Probably one of the coolest things about hippies is that hippie culture was arguably really only A Thing for a handful of years, yet has continued to have a permanent influence. It unofficially started around 1964 thanks to American novelist Ken Kesey and his Merry Pranksters (some of whom you now know as The Grateful Dead). Their psychedelic and communal exploits - later chronicled by Merry Prankster member Tom Wolfe in "The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test" - attracted a legion of young adults who, intrigued by the developing psychedelic hippie music scene, dropped out of school and moved to San Francisco and LA to be a part of the "Tune in, turn on, and drop out"movement. Hippies rose to the forefront of mainstream culture in 1967, the summer of which was famously coined "The Summer of Love" thanks to the rise of psychedelic culture, a surge of California music festivals, and heightened protests concerning the US military involvement in Vietnam. The Hippie Movement culminated in Woodstock in 1969, then quickly (as in, only four months later) faded into widespread disillusionment after the tragic deaths that took place at the Altamont Free Concert and the After that, the peace and love of the hippie movement started to slowly decline, first fading with five deaths at the Altamonte Music Festival, and finally deep-diving into disillusionment with the "Helter Skelter" killings done by the Manson Family.But anyway! Take yourself back to a more free lovin' time and instantly transform into a flower child with this Groovy Hippie Wig.

Disco DreamingThe nights are long. The lights are hot. And the music. The music is as funky as you can get.

We remember the 1980s. It was a magical time. You could listen to Cyndi Lauper on the radio while, trying to figure out that darn Rubik’s Cube that your uncle got you for your birthday. You could watch pop on the TV to watch 9 to 5. You could tease your hair to make you a whole foot taller. You could even argue with your friends about whether Burt Reynolds or Tom Selleck had the coolest mustache (it’s Burt). But most of all, you could wear neon colors like there was no tomorrow.Yes, neon colors. Gosh, do we love neon colors. Nothing helps you stand out in a crowd like a bright green stripe on your track jacket, or hot pink on your sleeves. For some reason, people just don’t wear those colors like they used to, but we’re trying to bring it back!

It's up to you whether you want to let your kazoo-playing younger sibling open the show.

Turning the TablesThe era before the twenties was a little dark when it came to fashion. Not to pick on the Edwardians but they really pressed for a middle part hairstyle that worked on almost no one. In the nineteen-tens people were doubling down on corsets, using new technology to make waists tinier than ever. And while the fashion authorities tried to keep woman buttoned up and weighed down by skirts, ladies wanted something new. They wanted to ride bikes, play sports, and vote. Once the decade rolled over to the twenties, women had had enough. They shortened their skirts, cast off their corsets, and cut their hair. They were ready to make a paycheck and have some fun. Now, if that doesn't call for a little sparkle, we don't know what does!Design & DetailsThis lovely Made by Us Amethyst Flapper Costume will bring the roaring twenties right to your door! The sparkly purple dress is trimmed with silver sequins and has the traditional flapper era fringe around the hem of the skirt. Zipping up the back, the dress is easy to slip into, even if your makeup is already finished. A sequin headband topped off with a matching purple feather completes this playful yet elegant look, making it ready to go as soon as it arrives at your door!Shimmy Up Shimmy OutOnce you slip into this fringed dress, you might find out why the flappers are so famous for their dancing. After all, the layers of fringe really make for some serious fun on the dance floor. Top off this look with all sorts of accessories from a bobbed wig to long, silk gloves to make it your inner flapper come alive. Whether you're heading to a birthday party or putting together a group costume, this costume is a great way to celebrate our thoroughly modern age!
Back in the olden days, they didn’t believe in any pesky new-fangled inventions like elastics! And that sticky, plastic-y stuff they put on the inside of strapless bras to hold them up (we have no idea what that’s called, but you know what we’re talking out!)? Get outta here! Back then, they had to rely on good old-fashioned strips of fabric and clips to hold their garments up!Luckily for them and for us, those vintage made-dos just happened to also be ultra-sexy and provocative! Maybe it’s the fact that women couldn’t go out in public showing their bare knees until the 1920s, or maybe it’s that having to undo those extra garter clips lent them naturally to the art of the tease. Whatever it is, when it comes to being a true pin-up, you don’t want to leave out the best part of the ensemble! That's why you need these Garter Boy Shorts - keep the tease going by wearing them with any fishnet or silk stockings of your choice!
Rollers for DaysFinding out that your child has chosen a profession is usually a delightful time!

70'S SENSATION Today, all the kids are listening to mumble rappers and toting fidget spinners on their fingers. The world is a completely different place than it was back in the 1970's. Back then, people were making rocks into pets and using color-changing rings to decode their mood. Now, people purchase exotic pets over the internet. Also, using the internet to decipher illnesses is another completely acceptable activity in our society. (Basically, the world wide web runs every aspect of our lives now.)Even though many aspects of life have dramatically changed since the 70's, some fundamental elements have stayed similar for the most part. For example, the fashion sense isn't too far off from the way it was during the swinging 1970's. Sequins and sparkled were all the rage and guess what? They still are. Back then, fashion was all about flares and belled bottoms. Just recently, the trend has come back in style which is why the women's plus size disco doll costume is such a prime choice. The dress captures the essence of the era but it's also considered modern and high-fashion too, making it a great decade-themed costume choice.PRODUCT DETAILS You'll be dripping in a luxurious gold sheen that can't be ignored. The V-neck dress fastens around the body with a functional back zipper. It features a stylish mock-wrap silhouette that looks very flattering on plus size body types. The long sleeves have flares on the ends and cut-outs on each shoulder, giving the dress a sassy edge. Finally, an attached belt with a plastic side buckle completes the snazzy disco doll costume.GOLDEN GIRL You'll be a radiant disco queen where ever you're hustling to as long as you pick up some key accessories. Pair this costume with gold heels and an afro wig to be the ultimate dancing queen.

Like The Daisies in the FieldThere is something to be said for the wisdom of the flowers in the field.

Roses, sunflowers, daisies… It doesn’t matter what kind of beauty you want to be; you can also be peaceful and free. That’s a pretty good lifestyle!On the other hand, you are just stuck out there, with no recourse. The flowers in the field just get soaked when the rains come, they get eaten by herds of deer, and they get trampled by all kinds of careless hikers. Then there’s also the fact that if they want to go see a movie with friends, it is a once in a lifetime thing, followed by about a week in a vase on a table somewhere… huh. Maybe that’s not so good.More Flower Power To YouWell, we here at Halloweencostumes.com have figured out a solution that should work for you.

What's your signature dance move? Are you a bobber, someone who mostly nods with various degrees of intensity? May you're more of wacky inflatable dancer type, someone who loses control of their arms as soon as the beat hits them. We all have our go-to moves but do we really know what we're doing on the dance floor these days? There are people who spastically take up all the room while the rest of us stand around trying to look cool. Whatever happened to official dances that we could dance together?When the waltz came around everyone thought it was scandalous (leave it to the Victorians to find the waltz scandalous). Apparently, courtly elders frowned on the waltz because it required two people to dance close together. Yikes. If only those old guys knew that it wouldn't be long until young ladies would start throwing away their corsets and raising their hemlines.Talk about perfect timing. As women's fashion was changing, so was music. Jazz had been developing in Harlem since the turn of the century and by the 20s jazz and the notable dance craze, The Charleston, was ready to blast into mainstream culture. If you were making your entrance at a fancy roaring 20s party you'd be all the rage in this outfit. The dropped waist with its pleated crepe skirt maintains a slim figure while allowing for those wild dance moves. You've got the faux fur caplet, fingerless lace gloves, and headband, now all you need are the dance moves. Now you're going to know your signature dance move, it's the flapper!
