Rap for the people by the peopleOhh, baby baby! Remember rap back in the early nineties? The music genre was brand spanking new. The songs were always framed with smooth dialogue and a little bit of light-hearted storyline. The music videos were filled with confident attitudes, plaid, and stone-washed jean jackets. Videos were key, teens would set aside time to catch the newest music video on programmed television. It's hard to imagine doing that in this convenient time of youtube when any song we can think of is right at our fingertips. At first, rap was only for men who saw themselves as tough guys. Women didn't really have a public place of the pie. Then, ladies got wise and realized if they stuck together and flaunted their skills, the people would listen. After all, rap isn't just for men. Rap is for everyone. Fun Details and DesignOur designers were influenced by the top rap girl groups of the nineties when they put together this 80s hip hop ensemble. The unitard is layered under a lightweight jacket that proudly states, "Mix maker". You'll look like you're ready for your MTV debut in the brushed gold-colored chain and the stretchy unitard. What's a nineties costume without plenty of spandex?Whatta Mighty Good CostumeWhen you're dressed your Push It superstar costume you'll push limits and make instant memories. Get together with two of your girls and people will instantly get transported to a time when people worried about getting batteries for their boomboxes and taping the newest music video on TV. And hey, in the meantime go ahead and add some of these songs to your modern day playlist. Cause these hits were hits for a reason. We might have left the mixtapes and battery operated boomboxes in the distant past that doesn't mean we should leave nineties rap in the past. Seems to us the beats are still pretty fresh!
Do you ever just feel like gettin' down? That's a weird question to ask these days, and will probably invite lots of confused questions. ("Down where?", "How do we get down there?", "Is there free wi-fi?", etc) But, if you hear that question and immediately start feelin' the groove, then this far out Feelin' Groovy Disco Dress is the perfect costume for you!Back in the funky 1970's, everybody who was anybody knew that you didn't have a good time by asking too many questions and being a buzzkill. You just went with the flow, and let the music take you away! That's why back in those days, if someone asked you if you wanted to "get down" you either jumped right in and started dancing, or you said "No thank you, I would not like to get down." Okay, our memories of the 70's are a little fuzzy (they were the 70's, after all) so maybe it didn't happen quite like that. But we know there definitely were bright colors, flashy lights, and groovy tunes, which are things we can all still get into!Whether you're gettin' down under a disco ball, havin' your mind blown by a laser show, or hangin' out with your other groovy pals, you'll look outta sight in this flared psychedelic mini dress! It also comes with a matching hair tie, so all you need to add is a pair of groovy go-go boots and some jangling jewelry, and you'll be ready to get down tonight!
People have a nostalgia for the fifties, that much is certain. There's the question of why. We could say it's the fashion: full skirts, peter pan collars, and red lips. It would be understandable for anyone to be nostalgic about those smashing ensembles. But, no we don't think it's only the fashion. Maybe it's the music, all bubble gum pop and hip rocking swarthiness that would be understandable too. So, we're pretty sure we're on something. What do people picture when they think of the fifties? That's right, a diner with people sipping on shakes and Cokes and eating juicy burgers and French fries. Those diners with their red vinyl booths and chrome exteriors reeled in the imaginations of generations to come. So, people came to these picturesque places in shining cars with dramatic giant hoods and sculpted wings on the trunk. In their red leather interiors, people would pull up and order these classic foods from the friendly carhop, listening to Elvis playing over the loud speaker. If you want to be part of the most nostalgic part of the fifties than you just might want to dress as the classic car hop. These servers in red and white striped dresses and white starched aprons, cuffs, and collars brought trays of happiness to the people waiting in cars. Top it all off with the jaunty cap and you're ready to bound down memory lane, maraschino cherry in hand.

Far out, girl!So, your daughter and her gal pals are ready to pile into the minivan and take a road trip to Woodstock, eh? Groovy! But there are definitely a few things you should make sure she doesn’t forget…1. Bug spray. We’re talking about three days of music and camping in the country. If she wants to be able to enjoy Jimi Hendrix or the Who, she’s got to be able to hear them over the buzzing of nearby mosquitoes.2. Water. There will certainly be plenty of other… substances… available, but we both know those are no good for a growing (underage) girl. Make sure your little hippy brings plenty of water so she can stay hydrated. She doesn’t want to get heat stroke while listening to Canned Heat.3. Toilet paper. That one is pretty self-explanatory but painfully easy to forget. There will be more than 400,000 people there, and only 600 toilets. Enough said.4. A boss outfit so she can fit in with all the other beautiful people.We don’t sell practical things here, like water or toilet paper, but for the last one, we’ve definitely got you covered with our Girl's Peace Out Hippie Costume. The psychedelic patterned shirt comes with an attached fringe vest on the front, while the sweet bell bottom jeans have design cutouts on the sides.

The alley is dark, it doesn't look like much back there. A cat, or what you hope is a cat, skitters away from you as you step, tentatively, away from the sidewalk and into the gloom. There's one light above a door at the end of the alley and you hurry toward it, your heels clicking on the paving stones. You knock two hard knocks and three light on the door, just like you were told to do. A handsome man in a fedora answers and as he opens the door you hear it and smell it all at once. The trumpeting of the brass band, the smoke, the laughter, the magic of the speakeasy is floating up from the staircase, just for you. Wouldn't it be great to be a part of the golden era that was the 20's? Those ladies sure knew how to dress. They had thrown off their corsets for the ever fabulous sheath dresses that we still love today. The style back then was all about texture: beading, fringe, and feathers. All that fringe was really something once you were shimmying to jazz music out on the dance floor. Imagine that, after ladies had been wearing corsets in sealed up drawing rooms less than ten years earlier. Flappers were making up for lost time. These ladies knew how to razzle dazzle. Bring the magic of the speakeasies back to life in this royal purple flapper dress. When you put on this fabulous ensemble you'll be ready for all that jazz. Sure, this flapper's looking great in purple but tonight she's going to paint the town red.

Upgrade Your Shimmy StatusFlappers had the right idea. The best way to get out on the dance floor? Let your clothing do the dancing for you. Flapper fashion was made for shimmying.

Everyone knew that you were on top of your game when you strolled through the streets jamming some Grandmaster Flash on your boombox. The second reason for carrying it on your shoulder was the fact that you could aim the sounds.

Just blow it up, place it on your shoulder and then you’re ready to reenact the best decade in the entire history of mankind.

Doesn't it seem unfair that the people of the fifties used to go to dances almost weekly while high schoolers these days only have three to four dances a year? Old timers are eager to criticize today's youth for their lack of formal dance training but of course, kid's aren't going to learn the fox trot when they only get together once every quarter. The thing is, it's pretty fun to know a couple dance moves, especially when it comes to swing dancing! While shimming and waving your hands in the air under the speckled lights of the dance floor is just fine, the people of the fifties had their public dances down to an art. An onlooker could watch couples spinning each other with ease and grace, shuffling together in group dance-offs, even flipping each other into the air, that is if they could keep themselves from joining in! With all that flipping, it's no wonder that kids were expected to take off their hard-soled shoes, no one wants a Mary Jane to the face when they're pulling off a White Russian aerial.

This ensemble has an electric blue poodle skirt with a tulle hem that matches the polka dot shirt with a peter pan collar and cuffed sleeves.

What a great time the 1950's must have been! Ask most people who lived through that time and they'll tell you about the weekly dances they attended. No wonder that generation seems to have some great moves. From sock hops in school gyms to hoe-downs in country barns, people sure knew how to have fun! The clothes of that time were made for swing dancing. This was an era when the poodle skirt came into fashion.

Too StrongStrongman is more than a title; it’s a lifestyle. What does it take to live life like one? Well, first, consuming a lot of raw eggs and spinach right away in the morning. The more the better, honestly. Next, some form of weightlifting is a must to convert all those yolks into biceps or whatever. Finally, use your new muscles to carefully sculpt the proper facial hair: most likely a thick mustache that curls up like horns.Design & DetailsPerfect for a circus-themed event or Halloween party, our exclusive Plus Size Mens Vintage Strongman costume will fit all your muscles and gain you instant respect in gyms around the world, we think.

Pair the ensemble with a thick black mustache, wig, and barbell, and you'll haunt the dreams of scrawny dudes everywhere.Sideshow StyleToday’s 24-hour gyms have nothing on the strongmen stomping grounds of the past. Getting buff these days seems a tad boring compared to, say, improving grip by lifting heavy books one finger at a time. Photographic evidence shows a concerning affinity for medicine balls, too. If only we could get our hands on their regimens… How they chose to show off said muscles is much more a matter of public record. Like swinging three kegs of beer by their neck or lifting a 2,800 lb. anchor from some crowded bay. We, uh, hope they practiced good posture because our backs hurt just writing that sentence. Ouch.

Everyone knows that buying the brand new whip is baller, but it’s not forward-thinking - that thing is gonna depreciate by half the minute you drive it off the lot. And houses are great - property is important! - but there also things about of your control, like that crazy neighbor who doesn’t take care of his lawn and is therefore causing everyone else’s resale values to plummet. And Wall Street? Maaan, don’t even get us started on those fly but sly double-talkers! So when it comes to keeping our hard-earned royalties safe and secure, we like to invest it in the most stable market there is - gold! Yeah, that’s right - we know that if you invest in a chain, you'll floss your stacks for waaaayyyy longer. And you want that cred, son! So show off that wealth with this Big Link Gold Chain Necklace. Add some bling to your costume with this big link gold chain necklace (made of plastic, just for the record - can’t be no geek off the street dropping them beats who gets beat so ruffians can get their hands on the real ’n’ sweet!). The gold links span 28" in circumference, and the links come apart for fitting. In Big Link Gold Chain Necklace, you’ll be lookin’ so fly this Halloween that all them haters are gonna die!

Glitz and GlamorThe glitz! The glamor! The jazz! Lots of decades had those things, but none of them jumped and jived like the 1920s.

Because the school's hosting a Sock Hop party!That's right, they're flying back to the fantabulous era of the 1950s when Sock Hops were all the rage. So named, of course, because they were held on the courts and cafeterias of the school, where the kids would leave their shoes aside to boogie the night away in socks!

An Amythest Adventure!Every story needs to begin with a compelling scene. Well, imagine a smoky speakeasy, hidden beneath a simple jewelry shop. The shopkeep tends in simple baubles and faux pearls, but they're perfect for the dancers that twirl on the stage to the sounds of the sweet jazz music. Of course, no story is worth telling without a hero that is about to start on a quest. All that begins with the gleaming amethyst... but we're not talking about a bauble! The Amethyst is the hero, herself!

There's no stopping this flood of modern forward thinking girls flowing into the big city. Honestly, they get younger and younger each year! That's what those big city yokels will exclaim when they see your little flapper jumping off the steam train in Grand Central Station, valise clasped in hand. There are certain signs a parent can look out for to tell if they're raising a flapper. One sure sign is your daughter perks up when she hears jazz, especially trumpet solos. You can also tell if she has '20s tendencies if she uses strange slang. When you accuse her of stealing the last cookie does she say something like, "No, I'm a Patsy, see?" or when you give her the last cookie she might respond, "Well ain't that the frog's eyebrows!". If she says either of these things she may not only be a flapper but a bootlegger as well. The last way you might guess where she's headed is her dance moves. Is she unusually good at kicking her legs and rocking her jazz hands simultaneously? If so, her fate is sealed. When your daughter is destined to be a flapper, there's no use fighting it. The life of a flapper is pretty great anyways. She'll be independent, she'll have a great wardrobe, and her phonograph will always being playing the freshest jazz tunes. You can be the one to nudge her life in the right direction with this classy fringed dress and sequined headband. Before you know it she'll be teaching you the Charleston.
In it for the Long RunYou've always wanted a job that allowed you to travel. There are just so many places to go! Little did you know, that was a secret perk for your brand new gig as a bank robber. You did your due diligence when you went into the bank. You covered your face with a chic bandana and gave all your orders in a French accent to give the police a nice big red herring. And that worked for the first couple hits. But when you're a bank robber, you've just got to keep moving. You don't mind. So far you've stayed in a cozy mountain cabin in Idaho, a bungalow outside of Las Vegas, and uncountable fine hotels along the west coast. Sure, you might be on the run but that doesn't mean you can't enjoy the journey!Design & DetailsWant a style that's both vintage and villainous? Our in house designers were sure to add plenty of care to keep this Made by US Bonnie the Bandit costume both comfortable and flattering. The high-waisted skirt looks like it's straight out of a vintage photo with its flared hem and classic herringbone pattern. The blouse buttons up the front and has subtly puffed three-quarter sleeves. The look is polished off with a beret and a scarf that's been specially designed just for this costume. Hooligan HeartthrobsSome couples just can't stay in the lines. They've gotta break the rules! Pair this Bonnie costume with one of our gangster or mob boss costumes to make this a couple's affair. Want to make this costume picture perfect? Keep your loot in a bank money bag to make sure a purse won't interrupt your get-away. And if you really want to make your entrance and exit memorable, drop fake money wherever you go as if your pockets are overflowing with illicit cash. That's just one way to lay down some criminal charm!

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.
The PastYou missed out, man. The 60s were great. You could let your hair grow all the way down to your butt and it was all cool, man. You could just walk barefoot to the park and listen to some psychedelic rock and roll, man. You could, like, just feel the loving vibe floating through the air. And you could, like, just put on your shades and just chill. You could even just hang out in the basement and put a good record on as you just melded in the guitar riffs that tickled your ears if you felt like it. Those were some groovy times, man. If only there were, like, some kind of time machine…But wait, man. Why does all that have to end? You could, like, bring back the 60s, man. Whoa. Like, that’s a really great idea. You just need to start with a really cool and colorful outfit for a 60s mens Halloween costume, like this Hazy Hippie costume.Design & DetailsThe best part of this costume is its simplicity.

Everyone says that parenthood is one big party. Right? Isn't that what everyone says? Well, maybe parenting a toddler isn't the equivalent of going to a 24/7 discothèque but you day to day with your little nipper could be compared to living inside a disco. Much like the inside of an early eighties dance club, life with your disco kid can be loud, messy, and busiest in the wee hours of the morning. Just think, when your dancing baby wakes you up at three o'clock in the morning you don't even have to dress up for the action anymore. No, you don't have to get a perm or put on your platform shoes to hear the soulful wailing of this infant star, just warm up some milk and hold on for dear life because if there's one thing disco taught us, it's all about staying alive. To make your postmidnight parties more of a ball you could always add a little more sparkle in the mix. If the baby doesn't feel like sleeping, might as well make baby the life of the party. All you need to do is slide this disco ball over that wild child's head! Maybe the baby is still yowling but at the mom and dad are having more fun when the disco kid is in action. The shiny globe makes having a festive attitude irresistible. You never know, maybe that groovy feeling will even spread to the kiddo. One thing is for sure, before walking this baby is going to be moon walking.
Isn't it kind of crazy how a thing is maybe only really a thing for three or four years, but it’s a such a huge thing during that time that its influence ends up sticking around forever?For instance, take Studio 54: Founded and created by Steve Rubell and Ian Schrager in 1977, it quickly became one of the most famous - and famously hard to get into - clubs in America, thanks to their celebrity clientele, elaborate parties, and look-the-other-way policy in regards to the lavish excess (psst: drugs) of the ‘70s. It was so successful, in fact, that both Rubell and Schrader were convicted on charges of tax evasion (In December of ’78, Rubell was famously quoted in the New York newspapers as saying that Studio 54 had made $7 million in its first year and that "only the Mafia made more money". This, not surprisingly, got the attention of the IRS, and they later found that Rubell and Schrader had skimmed $2.5 million). The club was sold in 1980 to Mark Fleischman, who struggled to replicate Rubell and Schrader’s success (it also didn’t help that disco also basically died in 1980…thanks, “Disco Duck”!). So really, when you think about it, Club 54 was really only a huge deal for about three years!And yet the fascination with it - and the era it belonged to - still endures to this day. Take, for instance, this Women's Disco Diva Costume...one look at this halter style jumpsuit with its shiny gold metallic fabric and bell-bottom pants, and you'll be ready to shake your groove thang and do the Hustle out onto the nightclub dance floor! Add some gold metallic platform heels to really get that Boogie on!
Ready to make the great pilgrimage to San Francisco? Way back in the 60s, the counterculture of peace and love was all about packing up a van with as many other hippies as you could and heading to that exact place. On the way, they were sure to have some great pit stops where they enjoyed chill music, campfires, and braiding flowers into their long hair and beards. Those were the times, weren’t they? If only we could hop into our time traveling Volkswagen van and enjoy it all over again. It’d probably be a little better on the joints to be forty years younger too! While you’re packing up to head back a few decades, be sure to put this wonderful Daisy Flower Headband on. It was all the rage back then, and we’d love to see it make a comeback. Not much of a time traveler? These are fantastic for your costume, or for the next musical festival you’ve been excited to attend since you heard about it!
It's been said that a zoot suit is the perfect outfit for a self-made man. We're not exactly sure why that is, but we wanted to find out. We thought it would be as simple as tracking down a couple of self-made men and asking them what they thought of our exclusive Black Zoot Suit Costume, so we went around asking all the guys in the office how each of them came to be. And we got some great answers. But none of them helped us understand this slick-looking costume we'd just created.We heard a lot about when two people love each other very much, and a couple of forged in the fires of this or that legendary volcano. We even had one guy tell us he was pretty sure that his parents were not of this world, but he refused to elaborate. Not a single one of us said anything that could be construed as I made me myself, except for the guy who said he didn't how how he came to be at all. And we're just going to have to put brackets around that response for now.Based on our research, we've concluded that a self-made man prefers not to answer annoying personal questions. So the snappy suspenders of a suit like this lets everybody know that he takes care of business, and the stylish bagginess of the pants and coat shows them that he likes to do it on his own terms. A carefully-chosen fedora, watch chain, and pair of dapper spats are all he needs to fill in the blanks!
