We're calling it: in a thousand years, archaeologists are probably going to think that Marilyn was the name of every blonde female starlet from the 1950s and 60s. Along those lines, they'll probably think that every Marilyn always wore a white halter dress like this, with a gravity-defying skirt. And in a way, they'll be right.Because certain images are bigger than a particular actress, a particular film, or a particular moment in time. For instance, the scene that inspired this classic costume has already been made into postage stamps and supersized works of sculpture. It's been referenced and parodied to the point that it's practically its own thing! All across the globe, whenever anybody sees a tasteful white dress attempting to lift itself away from the shapely figure of an attractive blonde lady, they hear a little ding of recognition in their brain—even if they can't remember the name of the movie it's from. That's what makes this little number such an applause-worthy choice for a star-powered Halloween costume!
*Sigh* Some people just don't know how to act these days. In the golden age of the twenties, there was etiquette for every activity. While it was okay to go on a picnic, you had to make sure you never forgot your manners. If you wanted to maintain your spot in society you had to make sure you used the right fork, spoke at the right volume, and didn't make noises of any sort while eating. This 1920s socialite would struggle with finding any semblance of high society these days. The raised hemlines of her time were one thing but the torn jeans and tennis shoes of our time would send this classy lady searching for the nearest flask of hooch! While other flappers were rouging their knees and doing the Charleston this lovely lady was leaning with one arm on the fireplace of the drawing room in an established estate, dangling her cigarette holder aloft, and judging anyone in the vicinity who was low-born enough to have fun. Don't feel bad for her! When you're this classy just waking up is its own kind of thrill. If you're looking for a grand ensemble for a murder mystery dinner, roaring twenties dinner party, or simply something classy for that Halloween get together, you'll be stunning in this ivory satin dress. The cat's meow will have nothing on you in the lavish faux fur-trimmed velvet jacket. Topped with the dramatic headpiece you'll be ready to climb that social ladder. Wait, did that servant just try to serve you Moscato? Turn it away, ladies of your caliber drink nothing but Champagne!
Every once in a while don't you want to take a nice stroll down memory lane! It's a pretty great lane. It's lined with picket fences, friendly ladies watering flowers, and two little girls playing with a fluffy puppy. This lane is free from the imperfections of the past: no more crabby neighbors telling you to get off their lawn or muggy days or cold nights for that matter. While you're walking past the people rocking on their porches, drinking milkshakes without guilt you just might wonder, how you might become part of this wonderful place. The thing is, fitting into Memory Lane is all about that clean, sweet aesthetic. Take the music of that sock hop you might be attending for instance. You're not going to get any funky beats here, oh no! You'll be dancing to the sweet tunes of bubblegum pop, there's nothing else suitable for those hand jive skills of yours. It's easy to get along in this time just pull up that ponytail high, pull on those bobby socks, and stay away from that rebel without a cause, no matter how shiny his motorcycle is! You'll be ready to doo-wop in this full poodle skirt in a bright and cheerful blue. You'll feel sweet as those chrome diner Cokes in the polka-dot blouse with its peter pan collar and neat structured sleeve. Finish the ensemble with the matching scarf and you'll find swing dancing has never been so much fun! Let's just see if you can conquer that Titanic flip once and for all!

After all, isn’t getting attention why you’re at this party, anyway? So drape this 6' long 40g Black Boa, made of dyed marabou feathers, across those bare arms of yours and get ready to tickle your own fancy!

Festival FamousIt's hard to stand out at a music festival. Despite what we're selling we don't believe becoming festival famous is about what you wear. Like most things in life, it's all about attitude. So if you're heading back to Woodstock in a time machine, remember to pack an ensemble that'll put you in touch with your free spirit.

You don't want to be stuck in some stuffy faux fur jacket or hindered by a tight bandana top. Let your dance moves fly when you're rocking this groovy hippie costume that's directly inspired by the fashions of Woodstock!Details & DesignHere at Halloweencostumes.com we don't settle for standard looks. That's why our Made by Us always stand out in a crowd.

The high necked top is attached to long enough skirt to remain appropriate for a public decades-themed party but swings enough that it'll make you want to keep dancing all night long. The high-quality costume is topped with a matching headband for a look that looks both timeless and ready to party. The Who's WhoAre you ready to jam out to classic tunes straight from the hippie era? We're sure you'll feel right at home, moving free in this ensemble. Polish your free-spirit persona with a pair of moccasins or go-go boots, anything you can dance in. Throw on a pair of aviators, wear your hair down, and throw on a pair of oversized hoop earrings.

Oh darling, you look simply marvelous! Let's do the Charleston. Just take your hands like this and your feet like that and... Okay, we may not know how to do the Charleston, but we do know you will be the most glamorous gal at the party with this flapper fashion. Nothing matches flapper fashion either. What other fashion gets to combine so many awesome details? Want a feather boa draped across your shoulders? Flapper will do it. Want to wear elegant elbow-high gloves? There's a flapper for that. Want a feather hairband so that you're doing some literal peacocking? This costume features a dress with a lush fabric with a subtle floral pattern. It also has Art Deco-esque jewel detailing along the neckline. The beading falls long and lush around the hem with beads and sequins. You'll love the show-stopping headpiece with jewels on the front and a plume in the middle. Just imagine the zzuzzing you'll do walking about the room. You know zzuzzing, right? You walk and the dress sounds like "zzuzz, zzuzz, zzuzz". Probably. We're terrible with onomatopoeia. Just trust us that you'll enjoy the sweet sounds of your dress twirling about and sparkling up a room.Speaking of sparks, how about flapper cigarette holders? Could they be any longer? It's like, hey lady, if you want the cigarette to be so far away from you, just don't have one! We're just kidding of course. They used those long cigarette holders in the 1920s because those boas and feathers are highly flammable. Yup. One errant hot piece of ash (we said ash) and the whole party could go up like a tinder box. No, not tinder like you use. Tinder refers to... you know what, nevermind. Go do the Charleston and have some fun. Don't forget to zzuzz!

Instead, consider becoming instantly glamorous by slinking a classic boa around your shoulders. It's worked for decades and it'll work for you! This particular kind isn't made of feathers so you don't have to worry about leaving them drifting about as you shimmy through your lounge dance routine. That not only makes the chickens happy but it's much less itchy on your skin, as well. Pair this with long gloves and a red lip and people will think you've had a visit from the Glaminator!
Most people know by now that the Roaring 20s flappers were responsible for revving up a whole new era in women’s fashion, freedoms, and all-around fabulousness. But did you know that they also inspired countless generations of girls to come? Let your little one catch “flapper fever” and she’ll never be the same. We mean that in a good way. Obviously, there are some flapper behaviors that she will have to wait to indulge in, like sipping a sloe gin fizz down at the local speakeasy. But there are some flapper-ish customs that she can embrace at any age: Jazz appreciation, perfecting her Charleston, and obviously, the capturing the era’s iconic style! Your child will look just like a jazz-time honey in this exclusive Child Gold and Black Fringe Flapper Costume! This stunning 1920s look is bound to make her dance with delight the moment she slips it on. Great for theme events and dance recitals, this ensemble comes with a classy shift dress covered in sparkling gold sequins and boasting six rows of festive fringe! The feathered headband is also included, but you’ll need to pick up some black ballet flats and a fab feather boa to complete your little lady’s lavish look. She may not be quite ready to live the full-on flapper lifestyle, but she can still draw inspiration from the movement and do her part to look the part.
Ring the BellsThe original bell bottoms were not invented in the 1970s like most people think. That was an attempt at stealing the awesome style from the early Americans in New England, and it would have worked were it not for the wily investigations of our journalists. What they discovered was almost too amazing to believe!They found that the original bell bottoms were actually made with real, several hundred-pound bells. In fact, the liberty bell was once attached to a pair that was worn by George Washington himself in some of the early battles of the Revolutionary War. It was cracked when he busted a move so sweet that the English were forced to back all the way off the dance floor, back to Boston. Well, it’s either that, or our investigative journalist Dave has some explaining to do…FunkaliciousIn any case, this Women’s Disco Diva Costume pays homage to the clothing of the funkiest time in history in style. The retro pattern on the jumpsuit and the crazy cool colors work together to take you right back to the good ole days of disco. Get ready to do the macarena under the neon lights when you throw this costume on!Get Your Groove OnIf you’ve got disco fever, then this costume just might be the cure! You’ll be partying like it’s 1969 in this Women’s Disco Diva Costume. Keep on steppin’, my man, and bust some far out moves for us. It’ll be a slammin’ hit!
Some costumes need a little something extra for comfort, for style, and to complete your desired look. These black shiny leggings with a faux front fly, for instance, will let you shake and shimmy with comfort and ease. They are a great alternative to wearing a dress because they're eye-catching, chic, and trendy. Not to mention... they're perfect for dancing the night away! You can create a variety of stylish costumes using these liquid latex leggings. For example, create a Pink Ladies costume, a cat costume, or a pop star costume with the help of this one piece of apparel!

We recommend you leave a shocking impression when you dance up to the apple of your eye and demand: "Tell me about it, stud!"
Peace and LoveWould-be time travelers pay attention! Wherever you go it's very important for you to blend into your surroundings so as not to alter history. For that, you need the right look...We often wish we could go back in time. If we could go anywhere, we'd go back to the 1960s. All the music, the psychedelic vibes, and hippie culture is truly exciting to folks like us who would love to see what it was like before we were all buried in our phones 24/7! Who wouldn't want to see the Haight-Ashbury district at its peak! Of course, we've spent a lot of time thinking about what kind of outfit would be perfect to wear, should we ever get our hands on a working time machine... Our costume experts went to work, once again, to design the perfect costume to wear to the '60s and this is what they came up with, and we think it's exactly what we wanted!Design & DetailsThis Flower Child costume is a women's outfit designed to make you feel right at home at Woodstock '69. The costume comes with a white dress with lace trim and wide, billowing bell sleeves. A faux leather vest with fringe fits over the dress since no hippie costume is complete without a bit of fringe! The flower headband adds the finishing touch since if you're going to San Francisco, you need to wear flowers in your hair (or so we're told anyway).Flower Child CostumeSo grab your acoustic guitar, and get ready to show the peace sign all the time because if you successfully travel back in time, this Flower Child outfit will blend right in! Okay, so time travel is pretty unrealistic, but you're going to look great at any retro party or any hippie music festival in the summer.
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!
Working out is mostly about sweating but it's also about attitude! You can't just do a couple jumping jacks and some sit ups and call it a day, you have to add some pizzazz to your workout routine because it's up to you to make it fun. After all, fitness can be daunting so adding a little bit of panache is a great way to kick things into gear. Wearing something spunky and sassy is a great place to start too. Little girls who find sitting still difficult will love releasing all their energy doing fast-paced aerobics to retro 80's jams while working up a sweat. This bright colored costume will put them in a mood to really burn those calories while simultaneously having a great time! This exclusive 80's workout girl costume will have little girls wanting to dance like a maniac on the dance floor. All decked out with leggings and a set of bright blue leg warmer, little girls will love being taught the Electric Slide, the Cabbage Patch, and the Moon Walk by you so you better brush up on your dance moves, mom! The stretchy leotard with the off-the-shoulder sweatshirt worn over it will give your young dancer that Flashdance look that was popular back in the day. Crimp her hair and give her some neon bangle bracelets and watch her sweat it out to all those old 80's VHS workout tapes. We're bet you're very glad you didn't throw those away now!
There's no doubt that your kiddo has some stellar moves. She's been breaking it down for a while. Whether she's whipping her hair back and forth or springing into a sauté from first position she seems to have a wild kind of grace about her. There are plenty of famous ballerinas for her to dress up as but a modern girl like her needs a fun and funky take on the standard dance themed costume. If your little one has been into dance for a while she's probably been a ballerina for quite a few costumed events. While the tutu, white tights, and ballet slippers have made some pretty precious pictures it's about time she found a costume with a little more edge and a lot more feeling. Whether or not she's seen the classic eighties movie, Flashdance, she'll like this off the shoulder sweatshirt, leg warmers, and sweatband. We're not sure if you want your daughter to learn the basics of welding but we're sure the smell of melted metal would make this costume complete. Your daughter may or may not have perfected those maniac moves that Alex Owens made famous all those years ago but she'll be inspired to make up her own moves in this ensemble. Those ballet school judges won't even know what hit them! You'll see it takes is a cute sweatshirt and she'll be dancing like she's never danced before!
Strut Down Memory LaneStrutting down the walk, in your fresh street style while jamming to your favorite music blasting from a boombox is an entirely nostalgic mood that can’t be replicated. However, carrying a giant boombox on your shoulder isn’t all the edgy glam it’s made out to be in movies and TV. Those music boxes get heavy! You’ve got to have the proper arm, shoulder, and back strength to rock the cool-dude attitude for more than a block. And unless you have some cassette tapes that aren’t completely worn out from over-listening, you may find yourself without the tunes to match your mood. Luckily, technology has advanced. And while nothing quite compares to a giant boombox hoisted into the air, this exclusive Black Boombox Purse is easily the next best thing!Design & DetailsWhether you’re trying to imitate the shoulder-carry boombox vibe of days gone by or add an authentic touch to your Halloween costume, this Made By Us costume accessory has your back! Constructed from black leatherette and featuring print graphics that ensure the rectangular bag looks like a boombox, this lightweight alternative retains the edginess of an actual radio. Meanwhile, a 36” strap, attached with metal d-rings, makes carrying this costume purse much more manageable. A metal zipper at the top of the 6.5” x 11” x 3” body offers a safe place to store the essentials. We suggest popping a small music player inside to complete your experience!
An outfit isn’t something that you just throw on. It takes a lot of thought. It tells people a lot about who you are. If you want to be the boss, then you’d better look like a boss and not some kind of two-bit thug. Walk into the speakeasy wearing a dusty old shirt and some rugged slacks and they’ll give you no respect (like Rodney Dangerfield). No, you need something that makes any goon listen to your every order. You want to make your moll swoon at the very sight of you. You want some old school swagger from the 1920s that no thug would dare challenge. You need this Mafia Underboss costume.This 1920’s style gangster costume comes with everything you’d expect to make an impression. The costume includes a pair of pin-stripe pants that look like they came straight from a time machine. A set of classic white suspenders are also included to give you that official mobster style. Pair that with the white tie and you got a look so slick, you might not even need your tommy gun when you decide to cause trouble. All you have to do is add one of your own dress shirts to your look and it’s time to get down to business!Make sure to check out a few of our accessories, like a pair of dapper shoes and a toy tommy gun. Then, there’s no thug on the block who will dare to call you by any other name but “boss”.
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!
It’s hard to believe it now, but there used to be a time before mp3 players. There was a time before phones could hold a bazillion songs inside them. Why, there was even a time before CDs! Let’s take it back to 1985, one of the greatest years on this planet we call Earth.In 1985, you could carry around your boombox to share your music with the world. Now, you couldn’t fit this strange device inside your pocket and you actually had to carry it on your shoulder, which served two purposes. First, it made you look like one cool mamma jamma. 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 point the speakers in any direction and it turns the scene into an instant dance party.Of course, few of these actually exist in the wild these days, but this inflatable 80’s boombox accessory recreates the incredible historical device. 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.
Someone once famously said that all you need is love. We think we also need nachos, gas money, and cool stuff to watch on TV, but peace and love are definitely on that list, too. When your little gal is wearing this groovy Peace & Love Hippie Costume, she can help spread some good vibes, and everyone can just, like, mellow out, man!While this hip look will let your kid to show how much she digs universal love and world peace, there are a bunch of other things she could do to get into the groove even more. She could start a jam band with her pals and go on tour around the block, putting on folk festivals for the neighbors (trust us, once they put on a mini-Woodstock, lemonade stands will be a cinch). Or, if she's getting ready for Halloween, she could make flower garlands to give to her fellow trick-or-treaters to add a little good karma to the festivities. Nothing brings harmony to a bunch of kids dressed up as different monsters, superheroes, and cartoon characters like flowers and groovy jams!Okay, maybe all kids these days aren't into vintage hippie stuff, but that totally won't stop your little one from having a blast in her costume! This wild dress and the matching headband have symbols of peace and love printed all over them. It also comes with a fringed faux suede vest attached to the dress, along with some matching boot covers. If she needs any pointers for cool accessories to go with her retro ensemble, anything beaded or tie dyed will be just far-out, man!
Lots of cat burglars out there seem to love wearing bright white gloves whenever they are stealing priceless artifacts or jewelry from some museum or rich dude. Why the heck would they do that? They have dressed themselves in all black and even wear a black mask to hide themselves and then they decide that they need a glowing pair of gloves that anybody can spot! Do they think it will scare the guards into thinking there is just a pair of floating hands somewhere? We don't think so. We're going to try something new and put on a pair of black gloves when we go off stealing from the rich to give to the poor. You can come along too! Just grab a pair of these Black gloves and you'll be set. If you don't feel like breaking the law then you can always just wear these with any costume that requires black gloves!
Sock Hop to ItSo, your little one finally saw the movie Grease! and then immediately did a deep dive into the culture and fashion of the 50s. Fun! Can you remember when you were that age, and how the styles and songs and yes, even the malts of that era were so thrilling to uncover? We can!

She's ready to hit the school dance, the diner, or even the neighborhood trick-or-treating scene!Product DetailsThis faux leather pair is a perfect replica of the 50s staple footwear.

Make Your MoveMany dance crazes have taken over discos and clubs over the years. Some of them survive to this day. Who doesn't still know the basics of the Macarena? Hip, hip, shoulder, shoulder, twist, right? Many dances are timeless. You've probably heard of The Hustle and The Electric Slide, even if you don't know all the moves. It's been a while since we've seen a truly inspired dance take over the floors everywhere from popular nightclubs to hometown weddings. Nothing truly inspirational has come to pass since we stopped using real disco balls and rocking sparkles like the disco era. We think it's time that the people take over.

Not in those rags, you're not, but once you suit up in our exclusive Authentic Spaceman Costume, you'll be ready to put on a mind blowing show that's out of this world!Everyone who's ever heard KISS has got their favorite band member. The Demon, The Starchild, The Catman. Sure, they're alright, but who cares about them? You're here because you crave the raw, wicked licks from The Spaceman's electric guitar! The whole band has a part to play and a time to shine, from dealing out the earth-shattering vocals and thundering drum beats. But when The Spaceman starts dishing out a guitar solo, all eyes are on him! It might also have to do with the smoke and pyrotechnics bellowing out of his axe while he's shredding away, but that's just a day in the life of an epic god of rock. He knows if a concert ends with all of the amps laying in smoldering piles around the stage, he's done his job!The only thing better than watching The Spaceman tear it up on stage is to dress up in our wild costume and causing some mayhem of your own! This shiny jumpsuit is officially licensed realistic KISS attire, and features stitched on lightning bolt and sequin embellishments, and detachable silver foam shoulder rings, for a hard rockin' look! Grab our matching wig and put on some Spaceman style face paint, and get ready to party like a legend, all night long!
Putting on a live rock and roll show without a set of shades is the kind of irresponsible thing that rock stars just won't stand for. That's why you'd better be ready to suffer the consequences if you even think about trying to rock a show without them. Or you could just save yourself some backlash from the music community and slip these on your face to be the stud everyone already knows you are.
TELL 'EM WHAT YOU WANTThey asked us what we wanted. We responded in droves. We wanted musically gifted. We wanted non-stop energy, pomp, and cheer. We wanted optimism that would never age away. Millions rushed to the concerts, to the YouTube uploads, even to the coffee shop that showed up on an Instagram post about that one time months ago. Well, now we want more. What is to be done when the music drifts away and we're still left wanting? Maybe the laser-lights and overseas shows have ended, but that doesn't mean that the music is over. All we need is the right moment to reawaken the magic. We just need to tell them what we want one more time! So, we're just going to close our eyes, here, picture all the power that comes from pop, bring some kind of magical lyrics to mind, and wish as hard as we can.

Battle for the BallotThe road to getting a vote for women wasn't a smooth one. Which is strange, considering how ridiculous some of the arguments for keeping half the population from having a say in politics were. People used to argue that the human race would die out as soon as the government gave women a political voice. Because for some reason, getting involved in politics would make every woman decide to leave motherhood behind forever. Many men stood against the vote because they didn't want to hear ladies speak in public places. But, with years of protests, hours of women annoying their husbands by speaking in public, and whittling away at the voting laws state by state, women finally earned their voice. Celebrate those brave ladies with this Woman's Suffragette Costume!Product DetailsYou'll look ready to hit the streets in the early 1900s with this sleek ensemble. This costume comes with a dress that's designed to look like a blouse and skirt; the long-sleeved collared top and floor-length skirt would be perfectly acceptable in the political salons of all classes. A green band cinches around the waist, and of course, a sash is worn over the shoulder to denote that you are a part of the women's suffrage movement.Power of the PastForgetting the past is a dangerous thing. We can't forget a time when people would say a thing like, "Why would women want to vote when their husbands and sons could speak in their interests anyway?" It seems that after about a hundred years of woman voting, none of the Victorian arguments had much merit. And women definitely have the right to speak in public nowadays. In fact, to the probable shock and horror of nineteenth-century men, they even run countries and sit as judges on the supreme court. Seems that politics could have used a woman's touch a long time ago!
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.

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. And for a day of vintage-style beach fun you'd need to wear something like this Beachside Betty Adult Costume. It's 100 percent polyester with red and white stripes.

MR. MONEYBAGSThere are only so many looks that have been clearly designated as belonging to couples throughout history. Most can stand on their own. You know Old Saint Nick? Well, he can do his job without Mrs. Claus or even without a flying reindeer. Even the standard of Peanut Butter and Jelly can periodically show up solo for the occasional sandwich-lover with a peanut allergy. So, it is with that in mind that we have to look at Bonnie and Clyde. Now, this is a duo that we expect a lot from. They work together so well that they continue to inspire a strange sort of love and crime story nearly a hundred years later! But, what is Clyde Barrow without Bonnie Parker? (Other than a guy with twice as much cash from the banks and small town shops, we suppose.) Sure, technically there was a whole gang involved in the crime spree, but how would the story have looked with just Clyde?DESIGN & DETAILSIt's time to see what it might feel like to be on all the important lists between the 20s and 30s. Our in-house design team has crafted a high-quality look that draws on all the best crime stories of the supposed bank robber! Naturally, this look needs to be sleek and period appropriate. Fortunately, the guy was pretty stylish, too. These suit pants have button closure with black and brown stripes. The suspenders are attached to the pants and have a great contrast with the satin tie. Finish the look off with a fedora hat and you're ready to show off your best Clyde impression. CALLING ALL BONNIESNow, you can do your costume perfect justice on your own. But, you might also just happen to find the perfect Bonnie along the way! Just watch out for any old-time police officers checking the FBI Most Wanted lists!

So one day she went shopping for some way to cover up what she considered to be unsightly hands. She went to every store she could think of, and just couldn't find what she wanted. Then she decided to shop online.She was in luck! Her search was over when she found the Plus Red Gloves. The beautiful pair of satin red gloves can be paired nicely with any outfit. Add an extra bit of glamour to your next Halloween costume. Or, rock these beautiful satin red gloves with an evening gown. The elbow-length is perfect to layer diamonds or pearls over.

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!
