If a man was a Viking, he was tough by definition. Violence was normal, he was most comfortable when forming a shield wall with his tribe. For Vikings, the world was a brutal place. The icy winds of the sea would have been whistling in the ears of the Norsemen since they were babes in the arms of their equally tough mothers. They were handling battle axes as soon as they could tottle around. With that harsh environment, it's no wonder they grew all the hair they could to protect them from the multitude of unforgiving elements, from the cold weather of the Norwegian seaside to the flying debris of the battlefield. You can't transform yourself into a Viking warrior if you ignore the epic long hair and beards of these northerners. The red locks of this wig are typical of people with Norse heritage. All you need now is one of those horned helmets and you're ready for battle. Now, shout it out with your fellow Norsemen, "Shield Wall!"
Deep Sea Knockout The national league of scientists have just stumbled upon a discovery that will knock your socks off. We all knew that the ocean was mostly unexplored and filled with secrets, but its biggest marvel isn't the Great White Shark, the blue whale, or even the Mariana Trench. It's this strikingly stunning sea god - what? Yes, apparently the Greek Gods weren't just interesting myths! This guy is the ruler of the oceans, but if you ask us, he should be the god of Awesome Good Looks too. Product DetailsRule your watery realm with panache while wearing your exclusive Sexy Poseidon Costume for Men! The one-shoulder tunic is made of shimmery, semi-sheer sea green taffeta and decorated with appliqued metallic gold hemline details. The matching sea green drape is attached to the tunic's shoulder with a gold-tone metal seashell. The comfortable shorts are covered in iridescent blue and green sequins. The golden belt fastens around your waist and the golden headband draws attention to your noble brow. Finish off your look with the fin-detailed wrist guards and the strappy shin guards made of iridescent blue-green faux leather. Greek Gods Got Game"Hey baby. Do you love water? That means you love seventy percent of me already!" Hmm. Maybe workshop that one a little bit. Even mighty Lords of the Waves still need to practice their pickup lines before trying them out on the Nereids who live in their oceans. Fortunately, this Poseidon has two secret weapons: His natural charisma and his fantastic outfit! Oh, and his trident, but that's a different kind of weapon and not as much help in this scenario.

Fashion on the MountGods and goddesses on Mount Olympus are always well dressed. Fine linens, laurel leaves dipped in gold, and so many wrap arm bands. It makes sense that deities would want to look fabulous. They're always making questionable choices so they have to look good to really get away with it. Look at Zeus.

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.

Customize this costume to create your perfect Viking look. Choose from helmets, shields, and even furry leg warmers to bring your character to life!

The foam backed wrist bands slide easily over the hands.The Sun God Needs a NapBeing a country's exalted leader is tiring business! You have to sit through plenty of state events so that the masses can get a glimpse of your adorable self. In addition, you're still doing the all-important business of cutting teeth, discovering that your feet are attached to your body, and determining which of your fingers is most delicious. It's no wonder that Pharaoh sometimes gets really cranky and passes out on his official handlers. Fortunately, Pharaoh snuggles are some of the best in the world. Lucky the vassal who gets to minister to him!
Perks of the Paleolithic Period This century has great things like squeezable apple juice pouches and kids' TV shows, but the Stone Age was pretty great too. Sure, there were sabertooth tigers roaming around, but there were also mastodons to ride (if you were very careful) and endless places to explore. No one made you eat Brussels sprouts or brush your teeth, since toothbrushes weren't even invented yet. Neither was handwashing. And it was encouraged to draw on the walls! It was a good time to be a toddler.Product DetailsEnjoy the feeling of being one of the first human beings on the planet when you wear this exclusive Prehistoric Cave Girl Toddler Costume! The step-in romper is made of minky fabric that's printed with a leopard spot pattern. It's one-shouldered neckline is made of brown velour, and its jagged edging matches the skirt's jagged hemline. A twisted lip cord can be tied around the romper's waist as desired. The faux suede leg warmers and arm gauntlets are easy to slip on. A fiber-filled felt bone is attached to a metal hair clip so that it can be pinned to a hairdo.Hunt and GatherDo you have what it takes to survive in the Paleolithic Period? Let's do a simple test. Are you so dedicated to tracking down the best food for their clan that you will hunt for hours in the evening twilight despite meeting all kinds of strange creatures? Can you find the most delicious chocolate bars and the most mouthwatering fruit chews? Ok, the cave people wouldn't be eating these things, but the concept is the same. Congratulations, you are a feisty cave girl!

Added bonus: behind JFK's big smile no one will see your smirk as all the partygoer's jaws drop.

#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! But it's always nice to look back at the tough work that the colonial settlers had to endure to give us a little more appreciation for how far we've come!Design & DetailsThis simple Girl's Prairie Dress Costume harkens back to the days of early midwest settlers in America. The costume starts with a one-piece dress that has a blouse-style top and an attached skirt around the waist. The skirt has a blue, floral pattern all over and the top has navy blue accents around the waist, sleeves, and collar. The dress fits with a zipper in back, making it easy to change into the historical look. The dress also has decorative buttons in the front. To complete the outfit, the dress also comes with an antique, gold-colored metal cameo that pins to the neck of the dress. When your child has it on, she'll be whisked bask in time!Shutting Down the Wi-FiTell your child to put that device away, shut down the Wi-Fi, and transport her back to a simpler time! With this Kid's Prairie Girl Costume, your little one will feel like a settler from the 1800s!
Ancient HeroesWhen we think of heroes, a number of names come rushing to the mind, but only a few of them have been spoken of in as many incarnations as the mighty half-god of Greek mythology, Hercules! Whether he’s an animated youngster eager to prove himself to his fuzzy mentor or a long-haired and suave friend-to-all on a legendary adventure, the guy has it all! Strength, a winning smile, notorious combat proficiencies, and… did we mention half-god? Hard to compete with that one!Sure, several of the ancient tales of Hercules don’t have the best of beginnings… or endings, honestly, but you have to give credit to a guy who can keep his chin up despite having a rather grumpy step-mother and uncle full of underworld angst. Between tackling ferocious monsters birthed from Echidna and winning the heart of a few Grecian lasses, Hercules has countless tales to be told.Product DetailsThis year, the stories can continue when you don your kiddo in this Child Hercules Costume. A comfortable white pullover tunic starts the look and you can armor your child up, next, with the foam body armor and attached cape. You won’t have to spend all day gearing your kid up, either, thanks to an easy fabric tie in the back of the armor. (Now, why didn’t the ancient Greeks think of that!?) Warrior-like armbands and leg guards close with Hook and Loop fastener and ensure that your child will be protected from all manner of monsters, but it might be a good idea to pick up a nice sword and lion-emblazoned shield just to make the beasties think twice about trying your demigod! The only question that remains is to figure out which of the kiddo’s parents is the god!
Back in My Day...These days, kids have everything! With these newfangled smartphones, everything is at their fingertips. They can find the answer by doing a quick search in a web browser. They can send a message to their friends halfway across the world in the blink of an eye. They can even play a game of chess against an opponent who's living in another country.Back in the olden days, they didn't have any of that! Kids had to get up at the crack of dawn to collect the chicken eggs. They had to churn butter and gather firewood! They had to herd up animals and they had to make candles by hand! They had to cook lunch by hand with no microwave... yeah, we're glad that we don't still live in the colonial times, but it can always be fun to take a walk down our past by dressing up like our ancestors!Product DetailsThis Colonial Village Girl Costume turns your child into a pilgrim from the Colonial Period! It comes with a pullover dress that has a cinched waist and a blue floral pattern. It has a ruffled bust and white bows on the sleeves to help bring the look together. The included fits over the shoulders and ties in the front. Finally, the hat features an elastic band to help keep it secured on your child's head. Put it all together and you have an authentic look, perfect for school plays and historical reenactments.A Taste of the PastWhile you don't necessarily need to make your girl give up modern day technology, you can help her learn how tough it was for the first settlers of the new world! You just need this Girl's Colonial Village Girl Costume and some great fun facts from the past.
The Marvelous Montague Let's face it: The Capulets are just jealous of your swagger. That's the only reason for them to be continuing this silly feud instead of inviting you to their big masquerade party.

Your crowning touch is the Tudor-style cap bedecked with a bright red feather. Wherefore Art Thou? We can only imagine that the Bard himself would thoroughly approve of a costume like this one. It's perfect both for Halloween fun and for taking the stage as one of Shakespeare's best-loved heroes. Maybe your director will even let you use real swords for your duel with Tybalt, but if not, don't worry. There's still lots more fun to be had. Daggers and poison tend to make stories pretty exciting.
He moves for no manMedieval valor requires folks that have tough character. As you probably know, the Medieval era wasn't a time of peace and prosperity. fights could break out at any time. There were wars between students and townspeople about the quality of the drinks at local pubs. In Italy, an army of over three-thousand men was sent to retrieve a wooden bucket that their enemies had stolen from their wall. We get it, the Middle Ages were a time of famine, fleas, and fear.

Prehistoric FashionistaWho says living in a cave means you don't know anything about style?! In our experience, cave-dwelling fashionistas are actually a little ahead of the curve, since they can get their hands on pretty exotic furs and do some snazzy things with bones and claws and all that good stuff. Your little one will have a blast from the past (the extreme past) dressing up in this Cave Girl Cutie Costume for her prehistoric Halloween shenanigans!Being a Stone Age girl is far from easy, especially during woolly mammoth migration season, or when it's time to trim your pet saber tooth tiger's claws. And it's not as if you can just hit a drive-thru whenever you're craving a breakfast burrito. You totally have to sneak into a dinosaur nest and snag some eggs first, and that's assuming you also have all the other ingredients and a fire to cook them on. To us, that alone almost makes being a cave girl sound terrible, but then we see chic Neolithic outfits like this woolly dress, and we're back on board!Product DetailsThis cute costume comes with everything she needs to transform into a really cool cave kid. The leopard print dress features jagged hemlines to look she made it with her bare hands, and it looks awesome with the faux fur vest and matching boot tops. The bony hair bow tops off this wild, very vintage style, and will show everyone how cave kids know a thing or two about looking cool!Cave Girl CostumeBefore there was social media, texting, and long before there was Facetime, there was the stone age. Even though they couldn't instantly connect with friends and know what's happening around the world at any given moment, we think that the cave people knew a few things about fashion that we can still use to this day. This Cave Girl costume proves just that!

It really doesn’t matter where you look for ancient tales about some of the most famous of mythical creatures. Ultimately, the core of the tale rings pretty accurate no matter where you’re finding it. Such is the case of the mysterious Medusa. In some tales, she was a woman of such incredible beauty that she was cursed by jealous gods, turned into a monster that no mortal could handle looking upon, ultimately even meeting her own end upon seeing her horrific reflection. In others, she was a sorceress granted great magic by demons who ultimately subverted her form over several years. But, one great fear remains true of the mighty gorgon… her gorgeous locks of hair became a nest of hissing vipers!But, who is to say that a nest of serpent hair can’t still be pretty! Prove those jealous gods and cruel demons wrong by showing off this exotic and lovely Wicked Medusa wig. This synthetic weave of vibrant green dreadlocks have just enough of the entwined serpent look to give people a second thought about getting too close but are exotic and beautiful enough that they’ll have to take a second look! Join this with the right sequined green dress or a nice set of serpent contact lenses to turn monster into mystery!

Going ClubbingAgma is one of the most popular cavewomen in the cliffs. She knows how to make the best mammoth stew. She tells the best hunting stories. Somehow she made the dangerous incident with a cave hyena that happened last month sound pretty funny and was asked to retell it around the fire three nights in a row. So when it came to caveman prom, Agma had a lot of invites. Thog brought her a bouquet of cabbage flowers. Zeb brought her a rabbit skin purse. And Borg gave her a brand new strand of polished rocks.Details & DesignThis wide bone hair clip is Made by Us. The metal clip is secure with small teeth to keep it in place. The long bone will stand out from your hairdo while also being lightweight to keep you comfortable and flashy.Rock and RollThere's a reason Agma is popular. She knew she'd have more fun if she went with the rest of her cavewoman friends. That way, all three cave fellas could have a dance! All Agma really needed to decide on was if she wanted to wear her granite headband or her brand new mammoth bone clip. Not a hard choice at all, if you ask us!
So, you want to get into politics, eh? Think you can swing it? There are a lot of rules once you're in this elite group. Meetings begin at down and could go till dusk. You won't be paid and you'll have to be willing to spend all day at the temple of Apollo. Wait, what? We're talking old-school Roman senators, you mean you want to be a modern senator? We have no idea how that works but we do know plenty about togas.Senators back in the B.C.'s knew how to dress to impress. Forget about pin-stripes, lapel pins, and cheesy seasonal ties. These senators draped themselves in the finest wool and if they were ultra well-off they'd even add a strip of red or purple cloth to their drapery. You have to wonder if they knew they were setting a standard for college parties thousands of years in their future. How many of those long days of filibustering and vetoing ended in a healthy, "chug, chug, chug" chant? It would be weirdly comforting if we knew that senators had to participate in rush-week to get a seat in the senate.Well, whether you want to go back in time to learn about democracy from the ground up or are going to an annual toga party, you're sure to look like a well-to-do senator in this outfit. Not only does this costume have an eye-catching red cloth draped over the ribbed linen-like material but the cloth's hems are also lined in gold. The whole ensemble is belted with gold and topped off with golden laurels, giving you the authority to discuss converting the main city aquifer into a waterslide.
It Was the Best of Times, It Was the Worst of Times...Civil war, or any kind of war, is never great. There's always bloodshed, heartbreak, sickness, shortages, and wounds - both physical and mental - that take time to heal. On the other hand, just like throughout the rest of human history, there are always good things to be found right alongside the bad. Physicians start to realize that handwashing before surgery is a good idea. The bridge to women's suffrage begins to be built. The steam engine blazes across the prairie, reuniting families and cutting down on weeks of travel in covered wagons. And best of all, women's fashions were absolutely stunning! Product DetailsYou'll fit right in during the War between the States thanks to this exclusive Plus Size Women's Civil War Dress Costume! The floor-length dress is made of light and comfortable polyester calico fabric and is printed all over with a delicate floral pattern. We did you a solid and put a zipper up the back instead of a million tiny buttons (it might be less historically accurate, but you'll thank us for the fact that you can fasten your dress yourself instead of having to get someone to do it for you.) Pink satin ribbon decorates the cuffs, hemline, and bodice, and a matching ribbon is sewn to the waist as a sash. The plastic cameo and decorative buttons give the dress some extra flair. An included petticoat goes under the whole thing to pouf out your skirts beautifully - no hoopskirt required! American BelleWhether you wear this costume for a pageant, reenactment or party, you'll look like America's sweetheart. Enjoy the benefits of throwback fashion without having to wear a corset to get the look!

Is your child finally ready to join the raiding party? Is he ready to charge into battle, like the brave little Viking warrior that he is? Are you ready to put a little battle axe in his hands and send him into battle? Well, cool your jets there! Before you can send your little marauder off into the world of combat, you might want to equip him with the right look. He needs some armor, specifically a helmet and no ordinary helmet will do! Yes, he needs a majestic looking helm with horns and plenty of fur. That ought to scare his enemies on the battlefield. He needs this horned Viking helmet!This kids Viking helmet might not be entirely historically accurate, since our history experts tell us that Vikings didn’t wear horns on their heads. They also tell us that their helmets were made out of heavy metals. Ours is made out of foam, which is much easier to lug around than metal and the stuffed horns are made out of soft material, so no animals were harmed in the making of this helmet. So really, this helmet is much better than the actual Viking helmets from the days of old!

WHO MIGHT YOU BE?The best part of being in a medieval world is that you could be anyone. Of course, that's also part of what makes the whole thing just a little scary. That cheerful lad down the street running a market cart and trying his best to be proud about day-old muffins? He's actually an assassin waiting to deliver the poisoned bread to a noblewoman! That dirty-faced tavern lass sweeping dry mud from the floor for the sixth time today? A princess hiding from her father's guard!

Whofore Art ThouHave you ever wondered who you would be in a Shakespeare play? It's not the type of subject that you can usually take a personality test about.

Redesigning a DynastyIf you could redesign all the wonders of ancient Egypt would you change anything about their design? We realize that it's a bit blasphemous to critique these ancient wonders but that's just because we're looking at history through rose-colored sunglasses. The Sphinx is cool and everything but the thing is, as a half-cat the Sphinx has probably been pretty bored through the centuries. A pharaoh like you could have had his people sculpt a ball of string between the paws of the Sphinx to keep the calm creature calm through the ages. Maybe the Sphinx would have even thrown a few blessings down on your reign. Either way, it would be pretty awesome to head back to ancient times to see the pyramids in all their glistening marble sided glory and float through the green glories of the Nile. But if you're planning on a time travel coup, you're going to need the right costume!Product Details & DesignThis Made-By-Us look is sure to make you look right at home in the palaces of ancient Egypt!

Does not come with Big StickTeddy Roosevelt is the least presidential o all the presidents. In our opinion, that's one of his best qualities. He wasn't stuck up, in fact, he was always getting into all sorts of scrapes even after he was voted into office. He went blind in one eye after a boxing incident in the White House. Did he stop fighting in the White House after that happened? Not really, he just switched to jiu-jitsu. Teddy didn't hesitate to become the first president to travel the continental US, braving the treacherous wilderness of the wild west despite the worries of the politicians back in Washington. Actually, he took it further, while he was on the west coast on a speaking tour he snuck off with John Muir to go camping and explore the natural wonders of the Rockies and Yellowstone. This rebellious backpacking trip inspired him to make these national wonders into national parks. Also, we're pretty sure that's where he got that big stick that he mentioned in that famous quote of his. Product Details & DesignWhen we designed this Made-By-Us costume we wanted to represent the other side of US presidential history. This costume is both dignified as well as exploration ready. The suit has a khaki color and an early nineteen-hundreds cut. The brass buttons, jaunty brimmed hat, and collar embroidery add to the presidential flair while the holsters on the belt make you look rough and ready.Speaking Softly OptionalWhether you're choosing a look for Presidents Day or you want a historic look for Halloween, you'll love this dashing costume. You might find yourself longing to explore the wilderness and take on both politicians and moose with your bare hands but that's just a part of transforming into one of the wildest presidents of the US. Do like Teddy would do and take it in stride!
Where Art Thou Rhyme SchemeShakespeare oh Shakespeare! Wherefore art thine rhyme scheme, Will? Tis but thy fancy wording that is our enemy. Thou art thyself, a wicked good screenwriter. What is a rhyme? It is nor pun nor plot twist, nor meet cute or will they won't they, nor any other classic movie ploy. What is with your tricky tongue? That which we call a rose by any other name would just complicate things. So Shakespeare, would he not use Shakespeare speak. Retain that dear perfection which he owes without the funny stuff. Shakespeare, doff the fancy words you wrote for Queen Elizabeth's court. And for thy scripts which are no part of thee, come back to life and start your own dramatic podcast for us.

The doublet is detailed with embroidery down the front and along the hem of the peplum. The velvet-textured top has the plush shoulder ridges that were all the rage back in the day and is topped off with a dignified wide collar and cuffs. And of course, our man Will can't wear just any pants. Take it to the
Mystery at Grimshaw HallThe life of a noble maiden is usually pretty quiet. Days were spent sewing and wandering through the gardens and evenings were spent in the hall, listening to the harpsichord. That's what Lizbeth was expecting when she came to live in Grimshaw Hall. But the first night, she heard someone crying from the floor above her chamber. When she asked, her lady's maid insisted that she couldn't hear anything. A week later, she heard the sound again. This time she went to investigate. Bringing along her lady's maid, she crept along the dark halls of the manor. They snuck along the staircase, her lady's maid pulling at her skirts, asking to turn back before every corner. When they got to a locked door at the end of the... what? Oh, we're supposed to be describing this costume rather than writing a historic novel? Oh, sorry, we just got swept up in the romance of this historical costume!Design & DetailsThis gorgeous historical gown was designed by our in-house creative team.

In Ancient Egypt, royalty and rulership was a mandate of divinity. The pharaohs were reincarnated forms of the great sun god and ready to bring their people to an epic future of wealth untold under the guardianship of their priests who spoke with the great gods. Those who were disturbed or ruled unwisely might rise as mummies, forever tormented to wander the sands until the rightful pharaoh might come and return them to their slumber.But, the best thing about the pharaohs were that we had no specific limitations on who might be named! Those with the divine right would be raised, no matter who they were. The great queen Nefertiti ruled as the great female Pharaoh long before anyone contemplated if a woman could some day be president or chancellor! And, it wasn’t limited to just that. The great King Tutankhamen, the boy king, became one of the most famously known names in even our modern era. Even children could possess the wisdom to rule… at least for a while.And, reincarnation is still a thing, even these many years later. Channel the lost soul of King Tut by gifting your kiddo with the luxury of rule with this Child Pharaoh costume. The navy blue tunic has a printed ankh necklace and is edged in gold to both ensure a regal look while providing protection against dangerous forces. The brown interlock gathered loincloth is sewn to a sash and fastened with Hook and Loop fastener to stay in place, also featuring gold knit and mysterious Egyptian printed designs. The iconic headdress of the Pharaoh fastens with Hook and Loop fastener and falls over the shoulders like a regal crown. And, just in case you’re worried that your tyke might let the power get out of hand, the Pharaoh costume comes in multiple sizes so you can all rule as a dynastic family!
As far as Halloween costume accessories go, hats can make or break your costume. Wearing a hat as part of your costume can be a risky choice if you’re going out. Over time, some hats can become uncomfortable or, if they don’t fit tight, can get knocked off your head easily. You don’t want to spend all night keeping track of your hat. If you’re thinking about some head wear for your costume make sure it’s something that adds significantly to the costume. Obviously, an Abraham Lincoln costume becomes more recognizable with a top hat, or a Charlie Chaplin look will be more complete with a bowler hat. In fact, a bowler hat would look great with a lot of costumes and, if you’re looking for one that will fit comfortably and stay on your head all night, all you need is this black mini bowler hat. This hat features a soft velvet exterior and fits perfectly on your head with the attached elastic string. Add a touch of class to your Halloween costume this year with this black mini bowler.
