While everyone searches endlessly for the most shared memes, the most relevant pop culture, and the most timely politics to inspire their costumes this year, wouldn't you rather prop your feet up on a nice, big stone and enjoy the simpler things in life? Like attire made from the coats of wild jungle cats. And fire-roasted squirrel. And we mustn't overlook the dry safety of a hole in the wall....No? Well, even if that's not your thing, we've got the perfect costume if you aim to let some other primal instincts loose this Halloween. Even if squirrel stew somehow doesn't pique your interest, consider the hilarity that could ensue if you made "sorry, it's just my instincts" your sole excuse for all your wild behavior. You ate all the deviled eggs? "Not sorry, I haven't eaten in four moons." You got caught dancing on the host's dining room table? "Sorry, but it's a ritualistic, instinctual thing you modern bipeds wouldn't understand." You are being interrogated over the scent of snacks emanating from your purse and coat pockets? "While you all are hunting each other, someone around here has to be the gatherer." This one-shoulder sheath mini-dress will make a perfect costume for exploring any of the above possibilities—or for forgetting about the complexities of modernity and dancing like the animal you are. We approve wholeheartedly of the aforementioned scenarios, but cannot promise that all your instinctual impulses will be necessarily "lawful." Exercise caution—but not too much, you wild thing.
Are you tired of having to slay imaginary orcs with your Little League bat? Sick of pretending that your yardstick is the legendary Excalibur? Embarrassed that you're the only one in your LARPing group who has to use a pool noodle as a stand in a sword made of Valerian Steele? How embarrassing! It's enough to make any self-respecting Dungeons-and-Dragons-playing, Lord-of-the-Rings-reading, Game-of-Thrones-watching battle enthusiast want to hang up his embrodiered velvet cloak in resignation.Time to rest easy, friend, because your long nightmare of make-believe is finally over! With this 47" Sword, you don't have to use sub-par props in your important dragon-slaying business. With it's highly realistic look, you can easily step into a new realm of imaginary quests, all while earning the respect of both yourself and others! Feel the weight of it in the palm of your hand...test it with a smooth slice through the air...and then ask others to kindly step aside as you challenge that jerk Donovan to a duel! That guy was always ragging on you about your costume...and now that you have this sword, the time has come to avenge your honor and cut him down to size! Excalibur! (Right? That's what you say, when you're about to do something really cool with a sword? It's been a while since we've been able to hang at Medieval Times with our D&D crew, so we've kind of forgot some stuff).
A good pair of footwear will make or break a costume. Would you take Robin Hood seriously if he were wearing sneakers? No. How about Darth Vader in flip-flops? Definitely not. The footwear should match the outfit. Also consider if your child went to costume parties or the Renaissance Festival. They'll need decent foot wear for traversing the gravel paths, muddy corners, and grassy hills. A decent pair of shoes that look the part are necessary.So when the feet of your child are at stake, look no further than our Child Renaissance Boots. Made of faux suede, they reach about mid-calf and have decorative adjustable straps. Your child's costume will look much more authentic if he/she is wearing something like these Child Renaissance Boots. And they'll probably even feel like a rouge-ish hero too!
A Sherwood ThingRobin Hood and her merry ladies knew a thing or two about glamping. In fact, many folks said that their little nook of Sherwood forest was the coziest corner of Nottingham. While stealing from the rich, Robin often swiped woven tapestries and shaggy blankets to make the secret dens they wove from sticks much warmer in the damp English weather.Every night the Merry Ladies would get together around a fire to feast on wild rabbit stew and swap stories about their noble heists and their charitable pursuits and every once in awhile they'd get Maid Marian to stop by and play her fiddle so they all could dance under the mossy oak trees. Want to get a taste of the outlaw life? No need to build a den of sticks and stolen tapestries in the woods, simply slip on this Robin Hood Costume and you'll feel ready to take on a character with rich history!Details & DesignThis unique Robin Hood costume balances historical touches and modern fun. The off-shoulder blouse ties at the neck and has elastic around the wide neckline. A brown vest with rivets and a square-pattern hem brings Medieval fashions into living color. This costume is completed with green pants, a quiver belt, faux leather gauntlets, and a deep green velvet cape. Rock this with your favorite pair of moccasins or a pair of boots and you'll be ready for action.Take a BowWhile this costume looks like it's ready for some action as soon as it arrives at your door, when you top off this Robin Hood outfit with an archery-contest ready bow, you'll have a legendary look. If you really want to bring the Sherwood vibe to life, get your friends to tag along and become your merry guys and gals!
All About the BenjaminBen Franklin was one cool dude. Throughout his lifetime, he did tons of stuff during the early establishment of America and he also created a ton of cool gadgets that many of us use today. He drew the first political cartoon. He figured out lightning and crafted the first lightning rods to protect buildings from storms. He made the first bifocals, which is basically the same design that grandma uses today! He held the title of the first Postmaster General for the United States. And, of course, his crowning achievement? Getting his face on the hundred dollar bill! Every time you get a crisp hundred bucks, you get to look at his face!Well, we wanted to honor the classic historical figure with a costume that lets you look just like Benjamin! This Men's Colonial Benjamin Franklin Costume tries to capture his look from various portraits of him!Design & DetailsCreated by our expert costume designers, this men's costume comes with everything you need to dress like Ben Franklin!

The Noble TogaFor a century, the Romans ruled and created some pretty remarkable architecture! They had a society filled with some pretty advanced ideas, too! But, of all their inventions, we have to give the highest praise to their fashion sense. This glorious weave of wool is what separated the scholars from the students. What other article of clothing has inspired an entire theme for parties!? It's time to give a little honor to the toga that elevates us all. It's a pretty common belief that everyone in Greece and Rome wore the toga. But, a real ancient Roman would gasp at the audacity. The true toga was for Roman citizens exclusively. Then you had the ones with golden shawls or even purple stripes! Those meant that you had an emperor or even a member of the Roman Senate striding up to you. Of course, these days, we wear them a bit more freely. (Plus, we've made a few modern adaptations to make them easier, too!)Product DetailsJump into the fun of a toga party or some ancient Roman rulership with our Party Toga costume! You won't need 18-feet of cloth to bring your illustrious frame to bear. With this costume, you'll be able to slip into the look of a toga with a simple tunic that features golden trim and accents on a pure white base. The gold belt keeps things cinched thanks to hoop and loop strips in the back. Give yourself a Senatorial boost with the included gold leaf headband and then choose between the blue or red shawl to complete your look. Command the PartyThe Roman Senate might have been fighting with each other for a thousand years. But you won't have to fight to get a winning look. This Party Toga costume is a comfy and stylish way to bring ancient Rome into the modern day!
You always knew your little girl was a goddess, but what would you do if you found out she was an actual, mythical being? We bet it would be quite a surprise, but once you see how divine she looks in this Greek Goddess Costume, it'll suddenly make perfect sense!Back in Ancient Greece, there was a whole host of gods and goddesses that were prayed to that represented pretty much every aspect of life. If you were a farmer, you could pray to Demeter, Goddess of agriculture, for hopes of a good harvest. Or, if you were about to go on a long expedition, you might want to pray to Artemis, Goddess of the wilderness, so that your party might have good luck while travelling through forests and hills. And then there is Athena, Goddess of wisdom and reason, who's good side you always wanted to be on, because whether you were fighting a war, or just building something, you'll probably want as much wisdom and reason as you can get!This classically inspired costume is designed to look like what a majestic goddess of Ancient Greece may have worn on Mount Olympus. The ankle length sleeveless dress and matching shoulder drapes fade from a cream color to turquoise, giving it an ethereal look. She'll look like quite a goddess once she puts on the included gold braided headband, and be sure to get her a pair of matching gold sandals to complete this mythical style!
Stone Cold LegendMedusa gets a bad rap. Yes, her head of snakes turns men into stone with one look. But can we revisit why she kept on running into guys again? She wasn't hunting down innocent men in bookstores. Imagine her laughing after she pulled a "Made you look" and left a clutch of bookish granite statues behind. That's a pretty funny image, but it wasn't her style. She tried to stay far, far away from all humanity. Those Greek soldiers just couldn't leave a cursed demi-goddess alone when she created a challenge fit for a hero. So, yeah. There were casualties. But we would argue that if you go hunting for a head of snakes, you shouldn't go crying blaming a demi-goddess when you turn into a blob of rock!Design & DetailsWear your crown of snakes with pride when you slip on this Medusa headband. The snakes are adjustable with a shiny scale pattern on the surface. The gold eyes and forked tongues will make your hairdo look like a living legend. Want to fully transform into your Medusa form? Pair this snake headband with one of our elegant Greek or Roman goddess costumes to bring this ancient myth to life!

When you're an Egyptian Pharaoh, you need to maintain a certain kind of look. After all, the pharaoh is the supreme leader of an entire nation, so you really can't just roll into the palace without sporting some serious weaponry to protect your status as the undisputed leader of the Egypt. They didn't have laser guns back then (unless our theory of aliens visiting ancient Egypt to teach humans how to build pyramids is correct). And although showing up to the party as a laser gun toting pharaoh might seem pretty awesome, it's not exactly historically accurate. This handy toy sword accessory is though!This Egytian Khopesh is designed after the weapons made during ancient history! The toy weapon is made of plastic, with bronze metallic paint on the exterior. It's signature shape depicts the axe-like curved blade found on classic swords from northern African pharaoh tombs, so you'll definitely look like a regal ruler when you strut your stuff holding this accessory in hand.

Quoth the Raven, 'Some Coiffure!' Once upon a Halloweeny, while we gandered weak and weary, at our hairstyle (sad and dreary) upon the mirror of our door, there we wondered a simple query, one that got us rather cheery: "Could we make our hair do more!?" The first step was to get out of that rhythmic pattern of Edgar Allan Poe's spectacular style. It's pretty tough coming up with stellar looks while you're stuck in the mindset of a haunting song. It did, however, give us some solid inspiration for ways to help you access your inner poet. Don't scratch your noggin all night trying to figure out the next stanza of your epic poem when you can transform into the epic writer in a snap!

Imagine you are hard at work running your busy Renaissance-era tavern, pouring ale and slinging stew for weary travelers and local regulars. Do you picture yourself wearing an elegant gown, with pretty slippers and streamers in your hair? Or, would you rather be decked out in this Tavern Maiden Costume, and show everyone how to really have a good time?If you're like us, most of our knowledge of Renaissance times comes from faires and movies based on Shakespeare plays. These probably aren't the most historically accurate sources, but they sure paint a fun scene, and one of the staples of this scene is the humble tavern. Taverns seem to be where all the good stuff happened back then. It's where you went for food, drink, warmth, news, and to look for work. And in many taverns, there was a tough talking gal running the show. She kept things from getting too rowdy, and also made sure everyone had a drink in their hand and a room for the night. Well, if they had coin to spare, that is.This Renaissance-inspired costume is a fun way to step into the part of a tavern keeper, or many other roles from "ye olde times." The earthy and warm colored dress and corset would look right at home in an old village full of hardworking people who know how to let their hair down. Just slip on a pair of sturdy, sassy boots, and you'll be all ready to handle tonight's crowd at your imaginary tavern from earlier, or to let your imagination run wild at the Renaissance Festival!
A Normal FantasyIt started off like any other day: You tidied up your cottage, spun some on your spinning wheel, fed your animals, and headed to your garden to pluck any troublesome weeds. But as you labored over a particularly stubborn weed, you heard it: the warning bell. Something terrible was coming. Before you could run back into the safety of your cottage, a shadow fell across your garden. You looked up, horror welling up inside you—it was a dragon! You tried to run, but it swooped down from the sky and grabbed you in its talons, hauling you hundreds of feet in the air. All you could do was scream for help.Thankfully, your screams caught the attention of a nearby knight, and he raced to your rescue. You could see him galloping on his noble steed, following you to the dragon’s lair. Relief washed over you as one thought overrode all others:“Thank goodness I wore my good dress today.”Product DetailsObviously, it would never do to be rescued looking like a farmer! When you’re a damsel in distress, you’ve got to look your best when your knight in shining armor arrives. That’s why we recommend always stepping out in this Womens Medieval Maiden Costume. The scarlet pullover dress has a cape attached at the shoulder seams, metallic gold braid trim and puffed sleeves, along with a scoop neckline with a ruffled elastic edge and a plastic gold filigree pin with an faux oval gem at the center. It also comes with a foam headpiece that ties around the head with a gold braid.No matter what medieval monster you find yourself facing, this dress guarantees you’ll always look your best!
George Washington. One of the few presidents that everyone can recognize, able to even state that he was our first! We can imagine him with this fist on his chest, sailing across the Delaware River. We can imagine the tales we’ve heard… his wooden teeth and his proud proclamations that he couldn’t dare lie about cutting down the cherry tree. Few know the truth of where he got those wooden teeth!… Ok, so that was probably a lie, but it is hard living up to the high pedestal that the founding fathers left for us. Harder still to stand up to the first President! But, we can try by knowing as many obscure details about the man as possible. For example, he was born with no mortal father! Er, no, that was Merlin. George Washington was born with no middle name, though! He was also a rather exceptional dancer. As there weren’t any video games to play in the 18th century, we were left with few diversions and as a growing man in the social order, he was expected to attend many balls and parties. Finding that he enjoyed it so much, his skill quickly developed and so did his attraction to all the ladies at the dances, many of them attempting to dance at least twice with him!So, while there is a lot to live up to, it is generally accessible! And most of it can be done even without rotting out your teeth, first. You can start by helping your tyke climb into this George Washington costume. The blue polyester jacket has shining buttons in the front and the white cravat shirt just screams the right time period. Black vinyl boot tops make for a reliable look for the old world foot wear. Include a few other accessories, such as the iconic white wig or even the notorious cherry chopping axe!
Don’t Cross HerA lot of people have at least heard of Florence Nightingale. She is one of the most famous women of all time, and for sure the best-known nurse that there is. Pioneering better hygiene and living standards for patients is something that we can all thank her for, as well as the many other good practices she pushed for in her lifetime.What a lot of people don’t know is that she had quite the temper, too! She used to sneak up on her staff and yell at them if they were caught slacking, which is why everyone banded together and suggested that she wear a bright red cross at all times. That way, at least, they would be able to see her coming!Product DetailsDeciding to dress up as one of the most iconic heroines of all of history is a great idea, so it is a good thing you found this Women's Plus Size Florence Nightingale Costume!

Your fabulous goblet will continuously be filled with the loveliest wines. Maybe you can even get someone to invite you to a luxurious bathhouse.

It's belted with a black fabric with gold embroidery that matches the gold and black armbands and the border around the hem.

Your little one is the stoutest knight in the land, and a stout knight needs a solid suit of armor. Equip them with this Valiant Knight Costume before they head out on their next epic quest, and they'll be ready for any foe with whom they cross paths!At first glance, knights may just seem like any old soldier from medieval times, riding into battle in a suit of shiny armor and getting into sword duels with villains. But there's actually a lot more to being a valiant knight who can save the day against the bleakest of odds, which your kid may be preparing for as we speak. Perhaps you've noticed your wee-knight training for a life of excitement and honor (possibly with the family dog acting as their squire) in the backyard. They might be using a stick in place of a trusty longsword, but they can still fight against ferocious beasts and protect defenseless townsfolk from certain doom!Product DetailsA knight of such gallantry needs armor worthy of their deeds, and this costume is the perfect attire for the task. The chain mail hood is made of metallic knit mesh, resembling real steel mail, while the foam gauntlets have the look of heavy metal armor, without being heavy or clunky. Add a fierce looking toy sword and shield to go with your knight's chivalrous new garb, and songs will be sung for ages about their daring exploits!
How to Attract CustomersStrolling through the market, you can’t help but notice fellow merchant’s clothing. The fancier the dress, the larger the crowd and the bigger the merchant’s smile. You can almost see the dollar signs in their eyes. But, you’re not sure what they’re selling is any better than the less stylish seller in the next stall. It’s probably not.

Life as a PioneerThe pioneers were brave people. A picturesque life on the prairie included all sorts of dangers. Relentlessly hot summers gave way to brutally cold winters. People would look up from their work when and see a wall of prairie fires headed toward their farm, growing taller with each foot of grass that was consumed. Then there were the terrifying swarms of locusts that not only ate the crops but would devour the clothes and the clothes line if the laundry hadn't been brought in fast enough.So why, after all that trouble, do we remember the days of the pioneer so fondly? It was a time of hope. Those people with limited options who had only known the crowded city streets of coastal cities could find a place where they could watch the sunset and rise on an open horizon. They could build something all their own and truly be free. The communities out there were the definition of tightly knit. And how awesome would it have been to travel by covered wagon?Product DetailsWhen your daughter dresses as in this dress, she'll feel as free as that pioneer girl collecting herbs and roots on the prairie. You can almost imagine the larks singing in the grasses as she spins around in the long skirt. Whether she's starring as the charming Laura Ingalls Wilder for in the school play or the whole family is headed to a Rendezvous, this costume will make you feel sentimental for that sun-washed, simple time. One thing is for sure, it's hard not to get into character in this ensemble. Next thing you know she'll want to trade in her tablet for hoop and stick game.
King of the Wild FrontierAre you ready to head into the wild west? As long as you steer clear of the most dangerous and unpredictable beasts in this unchartered region, you should be fine. What's that beast? Mankind of course! They're a tricky kind of animal. The other animals are easier to get along with. Lions, tigers, bears... Davey had it all under control. Fighting a cougar is no problem at all. No tricks, no deceptions. Give him a penknife and cougars better beware! Davey even killed a bear when he was three. Sad, but we're sure the bear deserved it. It probably stole one too many picnic baskets. Those were a valuable asset back in the day! And sure, if you really push him he'll deal with the most dangerous animal out there. He actually took his buckskins to Congress to serve a spell "fixin' up the Government and laws". No wonder he was crowned king of the wild frontier, this man's got skills!Product Details & DesignEmbrace the old West with this wild Made by Us costume. The top has a faux suede with fringe around the square collar around the chest. The sleeves and the hem are also trimmed with thick fringe.

There's gold in them thar hills!It’s been countless years since you turned your back on civilization to go make your fortune. Your beard is down to your knees, your shirt has more holes than a wheel of Swiss cheese, and you’ve had it up to here with wrestling bears. But you just know that the oil is out there somewhere. You wipe your brow as you look up to the unforgiving desert sun, hike up your pants, and give your pickaxe one more swing before calling it a day.A brief calm melts before the ground below you begins to swell and rumble. Thin ebony rivulets start to puddle at your feet. This is the moment you’ve waited for. You bound out of your hole just in the nick of time as the earth beneath erupts into a geyser of black gold. Texas tea. Oil, that is. You sprint to the nearest town to stake your claim, and in only a few months you’re tanning beside the pool at your seaside mansion. Not bad for someone who dropped out of 1st grade, right?Design & DetailsOur Prospector Costume will let you live out this roughneck vision of the American dream, back when fortunes were made in the real wilderness rather than the concrete jungle. After wearing this once you may just contemplate trading in your minivan for a burro and setting off for the Sierra Madre. What could be better than that? Bears aside, of course. So many bears.
But wherefore do not you a mightier wayMake war upon this bloody tyrant, Time?And fortify your self in your decayWith means more blessed than my barren rhyme?- William ShakespeareWe all want to be remembered for something. But that tyrant Time works constantly to erase the memory of our work and deeds.

That sucks, doesn't it?We don't mean to inspire in you any sort of existential dread. We only mean to inspire you to action! Like role-playing the part of one of the most prominent people and minds in the short history of the United States. A top, ever-influential diplomat, a sharp-witted writer and biographer, a dizzyingly productive inventor—Benjamin Franklin has so far fought that tyrant Time with valiance.

The first time you wear it, ask if anyone has seen your ID in their wallet—and if you walk away $100 richer, let us know it worked.
Haters are gonna hate, and kings? Well, kings are probably going to be haters. It's not enough that they get to rule... the power usually goes to their heads, and well, once your monarch stops acting in the best interest of the people, it might just be time to get rid of him outright.And that's why we recommend using this HalloweenCostumes.com exclusive wig to turn yourself into a legendary King Slayer.

Terrific TrailblazerAnyone can notice injustice and dream of having a better world. It takes a person with a courageous heart and a fighting spirit to work to make a change and become a force for good. Ida B. Wells' passion for the truth and her desire to help her people helped her to stand up for the voiceless and secured her place in history. She touched not only her friends' lives but the lives of future generations.Product DetailsEmulate your favorite historical hero when you wear your Girl's Ida B. Wells Costume Dress! The long dress fastens at the back of the stand-up collar and is made of deep blue polyester jersey knit fabric. An elastic waistband gives the old-fashioned dress some newfangled comfort. The center of the bodice is decorated with columns of pleated black ribbon. The wide blue belt fastens at the back and can be adjusted for length. Pair it with your favorite hat, a set of buttoned heels, and don't forget plenty of paper for note-taking! You never know when you'll stumble on an incredible story. Pen, Paper, Freedom Whoever first said that the pen is mightier than the sword knew what they were talking about! With words written in ink, Ida B. Wells helped to create an entire movement that sought justice and equal rights for all. Her commitment to speaking out despite lots of attempts to silence her proves that not all heroes wear capes. Some wear long gowns, button-up boots, and carry a notebook full of incredible ideas!
How does a post-apocalyptic coachman travel to his next steam engine convention? Why, in top-notch steampunk style, of course!We have to admit, we do not always fully “get” the steampunk aesthetic. Cerebrally, it just doesn’t make sense--is it the look of the future, or of the past? But not getting it doesn’t stop us from loving it! It’s so cool. Whenever we see a really awesome steampunk outfit, we understand that true steampunk style is elusive and difficult to capture in words. So if you want to make your ensemble speak volumes about your favorite trend, this durable Brown Suede Coachman Hat will be a huge help! Remember, a well dressed gentleman should never leave home without his hat--and we’re pretty sure that rule is as applicable in the distant future as it was back when steam engines were just hitting the scene!
The Vikings… warriors, artists, adventurers… They had a pretty easy set of rules for achieving greatness in life and the afterlife: be great! Prove oneself through combat and keep a blade at your side, live and die in valor and find your way to that glorious table at the foot of the gods, preparing for the mightiest of all Final Battles. And, if the culture and bravery of its warriors aren’t enough, just look at their rather efficient set of deities. Those Norse gods mean business! Odin promised no frost giants on Midgard and, sure enough, we are bereft of any such terrifying denizens of the other worlds.But, even though the days of Vikings sailing from one place to another in a bounding and exploratory quest might be over, their legends still echo throughout our time. Between varied incarnations of the mighty god of thunder and popularized icons of their culture throughout our own, we realize that Ragnarok still approaches. The end days and the final battle may yet be upon us any day!Do not disappoint the Valkyries who will decide who joins at the grand table and who will simply fade from memory. Join in the fight at Ragnarok with this Adult Viking Warrior costume. A comfortable pullover netted black and silver tunic combined with the faux leather chest armor with brilliant silver studs gets you armored and ready to deflect any attacks from your pitiful enemies. Faux fur gauntlets, shin guards, and a studded belt keep your extremities well guarded and, of course, what Viking would be worth its wrath without a helmet! But, it isn’t enough just to be armored like a warrior. Let’s go the whole road and sit you at the head of the table as a warrior lord with this velvet cape with faux fur trim. Add your favorite Viking Axe or Sword and the Valkyries won’t be able to resist carrying you to the head of the great feast.
Southern Charm Does the everyday grind have you feeling down? Why not choose a total change of pace? Time to get gussied up in your finest hoopskirt, poofy dress, and matching gloves before you swan off to watch the races! You can drink endless mint juleps and lemonades, and flirt with all the most dashing men (although those mutton chop sideburns may take some getting used to). It's a tough job being a societal ornament, but someone has to do it! Product DetailsCharm the socks off any Rhett Butler types when you wear this exclusive Southern Belle Costume for Women! The floor-length gown zips up the back and is made cream-colored muslin that's printed all over with a beautiful floral pattern.

The tiered skirt is edged in matching ribbon and dark red lace, and features a built-in petticoat. No Shrinking Violet Now, you may be asking yourself, "Does dressing up as a fine lady mean having to watch what I say?" To this, we say, "Fiddle dee dee!"

To help you live your best debutante life, we designed this gown to look amazing without needing a corset. Because how can you deliver clever "bless your heart" one-liners if your ribs are being crushed? You're so welcome.
Sweet Sky SailingWant to hear our hot take on flying? We think the idea of airplanes has held back our imagination when it comes to flying? Before the Wright Brothers took their flying contraption in the air, the skies were much more capricious! Victorians were floating around in colorful air balloons and inventing machines like the (admittedly dangerous) zeppelin. But what if we went back to ideation mode? You could become the pilot of a hovering bubble that free-floated 10 feet in the air. Or you could zoom through the sky in a bird puppet formed from wax paper and lightweight wires. The ideas don't have to work, you just have to dream it up! Inspire your wild pilot costume with exciting accessories like this pair of rainbow goggles!Product DetailsThis cool pair of goggles is ready to fly! Strapping onto the head with a wide strip of length-adjustable elastic, the goggles are lined with foam for comfort. The goggles may have a smoky, colorful lens but they are not UV proof, so be careful with those sunny days! Flight of FancyAre you ready to take flight with an extra twist of fashion? This costume accessory easily pairs with traditional pilot costumes or a steampunk ensemble for an updated take on your hot air balloon day dreams!

Transform yourself into this now beloved post-impressionist painter and your Halloween celebrations will be much more than just another starry night. This vibrant and expressive guise will make you one of the most influential figures in the history of costume parties.Design & DetailEach piece of this costume is a work of art in itself. Once you put it all together you become an astounding masterpiece.Your artistic transformation will begin with a jacket. It will seem to be painted upon your person with expressive brush strokes. The jacket is colored with mostly blues accented with orange. It also has blends of the two and hints of white to make it bright and dim in all the right places. When you add the vibrant shirt-front along with the necktie to the outfit, they are perfectly accentuated by the much darker jacket. Finally, top this costume off with the hat that holds a mixture of the colors from the other parts of the costume.Why stop there? Take a look at our accessories and grab some face paint as well as a red beard if you can’t grow your own. The fancy frame is also not included but it would make a wonderful addition to your transformation!We Can Picture it NowThough he was never recognized during his lifetime, Vincent had accomplished so much in such a short-lived career. So imagine everything you can do in just one night dressed as this famous painter. From starting an artistic movement on the dance floor to being recognized as a masterpiece in the costume contest. All this fun and more will be yours to have when you become a self-portrait of the illustrious Van Gogh.
Damsel of DistressSee the misty peak of dragon mountain, yonder? They say there's a maiden who's trapped by the wretched beast up there. She weeps day and night, waiting for a prince to save her. Yeah, no. Not this maiden you see here. She's not in distress, she causes distress. She'd like to watch you try to stick her in a high tower somewhere. It would give her a reason to exercise her sword hand.The Medieval times were not a good era for ladies and maidens alike. They were either expected to stay inside, sew, and keep quiet or they were getting kidnapped and trapped in one way or another. Snow White was choked by an apple. Sleeping Beauty was thrown into a coma. And when they were freed they were expected to commit to their rescuer for the rest of their lives. That doesn't sound great. Rewrite history and become the gallant heroine with this tough yet gorgeous armored gown!Product Details & DesignAre you ready to transform into a valiant and fashionable warrior? You'll love the exclusive look that our designers put together. This Made-By-Us costume has detailed, swirling elements as well as tough looking armor throughout the look. You'll love the metallic waist detail that matches the gauntlets, chest, and shoulder detail. The skirt is framed with swirling elements along the hem, complimenting the center stripe. It's My Party I can Battle-Cry If I Want ToOr you ready to prove that not all ladies are going to stay in waiting? Go ahead and slay that dragon yourself. That means you get to keep one hundred percent of the lizard's loot. That's a pretty good deal. And hey, if you run into one of the knights that are headed up to save yonder fair maiden, you can let him tag along on the way back down the mountain. After all, there might be a few dangers on the way back!
Wealth Redistribution, but Make It CoolLook, it's really the fault of Prince John and his Sheriff of Nottingham. Besides raising taxes far too high, they also use the worst possible means of money transfer. Anyone who sees those huge coaches filled with gold rolling through Sherwood Forest is bound to feel like swiping some. And not only do you steal it, but you give it back to the people who had it in the first place. No one will feel like turning Mr. Popular Robber in to the authorities after such generous derring-do. Product DetailsReach legend status in this exclusive Plus Size Deluxe Robin Hood Costume for Men! Perfect for a rough-and-tumble lifestyle, the long-sleeved top is designed to look like a brown vest worn over a cream-colored shirt. The vest portion is decorated with a lace-up neckline and metal rivets, while the sleeves look amazing when tucked into the faux leather wristbands. Buckle the faux leather belt around your waist and tie the green hooded cape around your neck to finish your outfit. Merry Mischief Thwart the greedy king and his tight-fisted henchmen together with your gang of outlaws! Feel free to get a few friends to dress like you and join your team, or be a lone hero fighting for the people (and looking amazing while doing it). May we suggest, however, that if you show off your archery skills, you do so outside? The interior of a party probably isn't he best place to demonstrate your ability to split an arrow with another arrow.
What we do in life... echoes in eternity.So says General Maximus at the beginning of the classic Ridley Scott film, Gladiator. While that is some expertly written and memorable dialogue, we hope it's also a true statement. But we have no idea! What do we look like, metaphysicists?? We don't know what happens in eternity! But if our life echoes within it, we're glad you're taking a look at this officially licensed General Maximus costume, because it's epic enough to wear forever.The only thing we'd advise against is getting into any actual Roman battles wearing this thing. It's made of latex and not metal as it appears. That being said, you could probably frighten some barbarians with it, but we don't really recommend that either. That would require a costly trip to Germany, and also a time machine to around 180AD. That's also where you'd have to go to get the real version of this armor. Since that technology doesn't exist, we think our version is an amazing first realistic choice!Since this costume has incredible details and quality (How about that realistic armor and fur trimmed cape? It's straight out of the movie!) we think you should go to a party, wait for the exact right moment, then step up into the spotlight and give an incredible, awe-inspiring speech to all your fellow party-goers. That's what Maximus would do! You'll be remembered in poetry and song as the greatest general Rome had ever seen... to give a rousing speech while holding a red Solo cup."Brothers! What we drink tonight... will echo in our bodies tomorrow, and possibly eternity!"*drink responsibly
Are you ready to rule the Viking horde? The men have had the run of things for long enough, so we think it's time for a shieldmaiden to break the ranks, challenge the king, and finally grab the top spot in the Viking hierarchy. There's no saying what could happen when you're in charge, but first things first... we're going to have to upgrade your look! Since your battle garb isn't quite going to cut it when you're challenging for the throne, let us suggest trying out this Dark Viking Dress for your future reign!This elegant full length dress will have you standing out whether you're running the kingdom or setting sail across the sea to plunder and raid. The fur shawl is sure to let everyone know that you still know how to kick butt, but with elegant brocade trim, nordic inspired jewelry, and a stunning red sash to finish off the ensemble, we won't blame you if you just want to sit back in the lap of luxury and let the berserkers and shieldmaidens do all of the dirty work for you.This HalloweenCostumes.com exclusive dress is made and designed right here by us, and if we may say so, it's a pretty good way to fulfill any Viking dreams you may have. Whether you're planning a historical reenactment or just want to be one of your favorite historical characters, this costume will have you ready to rule the great hall... with a huge party!
A KNIGHT OF WHICH REALM?Just because a martial fighter wears a set of armor doesn't mean that anyone knows anything for sure about them. Without a set of pretty clear heraldry, they could be anybody. And, especially if they pull the helm over their head? Well, then you've got practically zero chance. How else do you think that the lady warriors, lowborn fighters, and royal heirs alike prove themselves in jousts only to reveal their face amidst the gasps of the crowd!?Knights come in all types from the armored assassin, chivalric rider, dragon hunter, or royally anointed ser. But which will you be? Are you part of an order of proud paladins who face down darkness at every turn? Maybe one of those round table knights of Camelot legend! Perhaps you'll be a lone ronin with a tragic and complicated backstory that so few of the monsters you face are willing to wait and listen to... (Or are you just hunting for a shrubbery?)DESIGN & DETAILSNo matter which tale you hold in your heart, you must gird your form with proud armor! Our own smiths suffered apprenticeships with Wayland the Weird, himself, just to ensure that this high-quality and shiny armor would meet your mettle with this Royal Knight Costume. Begin with a tunic of silver mesh worn under a complete set of shiny foam-backed plates that cover your torso, hips, and collar. The matching leg covers fit with elastic while the gloves and helmet finish your knightly armor. Complete the look with your foam pauldrons and the attached red cape and you might not even need your sword and horse! (Who are we kidding? You'll want a sword. The horse might be more difficult to get into the adventuring party.)WHAT'S YOUR KNIGHTLY NAME?Once you've got your flawless knight style and backstory figured out, you will need your name! What title (and how many of them you have) is almost as important as which vicious beasts you've beaten. We recommend something like Ser Belvedere of the Grand Lochs, Champion of the Crusade, Beater of Beasts, and Taker of Names.
There's only one way to look like a million bucks. You have to wear an outfit that looks like you had to have spent a million bucks on it. We're not sure about you, but we are pretty sure you don't quite have that kind of cash hanging around the house. You probably wouldn't be looking at this particular top hat to impress everyone in the world. Or maybe you are the people with a million bucks, but have realized those expensive top hats just aren't as worth it as you thought.We're not really here to judge our customers though. We'd much rather outfit them with a fantastic costume. No matter what your life is, we promise hat this hat will get your look to at least a solid 500,000 dollars, guaranteed. How'd that for a start? Now you just need your shirt, pants, and shoes to add up to the second half of your million, and you'll be set to hit up the town.
The Goddess Awakens High above the world, a powerful force is stirring. It disappeared over the horizon last night, but now it is back with its warm, golden rays and its sparkling light. Yes, it's the sun rising into the blue sky and bathing everything in its majesty! But the sun is not just another hot ball of gas - far from it. It is a beautiful yet mighty being that demands respect and awe! Product DetailsLook radiantly lovely in this exclusive Sun Goddess Costume for Women! The bright yellow jersey knit dress has a halter neckline and a chiffon top layer. A jagged-cut wraparound overlay of glittery golden vinyl fastens behind your waist and falls flatteringly across the top of the skirt in an asymmetrical line. The golden metallic mesh cape also has a jagged hemline. Add the sun-shaped crown to top it all off! Approach, Ye Mortals The ancient Greeks knew what was up: They liked to leave presents for the sun (who they mistakenly thought was a dude, but oh well) to ensure that it would bless them and never fade. This sun also enjoys nice gifts. Chocolate is encouraged. Cute shoes are a must - you wear out a lot of heels racing from one side of the sky to the other. It's not like you would punish anyone who didn't leave you nice things, but let's just say that you can either deal with a lot of gloomy fog and misty rain, or you can make sure that the sun likes you enough to stick around.
Your kiddo has become quite the history buff, hasn’t he? There sure are a lot of people throughout the history of the United States to look up too, but one of our favorite historic icons would have to be Theodore Roosevelt! He was a Rough Rider, one of the most celebrated presidents, and even has his face carved into the side of a cliff alongside other American heroes. Not to mention everybody’s original cuddle buddy, the Teddy Bear is named after President Roosevelt! If all that doesn’t make a guy role model material, we have no clue what would!Everything depicted in this picture other than the toy rifle and satchel is included with this costume. As soon as your little one secures this bush jacket and pulls up these presidential slacks, he’ll look like a real rough rider himself! The easy-stick mustache and wire-rimmed glasses will have your kiddo looking exactly like ole Teddy. Before you know it, your youngster will be working on novels and making plans to open up new national parks all around the United States. Roosevelt was always a very ambitious man and you can bet your bottom dollar that if your little one is looking up to this historic figure, plenty of grit and determination will fill his soul.Grab this Theodore Roosevelt Costume for your kiddo and let his history-fueled Halloween adventure begin. The real Teddy may have not actually ridden a moose but with enough gumption and can-do attitude, we believe that your little one can accomplish something that even the famed president never did!
When your neighborhood erupts into a brutal battlefield, how will you react? Will you cower under your kitchen table, or will you take up arms and soar onto the battlefield like a beautiful Valkyrie of Norse legend? Yeah, the second options seems way better. Who wants to sit on the bleachers when there's a whole army of enemies to face in combat? Of course, you're going to need a reliable weapon to deal the finishing blow to your foes and you're going to need a sturdy shield to block enemy attacks!Okay, so maybe this Valiant Knight Sword & Shield combo might not exactly protect you from the vicious blows of a real battle, since it's just a toy. It does, however, let you gain the appearance of a valiant warrior from a distant land filled with fantasy, magic, dragons and convoluted plot lines. If you're a LARPer, then it adds that extra zing to your outfit. And if you just like toy swords and shields, well, then this pair is everything you could ask.
Clothes Make the ManNo! Crowns make the man. This crown, in fact, makes you into a Viking King. Or Jarl. Or Chief. Or whatever the rest of your costume says about you. Hmm… ok, we admit that clothes influence the initial impression of the man somewhat, but nonetheless, we maintain that crowns are also very powerful in terms of first impressions. So there.Besides, who ever heard of someone taking control of vast armies without a crown? Well, we suppose the President of the United States doesn’t wear one… or any generals… Ok, we admit that that was another bad example, but nonetheless! We adamantly oppose the idea of allowing costumes to remain incomplete. It’s just not right.Hordes of HoardsOne of the best features of a crown is that it implies that you’re either fabulously wealthy or immensely powerful. Whichever it may be in reality, you will certainly be the target of many curious courtiers wondering whether you have hordes of terrifying pillagers, or hoards of tantalizing coin.I’m Viking that CrownHere’s another thing people will say! Get it?! Viking?? Liking?? Well, in our office poll at Halloweencostumes.com, 3 out of 100 people thought that this was a funny pun (yes, it was us).

This will be the third assault in as many days, but you are sure that your garrison will hold once again.Your ballistae, mules, and Roman brethren will make the Germans pay for their audacity. Today will be another glorious day for Rome. Holding your pilum in your hand, you watch your cohorts form up in front of the gates, preparing for the assault.

I Cannot Tell a LieAre you ready to help your little dude learn about the first president of the new United States, George Washington? Has your little guy already read the biographies? Does he often dream of marching with minutemen in funny uniforms? Or does he simply appreciate history? We have a thing or two for him, then! It’s one of those funny uniforms! In fact, it’s an entire ensemble: a jacket with an attached vest, pantaloons, a scarf, and, of course, the iconic tricorn hat.Design & DetailsSynonymous with Revolutionary War-era style, few know it was borne out of mere practicality. In rainy weather, it both protected the person’s face and funneled water out of the back, over one’s shoulders. While raingear has evolved quite a lot since then, you can still procure this signature style with our exclusive Colonial Kid’s Costume. Because it’s one of our Made By Us costumes, you can sleep well knowing that each stitch was tended to with care, much like the early colonial farms. The fabrics are faux suede and satin and the jacket comes equipped with decorative buttons at the center-front and two false pocket flaps. The pants come with a neat elastic waistband and cuffs that end just below the knees. And finally, we put a wire in the tricorn hat’s brim edge to maintain shape. Doesn’t that sound nice? We think George Washington would be proud. Who knows what will happen. Maybe it will be the first step in a long journey toward the United States presidency!
An Electric IdeaThere are many mysteries in the world that simply demand being solved, and we get to be thankful that Ben Franklin was around to help in figuring out a pretty big chunk of them. Now, most know Ben for 'inventing' electricity. And, of course, he didn't create it... but he did come up with all the terms that we're still using today. Who else would have thought to combine the value of a lightning rod with the fun of flying kites and shocking yourself!? But, is that truly his ultimate offering to the world?Consider the shorter folks in the world. Who has the energy to grab a stepping stool every time that you want to get a book? "Nobody!" was the proud answer of our favorite founding father. He knew that folks would one day need a Selfie Stick and that short people everywhere deserved assistance with a longer arm. So, it was to the inventing desk for Ben! In honor of those inventions, our Made by Us team did the same for him. Design & DetailsHop back to the colonial days in the best way possible with this Benjamin Franklin costume. Our in-house team created this design to look authentic while still feeling comfy. (You wouldn't want too many stray fibers while trying out your electrifying experiments, after all.) The ensemble includes a jacket with decorative buttons and attached vest panels to imitate a layered look. The knee-length pants and neck scarf complete your colonial transformation. Add your favorite accessories to tell your favorite Franklin story. The Key to Halloween FunYou don't have to try to reinvent the lightning rod to stand out like Ben Franklin. With this colonial look, you can feel the same hair-raising energy as the legendary lightning bolt on the kite. Grab some bifocals and a balding wig and you're ready to discover the secrets of fun this season.

Mother of RomeWhen Venus gave birth to Aeneus’ ancestor, she never thought her actions would have so much impact on the world at large! From that one line came many descendants, including all those who founded the city of Rome on its seven hills.As if that weren’t enough, Aeneus’ travels led him through wonderful Carthage, where he met, loved, and then spurned the queen, Dido, whose subsequent suicide at his departure created an everlasting enmity between those two peoples.
