Battle isn't all about offense there, buster.

So, whether you're headed into pretend battles, or you just want to look like a glorious Valkyrie, then this shield is exactly what you want in your off-hand.
It's Hero Time! "Hail, Caesar! We, about to die, salute thee!" Whoa, depressing much? Not really. Those gladiators were just covering their bases. Obviously they planned to defeat their enemies, impress the crowds, become a mighty hero and all that jazz, but...their opponents were usually huge tigers who hadn't been fed in a week and were starting to think that a nice, muscle-bound gladiator might be a tasty snack. Or a huge criminal who had been promised his freedom if he could bash in enough gladiator heads. So, just in case, the gladiators made sure to salute the throne like it was the last thing they'd ever do. Fortunately for you, you've got the right equipment and skills - you'll be a hero for sure! Product DetailsEmerge victorious from an epic struggle and become Caesar's champion with these Studded Gladiator Cuffs for Men! These molded cuffs are embellished with a cool spike design and will keep your wrists safe from the swords and spears of your opponents (imaginary, of course). The Mightiest FighterBefore there was the WWE, there were gladiators! Suit up as an ancient warrior and complete an amazing costume with these awesome cuffs.

Queen of KattegatSome queens are known for sitting on a comfy throne. They bark orders and they live lavish lives, indulging in their vices, while their people do all of the queen's dirty work.

Big Sky Day DreamsCan you imagine what it would have been like to be a child on the prairies, traveling with a covered wagon convoy? A journey by wagon was shaky and uncomfortable so women and children walked along with the oxen, running wild with children from the other families, dogs nipping at their heels, keeping them together. We're sure it was hard work, keeping everyone fed and safe. But it would have been such an adventure for the kids! It's said that the grass of the prairies was long and endless, the wind would make it blow back and forth like waves in the ocean.

Action HeroIn comic books, superheroes save the day quickly. There's a big "Pow" followed by a "Kurthwop" and "Yoink". But for real-life heroes, the fight lasts a lot longer than a panel. Often, the fight lasts a lifetime. For Susan B Anthony, that fight started when she attended a suffragette event with her family and the age of twenty-eight. She was instantly inspired. Soon, she was the one making speeches but that's not all. She wrote articles, organized marches, and eventually, she was arrested for defying authority and casting her ballot in an election. Some people would have assumed going to jail would stop a proper Victorian woman but Susan knew her arrest simply brought more attention to her cause. Susan B Anthony didn't let anyone or anything stop her until her death in her late eighties. If fifty-eight years of devoted social action doesn't make you an action hero, what does?Design & DetailsThe perfect way to celebrate Susan B. Anthony's cause, this suffragette costume would have looked right at place on the streets of 19th Century New York. Designed by our creative team, this dress zips up the back yet has historical details that any young history buff will delight in such as the decorative buttons up one side of the skirt and the ruffled high neckline. A purple and green banner with "Votes for Women" is draped over the bodice and a matching button is attached to the breast. A wide brim hat finishes the whole look off, making sure that your little suffragette is ready to march, no matter the weather. Girl PowerIf your child loves the women leaders of history, celebrating Susan B. Anthony is a great place to start. A great costume for school projects, Victorian fairs, and even Halloween, your child is sure to do Susan proud as she continues to fight for the rights of women around the world!
Long before there were awesome things to watch on modern TV, like pro wrestling, epic summer movies, and binge-able television shows, people had to get creative to stay entertained. Otherwise, they might have died of boredom, which considering how much easier it was to kick the bucket in ancient times, was probably a legit possibility. However, a citizen in Ancient Rome could always take a trip to the local arena to see a gladiator fight, which would liven up a dull afternoon in no time! Though back in those days, if your attention couldn't even be held by watching two dudes in flashy armor get into a bloody brawl, you could test your prowess by stepping into the arena, yourself. It wouldn't be our first choice for entertainment (since gladiators had notoriously short careers...), but if you have an unquenchable thirst for action, a life in the arena might be your ticket to glory!In the modern age, battling to the death for sport is usually frowned upon. But when you're wearing this Plus Size Roman Gladiator Costume, you'll have the look of a fearless ancient warrior, so you can fight for honor in a new type of arena. Yes, we're talking about costume contests, which aren't nearly as gruesome as classic gladiator fights, but can be just as ruthless, and the stakes just as high! This striking costume features nearly everything you'll need to get the edge over your opponents, including foam and faux suede leather-like armor pieces. With this fierce, ancient style aiding your quest for glory, you'll be the undisputed champion of the costume contest colosseum!

Lily of the NileTwo things go into the making of a legendary ruler. One is an impressive sense of strategy. The other is an iconic style. It's pretty clear that Cleopatra had both! She was able to intimidate and conquer, but she was also able to make wearing a golden serpent crown look like #fashiongoals. We respect that a lot. Product DetailsRule over ancient Egypt while wearing your Women's Cleopatra Costume Headband Accessory! The gold braid headband fits snugly around the crown of your head with an elastic band at the back, and is embellished with bright aquamarine faux jewels.

Ever wish you could just switch off the modern world and lead a simpler life? You know the kind we're talking about. No iPhone, no emails, no Facebook, no tweets to catch up on.

THE PROPHECY BEGINSOur office Seer doesn't usually have a ton to say. To be honest, a bunch of us are beginning to wonder why we even keep her around. "Trent of the number counters feasts upon the quarry of the unwary" is hardly a world-shattering insight... though it did help us realize where all our lunches were going. However, we know she's serious when she starts bringing up the All-Father and says that a warrior of legend is about to sail from our docks!So, we're getting everything ready for the new Earl (and maybe even King). That means preparing a whole fleet of ships for all the trips out west and plenty of ingredients for the various feasts that we know we'll be having. (Don't worry. Trent isn't helping out with that part of the preparation!) Anyway, you best get ready for some of the craziest adventure that you can imagine, because you're going to last at least four seasons when you set out with us! DESIGN & DETAILSThe Seer has spoken and our clan designers have raided at least a dozen settlements to gather enough materials for this officially licensed Ragnar Lothbrok Costume. This exclusive look includes everything you need to step into the role of the protagonist of Vikings. Start with an embossed tunic and matching belt that each look like worn leather. (Can't have you looking like this is your first fight, after all!) The pants have an elastic waist for easy wear and the boot covers are laser cut to look like leather plates! Get yourself an axe and shield and you might not even need the aid of the gods.WATCH OUT FOR BLIND DRIVERSOnce you go to fulfill the prophecy as Ragnar, we recommend that you watch out for some of those warnings. Especially in modern days, a blind taxi driver is a dangerous route to take! You don't want this Ragnar Costume lasting longer than you do, after all.
The Diligent DebaterAlexander Hamilton wasn't a fan of him. He butted heads with John Adams on many different subjects. He also liked to get into squabbles with Ben Franklin! But the American people? Well, they seemed to like him just fine back in 1797. After George Washington served his term as President of the United States, the people voted him into the office to make him the second man to become the POTUS! He truly helped to shape the beginning of the U.S.If your child wants to share their historical knowledge, or if they want to help shape their next school pageant, then this John Adams Costume for kids is an easy choice!

The white cravat fits around your child's neck to give them a presidential aura! The brown pants match the jacket and feature an elastic waist to provide a comfy fit. Finally, the costume includes a faux suede tricorn hat. Once your child has it on, they'll be ready to debate Alexander Hamilton in a heated discussion about politics!
THE LEGENDE OF THE MAIDEN FAYREThere are few things more magical than the idea of whisking back to the past and living out a dream of a medieval fantasy. About the only thing that can compare is bringing your kiddo along for the ride. Just imagine the tale that you both will craft. Picture the young lass: a noble princess whose words can tame the ferocious dragon; a crafty maiden who can turn an outlaw into a hero; or perhaps the faerie queen who is ready to brandish bow and blade, herself! The joy of the Renaissance is in reinvention, so coming up with the mighty tale of your adorable actor is going to be half the fun of your happy holiday. The other half is going to be acting it all out! Your tyke will need to know all the period performance tricks.

Our team of designers practically live at the Renaissance Festival and have this exclusive Maiden Costume that will have your kid feeling like a true to life fairy princess.

Not a PrincessWhile remaining a popular costume for kids, the life of a princess has never been easy throughout history. As long as one was a princess, there were extreme expectations for your behavior and education. You had to learn to become a diplomate as well as the model for all the young ladies in the kingdom. That might mean grinning and bearing it while your father, the king, creates a new religion so that he can annul his marriage to your mother effectively disinheriting you from the throne. This Queen Elizabeth the First Costume is not for a pretty princess, it's for a powerful matriarch. Design & DetailsOur creative team assigned this design to our resident history buff to create a costume that's worthy of Queen Elizabeth yet affordable by modern standards. This being said, you'll find delightful details within this costume. For instance, the fitted sleeves are trimmed in sheer ruffles and layered under dramatic draped outer sleeves. Queen Elizabeth’s trademark stand-up collar is kept in place with stiff foam covered in the same brocade of the gown to make sure that your character is instantly recognizable. Zipping up the back, you won’t have to depend on a team of servants to slip into this iconic historic costume. And if you want to go above and beyond, add an over-the-top red wig and pale makeup to complete the Queen's aesthetic. Power UpQueen Elizabeth had to deal with getting left in the lurch for many years throughout her teens and young adulthood. Her road to the throne was not a simple one. But once this matriarch became queen, she not only took the throne, she captured the hearts and imaginations of England. While she ruled over 400 years ago, we still are looking up to her royal air. Are you ready to channel this royal icon? Slip into this Made by Us costume to leave your princess garb behind and become a queen!

Ancient KittyOf all the animal kingdoms animals, Mother Nature bestowed the felines with some serious regality; it’s just no wonder the Egyptians deduced that cats were connected to a higher power. Cats do what they want, when they want, and they do it with confidence. It doesn’t matter where a cat is hanging out, or what time of day it is. Give a cat access to YouTube HQ and it would delete everyone’s videos before knocking the CEO’s pen off the desk. We like to imagine the cats of the Nile getting tangled up in the mummifying gauze and looking up at the dignified priests like, “what are you going to do about it?”Design & DetailsChanneling this energy, the feline goddess Bastet owned every room she entered. She was, in other words, a boss. She ensured the mothers of Egypt were taken care of with watchful eyes. She made sure the rodents of Egypt didn’t eat the spoils of the fertile crescent. In some circles, she even got the impressive, war-like title of protector of Egypt. We like to think that all cat-lovers have Bastet inside them somewhere. We know your little one does too. So if you want to let her sharpen those claws, our Bastet Goddess Costume for Girls will be perfect for her. It’s one of our exclusive Made By Us collection, so you can sleep well knowing that love and care went into every stitch of your little one’s new costume.Walk Like an Egyptian CatIt’s about time we put imbue cats with the respect they once had (and deserve)! No more embarrassing cats with YouTube videos of them getting caught in blinds or bouncing off walls after getting their fill of catnip. Bastet—erm, we mean your little one in this Bastet costume—will set it right.

Whenever they're depicted on old pots, in the ruins of ancient mosaics, and carved into stones flanking historic cities, they are bedecked with fancy tall feathered helmets. Their fancy demeanor doesn't stop with their headgear. Their look extends to their carved leather armor, the shining metal gauntlets on their arms, and finely decorated shin guards. With all this finery, there's no way Greek and Roman soldiers would have let their footwear fall to the wayside. What's the point of polishing your bronze chest piece if you're planning on slipping on sneakers before mounting your chariot?Product DetailsWhether you're dressing up as a well to do empress or a dangerous gladiator, this classic ancient sandal is key.

Back in the day, taverns weren't just cozy bars with quaint names, they were rough and tumble places! And that's why every tavern needed a fair maiden. She'd be there not only to sweep up the filth-strewn straw and collect the silver for the drinks but to add an air of civility to the atmosphere. She'd encourage people to sing a distracting ditty before two burly knights could challenge one another to a duel over who got to sit on the stool with four legs. She'd usher the local well-loved outlaw out the back door just as the Sherrif sauntered in. This is all to say, the simple tavern maiden is the Meddeival diplomat!You'll look the part when you're wearing this sassy costume. Perfect for plays, Rennaissance fairs, and costume parties alike, this costume is the perfect balance of sweet and salty! The skirt has two layers with an olive green and maroon striped underlayer and a fresh green overskirt that hits at mid leg. The included black belt can cinch up your skirt for easy manuvering. Your look is topped with the off-shoulder peasant blouse and faux leather corset with cream-colored ribbons. Whether you're serving nobles and peasants, we're sure that they'll appreciate your perfect pours. Par this look with a beer stein and wig to make your transformation complete. You'll be glad you outfitted yourself with this classic look at the Renaissance festival or for your next costumed event. Just remember, you're an essential part of the tavern experience!
Why can’t the post-apocalyptic world have anything nice? It’s always full of weirdos, biker gangs and cannibals… or at least that’s what every post-apocalyptic movie we’ve ever seen has taught us. Isn’t there some kind of future where the toxic waste hasn’t transformed half the population into blood-thirsty mutants? Isn’t there some version of humanity’s future that leads to rainbows, sunshine and everyone singing a spirited rendition of Kumbaya in a peaceful circle?Bah, who are we kidding? That kind of future would make for one snooze-fest of a movie! If the world is going to head to hell in a hand basket, you may as well look like a tough as nails kind of hero who eats deadly wasteland mutants for breakfast! That’s why if you plan on roleplaying as an apocalypse commando, you should be wearing this Wasteland Warrior costume.This men’s costume takes its inspiration from the many dystopian movie depictions of tough anti-hero types. It comes with a shirt that looks battle weathered, along with a belt. (You can never have enough belts when you’re wandering through the barren lands.) Of course, it also comes with glove that makes your arm look like a big old metal claw, because nothing says I survived nuclear fallout quite like a metal claw for a hand. Once you’ve gotten yourself all geared up in this rugged costume, you may just feel like doing battle with some bandits to assert your supremacy. After all, it’s survival of the fittest out there!
Hoist the Mainsail! Captaining your very own ship would be such a dream job? Why? Because you'd get to boss everybody around, from the first mate to the cabin boys. "Swab the decks!" you'd call. "Man the capstan! Weigh anchor! Belay the mizzenmast!" You wouldn't even have to know what any of those words meant. As long as they sound sufficiently nautical, you can just have fun yelling whatever you think of. Product DetailsLook brave and dashing in your exclusive Toddler Colonial Captain Costume! The soft, unisex jumpsuit fastens up the back and is designed to look like four distinct articles of clothing. The top features a blue jacket-style layer that reveals a red "waistcoat" insert beneath a ruffly white collar. The bottoms are a soft beige and tuck neatly into the black boot covers. Top it off with tricorn hat! Beyond the Horizon The Colonial era was an exciting time to be a sea captain! You'd load up your vessel with interesting passengers and all kinds of exotic goods one day, and then after a sometimes dangerous voyage, you'd dock at a port all the way across the ocean to deliver your goods and explore. You might even get to fight a pirate ship or two along the way! The only problem is, with a journey that long, fresh food tends to spoil quickly. No need to worry: That just means that you have to stock your galley with all of the prepackaged, long-lasting snack foods your parents don't like you to eat.
We can only imagine what the world would be like if steam power had turned out to be the last word in transportation and energy production. Which is good, because we really want to believe it would be just like all those steampunk novels we've read, in which a cunning heroine uses her engineering skills and mechanical-mindedness to create a clever new invention that saves the world from certain doom. Come to think of it, that's a pretty specific vision for the way things might have someday been. But at least it sounds stylish and full of adventure, even in the present day! Of course, real-life technology has been drifting away from smokestacks, paddle wheels, gears, and sprockets for some time, now. So to truly live the dream of an intrepid tinkerer, a girl is going to need a top-of-the-line time machine, and possibly an advanced degree in applied science. Or she could just do what most people do when they're nostalgic for the retro-future: put on a great-looking costume like this one!This kids costume combines a modified Victorian-era dress with some essential steampunk touches, like machined details and a pair of geartooth goggles. Layering the functional look of leather straps atop the frills of high fashion, this outfit makes for a unique look that's well-suited to any kind of brainstorm session or gizmo-seeking excursion. Once she's all suited up, we're sure she'll feel more than ready to put her skills to the test!
The Hundred Dollar Founding FatherBen Franklin was one pretty smart guy. He invented bifocals, edited a newspaper and got himself on the hundred dollar bill. Have you ever seen his journals? He liked to ask all the questions. How else do you wind up flying a kite with the intent of getting struck by lightning! Okay, we still think his whole "flying a kite in the middle of a thunderstorm" idea might not have been the best idea ever since that could have really turned out badly, but he's a genius, so who are we to argue? All of humanity is now in his debt. We wouldn't want to go back to living without electricity. How would we charge our phone?Of course, history is filled with amazing stories and Ben Franklin is part of many of those American history stories. That's why we like this costume so much. It's the perfect opportunity to learn about our rich history!Product DetailsThis costume makes your little history buff look just like the legendary figure that we know so well from our books and monuments. We can't guarantee that while wearing it, he'll be inventing the glass armonica like the real Benjamin Franklin, but he will look cooler than the other kids at the next American history pageant that your child is in, and we think that's just as important as the invention of the glass armonica. It's got the felt coat with attached vest and cuffs, all in drab tones that just say the 1700s. No costume from that era would be complete without a cravat, and this has one! The knicker pants go to the knees and fit easily with elastic.Ben Franklin Costume for BoysOkay, so he's going to learn all about history while wearing this classic costume, but whatever you do don't let him go out in the thunderstorm with that kite. We already have electricity. It's all good. He can just sit back and learn the glass armonica like all the other kids are doing these days (we assume).

The good news was that they were easy to spot in their white tunics with the big red crosses on them (and also the gleaming swords they carried); but the bad news was that they were some of the fiercest and best equipped fighters you could find. That's only bad news if you were on their bad side, though. If you were skilled and dedicated enough, you could always join their order and become a Templar, and then you'd be fighting alongside the very best!Okay, maybe becoming a Templar Knight was a little more complicated than swinging a sword and paying a monthly membership fee; but when you're donning this dashingly heroic costume, you'll appear up to the task! Armor up in this long white and red cross detailed tunic with its attached metallic mesh sleeves and the matching hood, which resemble sturdy chain mail. Add a pair of rugged looking boots and a fierce longsword to tote around as you carry out whatever quest you're charged with!
It’s well know that kids are friggen inquisitive. They can ask so many Why or What’s that questions per hour that they’ll either turn into geniuses or witness the decline of the focus of their interrogation from good-intentioned human fast into maddened and whimpering folk, curling for protection in the fetal position in a corner. Yet, still, they will loom over us and inquire, “Why are you doing that?”Rather than attempt to convince these clever inquisitors to halt their investigations, we find it is better to redirect their energies into more productive avenues.

Beauty of the NileWho was the real power in the ancient world? Julius Caeser or Marc Antony? Please. They were men. They had some successful campaigns, but so did another highly acclaimed ruler of their time. Plus, this particular ruler had a huge advantage: Personal style.

All Hail Apollo!Quick! Name your favorite Greek deity! That can be pretty tough, since there are so many Greek gods and goddesses to choose from. There's Zeus, the king of the gods, but honestly, we think he's a little overrated. After all, what does he do besides hurling lightning bolts (that he doesn't even make himself, mind you) at unsuspecting humans? There's Poseidon, the god of the sea, who we think is cooler than his brother Zeus, but he's confined to a pretty set area. If there's no sea, he's out of luck. Not very powerful then, is he? You could pick Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, and that's a pretty decent choice, but she didn't accomplish much besides having an impressively long list of boyfriends.Of all the Greek gods and goddesses, we say Apollo is the best of the bunch! He's the god of light, music, harmony, poetry, the sun, healing, plagues, prophecy, knowledge, order, beauty, archery and agriculture... That is a pretty extensive list! Pretty much, this god has something for everyone!Product DetailsFeel like a god among men at your next costume party in this Men's Sexy Apollo Costume. This ancient Greece-inspired outfit comes with a shirt, cape, skirt, wrist gauntlets and a headpiece.

There's also a gold polyester satin cape with a large ruby stone at the shoulder. To complete the look, the costume comes with soft golden wrist gauntlets and a gold leaf headpiece. (The sword and gladiator sandals are not included.)An Olympian in the HouseOnce you don this majestic Men's Sexy Apollo Costume, you'll be the personification of reason, harmony and moderation... And you'll look pretty darn handsome, too!

When America's men were off to fight "over there" the nation called on the women to put their hands to use. This gave women a taste of what it was like to have a major part of the workforce. It was a time of pride in the women's strength and smarts. It not only affected people's mindsets but it changed unpredictable things like the fashions. Instead of long, loose hair and complicated updo's woman started tying back their hair with a kerchief. It was only a short time after women were arrested if they wanted to wear trousers and now they were in factories wearing jumpsuits. So, when posters of Rosie the Riveter started popping up around the country it was a pretty revolutionary image, sponsored by the government, no less! It was the inspiration women needed to continue working hard in victory gardens, munitions factories, and salvage programming. The times might have been hard but everyone was coming together, putting aside class, to make sure their country stayed together in a time of violence and hardship. This costume includes a jumpsuit and a bandana. The jumpsuit has a collar with short sleeves and a zipper. The jumpsuit also has pockets, belt loops, and cuffed pants. The patch on the collar has the famous and inspiring tagline "We can do it". Pair this with a pair of sensible boots so you'll be ready for whatever the factories throw at you. Tie the included bandana around your head and you'll be an inspiration to the movement!
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!
Go Go GorgonThe Gorgons are myths of iconic proportions, though most only know of them via their matriarch, Medusa. But Medusa is merely one sister of three! She’s the youngest of the three serpent-haired and cursed aquatic sisters who could turn mortals to stone with just a gaze. While the others, Stheno and Euryale might have been immortal, it was only Medusa who etched a place in all our memories. It’s not a happy tale, Medusa’s.

You'll want to practice this with care to make sure it doesn't happen by accident because there aren't many ways to fix the cursed power of this exclusive Plus Size Medusa Costume.

If you have a daughter who just can't get enough American history, this Colonial Lady Costume is her chance to step into the role of a pioneer girl!A colonist's day started long before the sun came up.

She sounds like a real Rosie the Riveter type! So, when her teacher needs to rally the troops for the annual bake sale, it's no surprise she's asked your girl to lend a helping hand.

Have you ever wanted to be the President of the United States? It is a thought that many of us have had from time to time and one that, certainly, our parents have considered for us as they proclaim that we had the ability to become anything that we set our minds towards. The Presidency seems to always be that highest pinnacle, the crowning achievement. Then again, some can look at high public offices and wince a bit, pointing at a number that have left a number of us wanting and a few others aghast as we’re trying to figure how they managed any votes! And, even if you think you can handle the job, campaigning is such a pain in the rear.But, there are much easier ways to become the President without having to run around the whole country, talking yourself up and kissing every baby until you’ve managed to win enough votes—and we’re not talking about voter fraud, either! You can just transform yourself into a President that everyone already recognizes with this Ronald Reagan mask. Transmogrify with this full molded latex mask and get ready to yell “Reagan Smash!” as you topple your opponents as one of the most heavy hitting Presidents of them all. But, a warning: remember that Reagan masks usually have a different meaning when you go to banks, so we don’t recommend that.

Nowadays, the mighty beings are not as involved in the lives of humans (especially after the Trojan War, which was kind of a mess), but on Halloween they can't resist visiting the Earth. After all, Olympus has ambrosia and the Nine Muses, but the mortal world has spooky haunted houses and trick-or-treat candy. Be sure to pack a treat bag to store all of the delicious human delicacies you'll receive!
What is a girl’s best friend, asks a number of songs? Well, the quick answer tends to be the shimmer and glimmer of diamonds. They represent beauty, internal brilliance, and the sort of longevity and lasting power that falls right within the idea of eternity. But, ultimately, they are only gemstones. Diamonds might be pretty impressive, but they lack the real vivid color and life that hits what a gal really needs. How can they possibly compare when put toe-to-toe with the idea of the ultimate authority of divine mandated rule!?That’s the question posed to the most famously beautiful ruler of all time, Cleopatra. And what is the biggest problem with leading a massive country full of people just drooling over your magnanimous power? Well, looking amazing certainly isn’t the problem. If anything, such power and beauty only brings about the constant threat of betrayal and almost certain early death by assassination—often including truly unusual ways of bringing it about. We admit that dealing with murder plots isn’t a great aspect of the job description, but it at least makes for an eternal story for your subjects and enthusiasts hundreds of years later.So, it is now time to step up and claim your throne and make both Antony and Caesar roil with jealousy. Do so with this Nile Queen Cleopatra costume. This lovely black, polyester sheath dress is form fitting and has astounding contrast thanks to its aqua edging, gold and aqua armbands with long draping cloth that sings of the Nile, itself, and a sequined headband with lovely dangling beads and a bright faux gemstone in its center. The golden knit apron belt has a mystical scarab design in the same aqua tone that completes the balanced look. Complete your whole ensemble with a cobra staff or jeweled rings. (… Or an antidote phial, just in case some of your ‘allies’ bring in some serpents of their own!)
