The Long Way Round Some kids are born explorers. You can tell when they're mere babies. These are the kids that turn over onto their bellies weeks before they're supposed to. They move on to exhibiting an alarming obsession with climbing the stairs and escaping out of doors. Then, when they're in kindergarten they might have a "why" phase, trying to learn as much as they can about the world as fast as possible. If your child is a natural explorer then you've probably found out about his natural tendencies, it's pretty hard to miss!We're sure that Columbus showed off his curious side early on in life, testing the bounds of Italian village life as soon as he was toddling around. And when he was determined to find a new trade route to India, we bet no one was surprised when the explorer stopped at nothing until he had the ships he needed to see what lands lay beyond the Atlantic horizon!Details & DesignDesigned by our in-house creative team, this lush costume is perfect for school presentations, plays, as well as Halloween. The black tunic is belted at the waist. A faux-fur-trimmed coat is layered over top and has a wide cut that was fashionable in Columbus's time. The look is topped off with a hat that would look right at home at the helm of the Santa Maria. Picture PerfectDo you want your child to look like he's stepping out of the past? Finish off this costume with white knee-high socks, black shoes, and a telescope and he'll be ready to represent the man with the new voyage plan. A comfortably warm look, this is a unique choice for Halloween and an A-plus idea for your intrepid young explorer!

Wow did you see that beefcake? He was totally a gladiator! So, they might not be thrown in the Colosseum to fight any more, but those burly boys still need a little protection. The hunky gladiator needs his sword, a hot bod, and wrist guards for fighting off dragons (or whatever they fight off). Their mission is different every time.

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).
#WhatisaHastag?We know. It sounds pretty crazy, but girls in the colonial age didn't have the internet or social media. Kids these days are spoiled with instant information. You can look up anything at any moment and you can show friends your brand new pictures with just the simple touch of a touch-screen. Back then, the humble hashtag symbol looked a lot different and it was used in certain bookkeeping practices as a shorthand mark denoting a number! And they spent most of their time churning butter and doing chores around the farm.It was a tough, technology-free life, which is why we're quite thankful that we live in today's society!

Interesting InsectsWhen we think about steampunk-themed items, we usually think of mechanics. After all, the idea is to consider what our world would look like if we still ran things on steam instead of other forms of energy. We don’t always wonder what mechanical animals would look like. Here’s one imagining of an awesome insect! We’ve always been a little disappointed that dragonflies don’t actually look like miniature dragons. However, they’re still really cool! They have 4 wings instead of the typical 2, which is pretty neat, and they come in so many different colors. In the steampunk world, they’re made of metal so they’re a little less vibrant, but their wings are still beautiful!Product DetailsAdd the perfect gear-themed accessory to your steampunk outfit with this antique dragonfly gear pin! It has gears to emulate that antique style while keeping the shape of the fascinating bug, and attaches with a safety pin to minimize stabbing.

Its beautiful insect design merges the natural with the artificial, and is a great accessory for your next costume!
Just Another Manic Munch-dayEvery artist has a different specialty. Some are wonderful at framing reality in a totally different way. Others are great at bringing reality to life. But they all convey different emotions. Monet knows how to convey a completely peaceful French countryside. While Manet brings a little more energy to his peaceful French hoity-toity party scenes. Dali was always trying to make people feel a little unhinged whereas Leonardo da Vinci smoothed things over and made us think. Picasso was everywhere, making us feel blue one in one period while lightening the mood in another. But Munch's mood is more obvious than the rest.

Gentlemen, Lend Me Your SpearsThe mythology of Greeks and Romans wouldn't be much without the drama of the gods. They really went out of their way to show the danger of having too much time on their hands. Immortality will do that to you. The gods often occupied centuries of their lives with petty competitions. And it's not like they bowed out with grace either, Poseidon cursed Athens with drought when they preferred Athena's gift of an olive tree to the sea god's gift of a salty, useless stream.Speaking of Athena, she was pretty great at setting mortals against each other for petty reasons. Now that we think about it, all the Gods and Goddesses weren't above that. No wonder why training for war was so important to the Greeks and Romans. Luckily for them, they had outfits that were both fashionable and easy to fight in. Want to raise up an army this Halloween? Folks are sure to join your battalion in no time, no enemies needed!Product Details & DesignThis lovely Made-By-Us wrap dress will make you look right at home in the arena of a Colosseum.

LITTLE MISS CLEOFolks are always talking about how great it might be to be the king, but all a person gets to rule in that scenario is one little kingdom. Sure, that might seem like loads of power and fame, but how many kings really stand out over the centuries. Heck, half of them even just number their names. Who wants to be the eighth Henry, after all? No, if anyone wants to truly be remembered, they need to be much more than that!Who else but Cleopatra is better known and held more power?

You can invite Cleo to be your date and your rise to power will surely be great as you ascend the costume competition throne!
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. You can still see the skies they saw when you're out west, big, blue, and bright. It's no wonder that this journey west still captures the imaginations of young and old alike! Make playing pioneer even more fun with this colorful ensemble that's ready for a western adventure. Product DetailsIn bright blue gingham, your child will look right at home in wide open spaces.

West is the BestThere's no question that westward is the best way to travel until you get to the coast. The sky gets bigger, the mountains get more dramatic, and the adventures get more epic. And if you want to raise a little pioneer adventurer, you've got to start 'em young. Hitch up the wagon and get ready, this costume is sure to spur on all sorts of pioneer playtime!
The littlest command-in-chiefDoes your child dream about someday becoming president? Do they enjoy presiding over a Congress of stuffed animals or writing up their very own executive orders in crayon? Do they craft treaties with foreign governments (or maybe just their friends at school)? Do they constantly talk about balancing the federal budget, creating new federal agencies or appointing Supreme Court justices?We think it’s wonderful that your little politician wants to take on the biggest office in the world. But we’re sure you’re thinking about how difficult it will be for them to wait all the way until they’re 35 and legally allowed to run for the position. We suppose they could try to make a fake ID, but voters might get suspicious when they realize their candidate hasn’t lost all their baby teeth yet!Product detailsWe can’t give your kid a growth serum to age them quickly enough to run in next year’s primaries, but we can give them the next best thing: this Kid’s President Abe Lincoln Costume. After all, if they want to be president, they should go for it and become one of the best presidents our country has ever known! The costume comes with a 100 percent polyester wool-like coat with attached vest, which features buttons down the center. There’s also a satin bowtie with an elastic band to secure around their collar. Of course, of all the things Abraham Lincoln is famous for, we know the best thing is his famous top hat, so this costume comes with one of those, too! The impressively tall top hat features a black satin ribbon and is one size fits most. (Pants and shirt aren’t included, so make sure your kid adds a pair before swearing in!)Hail to the chief!Now your little politician can look and feel the part of a president with this exclusive costume. That’s a lot easier (and cheaper!) than securing a national ticket and actually running for office. We think that’s a win-win!
Hail, Caesar!Most Romans wore white togas. It showed everyone in Roman society that you were an upstanding citizen and could easily be compared to a suit, or maybe a sweater vest in today's standards. Of course, if you're planning on being an extraordinary Roman figure, then you're going to need something a little more eye-catching than the standard white toga. You need something with a fiery attitude and perhaps a bold color that transcends white! You need something that will inspire the masses to call out your name, like a modern-day Julius Caesar!

Balcony FashionsWhen you're making your entrance on your rosy, moonlit balcony, you've got to make sure you look like the romantic icon you are. That might mean billowy sleeves, layers of long skirts, and an extra layer of blush on your cheeks. But if you really want to look the part, you've got to have the right hat! The classic Juliet hat has become such a standard that the style has been copied for wedding veils all over the world.

Antioch to the AcropolisAs time-traveling goes, zapping yourself into the ancient world of Greece or Rome would be the most enticing. Unlike most communities that existed before the 1900s, they had running water and respected the power of bathing. They had pretty advanced medical care, buildings constructed to help its residents stay cool on intense summer days, and paved roads. As long as you didn't end up in a colosseum, life would be pretty comfortable for a whole range of classes back in Rome and Greece B.C.! However, if you did happen to land your time machine smack in the middle of a colosseum fight, this is the costume that you'd want to wear when you stepped out of the machine and into the ring. With a dignified draping cape and flattering leather accents, you'll be a favorite with the crowd in no time. You might even have to go on an international ancient world tour. That sounds like fun! You'd get to see all those famous ruins when they were newly built. Just goes to show that if you're going to go back, you'd better dress to impress!Costume DetailsThis stunning ancient ensemble is Made By Us which means it was created by our in-house designers. The costume features a jersey knit cape accented with a brass coin. A kilt trimmed in a geometric gold pattern is secured with a hook and loop fastener at the back. Faux leather gauntlets slip over your forearms for a tough, battle-ready look. B.C. BraveryAre you ready to bring a touch of the B.C. era to your next costumed event?

When you're getting behind the wheel of your car do you sometimes wish that you were rigging up your chariot? Are you bored with the modern day to day? We get it.

Centered with a show stopping mow hawk, you'll feel like Caesar's right-hand man!
No shrinking violetWhile some Disney heroines come from royal backgrounds, sing to birds, and live for a good ball, one of our favorite ladies from the world of Disney checks absolutely zero of those boxes. Her origin story stems from the underworld. She sold her soul to Hades to bring back her deceased boyfriend who then left her for another. That's a lot of flaws for a Disney heroine! But that's the thing, Megara makes mistakes. That's what makes her so likable. She looks at her world with an edge. And when a hero shows up looking to save her she lets him know that she's able to tie her own sandals, despite the hero's baby blues. And yeah, Megara gets elected to betray Hercules but in the end, she sacrifices herself to save him. That kind of courage is not the trait of a shrinking violet, despite the hue of her gorgeous dress. Product DetailsThis gown will make you feel like you're part of an epic adventure. The top is finely pleated with sheer, sparkly fabric. The neckline nods to Megara's Greek background with swirling medallions on each side. It has both an empire cut and a satin-textured sash in the middle, accenting your waist. The skirt is layered with sheer pleated sparkly fabric and a solid purple base. Top the whole look off with our Megara wig and you'll be ready to set off on your own epic adventure. You Tie Your Own SandalsWant to get in touch with your Disney heroine side with a sassy twist? Megara is a great choice to let your saucier side run free. So tighten your sandals and sharpen up your own comeback skills that you can throw out even when you're struggling to escape a monster's paw. Whether you're heading for Hades or a costume party, this costume will be a hit with Hercules fans, everywhere!
Good Morrow, Fair Maiden!Oh, to be a beautiful maiden in Shakespeare’s time. You might think their lives were dull if you just looked at historic paintings, but they were actually always having adventures! Portia in The Merchant of Venice dresses up like a man, pretends to be a lawyer, and saves the life of her love during a dramatic court case. Miranda in The Tempest was banished to a desert island and had to deal with a literal monster and a sketchy wizard. (We'll let you guess which one ended up being her dad!) Viola in Twelfth Night got shipwrecked, disguised herself as her brother... and still managed to land the guy, too!Obviously, these ladies are no shrinking violets!

The inside panel is a lighter purple, while the outer edges are dark, crushed velvet-like material. There’s a beautiful cream trim along the edges and encircling the sleeves in the middle, while there’s also lace trim at the front and along the sleeves.All The World's a Stage!Be sure that all attention is directed right to you in this regal Renaissance look. Whether you’re stepping on the stage at the Globe Theater or just going to a local costume party, you’re sure to be the star of the show!
BOSS LADY GOALSCleo was a boss lady, plain and simple. She built an empire in a world dominated by men and she did it with style, sass, and a little bit of controversy, just like any great ruler would. The female Egyptian pharaoh was fearless, attractive and intelligent. We don't know anyone who wears a royal headpiece, carries an ankh staff and can also speak a variety of languages. Cleo's rare combo of brains, beauty, and an overwhelming amount of boss lady vibes inspired our team of talented designers to create the one and only Cleopatra pantsuit. For decades, the pantsuit symbolizes dominance and possesses an ability to command the attention of an entire room. Is it any wonder that powerful women are still wearing pantsuits in the present? We think not!If you'd love to see Cleopatra dressed in a competent and classy pantsuit then you can make it happen by transforming into a contemporary version of the iconic queen. The Cleopatra pantsuit is everything needed to rule over Halloween like the true queen that you are. PRODUCT DETAILSThe women's Cleopatra costume is a Made by Us garment so it's high-quality and high-fashion. The crisp, white jumpsuit features a stylish high waist and a cascading gold-fabric sash that drapes down in the front and the back. The attached collar fastens around the neck while the coordinating wrist and upper arm bands add an extra dose of gilded splendor. Finally, the crown tops off the costume as the final piece that offsets the regal ensemble. BOW DOWN BEFORE YOUR QUEENIn addition to an ankh staff and a pair of killer gold heels, we recommend one key accessory: Caeser hanging off your arm, although a powerful woman, like yourself, never needs a man in order to feel complete.

Don't Make Eye ContactThis might sound weird, but have you ever been at a museum or in a decorated garden and felt as though the statues were... watching you? They seem lifeless and vacant, but you could have sworn you felt eyes on the back of your neck before you turned to look. Also, that statue was farther away before, wasn't it? Oh, dear. This might not be good. Product DetailsYou'll be an unsettling sight in this exclusive Scary Sullen Statue Mask for Adults! The unisex silvery mask conceals your entire head and most of your neck. It's molded to look like a blank-faced statue with carved hair. Eye holes allow you to (sort of) see where you're going. So Much Yikes Landscaping usually makes home property value go up, but we doubt that this mask would have the same effect. If you stood in someone's yard, people might assume that Medusa lives there, or that the statue uprising has finally begun. It was bound to happen someday.

Alrighty, folks, remember… We’re approaching that season where the veil between worlds thins and we can periodically see visitors from a few different places pop in to ask a few important questions. And, given what has happened a few times in the past, it is important to make sure we’re all on the same page. What do we say when some sort of odd gatekeeping extradimensional creature scowls at you and asks if you are a god? You know the answer, so there is no need to belabor that any further. But, just saying “Yes!” isn’t going to cut it anymore. They know that we know that, now, too! So, you have to know what kind of god? What powers? Over which domain do you rule?These are the big questions and the road to divinity is a very important one. Our suggestion is to go with a group of gods who have a lot of experience and still know how to have a good time with the mortals. Off to Mount Olympus, then, to learn about the proper protocol, hierarchy, and your rights and responsibilities as a Greek Goddess. Spooked? Ha, don’t worry. The Greek Gods are quite casual about everything, so long as you don’t muddle up their own machinations.With that handled, it is time to don your divine garb of the Roman Goddess costume. You’ll be right at home with Jupiter and Apollo in this glorious ombré gradient, floor-length, sleeveless dress that blends from cream to teal from top to bottom. As lovely as that is, alone, the accents are what truly make these cloths majestic. A gold braid edged V-neck and O-rings at each shoulder are matched by the gold leaf headpiece, all of which make for a clear marker of your divinity. So, the new question: Of what are you a goddess? … That one might take a bit longer, so we suggest you pick wine.

Fierce in FursThese days, when you show up in a fur coat, you're telling the world that you live a charmed life. Wearing a fur coat lets everyone know that you know your way around a high-end department store and you've probably spent some time on a yacht.That didn't used to be the case.

A Different Kind of Spin ClassWhen Jenny showed up for Colonial Spin Class, she was shocked. Where were the bikes? Why was everyone wearing full-length dresses instead of yoga pants? While Jenny didn't get the full-body workout she came for, she was blown away by how fun it was to sit at a spinning wheel and make yarn while catching up on pre-revolutionary gossip. What was Goody Tailor thinking wearing scarlet to Sunday services? The Johnsons purchased yet another ox and haven't even sold their wheat crop yet. Captain Emanuel Downing was planning on coming to the country dance to the excitement of every unmarried young lady in town!

Since it's Made By Us, it's been designed with longevity in mind, making it a great pick for theaters, schools, and history enthusiasts who want to dress up again and again. The lovely pink floor-length gown has buttons down the front of the bodice, a modest square neckline trimmed in ruffles, and a crisp off-white apron attached to the waistline. The three-quarter sleeves bring a little of the 1700s to life while the bonnet and shawl will make you ready to stroll into the town square, or spinning class, whatever suits you best!Cottage CoreJenny knows what to expect when she shows up to Colonial Spin Class now and while she wears a full-length dress in the morning while she's at the wheel, she's convinced her historical-enthusiast friends to join her later in the day for a little open-air yoga in the meadow. Talk about the best of both worlds!
History Come to LifeYour kiddo has done all the research, written the required 3-page report, and are making plans to become a living statue. Don't worry, it's just for history class. They're very dedicated though and want to make sure they look just like their chosen historical figure, Betsy Ross.Part of your child's research revealed just how a 19th-century woman dressed, which is very helpful.

We believe Betsy would be proud of this (much simpler) Victorian ensemble, but we know your kiddo will love the way they look with it on!
Tough with a Capital "T"Back in the day, women weren't allowed to do a while lot. You could barely even step outside your home unchaperoned! And even the idea of voting in elections? Forget about it. You were supposed to stay inside and pretend to be a simpleton without any thoughts or ideas of your own.
