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!
Comeback QueenHere's the difference between princesses and queens. Princesses are given their title, queens have to fight for theirs. And as fighting for the throne goes, Cleopatra's story stands out loud and proud. In the beginning, she was pushed from the throne. Banned from her own land. Did she let that stop her? No! When Caeser was staying in an Egyptian palace, Cleopatra had her servants roll her into a carpet. Then they casually carried her into the palace (we like to imagine them whistling like they do in cartoons). As soon as they unfurled their lovely monarch in front of Caeser he fell head over heels and she made a bid for the throne. It wasn't long before she was ruling again. If that's not a power play, we don't know what is!Details & DesignWe're sure the Egyptian queen would stamp her seal of approval on this Made by Us Cleopatra costume! Our designers created this piece in a nod to the Egyptian style that was popular for the country's hot climate. The unique look features a white bodysuit under a sheer flowing gown with subtle gold stripes. The gown is accented with a stunning gold collar and belt, beaded for ultimate shimmer power. With sheer layers, sparkling gold, and a flattering cut, this costume will be a legendary ensemble at any costumed event.Ultimate Look, No De-NileCleopatra really knew how to make an entrance. She was never afraid to shine! When you're dressing as this legendary queen, take a leaf out of her book. Finish off this look with golden accessories like bangles, sandals, and makeup. Crown yourself with your favorite Cleopatra wig from our collection. When you're looking this royal, you don't even have to roll yourself in a carpet to make a stunning entrance!

A Mummy MonarchAncient Egypt had plenty of gods to look up to. There was Renpet, the goddess of time. Priests revered Heka, a god of magic and medicine. Then, of course, there were upwards of a dozen death deities. Death was super complicated in Ancient Egypt. There were multiple gods and goddesses that were there simply to escort the dead to the lord of the underworld. Then there were the deities that were in charge of the different aspects of mummification. Anubis was the head honcho of this department. He was in charge of weighing a souls heart, which was the main deciding factor that let souls pass enter the realm of the dead. We wouldn't let our dogs near so many raw hearts but maybe god dogs have more self-restraint than your everyday Fido. Product Details & DesignThis Anubis costume is Made-By-Us, meaning our company designers researched this god's look to put together a unique take on Anubis's aesthetic. The tight black shirt is has attached golden cuffs,a layered belt, and making anyone wearing this costume look like they could have been painted on an ancient tomb. With uniquely shaped pants and lightweight gauze draped throughout the costume, you'll feel comfortable moving throughout a costumed event. The ensemble is topped off with a mask and showstopping jackal headpiece with striking gold and black accents. Curse of the CanineWhen it comes to raiding tombs, there's no way we'd want to cross Anubis! This hound will not hesitate to protect the mummies in its care just like a Doberman Pincher might protect its master. Although instead of a bite, this dog will serve up a curse. No wonder ancient Egyptian priests showed this god so much respect. This Halloween, become the loyal guardian of the dead with this showstopping Anubis costume!
Storytime: We have a friend who’s so obsessed with pop culture and movies (surprised?) who has has made a pastime of, when they put in a coffee or take-out order, they always tell them that it’s for Sparta.

We like to follow the theory that the Victorian Industrial Revolution somehow split off into two different worlds. There's the world that turned into what we live in and there is one that turns into the world of steampunk. We dream of going there because who wouldn't want to become an adventurer in that gear freak world of a science fiction old fashion? Every once in a while we decide to dress up like we were there (usually on Wednesdays). Now we'd like to expand the tradition. Add an elegant touch to your Halloween costume with this Women's Cameo Steampunk Set complete with a choker adorned with white lace and earrings. This will be sure to identify you immediately as true steampunk aristocracy. If you feel like going back in time instead of forward, this set would also be great for a traditional costume of the time period that inspires the mystical world of whimsy.
Beyond the HorizonCan you imagine all the sights the pioneers saw on their way out west? If they traveled from the East Coast to California, they would have seen things that they couldn't have even imagined. First, there were the great plains. Pioneers wrote that looking out over the prairies was like looking out over the ocean. There was grass as far as the eye could see, the wind blowing through it, causing it to move like waves. Then, the pioneers crossed the Missouri River and began to see signs of the Badlands, strange hills that were just a hint of the wild, rocky Utah landscape they would cross in the weeks to come. The life of a pioneer wasn't easy. They faced hunger, thirst, an endless landscape that was all too easy to get lost in, and dangerous wild animals. But we still have to wonder what it was like to see a whole new world unfold right beyond the horizon, day after day!Design & DetailsThis Made By Us pioneer costume is perfect for those kids who are always daydreaming about heading west. The costume features a collarless gingham shirt and a brown vest that buttons up the front. Matching breeches have an easy-on elastic waistband at the back, and decorative buttons on the front. Topped off with a wide brim hat, this costume is ready for whatever might be next on your child's pioneering adventure!Happy TrailsIf you want the adventure without the dysentery, playing dress-up is a great way to go! This high-quality costume can withstand plenty of pretend Oregon Trail adventures and still be the perfect look for school plays and Halloween. The more use your child gets out of it, the more authentic it'll look. Be prepared to talk covered wagons and provisions because it looks like your kiddo has plenty more happy trails ahead!
HONESTLY, THAT'S A COOL COSTUMEAbe Lincoln, what a guy! He was a successful leader and popular president because he could relate and appeal to the "common folk" so when this Abraham Lincoln men's costume came into the office, we felt compelled to transform into the 16th President of the United States. Known for being an incredibly honest man, the premise of the movie Liar Liar automatically popped into our heads. What if we put on this costume and then suddenly had no self-control and blurted out every thought we had? (Now, that could land us in some hot water.) Also, Abe Lincoln was 6 ft. 4 in. tall which is intimidatingly tall (maybe he could have played some professional basketball), so that factor was a little daunting too.If you're anything like us and have these same concerns, we can squash those worries right now. We finally worked up the nerve to try on the Abe Lincoln costume and we didn't feel the need to disclose every thought, thank goodness. Also, the costume looked great on us despite our short stature! PRODUCT DETAILSThe historical costume comes with a long black button down coat with a large collar. The black vest is worn underneath the jacket and also features matching black buttons for a refined look. The included black tie attaches around the neck via a simple Hook and Loop fastener tab. You'll also receive a collapsible top hat to complete the presidential look. Please note, this costume doesn't come with the beard, white collared shirt, or pants. TRUTH BE TOLDTruth be told, this a great historical costume that can be used for a play performance. Wear it to celebrate President's Day! Complete the look by picking up a beard accessory and a pair of black dress shoes. Memorizing the Gettysburg Address wouldn't hurt either!
Legendary Pest ControlGot monsters in your neighborhood and don't know what to do? Fear no more, Hercules has it covered! This hero takes down Nemean lions in a matter of minutes. Is a nine-headed Hydra mucking up your city's sewer system? Hercules knows what to do. From multi-headed hounds to ferocious riddle-loving felines, this home-town hero has got you covered! What's that? Modern monsters on your hands? We're sure our hero can smooth out your community. All for the low, low price of your admiration and adoration. And really, who could turn this charmer down? He'll head to Hades and back just for a great review. So next time there are fire-belching wolves roaming your streets or dog-sized scorpions scaling your walls, give this hero a call and they'll have nowhere to run. Thanks, Hercules!Product DetailsWe're happy to welcome Hercules into our modern era with this officially licensed Disney costume. Straight out of the hit cartoon, this costume is simple to throw on so that you'll be ready to take down any cruel creatures that come your way! The tunic is belted with a lighting motif in the middle to show off this demi-god's origins. It has a blue cape attached to the back and is finished off with faux leather gauntlets to keep you safe while fighting off the beasties. Hunk-cules HappeningsDisney's version of the epic hero Hercules is a lot more admirable than the one written about in Greek mythology. Sure, he might not always listen to his animal companions when it comes to trusting that "damsel in distress". But wouldn't his Olympian dictated trials have been a little dry if it weren't for Meg's antics? And in the end, Hercules made it out on top. So this Halloween, bring Hercules back to take care of any monsters that might crop up in your neighborhood. Let's just hope he can tell the difference between a store-bought ghoul and one that's sent from the gods!
R-E-S-P-E-C-T, find out what it means to Viking deities. Mostly, respect meant keeping your head high, keeping the whining to a minimum and fighting til the end. If Viking warriors could do that than they would be carried to Valhalla by a type of Norse goddess called a Valkyrie. Sweet deal, eh?The goddesses of the Vikings had it together, at least compared to the gods. They never kidnapped people, plotted violent events, or schemed to make the other gods feud with each other. The Valkyries focused on getting their important jobs done and hit up the mead hall in after hours. Hmm, sounds similar to human women in the modern era. And when Valhalla got too loud and violent? Who'd have thought a heavenly mead hall full of Viking warriors would be loud and violent? The Valkyries would seek some peace and quiet on earth, swooping into battles on their flying horses surrounded by ravens that they could communicate with. That doesn't sound like a bad gig.It's easy to channel your inner fierce goddess for your next costumed event. Lucky for you, Odin has blessed us mere mortals with a perfectly balanced costume that's at once cozy and sexy. In velvet and faux fur, you'll be ready to patrol the wind-blown battlefields of Norway while the off the shoulder dress with thigh high skirt slit makes you ready to party in Valhalla. Talk about versatility! The faux leather armor will let those warriors know you're no one to be messed with, even Thor has to lay some respect down for this Valkyrie.
Fun Sherlock Holmes fact: The phrase "Elementary, my dear Watson" does not appear anywhere in the writings of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Holmes's creator. It is a line from the 1929 movie The Return of Sherlock Holmes, spoken by actor Clive Brook in the title role. According to anecdotes the phrase MAY have also been used earlier, by actor/playwright William Gillette in an 1899 stage production of Sherlock Holmes, but there is no written evidence of that. Interesting, no?? These are the types of things you can tell people all Halloween long... and you can also keep an eye on that Dr. Moriarty and make sure he's not doing anything weird at the party like stealing lightbulbs or thumb tacks, that sort of thing.
The Fairest MaidenThere was a lot left to be desired living back in the Middle Ages. Most people's homes were just one big room with dirt floors and straw-stuffed mattresses for beds. The dinner menu didn't include much besides bread, stew and porridge. There was always the threat of an invasion from an enemy country or another 100-year war. If you wanted to visit anyone farther than 10 miles away, it took two months to finally get there. You might be accused of being a witch if you baked a cake that was too delicious. And, worst of all, there was no indoor plumbing.But all the inconviences of Medieval life were worth it for the amazing balls! If you think today's parties get wild, you haven't seen anything yet. Medieval balls had fire jugglers and choir groups and trained bears and indoor sporting events, plus about 100 pounds of food. The best part, of course, was having the chance to dress up in a truly beautiful gown!Product DetailsYou will be the fairest maiden in the land in this exclusive Plus Size Women's Crimson Maiden Costume. The beautiful red dress is made out of the finest 100 percent polyester, styled to look like crushed velvet and brocade fabrics and sewn by a dozen royal seamstresses. The one-piece dress is styled to look like multiple layers, including a shift, underskirt and overdress. The cream brocade front inset panel looks like an underskirt peeking up at the top of the dress, and the dark red overdress is trimmed with gold lace and braid. There are also long sleeves trimmed with gold lace, with cream fabric peeking out of the ends to resemble more underskirt.Ye Grand Olde TimeYou're guaranteed to have a grand old time at your next Medieval ball (or just a good old costume party) with this crimson maiden costume!
It seems like most people, when asked to imagine a knight in their mind, picture a strapping man in shining armor atop a horse.

No need to worry about the chainmail...it's actually a comfortable fabric even though it looks pretty intense. So, let your daughter or granddaughter know that she too can be a fearless warrior of old this Halloween with our warrior knight costume.
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.

The Ancient Egyptians knew that royalty was a grand mandate of divinity. Their pharaohs were reincarnated forms of the great sun god, Ra. Because, what is better than being King than being a God-King!? Challenged to bring their people to untold prosperity while competing with somewhere between 6 and 40,419 gods of death, those rulers had no end to their stress! And, worse, 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. So, maybe being king isn’t always the easiest of paths in life!But, still, 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. Man, woman, or even kiddos were all eligible if they possessed the wisdom to rule… at least for a while. The great King Tutankhamen, the boy king, became one of the most famously known names in even our modern era.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 King Tut costume. Luxurious black and gold polyester interlock knit fabric make up this knee-length tunic whose belt and collar are trimmed with gold and turquoise colors amidst a metallic golden braid, all featuring Egyptian-themed patterns. Matching velvet armbands shine like rare jewelry thanks to faux gems and fasten easily with the mythical power of Hook and Loop fastener. The headpiece is a black velvet fabric with golden stripes and a soft sculpted cobra with gleaming emerald eyes. Let your tyke reign forever as the God-King Tutankhamen and, even if the rule doesn’t last forever, you know that a mummy could be a great option next year!

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.
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. The curtsy, the slow and stately shuffle of the pavane dance, the haute of the galliard...DESIGN & DETAILSFortunately, with all the fun of old world acts, you still won't have to worry too much about being in style. 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.

This noble Maiden Costume assures that your tyke will not only be loving the look the whole time but will be making a lasting memory of the time she was crowned 'Your Majesty!'
You got to hand it to Hermes, this guy was made of quick stuff! He had wings on his helmet, he had wings on his shoes, he even had wings on his staff! This guy was made for speed. Because of his ability to fly fast and far, the gods of Olympus hired him on as living instant messenger between the gods and mortals. This fast fellow used all that responsibility he got to cause a lot of mischief on Olympus. Lucky for him he was quick on his feet and rarely got into a bind he couldn't get out of. Who wouldn't want the ability to cause mischief and escape the consequences? Although, some of us probably have younger siblings that have somehow acquired that ability. If you want to be a Greek God this Halloween or for a future toga party, this winged makes for an instantly recognizable character. You'll have so much fun, the night will fly by!
Looking for more of a historical style this Halloween? More specifically, are you hoping to properly portray the women of the colonial period?

The lovely, yet still quite simple, lace trim encircling the cap adds a hint of fashion without being too flashy about it.

True Old School CoolHistory is cool. We know, we know. Some people think it's actually not cool to think that, but just look at all of the awesome stuff Ben Franklin did during his lifetime! Let's see... first, there are the countless inventions that he created, like the Franklin stove that helped keep people warm during winter. Then, there are bifocals, which are largely unchanged from his design to this today. If that wasn't enough, the dude even created his own instrument called the glass armonica! Oh, and did we mention that he helped write the America Declaration of Independence? Yeah, Ben Franklin was like the Elon Musk of his time... except Ben started a brand new country, held the title as the first Postmaster General of the United States, and earned his place on the hundred dollar bill!If that's not cool, we don't know what is. That's also why we happen to think that this Boy's Colonial Benjamin Franklin Costume is one of the coolest costumes a kid can wear!Design & DetailsThis historical costume is based on one of the greatest figures in American history! Our costume designers took care to create a look that was befitting of the Founding Father, so they studied classic portraits of Ben. This costume is what they came up with! It starts with a brown jacket that has decorative buttons along the front to give it a colonial style. The jacket has an attached vest, making it easier than ever for your child to get dressed up! The matching pants are also brown and have an elastic waistband for fitting. Finally, the costume also comes with a cravat to complete the look. To get the look seen in the image, be sure to check out our wig, socks, shoe buckles and glasses to finish off the look (all of which are sold separately).Historic HeroIf your child thinks history is cool, then Ben is his man! This Made by Us costume is a great way for any kid to dress as their hero, Benjamin Franklin!
Hey there, warrior! Have you been trying to get yourself inside the Colosseum for a spot of combat? Well, then you'd better not charge into there without a weapon! After all, they're going to throw every kind of mean-faced gladiator and ferocious lions at you, so you'd better come prepared with a solid game plan of kicking butt with a super awesome historical weapon. That's where this Roman Gladius Sword comes in!This toy weapon looks just like the one wielded by various fighters from Ancient Rome. Of course, it's made out of plastic, since we really can't just sell you dangerous weaponry (it's a liability thing). This toy sword does, however, come with a highly realistic look that should be enough to scare any gladiator or lion in the ring. Of course, you could always use it for LARPing too, since we're huge supporters of any activity that involves pretend fighting against giant cyclops monsters. Whatever you decide to use it for, you'll be sure to look like the toughest warrior around!
Champion of ChampionsThe crowd is dead silent. The champion is about to emerge! Is that a flash of his metal helmet, or a glimpse of his crimson cape? Yes! Here he comes, charging into the arena. He is SO ready for today's battle, especially if it's between him and his squishy purple chew toy, or a tennis ball, or a piece of newspaper, or random sock he found on the floor... anything, really, except for the neighbor's cat (she beats him up). Today, the audience will rally around this pint-sized warrior whose spirit is far bigger than the Coliseum itself! Product DetailsDress your furry warrior in this epically hilarious Gladiator Costume for Dogs! The exclusive outfit slips on over your pup's front legs and fastens alont his or her back. The chest and back are made of foam-backed brown faux leather that's decorated with embroidered gold swirls, while the sleeves are made of metallic silver material. Matching silver-tone gauntlets with elastic edges slip over your dog's front legs. The red jersey-knit cape is sewn in place at the neckline and decorated with a gold-tone medallion. The foam-backed helmet has a red crest and stays in place with an elastic cord. Enter the ArenaHail, Caesar! This pup, about to look ridiculously cute in his mock armor, salutes you! By the end of the day, however, even a Roman emperor would be pledging allegiance and service to a warrior who is as sweet as this one. He has powers that the whole Roman Empire cannot withstand, including warm snuggles, little snuffly dog kisses, and pure enthusiasm for chasing anything that moves. Everyone who sees him will be conquered by him!
Battle isn't all about offense there, buster. You might think you can charge into the fray, wielding nothing but your deadly barbarian axe of slaying, but what happens when there's warrior on the other side of the battlefield wielding the same axe? Then, you might want a little something that we call “insurance of the old world.” You might want a little something called a “shield.” We just so happen to have the perfect one for you, based of the classic equipment of the Norse Vikings!This Wooden Viking Shield brings one sturdy looking piece of battle equipment. It looks just like something that a Viking marauder might use to defend himself during a vicious battle. Of course, this prop is just that! A prop. So, do go out and try to block sword attacks with this thing if you value your life. It DOES, however, make for one awesome LARPing accessory.

What are kings up to these days? They might have nice cars, live in mansions, and wear golden watches. They might employ suited up men with earbuds. The thing is, even if a king gets driven in a nice car these days that automobile is nothing compared to a golden chariot. That fancy mansion isn't much compared to alabaster columns. Really, just take a gander at the pyramids, they are just the king's graves! So, yeah. When we're talking about kings, we know who did it best!You may have heard about Tutankhamun, Ramesses, and Amenhotep being supreme rulers and sure, they all lived a pretty lush lifestyle.

But even with all of that pomp and circumstance, none of those pharaohs could rock the Casbah like this guy- paleontologists have translated the hieroglyphs on his epitaph as Partyonman. The name fits, this King had the sweetest party pyramid in all of the land, a golden tube in his burial chamber hints that he might have invented the first beer bong. Quite a legacy!You won't have trouble convincing underlings to carry you into parties when you're wearing this costume. It includes a sleeveless pullover, gold trimmed tank with a gold trimmed skirt. You'll also get a royal headdress, gauntlets, and a faux leather medallion with a jewel on a necklace. You'll feel like solid gold and you'll look like a king but not just any ruler, King Partyonman!

Hail the KingThe crypt opens. A crumbling stone stairway yawns from the deep. Slowly, the nervous archaologist descends into the gloom. Strange rustles echo from every side, but he is undeterred in his pursuit of history. The light from a lone flashlight sputters over the sandy walls, briefly illuminating cartouches, crocodiles, and blank-faced Osiris images. All of a sudden, the archaeologist senses that he is not alone. There is another presence in the tunnel. He raises the flashlight in one trembling hand and gasps. At the end of the passage stands a golden figure with a staff in hand. History may have forgotten him til now, but he has not forgotten his birthright.

BabeRise from your sarcophagus and step into your destined role - not as an undead mummy but as a royal Sun Pharaoh. Your subjects cheer your return to the dance floor!

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.

(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!
2016–2020Love 'em. Hate 'em. Either way, you can't deny that it was a wild ride having the business man-turned politician for the U.S. President during those years.

Is your kid fascinated by Egyptian mythology? Do you notice his eyes light up whenever the pyramids are featured on TV? Pretty understandable, through the ages, the Egyptians left a multitude of mysterious tombs and temples scattered across the desserts. From the iconic pyramids to the weird temples that held thousands of mummified dogs, the Egyptians have amazed and confused us so many times. We have to wonder, what else is out there hidden by the literal sands of time? When looking at Egyptian art we see a powerful character come up again and again. Anubis, the God of the underworld is the guy that keeps those no good mummies from returning from their crypts. From seeing the care the Egyptians took with their tombs and necropolises we know that a good afterlife was pretty important to them, so it's no wonder why they took such care to honor this God with the head of a jackal. Anubis kept the busy world of Egyptian afterlife running smoothly, after death he'd guide the souls of the embalmed to their rightful place, as long as everything in the tomb seemed above board. So, though your child may seem intimidating when he dresses up as Anubis, he is dressing up as one of the good gods. Though he sometimes showed up as a full-on jackal, this costume portrays Anubis in his humanoid form, which is both more commonly portrayed and much easier to dress as. The gold, black, and turquoise colors of the neck and headpiece gives the costume the regal appearance that Anubis would expect. Topped off with a show-stopping jackal mask, this Anubis costume cuts quite an imposing figure. Those Halloween mummies won't dare cross this guard dog.

The kingdom is in danger.First there was the goblin problem. Now there are pirates threatening the coast, trolls at the bridges, an evil wizard or two, and of course, the dragon.Not just any guardsman can take on these evil forces. Our warrior must be trained in combat, handy with swords, shields, daggers and spears. They must be light on their feet, fit, and wise to deal with such evil invading the kingdom. We'll definitely need a knight. Becoming a knight is an arduous process. A knight starts as a page, works up to squire, and finally, after years of training and shadowing, they earn the mantle of knight. They are the best warriors our kingdom has to offer.But we don't really have time for the whole 'training" thing (sounds like that dragon is getting hungry now (not to mention the trolls and pirates). Is your kid up to the task of defeating evil? Are they agile and swift? Smart and cunning? Do they have some mad sword skills? If so, our kingdom could use their help. Just deck them out in the proper armor: our Child Black Knight Costume. It's a black tunic printed with a shield, a mesh hood and sleeves, with a faux leather belt and gloves. Once they have the outfit, they'll need a weapon. Once they find that, they have our full blessing to go take on the dragon... if they're up for it.
Kid TutIt’s not easy being the Pharaoh of the civilized world. Sure, the ultimate power is nice, but it’s hard too, you know. You don’t see the Grand Vizier having to do algebra homework. You don’t see the High Priest of Amun-Ra being told to eat all his peas before he can have dessert. But when it comes to you, expectations are unbelievably high.If the King of Nubia wasn’t such a doody head big booger-breath, you wouldn’t have such a hard time getting along. But ever since he tattle-taled on you for running by the pool, you’ve had a chip on your shoulder when it comes to international relations affairs with his people.Furthermore, the Persians have been making aggressive moves in the Northeast. You haven’t told your mom about it yet because you don’t want to seem like a baby, but the Kind of Persia is really being a mean butt. No, you don’t have it easy. People just don’t understand how hard it is to rule the richest, most powerful kingdom in the world and go to school at the same time.Product DetailsThis Kid’s Egyptian Tunic Costume is a fitting costume for the ruler of all Egypt. The stylish foam headband with its molded vinyl cobra can be worn with or without the accompanying striped veil, as the Pharaoh desires. The belt has fabric ties and the most opulent faux leather and brocade ribbon draping on the front. The large rectangular crushed velvet can be draped in many ways across the broad shoulders of the Lord of the Nile, or the less-broad shoulders of the Lady of the Nile. The Pullover tunic has cap sleeves to give Pharaoh that extra oomph that he needs to have confidence in the morning.Where’s my mummy?He did it! The King of Persia pushed you in the hallway on the way to Social Studies. As you sit back against the lockers and feel the rage rise within you, you cry out in a loud voice, “I summon my Mummy!” Out of the nearby janitorial supply closet stumbles a humanoid creature covered in bandages and wielding a great staff of power. The King of Persia stumbles back and runs down the hallway screaming. “Thanks, Mr. Janitor,” you say, “now I’ve gotta get to class before the bell!”
Avoiding HenryAs husbands go, any royal woman in the 1500s will tell you to avoid Henry the 8th. This changeable king had a fragile ego and a hard head. He changed the course of history just so he could legally annul his marriage and marry his new crush, Anne Boleyn. Poor Anne was only queen for a short while before the tides turned and Henry became suspicious of his young wife's past and her current pastimes. We're sure the complicated politics at court certainly didn't help the queen very much! In short, the queen came to an untimely and extremely public end. Still, her style and wiles still shine bright, hundreds of years later. If she could have avoided the king's eye, we're sure that Boleyn would have been a major influencer of the 1500s!Product DetailsA staple of 16th-century fashion, this Anne Boleyn kit would look right at home in Hampton Court. The cap is trimmed in ladylike details. Pearls trim the dark green velvet headband while golden ruffles are tucked underneath for a lush effect. A black veil falls over the back, covering your hair for that distinct 1500s modesty. The large pearl necklace with a large gold-tone "B" is straight out of portraits of Anne Boleyn, making your character unmistakable!
