Take the ladies of the Renaissance, they kept their hair covered and their eyes lowered but they also wove jewels into their clothing to amp up their style and make themselves stand out in the dimly lit castle rooms. Similarly, the ladies of Versailles had diamonds studded in their hair and dangling from their ears. The bright glimmer of diamonds has been a cornerstone of fashion throughout time. And the twenties were no exception. This was an era that was all about sparkle. While glass jewels often took the place of diamonds in over the top twenties jewelry and headpieces, this was a time when women of all classes had a moment to shine!Design & DetailsThis gorgeous white flapper dress has some serious glimmer.

Top this look off with the included sequin, feathered headband and you'll be ready to bring twenties-style shimmer into the new Millenia. Jazz Age AnticsThe roaring twenties theme is applicable for all sorts of occasions from bachelorette parties to birthday outings. You can easily make this costume your own with bobbed wigs, theatrical jewelry, silky gloves, and even a cigarette holder that would look right at home in a silent film.

Workin' the RoomSo your toddler is practically an aerobic master? We're not entirely surprised.

It's like they've got an excess of energy to run around all day long and will never run out. Hmm, maybe this could be the beginning of another awesome exercise revolution!Product DetailsThough if your kid is going to start this, we might as well do it right.

Actually, we're kind of jealous. Your kid could probably eat a tub of ice cream and not gain an ounce thanks to all of that running around they do. Hey, maybe your kid could give us some pointers? Wait... they're a toddler? So they won't be able to give us any advice on calorie burning and consumption? Well, how about this: just let them do their thing, running around like a happy spastic puppy and we'll follow. And if they're trick-or-treating around the neighborhood, they'll spread their enthusiasm throughout the neighborhood. It won't be long until the rest of the neighborhood gets inspired as well. Maybe everyone will get together to do some aerobics at the next block party. It'll be like the best workout ever.
When it comes to the legends of rock and roll, KISS definitely comes to mind. The four guys involved in the band revolutionized how we enjoy rock music, ushering in a new era of pyrotechnic-heavy concerts—from fire breathing, blood spitting, smoking guitars, shooting rockets and levitating drum kits, these guys had it all. In 2014, the group was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and they’ve sold more than 100 million records worldwide.What’s the secret to their massive appeal? The elaborate costumes and stage personas? The eye-catching face paint? The raw talent showcased in their music?Or maybe it’s the hair.Specifically, we’re talking about Gene Simmons’ hair, which is so unique it doesn’t even have a style to compare it to. Maybe a half-pony blow-out? We’re not sure… but we are sure that his hair has got to play a major part in the Demon’s never-waning popularity. The man is still playing concerts 40 years since he helped found the band, and he’s showing no sign of stopping.If you want to dress up like rock and roll’s favorite dark son for your next costume party, you definitely can’t forget about the hair. So buy this KISS Gene Simmons Wig. The styled black wig has a small ponytail on top and crimped hair on the sides, just like the real deal. We wouldn’t be surprised if you get mistaken for him as soon as you put it on. So put it on and get ready to rock and roll all night!

Oh, the eighties or the early nineties, whatever! Some of us got to experience it, others have to be satisfied with TV reruns and colorful eighties rap. The popular clothing of the time was beautiful, everything from the hats to eyewear to shoes. Oh, And the hair! Never, ever forget the hair. It was a time of color, of sass, and of swagger.First, let's focus on the hair. The beautiful, epic hair. These days people hardly even have bangs but back in that epic era, people went for some serious volume in their bangs and sometimes they were crimped. Sure, every once in a while you see someone with a couple crimped strands of hair but no one dares to venture to the middle of the face these days. People of the eighties and nineties really had courage with their fashion. For some evidence just take a glance at the glasses they wore. Yep, when it came to nerdy it was all or nothing. So, speaking of bravery, the color of the era was anything but muted. People confidently went into the world wearing wind suits, big earrings, and high heels. *sigh* Forgive us, this is some serious nostalgia we're feeling here.If you want to try your hand at that eighties swagger this tracksuit is a great introduction. With its mint green and hot pink accents, you'll be testing the waters without jumping to deep into the intimidating purple and turquoise paint splattered waters. Either you can pop on some heels and earrings and head out to a party or you could even put on a leotard underneath for a truly authentic vibe and maybe try out an aerobics routine.

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.

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!

Flappers were the beginning of the modern woman. They didn't wear corsets, they listened to jazz, wore makeup, and cut their hair. Modern women owe a lot to flappers. But, don't worry, you won't have to cut your hair into a bob to show your appreciation. It's all about attitude, a little bit of jazz, and a sassy dress.
Hey, groovy lady! Do you ever wonder what it would be like to head back to another time? A time, not so far back from now, a time when people reveled in shag carpeting and faux wood panels. A time that produced music that remains foxy to this day. When was this magical time you ask? Step into the VW bus with us and we'll take you.

Looking around you'll see that the people in the late sixties either have huge perms or flat ironed hair. The name of the game was the more hair the better.

Yes, indeed it is a little gross, men grew facial hair in all shapes and sizes in this decade! What's that? You want to stay?

This top with its orange fur, glamorous sheen, and fringe this top will be perfect for banging that tambourine. With the striped bell bottoms, you'll feel like the foxiest lady in town. Well, we have to go back to the future now. Beware the high waisted jeans of the eighties! Remember to invest in internet technology! Goodbye! You look great, goodbye!
What do you think of when you think of the 1920's? You might think of that iconic curled bob that was so popular with all of the flappers. Or maybe those swanky speakeasies come to mind, hidden in caves or behind seemingly innocent restaurants. Whatever you think of when you think about the twenties it's no doubt that it was an age of luxury.The 1920's were full of strange activities. Public entertainment included strange activities like flappers sitting at the top of flag poles for long hours and barnstorming: an activity that includes chasing an airplane down in an open-top car, grabbing onto a ladder attached to the plane, and holding on while the plane did aerial tricks. With these crazy antics, it's no wonder why people still talk about the wild parties of the roaring twenties. And with alcohol being illegal, the parties in speakeasies seemed more intriguing and mysterious. It's also no wonder that some of the most luxurious dresses were made for these legendary parties. Flappers weren't afraid of flair. This dress would be admired by any party goer. It's detailed with golden embroidery, sequins, and long black fringe. With a bob accented with the feathered headband, a flapper would look like she's ready for the talkies.This gorgeous ensemble will make you ready for a night at the speakeasy, ready to break out those jazzy dance moves you've been holding in all these years. You might be dressing up for Halloween or maybe you're hosting a 20's themed party, either way, when you're trying out you shimmy with the fringe and the sparkly fabric maybe you'll understand why people still call the 1920's the Gilded Age.
Back in Al Capone’s days, it took a lot more than running a successful bootlegging empire to become a legendary mob boss. You had to stand out from the competition, act like a gentleman (at least in public), turn heads when you walked in the room (courtrooms especially), and know how to make a memorable first impression. In other words, you had to have style. Guys like Al Capone and Bugsy Siegel understood that, and it’s probably why you didn’t even have to look them up on Wikipedia when we mentioned them. They’re practically immortal.While we can’t exactly recommend them as role models, you can still take a page from their fashion playbook and become a made man with the wide stripe plus size gangster costume. Whether you want to be the don at the next meeting of the Five Families or just the Halloween party (option B would probably be safer), there’ll be no mistaking you for the boss of bosses in this slick 1920s-style suit. Made by us, it’s a classic two-piece with matching pants and jacket (double-breasted, the preferred cut of a true wiseguy), and a fearsome combination of white pinstripes on black cloth. The pants also feature an elastic waist that makes this getup easy to get on, because mobsters are used to getting what they want right away.If you’re an aspiring don, the gangster costume is a suit you can’t refuse. Just don’t forget to wear a ring so your associates have something to kiss when they call you “godfather”!

Are you a fan of the good ol' days? When swimming meant a full day at the beach, packed picnics, and old cars that were crank-started? We miss those days too. Yeah, okay, so we can't technically miss those days because we weren't there or anything, but we still like the idea of it! Romantic beach days with loose, stylish swimsuits? Yes, please!Back in the early 1900s, swimsuits were more like pajamas. No uncomfortable straps or spandex, just loose fitting clothes to go take a dip in. Some had bright classy stripes. Some had sleeves and some didn't. Swimmers might wear hats to protect their hair, or maybe carry a cute little parasol to help shade them from the sun. Yeah, the more we talk about it, the more we want a vintage beach party. Would you be interested?If you were interested in coming, you'd of course have to dress appropriately.
