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. Add some rose-colored glasses and some clothes that don't match, and you'll be ready to let the rainbows flow free!

You didn't necessarily want to be called a "valley girl" in the 1980s because that probably meant you came off a bit ditzy. But before that, it was common for the stereotyped term to be applied to any upper middle class girl in the Los Angeles and surrounding commuter areas that followed the fashions of the day. This was a branding that tried to capture the attitudes of that time, namely of materialism, consumption, and New Wave style.By 1983, the valley girl look was immortalized with a movie of the same name, and this fad really held strong in music and popular culture until its culmination in a movie called Clueless. Shopping at the mall, freaking out about boys, and tanning were all a part of this lifestyle, and slowly began to fade away with the end of the 90s. Slowly a life of boredom and indifference would replace the materialism of the valley girl. But we still remember them today in many ways, including with this Adult Valley Girl Costume.This costume is 100% polyester with a turquoise top with attached black and pink tulle skirt. There is black and pink pop art printed on the front. The black leggings have turquoise lettering on them. It also comes with a shiny pink scrunchy belt with a green plastic buckle, and light pink fishnet glovette. Add a pair of pink heels to complete the retro costume.

Rhythm Nation It's the 1980s, baby! Social media, Tide Pod challenges, and viral videos haven't even been invented yet and you have nothing to worry about except what rad song to play next for your aerobics workout. Maybe when you're done, you'll head over to the barber shop to get your mullet retouched or you'll hold a boombox over your head outside your crush's house as a dramatically romantic gesture (as long as her neighbors don't report you for disturbing the peace).

She'll be so impressed, you might even convince her to go for a drive. That would be righteous!
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!

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.
Valley girls have taken a back seat as of late. At the moment, feminism and positive body image are all the rage, which is great, but can we admit a little secret? Don't judge, but we have a bad case of nostalgia for the bubblegum-smacking, leg warmer-wearing, scrunchie-loving valley girls of the 1980's. If teasing your hair to look as puffy as possible and wearing a sturdy pair of shoulder pads under a blazer sounds like a dream come true for you too, then we think we have a costume that will make you like, totally scream. Our exclusive 80's valley girl costume compiles all of the decade's most popular trends in one tubular costume, creating the quintessential valley girl. This ensemble features different neon colors, zebra print and billowy sleeves.

Of course, this costume only grants you your valley girl status for one night. Come morning, you'll have to put your big girl pants back on and do whatever you can to promote women's lib and gender equality, but before reality sets back in, enjoy wearing your rad threads while dancing your heart out to the groovy beats of The Bangles. Every once in a while, all girls need an evening filled with hair-teasing, overt ditziness, and repeatedly swiping daddy's credit card. Like... duh!
Wearin' FlowersIf you're going to San Francisco, then wear some flowers in your hair. If you're going to the discotheque, boy, you'd better have some flowers all over your shirt! You dig?

Imagine if you're starting an organized crime business. What's the first few things that would be going through your head? Well, for starters, you've got to make sure that you have your crime routes planned. Move product at the right time, making sure you're undetected and can get it where it needs to go quickly. Maybe think about having a plant within the police force, someone that can tell you what they're investigating and how to stay one step ahead of them. Then, you're gonna need the right crew. You don't want a bunch of babies that would turn tail the moment they get busted, you need loyal goons that don't crack under pressure.But perhaps the most important thing in organized crime...the dress code. Think about it, when's the last time you saw a mafia organization that didn't dress well? Every gang has their dress code, and the fellas in New York and Chicago were no exception. So don't plan to get into organized crime before you've got a solid dress code in place. For that matter, don't even think about going out for Halloween this year unless you've got a solid dress code. Because, if the criminals can dress well, why aren't you? We'd suggest this Deluxe Pin Stripe Gangster Suit for your next costume party...The suit is made from polyester material, and features a pin-striped double breasted jacket with four buttons and two faux pockets. The pin-striped pants have an elastic waist. Be sure to add a tommy gun and oxford shoes to complete this retro gangster look this Halloween!
What if there was a costume that could mix your desire for something dapper, dangerous, and daring? What if you could create a persona that would live in infamy? What if it would also (bonus!) make you look really, really good?Well, hold on tight to that Tommy gun, buddy, because we’re in on a little secret that’s bound to make you famous with your crew: this Men’s Wide Pin Stripe Gangster Costume. This getup is timeless and tailored and totally powerful, a look bound to have you riding “shotgun” whenever you’re wearing it. No doubt, when you step out of the car and into the party wearing this snazzy suit, you’ll command all the attention. Don’t be upset if a few guests cower in the corner or peek out from behind the curtains; after all, word of your reputation has preceded you and the mere sight of you may make some people squirm.And what a sight it is! Your costume’s classy jacket and pants make (crime) waves with their matching wide pinstripes. You can pair it with a black shirt, white tie, and wingtips, or come up with you own cool combo. Top it with a fedora, tommy gun, and maybe even a (fake) scar or two on your face, just so folks fully understand that you are not to be messed with. And if anyone snitches that the scars aren’t real, well...we know just who they’ll be answering to.
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.
Darling, looking great is all in the details. A cute black dress is a good start, but accessories, darling. That's what sets a apart the flapper from your every day kind of Gibson Girl. Gloves, pearls, let's not forget a feather or two, and of course, a mink fur wrap. Nothing says high fashion and toasting life quite like draping yourself in the luxurious feel of the softest fur in the entire world. Of course, harming a real animal just for fashion is purely barbaric, so we thought of something better. This one is made of synthetic materials, so no animal has to be harmed to steal the attention in any room. The flappers were rebels of the day celebrating after their activism finally gave women the right to vote so we figured they would approve of this stance. This goes perfectly with your flapper dress, or any aristocrat costume! Be sure to check them out too while you're here.

Thing #2: she can make flower garlands to pass out to her classmates or fellow trick-or-treaters. Spreading love like this will surely make your next lemonade stand a smash hit.
One of the best parts about cartoons is their exaggerated features. The unusually big noses, the humanized animals (say a mouse who walks on two feet), the silly colors, and the stylized faces. And of course, just about all of them have giant feet.We're not exactly sure why they have giant feet, we just know that they do. Like clown feet. Big, bulbous toe-sies (it's a wonder more of them don't trip). And, if you're dressing up as your favorite cartoon character, such ridiculous feet can be difficult to find. Well, look no further! Here is our Adult Cartoon Feet. They're white foam shoe covers that slip on over regular footwear to give you that cartoonish-ly large foot effect! Now, just be careful that you don't trip! ... Unless that's in character. Then tumble away!
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. It also comes with a groovy flower headband and belt set. Your girl will be ready to rock out in no 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.
JUST A FEW GENERATIONAL CHANGESFunny how a little thing like a few decades can dynamically change style and expectations. Last generation's tweet was likened to an adorable yellow bird constantly trying to escape and outsmart a speech-impaired house cat. Now, of course, it has grown from two characters to up to 240 if you've managed to be famous enough. And, there are plenty of other examples. Geeks and jocks are now often the same person! Of course, the jock and their sports gear and athletic mindset have certainly undergone a few changes, too. Take a quick Marty McFly style hop back to the '80s and we'd see the style for jock was probably a bit closer to what we'd now call a disc jockey. (Then again, recognition of CDs are probably going to be vanishing by the time we've finished describing the glory that you're about to awaken in your home!) DESIGN & DETAILSBefore it is too late, hop back to the past and show your kiddo how fun the '80s were with this Boy's 1980s Jock Costume.

Naturally, no 80s look could be complete without the featured terry cloth sweatband!AN EXCITING GUESSING GAMELet your kid have a great thrill with this trendy look from over thirty years back. This stylish 1980s Jock Costume will give a splash of color and confident style that will have all the neighborhood either grinning with nostalgia or wide-eyed with curiosity. Either way, we're talking about an epic time!

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.

People used to be pretty skeptical about exchanging love instead of cold, hard cash. They talked about love like it was some kind of flower (not exactly legal tender). They complained about being unable to pay the bills, no matter how much affection they felt for another human being. They bounced a few checks, so to speak. Some of the rougher crowd used a lot of complicated metaphors involving games of poker and the luck of the draw. Let's just say that their romantic enterprises didn't seem to offset their gambling debts.To those people, it must seem like we're living in an impossible future—a future filled with gleaming Gold Love Necklaces like this one. How did we get here? Nobody seems to remember. What does it mean? Don't look at us: we're just humble purveyors of fine Halloween costumes. Since so many people are still singing about love, money, gold chains, and hardscrabble origins, we can only assume that this neckless is timeless, valuable, and possibly very useful. But it's up to you to decide exactly how it should be used.

There is nothing more gangster than violins. Or, at least in the 1950s there was an attitude of cool rebel in the musicians who played at jazz joints.

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”!

The roaring twenties, an epic era when women were cutting that long Victorian hair, snipping off their heavily boned corsets, and saying a not so fond fair well to the strict code of conduct that society had placed on them for ages. A time of beautiful shining Rolls-Royce cars, gorgeous art deco buildings, and lavish parties. For a decade that outlawed booze, these folks sure knew how to party!Maybe it's the sneaking around that made those all night speakeasy dance parties so memorable through the ages. After all, we hardly have to walk down an alley and use a secret knock to get a cocktail these days... maybe that would make going out a little more exciting! But really, everything from the cocktails to the way women were wearing their hair contribute to the history of the era. Understated was not a popular look at this time, it was all about texture, sparkle, and movement, thus the obsession with fringe.So, fringe you say? This Swanky Flapper costume would go over quite well at a roaring twenties bash! Those flappers would flip over the awesome amount of fringe featured on both the hem and sleeves of this dress.

Whether you're dressing up for Halloween or you're attending a roaring twenties costume party, this costume is sure to be a hit. Hope you're ready to shimmy, after all, you can't let all that fringe go to waste!
