folks cool for Halloween around here. For you 80s look only the best will do and that's The 80's Salon Wig. Get your inner blond to come out and rock out to glam rock. Don't worry no 80s icons were hurt in making this wig, it is 100 percent synthetic care. Pre-styled and ruffled, we teased it to perfection so you will look beautiful.

Sick of the regular Halloween social scene out there these days? All the same people, hanging out in the same places, watching the same scary movies on the big screen TV and ordering the same half-price appetizers. Yeah, we hear you. But we have an idea for you.

Of course you know that you have to have your hair in finger waves for the big party. That’s because you’ll be putting on a sequined elastic headband over them, and making the faceted faux gem on the front of it shine while you do the Shimmy!
In this fast-paced age, sometimes relaxing on the weekend after a long work week just isn't enough. Sometimes, you just gotta drop everything, put on this Groovy Go Go Dancer Costume, and get down tonight! Trust us, it's way easier than dancing in business clothes.Way back in the swinging days of hippies and go go dancers, people sure knew how to party! For many folks back then, psychedelic styles were more than just a kookie fashion statement; they were a life statement. If you saw someone wearing a tie dye shirt or a dress covered in bright colorful flowers, it's a pretty safe bet that they dug peace, love, and freedom. Those trendy fashions also gave off rad vibes on the dance floor, so it's no surprise that even to this day, groovy chicks and dudes like to wear them while they party! That being said, if you're coming off of a grueling week at the workplace and you're in need of some serious unwinding, just slip into this fab and funky miniskirt, drop the needle on your favorite pop album, and your troubles will melt away before you know it!Okay, it might be a little more complicated than that. This outfit doesn't actually contain any mood altering substances (even if the pattern on it suggests otherwise...) but we're still sure wearing this costume to a vintage dance party will help you forget some of your modern problems for a bit! Don't be surprised if everything still has a groovy aura around it when you head back to work on Monday, or you might just still be wearing the tinted glasses.

The Funky Chicken! The Robot! The Bump!) all sound so crazy that almost anything you could come up with will sound legit. "Have you tried the Ham and Eggs? What about the Just Dropped an Anvil on My Foot? Or the My Arm Fell Asleep and I'm Trying to Wake It Up?" See? They definitely sound like they could be disco moves.
Setting the Record StraightWe often think of the fifties as a quiet time, but that's not quite right. Teens in the fifties spent many of their weekends heading to dances, grooving to loud music. Sometimes they were just swinging in their stocking feet to record music, other times they were doing planned dances to live music. Long story short, it was a fun time to be young! With rock and roll artists like Little Richard and songs like Yakety Yak fresh on the scene, you can imagine that it would be hard to keep your feet on the ground. No wonder why girls wore poodle skirts, perfect for swing dancing! Are you ready to put together your sock hop costume? Then you're going to need the right accessories!Product DetailsThis sweet purse is another thoughtful accessory that's Made by Us. You don't have to break up the theme of your ensemble, keep your wallet and keys in place with this Vinyl Record Purse. The shiny surface is paired with a classic fifties checkered pattern and neon colors to make your unique bag pop in just the right way. And it's long enough to sling over your shoulder to keep your fingers free to do some serious hand jiving!
Sure, a polyester psychedelic-print jumpsuit, platform boots, a fringe or fro wig, and the right dance moves can all show off your 70s style this Halloween. But why not just scream it from the rooftop at the top of your lungs and make sure there is absolutely no question in anyone’s mind?This 1970’s Gold Necklace does just that! This swag makes it abundantly clear just what decadent decade you’re dressed in, and it’s undoubtedly the hottest and hippest way to catch disco fever and keep it shining all night long. The pendant necklace is actually made from cloth, but looks just like shining gold--how groovy (not to mention lightweight on the dance floor!) So don’t delay, you cool cat; you better hustle if you hope to sling on this bling and show everyone at the disco just what kind of swinging style they are dealing with.
Missing OutYou missed it. The 70s came and went. The disco balls are all stashed away in storage. Lipps Inc. packed it up after "Funkytown". Everyone stopped wearing bell bottoms and there are far fewer afros going on. People rarely do the hustle anymore. These days it’s about the Nae Nae. You could just let disco be done. You could just go on your way and pretend like it never happened, but that’s not the kind of person you are, is it?You’re ready to revitalize the disco scene.

Hey Flower Child, let go of all the, like, bad energy out there, right? We can see your true aura and it's beautiful. Say no to war and yes to peace and love. We have to go on a journey into the mind with this far out costume. The hippie movement is back and it's time to go to Woodstock and discover the beauty of the pure world. Dance in the rain, or in the mud, or in a field, or really anywhere, because it's all about making the most of your own personal journey.You don't need to be on a journey to see how amazing this costume is.

Put on the Doors or the Mamas & the Papas and pretty soon you'll find yourself protesting the Vietnam War and demanding the resignation of Nixon! What a time to be alive!
Hey, doll, ready to head out on the town and hit some gin joints and jazz clubs? Dressing up in your swankiest glad-rags and finest feather scarf sounds like the bee’s knees. It also gives you a chance to glam up and wear your swanky jewelry. Then, you’ll be ready to pop some champagne corks (non-alcoholic champagne, of course, just in case the G-men are listening in…) and dance the night away, like a classy gal from the Roaring Twenties!Though, when you’re putting together your fancy flapper costume, we’d recommend sporting this Beaded Silver Necklace, and leaving the family heirloom jewelry at home. Your great grandma’s pearls and sparkling silver necklaces are stunning, but if you’re just going out to do the Lindy Hop and chat up some fellas at a costume party, these silver colored plastic beads will do the trick. Save the expensive jewelry for a special occasion!
Physical fitness has always been an intensive industry. There are countless products aimed at ensuring that we’re in the right stance, lifting the right weight, eating the right balanced foods, sleeping the proper number of hours and in the right positions. Ugh. Who can keep track of all of that? Sure, we now have countless apps for our Smartphones, some of them even wearable on our wrists or clothes, all designed to tell us how well we’re doing and, in most of our cases, how much more we need to keep doing to catch up to that extra slice of pie we’re planning on for next month… but there is something critical that has been missing in our fitness routine for far too long.What about the fashion!? Everything looks the same, these days. Black, sleek, and boring. It is all about getting in and out as quickly as possible and, apparently, never being seen! What have we become: ninjas of the elliptical? What about the workout routines that inspired us to get up and moving in the first place? What about the color? What about… the ‘80s!? What is the point of getting in shape if the only thing that awaits us is a long life of dull black and running in place?Thankfully, you are here to give us that splash of color and energy and we have just what you need to make it happen: the Women’s ‘80s Workout Girl getup! The base of the outfit is a polyester/spandex blend stretch knit bodysuit with printed stripe design and matching leggings with a comfortable elastic waistband. The colors are to die for so you may not even need to worry about that old no pain, no gain adage! And, no ‘80s look would be complete without a cotton pullover crop top sweatshirt! Once you’re ready in this outfit, you can consider flaring out your hair in feathered ‘80s style and picking up matching (or not-matching) legwarmers and you will be ready to get physical!.

You know what sounds really difficult about being a car hop? No, it's not cooking the perfect griddled onions, although we're VERY picky about that... No, what sounds really hard about being a car hop is rollerskating while holding a tray of food. Have you ever held an old-fashioned milkshake? Those things are surprisingly heavy! Any kid who decides to make their career carhopping is a genuine hero in our books.There are little things that help make it easier, though. It's best to try and stay agile, learning to rollerskate is a must, and learning how to be sassy with that fun 50s lingo is also a good idea. But what we think really helps transform someone from regular old waitress into a car hop is certainly the costume. Just look at this girls 50s Car Hop costume! It screams vintage, and that's exactly what you want. Nostalgia for when food took a little longer, and always arrived via rollerskate. We love it!This high quality costume for kids has a lot of fun 50s details that really evoke a sense of that era. Did we mention that it's high quality? It really is! It can definitely be worn more than once, which is good because most car hops work more than one day a year. This costume has fun pinstriping, a wide contrasting collar, an apron, and even a matching hat! Just add a pair of saddle shoes and she'll be ready to roll!

Perhaps your parents or grandparents have told you stories of the days when milk was delivered to the home daily or a couple of times per week by the happy, always on time Mr. Milkman. Those were the days before every home had a refrigerator... can you imagine? Where would we keep our leftover pizza? Where would we keep our open box of baking soda? Where would we forget about that half-eaten tuna sandwich we made late at night in famished desperation?? So many questions remain for this here milkman costume. While it recalls that earlier, perhaps simpler era, don't worry, you can still use the fridge as you always have... whew!
Before your little one could even walk she seemed to enjoy those crooning pop songs of the fifties. For an infant, she seemed to be a little sentimental. If she had been around during the Elvis era she would have been one of the screaming teenagers at the front of the crowd. Sure, it's too bad that she won't be growing up in that age of innocence and sweet, shiny T-birds but there are ways to make your old soul kid feel at home in our modern age. First, stick to records and radios. The fifties child might feel overwhelmed by fancy music streaming through a Bluetooth speaker or even CD's. If you play an old school record you just might find that your little one has some pretty great dancing skills! A second way to keep them at ease in our new millennium is to have regular trips to your local old school diner. The vinyl seats and chrome edging will make her feel at home, get her a chocolate shake and she'll be in seventh heaven, you might even gain access to a jukebox and teach your little one the hand jive. The most impactful way to put your little girl in touch with her fifties soul is a classic fifties ensemble. After all, it's hard to learn to swing dance when you're wearing a boring old pair of jeans. This poodle skirt and checkered shirt combo have that classic appeal that will make your nostalgic kid's dreams come true. Whether she's dressing up for Halloween or you are going to a school sock hop with the family, she's sure to have plenty of fun with it. Just put on that Elvis record and learn some swinging moves from your classic 50's kid!
Fashion is a tough industry to get one’s thumb on. It changes with the winds and we’ll never know what trends are going to make the decade famous. The vote is looking pretty unlikely for tin foil hats but not much better for floral-patterned Crocs or shoulder padded velour tracksuits.While it is true that some of our most notorious of fashion trends have vanished to time, others stay in our minds like fond dreams. The team is still voting on the fashion trend that comes in second place—it is between rainbow leg warmers, bell-bottoms, or the bedazzled ‘mom sweater’ featuring a unicorn wearing rainbow leg warmers—but first place has easily come from the inspired Roaring ‘20s. The style and energy of their flappers leaves little competition, especially when faced with the ‘Shimmy Queen,’ Gilda Gray.That’s why we offer you a truly transformation opportunity with the Vibrant Fuchsia Flapper Dress. Make it about all that jazz as you channel your inner Sugar ‘Kane’ Kowalczyk and Roxie Hart and flap your way to fame. The perfect combination of brilliant fuchsia and silver, the dress and included accessories are sure to be noticed and the sequins and fringe will make you truly shake and sparkle. With a sleeveless pullover tank dress provides mobility and the feathered and sequined headband will make you the queen of dance. Relive this gorgeous fashion trend and jazz it up with a few perfect accessories like a feathered boa and some beads, and just wait for your well-deserved applause.

On stage, they add drama to a performance and mystery to a character. There’s only one problem: shedding feathers.There’s nothing sophisticated about cleaning up a pile of fluff that has fallen out of an accessory.

So, what are you going as for your next costumed event? Oh, a villainous ski bum from an eighties movie! Hmm, what an interesting idea! You'd better have your wicked eighties insult list ready. Don't have any good ones? Don't have a cow. Just look eighties slang on the internet, like we did. Hey, the world wide web wasn't invented in the eighties but now it's "totally tubular." Whether you're going as that John Hughes movie heart throb or an over the top, neon wearing eighties villain, having the right hair do is super important. This classic style will fit whatever character you choose. The long brown locks will look right at home as you're lifting that boom box over your head to serenade your ex-girlfriend.

Remember, it's the eighties so party hearty, dude!
WOOD NYMPHS AND FAERIE FOLKThe Groovy 70s might have been a time of peace and love but it was also pretty loud about its stance on flower power. That might seem like just a phrase—a catchy slogan about non-violence and the preference of planting flowers over firepower—but when you invoke the name of nature and offer some flashy colors, awesome music, and a loving message, you're bound to draw the attention of some of the original folks... and we're talking folk lore. Faerie creatures have a pretty clear interest in keeping the natural world intact and those wood nymphs just can't get over how similar the hippie movement replicated their chosen style of clothing. Of course, they tend to wear actual flowers woven together in vines and wisps of enchanted water, but even our designers would have a tough time figuring out how to put a thread through beads of water to keep the whole thing together! DESIGN & DETAILSGet close to the mystical look of the woodland faeries with this 70s Wild Flower costume. This is a mini dress with wide, flared sleeves. It is detailed with the cool colors of a light blue base with green and dark blue flowers all over. Whether you are pairing this with some knee-high boots or some 70s-style hair, the free-flowing movement of the sleeves and skirt just might have you feeling like a flower blossom on the wind. And, is there a more flower-power feeling than that!? WHEN 1970 MEETS 1070It might be a bit of a stretch to say that the 11th century had much influence over the style of the 70s Flower Children, but you will certainly feel an air of mystery and magic when you're spinning around in this Wild Flower Dress. Join up with some other hippies and you'll have those faeries showing up to team up in no time!

FlapperspeakEver wish you had a reason to talk out of the side of your mouth like someone on the nineteen-twenties silver screen. They just had the art of suave lingo down perfectly. What you need is the motivation to learn flapper phrases from the top to the bottom. Here are a couple tips. Every noun has a couple different names. For instance, something as simple as legs can be called gams or pins or if you're a bootlegger you might call your legs our personal favorite term which is getaway sticks. We've got to use this even if you're not dressed as a silver screen star. Secondly, you've got to have one hand on your hip and suavely hold something else in your other hand. It could be a candy cigarette in a cigarette holder. It could be a martini glass. It could even be a noise maker. Just do it with elegance and you'd look right at home in the brassy, classy twenties scene. Costume DescriptionYou'll look like a million bucks when you're wearing this fabulous ensemble. This dress has a luxurious dropped waist that's trimmed in twisting sequins. The skirt has two tiers of long fringe. The bodice is a showstopper with black sequins on soft red velvet. Polish your ensemble off with a pair of lovely black silky gloves and a fluffy feather boa and you'll be ready for your jazz club debut. Not Taking Any Wooden NickelsWhen you're looking like a million bucks, you can't be taking any wooden nickels. You've got the fringe, you've got the sequins, so basically, a lady like you isn't going to take any "phonus balonus". You'll be ready to step out if you're invited to a hotsy-totsy twenties themed party. Or you could simply have a totally fabulous Halloween and pair up with a zoot suit wearing tough guy. Whatever you do, never forget that you're a million bucks!

Y’know, disco music sometimes gets a bad rap (heck, there was a whole stadium event where hundreds of kids destroyed disco records in a huge bonfire and then basically started rioting over how much they hated the genre) but we gotta be honest: We’re big fans! Hear us out: There’s nothing like a four-on-the-floor drum beat and syncopated electric bass line to get you off your seat and on the floor, ya dig? And those symphonic components…? String sections, flutes, horns, and electric piano, sometimes all in one song?! That stuff is LUSH!Also, you can’t beat a great back story, and a lotta disco songs got ‘em. “Disco Inferno” by The Trammps - often cited as the first “official” disco song (there’s earlier stuff by The Supremes, Stevie Wonder, and The Jackson 5 that sound like disco, but disco purists often argue that “Disco Inferno” was the first song that had all the technical and classic elements of a disco song) - was inspired by a scene in the 1974 blockbuster film The Towering Inferno in which a discotheque is caught in the blaze. Le Freak (Freak Out) by Chic was written after the members of Chic were denied entry at Club 54 (the pinnacle nightclub during the disco era). To vent their frustration, they began riffing on a song with the chorus “Freak Out”. And while disco may have died, just before it cashed it out, it gave birth to a new and enduring genre of music with the very first hip hop song, “Rapper’s Delight” by Sugar Hill Gang (hint: Listen to the song’s lyrics to find out why the genre became known as “hip hop”).So anyway! You should get this Mens Disco Shirt. It's got a classic 70s wide collar and front buttons, and it even comes with a black curly wig for an extra sweet '70s touch. Pair the shirt with some swingin' bell bottomed slacks and platform shoes, and you'll be ready Le Freak your way to a good time!
Style And FearBack in the Prohibition era, the criminal underworld had more than just power. They had style too. With those two things put together, the gangsters of the '20s were a fearsome force. They dressed as well as the respected businessmen and politicians of the time. Like those men of power, when they entered a room they were greeted with respect. But more than that, they were also met with fear.Most people dress up as monsters for Halloween. At all of the costume parties, we're sure you'll see plenty of vampires, zombies, and other gruesome monsters. However, everyone will know true fear once you make your grand entrance wearing this Men's Black Gangsta Suit Costume. It will look as if you just stepped out of the Roaring Twenties and you're ready to take over the town. Instead of ruling with claws and fangs, you will rule with an iron fist!Darb DetailsGrab this stylish costume today and be the big cheese, the head honcho, the boss on Halloween. This gangster getup is composed of 6 pieces that will make you look like a Roaring Twenties powerhouse. The first two parts are the most noticeable, the black and white pinstripe double breasted suit. It is designed with four buttons on the jacket, two of them being functional. The next four parts of this costume are all accessories. First, there is the white dickey. Then you will also receive a red tie decorated with the printed image of a machine gun. A carnation that can be easily pinned to your lapel is included. Finally, you can top off this ensemble with the lid, your new black hat.
Nothing screams the 80s like an awesome pair of fishnet gloves that have no function other than to look amazing. Don't get us wrong, they do a great job of that. Just don't wear them around in the winter and expect not to get frostbite in diamond shapes like the holes in your new fashion statement. We guess that would be a pretty cool look as long as you didn't tell anyone the story of how you forgot the real winter gloves at home (eh, still not quite worth it.). Boy, what a weird time those mullet rocking ages were. At least the gloves looked really cool, even if they were also literally chilly as well. But if you do decide on that you might as well try a pair of neon blue ones to match the color of your frost bitten hands. Not convinced? Well there's always the fact that you can match these with any other radical neon colors we have, and look totally awesome at your next 80s dance party because nobody's going to dare put you in the corner with that attitude.
