If there's something wrong with channeling all the negativity in a person's life into dance, we don't want to be right.

Nothing could be as much fun as squishing it beneath the sleek and fashionable heels of our kneehigh go-go boots! In fact, every few months we like to take a trip to the local disco club and work out all our problems beneath a shimmering disco ball to some of the catchiest music ever recorded. We think that's a strategy that could make a lot of other people feel better, too, and we hope you agree. But maybe that sounds crazy.

Help us help you by trying on this Sexy Disco Diva Dress and stepping out there on the dance floor. We're certain that with some matching boogie shoes or roller skates, an outfit like this will improve anybody's mood. And if it doesn't?

Sometimes all that bad stuff can be kind of sticky, you know?Do us a favor: if our method works for you, would you pass it on? The only thing that would make us happier than one person wearing a Sexy Disco Diva Dress and dancing til they feel better is everyone putting on a Sexy Disco Diva Dress and feeling better together!
Do you sometimes imagine yourself as a high society lady? We can see it, you're looking at flappers, aren't you? People from the twenties had high society down to a T. It was the gilded age so people really went all out. In high society, nothing was untouched, left boring and untextured.Cars had only been around for a short amount of time before people were driving around in shining Speedsters in bright colors with giant hood, sculpted to perfection. Those perfect cars carried around elegant people, their hair in perfect waves, faces powdered and rouged, and shoulders wrapped in furs. Those elegant people were headed to the theatre to see the talkies on the silver screen or the speakeasies to sip illicit hooch while listening to that new kind of music they were calling jazz. This age was all about sound, texture, and energy. So, it's no wonder why we still look up to the fashion of that time.Maybe you're going to a 20s style concert or party, maybe you're simply choosing wisely for your next costumed affair, either way, you're sure to love this Charleston flapper ensemble. The dress has a dropped waist with a sash and a pleated skirt. The shoulders are covered in faux fur for that 20s style level of sophistication. With the flowered headband, you're just about ready for your first night at the speakeasy or whatever high society people like you do.
Whether we lived through it or heard about it from our parents, we all have some exposure to the flashing lights and psychedelic history that was the age of Disco, the ‘70s. Man, wasn’t that the era?

We hate to break it to you, but time-travel isn't possible. Bygone eras are just that: gone.

Just have her show up to the dance wearing an adorable poodle skirt costume like this and the 50s might just start coming back. The 1950s, that is.

She Doesn't Suffrage Fools Let those other girls in her class dress like pop stars and princesses this Halloween—your little gal is a fighter of freedom and justice! She has been politically active since before she could walk, and never, EVER, misses a chance to vote in a school election. Lately, she's been reading up on the women's movement, and the brave ladies that paved the path to greater (though by no means equal) rights for women. It should come as no shock to you, then, that the moment she laid eyes on this costume, she cast her ballot in favor of its strength of character and important message. The fact that she can also use it to help educate her peers or rally the houses that she trick-or-treats at, well, that's just icing on the proverbial cake.

The Future is Female The suffragettes would be proud of your little girl, keeping their fight alive so many years later. It's a tough world out there, but we think your politically-minded girl is the future, and we've gotta say, the future looks bright!
Sequins! What makes a costume shine better than sequins? Don't answer that, because there is no answer. Sequins are the answer. Sequins are life! Whoever invented the sequin (probably Elton John, because Elton John is a genius. Don't bother finding out if it really was Elton John or not, just go with us on this one), they truly saved fashion. And how simple! Take a handful of little plastic disks (well, let's be honest, if you really want to do it right you need a bucketful), tie them to a piece of fabric and viola! Not just "oh hey, there's some plastic on your pants" but "Oh wow! What majestic beauty! How did you do that?" Basically, sequins shimmer like distant stars. They can draw out a person's secrets. They're hypnotizing and magical...Sorry, we got a little caught up in things there. But you need these pants. Think of any famous singer you've ever heard of. What do they all have in common? Great voices? Sure. Catchy songs? Maybe. But what they really have in common? You already know the answer: sequins. Because being a singer isn't about how well you sing or what you sing (Okay, it's mostly about those things), but it's also about catching the eyes of your audience! And nothing will draw the eye like these magical pants. Maybe you're not ready for that. Maybe you can't stand people falling all over themselves trying to talk to you. If you can't handle it, don't get these pants. You're not ready for that kind of power. But if you are ready... the world is yours!
Underground GlamourGoing out these days is a little different than it was back in the twenties. Back in the day, people used to dress to the nines and headed to clubs that were utterly exclusive... how so? Well because they were often illegal, of course! Imagine wearing beaded silk gowns and feathers to a club that was in the basement of a shoe shop! That's how it went during prohibition. Just because Speakeasies were set in dank basements doesn't mean they weren't glamorous, every party is about who's there, after all. And these Speakeasies were a workshop for modern music, welcoming Jazz legends and big bands to the stage in the dimly lit smokey spaces. If sitting back and sipping a gimlet while a horns croon away on stage sounds good to you, then perhaps it's time to take a step back in time and slip into this flapper gown!Design & DetailsThis flapper dress pays respect to an era of glamour with a modern fit. You'll find thoughtful elements from our in-house designers woven into this costume, from the lush Chevron pattern created by black and white donuts to the fringe-trimmed hem that moves as you shimmy to the music. Zipping up the back, this dress is easy to slip into, even if you've already bobbed your hair. A sequined headband tops off this costume to make sure you're ready to go as soon as it arrives!Jewel of Jazz Jazz music is pretty great over your speakers but sitting in front of a live jazz band dressed in sparkles is next level unforgettable. If you've been daydreaming about a look that will transport you to a different time, this flapper costume is just the thing. The roaring twenties might be almost a hundred years back but when you slip into this look, the jazz age is alive and well!
Gangsters Get ReadyHave you always wanted to be a gangster? You might have had a daydream or two about it. It sounds pretty awesome on paper, but there is a downside to being in the mafia. While some of the more prominent gangsters made it look downright glamorous, what with all the loot, respect, partying, and action . . . Wait, what's the downside again? We can't remember. Being a gangster in the 20s sounds epic, especially in an exclusive Deluxe Plus Size Gangster Costume.This adult costume is exactly what you need to step your shiny shoes into an organized crime family.

It's Called StyleListen, some poor cats just don't get it. They walk down the streets, wearing a pair of dirty sneakers like it's okay.

You need to wear the kind of footwear that lets everyone know that you deserve unmatched respect and acclaim. You need these Leopard Platform Pimp Shoes.Product DetailsLoud, luxurious, and leopard print, these platform shoes take your outfit to the next level.

It can always be fun to give your hair a little body and shake things up a little. That's what Sandy does in the final scenes of the classic film, Grease, to shake up her good girl image. Now, you can too with this Bad Sandy wig.The Grease costume wig is based on the hairstyle worn by Sandy when she wows everyone at the big carnival.

It fits with a mesh net, so you can transform into the character in a matter of seconds!
Do you ever wonder what happened to the classic dining experience of the 50s? Fast food has taken those burgers and shakes and put them in soulless settings with no red vinyl seating or chrome lined counters in site. If you've been to a cute chrome countered diner in the last five years you've probably seen more options for sweet potato fries and bison burgers with aioli then the traditional fare. Don't get us wrong, we think a diverse diet is swell but when it comes to menu items like chocolate shakes don't try and sneak us almond milk or natural sugar replacements, we want the real thing. We want that true blue diner experience. It all started when they go rid of the car hop. Sure, drive-throughs are so much easier and season friendly, you don't even have to interact with a human being. Now, with the loss of those friendly servers be they on roller skates or in sneakers we lost the soul in our meat patties with cheese, we lost the spirit of the classic fifties dining experience. If you want to be a part of a bygone era, you can become one of those cheerful servers bearing diner classics in this 50s car hop uniform. Whether you're opening a classic 50s diner or you've got a part in a play this uniform with its starched white shirt, pants, and apron and the red pinstriped vest will make you feel as wholesome as that grilled cheese sandwich cook made so skillfully. Top it off with the red bow tie and diner cap and you'll look as sweet and classic as the cherry pie that's on special every Friday afternoon. Forget super sizing, let's soulful-ize those fries!
Let’s face it; listening to jazz and doing the Charleston is way more fun when you have fabulous accessories. In fact, everything is way more fun when you have fabulous accessories! But being a flapper is the most fun. The thing about flapper style is that it's all in the details. A swish of fringe here, a sparkle catching the light there, a pretty pop of red lips against an otherwise dark speakeasy. We have tried channeling our flapper spirit while dressed in jeans and it simply doesn’t work; the muse of the Jazz Age needs feathers and sequins and sloe gin fizz. We can’t help ya with that last one, but our Black/Silver Deluxe Beaded Flapper Headband ought to satisfy your inner flapper’s taste for opulence!
In the day of hardcore rock bands, there was one that was iconic. Not simply for its fireworks, flame spurts, blood spitting, or other pyrotechnics. No, KISS was known for their look.We're talking the iconic black and white make-up. Long red tongues. The big black hair. The studded, sparkly outfits. KISS was hard rock at its finest.So if you're trying to pass off for part of the band, some extreme make-up is a must. Also, you should get your hands on the proper bling... and some gnarly hair. Our Catman KISS Wig is just what you need if you're aiming to mimic KISS' famous drummer, Peter Kriss, The Catman. It's 100 percent synthetic, styled, and black as the night. Warning: may cause furious head-banging.

When you think about gangsters of the Prohibition era, what comes to mind? If you’re like most folks, you probably picture a square-jawed tough guy in a brightly colored pinstripe suit, sporting an oversized hat and toting a tommy gun. When you think about it, though, that likely wouldn’t have been the most practical look for your more prudent wiseguys. Tough customer or not, when your primary source of income is something less than legal, it’s unwise to walk around in an outfit that more or less screams, “I am involved in organized crime!”Anyway, that image probably has more to do with Hollywood and Dick Tracy comics than with reality. That’s not to say that real-life gangsters didn’t take pride in their appearances, though. Look back through historical photos of Al Capone and his various partners in crime and you’ll see a bunch of well-dressed fellows who look like they’re up to no good. It’s pretty clear that your higher-caliber gangsters were big believers in the old saying about how you should dress for the job you want.Hopefully your teen won’t be following the same advice in this snazzy polyester costume, as there aren’t many places hiring old-timey gangsters these days. But that doesn’t mean you can’t have a good time rocking this eye-catching pinstripe get-up, featuring a double-breasted jacket with four buttons and wide lapels, and matching trousers. It’s time to start practicing your Edward G. Robinson impression, but remember to keep an eye out for the paddy wagon!
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!
Easing Into the Jazz EraIt's been a while since the 1920s jazz era was in full swing. Since then, our culture has been through a lot. We've traded flapper gowns for blue jeans, big band music for electronic beats, and Model Ts for minivans. Now, this isn't all bad. After all, wearing pants is rather convenient and we don't mind listening to music through Bluetooth speakers rather than cranking on a Victrola to listen to the same couple of records again and again. We don't mind handy modern inventions that weren't even dreamed of in the twenties such as the bikini, the ballpoint pen, and the internet. Still, every once in awhile it's nice to step back into a time when people slipped on sequined dresses and sipped illicit beverages in underground speakeasies while big bands kept the crowds dancing into the wee hours of the morning. Doesn't sound too shabby, does it?Details & DesignThis Shimmer Flapper Costume is Made by Us, which means it's been designed with both fashion and quality in mind. The Chevron pattern is lush with shining black and white sequins. The zig-zagged hemline is trimmed in a long fringe that will make any Speakeasy style shimmying pop. As the dress zips up the back from the waist, you won't have to struggle to slip the dress over your head after you've finished your makeup and hair. A whimsical headband that's studded with a long feather polishes this costume off with a 20s flourish, making you ready for Jazz era fun!Jazz it UpAre you ready for a costume that can be worn after Halloween is over? A great theme for parties from bachelorettes to New Year's Eve, flappers will never go out of style. You can change up your look by adding flirtatious tights, long gloves, and even different bobbed wigs! As flappers have been in vogue for a hundred years, there are plenty of modern ways to make this look your own!
“Happy birthday…Mr. President…happy birthday…to…yooouuu!” - Marilyn Monroe, singing to John F. KennedyDo gentlemen prefer blondes?

The look ties off with a sassy bow in the front. It's topped off with a jaunty cap with a gold star embroidered on the front. Pair this dress with some old-school pumps and a can-do attitude and you'll find yourself immersed in history in a fresh new way. Getting in your Glad RagsThink you're ready to revamp your look with a blast from the past? This ensemble has plenty of flair, making it the perfect pick for swinging on the dance floor.

Talk about an iconic look that never goes out of style: flappers have been a look that many have tried to imitate ever since their heyday in the 1920s. But just because it’s no longer the 20s (or the 20th century for that matter) doesn’t mean you can’t still dress the part every now and then.The flapper movement was all about having fun in a time when money was tight and laws were tighter.

Diamonds are ForeverSome styles are forever. Glamorous ladies, throughout history, have always known that diamonds make for some serious style points. That white glimmer is timeless! 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.

Dance Like No One's WatchingEver felt as though you weren't good at dancing? Throw that feeling away for good! If you really think about it, all dance moves are kind of silly. The Bus Stop.

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

Model CitizenThese days, we don't think of pin-up girls as heroes very often. They were just models, right? Not during WW2! During World War Two pin-up girls were painted on airplane noses, much like the bowheads on the bow of a Viking ship. While these ladies might have looked a little risque, they were there to bring the airplane extra luck on their perilous trips over the European mainland. While women weren't allowed to be a part of those harrowing dog fights high in the sky, the illustrations painted on these planes would give the pilots the confidence to take off with a steady hand. In the forties, it didn't matter what your specialty was. The name of the game was one for all and all for one!Details & DesignAny fan of retro fashion is sure to love this Made by Us pin-up costume that combines khaki and classy in a timeless way. It features a high-waisted pair of army green pants and a khaki cropped top that ties in the middle. It's topped with a military-style hat to set it off right. The top has a charming square neckline and is accented with gold buttons that match the double buttons on the pants. With a timeless color scheme and a structured cut, this outfit will make your salute really hit home. Neat as a PinAre you ready to get that pin-up girl polish? Curl your hair into the perfect Victory roll and apply a classic red lipstick for an amazing pin-up girl look. Throw on a pair of character pumps and you'll look right at home posing for the camera. Now, all you need to do is find someone to paint your picture on the side of an airplane. Honestly, we don't think that's too much to ask!
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!
Fashion is a tough industry to get one’s thumb on. It changes with the winds and we’ll never know what trends are going to make the decade famous. The vote is looking pretty unlikely for tin foil hats but not much better for floral-patterned Crocs or shoulder padded velour tracksuits.While it is true that some of our most notorious of fashion trends have vanished to time, others stay in our minds like fond dreams. The team is still voting on the fashion trend that comes in second place—it is between rainbow leg warmers, bell-bottoms, or the bedazzled ‘mom sweater’ featuring a unicorn wearing rainbow leg warmers—but first place has easily come from the inspired Roaring ‘20s. The style and energy of their flappers leaves little competition, especially when faced with the ‘Shimmy Queen,’ Gilda Gray.That’s why we offer you a truly transformation opportunity with the Vibrant Fuchsia Flapper Dress. Make it about all that jazz as you channel your inner Sugar ‘Kane’ Kowalczyk and Roxie Hart and flap your way to fame. The perfect combination of brilliant fuchsia and silver, the dress and included accessories are sure to be noticed and the sequins and fringe will make you truly shake and sparkle. With a sleeveless pullover tank dress provides mobility and the feathered and sequined headband will make you the queen of dance. Relive this gorgeous fashion trend and jazz it up with a few perfect accessories like a feathered boa and some beads, and just wait for your well-deserved applause.

It features an off-center zipper and false pockets in front, along with the white "T-Birds" logo printed on the back. It's the perfect finishing touch for your Bad Sandy costume, or for taking a spin as your own original drag racing tough gal character!
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.

The 80s CalledThey said you look totally radical.Okay, so maybe an entire decade can't really make any phone calls to the future, but the 80s definitely were a special time. It was the age of teased up hair, bright neon colors, and cassette tapes. It was the age of New Wave, Hair Metal, and colorful antics. It was the age of spectacle, which we somehow lost in the angsty age of the 1990s. Well, we're on a crusade to bring that sort of audacious style back... one pair of shades at a time.Product DetailsThese bright orange shades are simple plastic frames. They don't feature lenses, but they do have a shutter style front, which is much better than silly clear lenses. They're intended for ages 3 and older, and are one size fits most. Just pair it up with your shoulder pads, your neon scrunchie, and maybe some spandex to really help the 80s get the comeback it deserves!Back in StyleWhen you pay homage to the 80s, you indulge in the greatest decade of them all!
