Your son probably dreams of ascending the social hierarchy to knighthood, saving an imperiled kingdom, and living on for time immemorial in cherished tales of bravery, chivalry, and honor. Wow, that's great—what a kid. But none of us can achieve all that at the flip of a turkey leg, you know?We all have to start somewhere, and it's a noble thing to recognize that earlier rather than later. The path to a gilded set of armor, a majestic steed, and a lance of one's own often begins with a plank of wood, some rocks, and an imagination. And what better way to foster that imagination—at the Renaissance Festival or elsewhere—in a set of garments that hearkens back to the good ol' days, where playing a game of chicken on a horse with a pointy beam was the preferred spectator sport. Pondering how this could be in our Boys Renaissance Squire Costume might just get those imaginative juices in your little adventurer flowing!This period-authentic costume (minus the polyester and elastic) will have your squire ready to attend you at the joust, feast on mutton after, and awe at those sword-wielding knights and pirates all the while. If you aren't familiar with Arya Stark of Game of Thrones or Inigo Montoya of The Princess Bride, here's a small spoiler: they are really, really cool—and they wore similar attire. Coincidence? We think not. Now's your chance to equip your little hero with the garb necessary for his rags-to-royalty story to begin!
Life as a wandering warlord is tough. You have to be away from home a lot as you pillage and plunder across the continent. The group of ruthless mercenaries you lead can be a handful. The hours are long and the pay is never consistent. Enemies are always trying to assassinate you, while you also have to keep an eye on any ambitious employees who might want to give themselves a promotion at your expense. Sometimes, you wonder if it’s all worth it.But then you remember—the cape.The cape makes all the worry and discomfort and fighting and danger worth it. There aren’t a lot of jobs that let you wear a super cool cape, and being a warlord is one of them. Every time you put it on, you feel rugged, commanding and invincible. The cape has a wide faux fur color with a plastic chain across the chest, anchored by plastic skull medallions for a little pop. Anyone who sees this cape will know you’re nobody to mess with—and you’ll feel pretty awesome swirling it dramatically. That’s worth a little work-related stress.
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. Nuts to that!Well, luckily, groups of tough women, who weren't afraid of breaking from the social norms decided that enough was enough. They got out, campaigned for the right to vote, and made their voices heard. It's due to these tough and courageous women that we all enjoy the right to vote and now, you can pay homage to those brave freedom fighters with this Women's English Suffragette Costume.Product DetailsThis women's costume showcases an important part of history! It starts with a one-piece dress that's styled to look like a skirt and ruffled blouse, which would have been the attire during the Women's Suffrage Movement. It fits with fasteners in the back and comes with decorative faux pearls on the sleeve cuffs. The cameo attaches to the collar to add an authentic look to the outfit and the whole thing is finished off with a sash. The sash fits around your shoulder and reads, "Votes for Women". The sign is not included, so you'll have to craft your own if you want the full look from the image.Won't Back DownWhether you want to make a social statement about current inequalities in the world, or you just want to show your respect to the proud women who came before you, this Women's Suffragette Costume is a great way to do it! Just make sure you bring your fiercest attitude to the party, because the women who fought for Women's Suffragette didn't back down from anything!
Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.Your son has just gotten the part of Benjamin Franklin in his school play. You knew they were doing a play, and you knew he was going to be trying out, but he kept telling you that he was going to get the part of James Franklin, Ben's brother. But then he got the lead. And you were proud. Then he told you that the school won't be providing the costume.That was two months ago. He has been practicing his lines. Memorizing everything he can for proper immersion into the character. He has even started talking like Franklin. "It's called method acting. Duh." That's what he said to you when you asked about the extra research. Then you remember that you need to get his costume. Now it is the 11th hour, the play is just two weeks away. You need to find that costume, and you need to find it now.Luckily for you, we have this Child Benjamin Franklin Costume. It comes with the grey twill jack that Franklin is always depicted wearing, and an attached vest, just a lighter shade of grey with decorative buttons. And when your son asks where the electric clippers are, you know that you will also need to buy the Child Benjamin Franklin Wig to ensure your son doesn't shave the top of his head, then somehow figure out a way to dye the rest of it grey. Maybe he will pick up the old adage about early to bed, early to rise. Probably not though.
These are a pair of exclusive Men's Classic Roman Brown Sandals.

Modern Age MedusaWe often wonder what would happen if the Medusa was around in our modern age. We know that people who looked her directly in the eyes would turn to stone. That much would still apply. But what about video calls? If she rang someone up on Zoom would they turn to stone on the other end or would they be able to talk over her plans for renovating the ruins she's been living in over the past thousand years? Then again, would she be able to go out and about without anyone turning into marble if she wore a pair of sunglasses? Or does one glance at the rest of her face make you sedimental? Maybe stepping into Medusa's shoes for a day would give us a little inside to the rules and regulations of modern-day Medusa!Design & DetailsThis gorgeous Made By Us Medusa costume channels Ancient Greek mythology from head to toe. The featured dress flows beautifully and is trimmed with a golden geometric pattern around the hemline. A subtle snakeskin sash is layered over the top, falling down one side in a toga-like fashion.

Notable NobilityWhen most people want to dress up like royalty, they probably automatically think of a prince or princess costume first. Usually, in romantic tales, you’re trying to win the heart of a prince or princess so you can become one yourself. However, we don’t always see the appeal in having to wait in line for the throne. Why not skip right to the front and become the monarch yourself? If you’re interested in holding a little more power than a princess, why not be a queen instead? And while dressing like fictional or historical royals can be fun, their outfits are often a little outdated. If you’re looking to flaunt your noble station with some modern style, we have just the thing!Design & DetailsThroughout her early life, Queen Elizabeth II was a style icon. In her later decades, that hasn’t changed, although her fashion sense has. While she was very fond of stylish dresses in years past, now she’s more known for her bold, bright skirt suits. And she almost always has a hat to match. We wanted to make a hat for the modern queen, so we chose to imitate one of her fuchsia choices. This soft, bright pink hat features red feathers on the front for a bold color combination. We hope you’ll feel like royalty in this daring hat!
Outside the LinesWhat's the fun of fashion if you can't use it to reinvent yourself every so often?

The hairpiece features a mesh wig cap that has elastic in its back edge to ensure a snug fit. It's completely covered in strands of black and sea green synthetic hair that is pre-styled in blunt bangs and shoulder-length waves. If desired, the hair can be styled further with non-heated tools. Green GoddessIf you want to add some "I'm a magical sea sorceress with the ability to control the ocean's waves" vibes to your outfit, look no further! You don't have to grow a tail or gills, or sing any sailors to a watery demise - all you need is this incredible wig.

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!

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? A dose of Greek and Egyptian... one heck of a diplomat, artist, and tactician... a Queen and the last Pharaoh? That's quite the resume for a relatively young ruler. No wonder we're still trying to learn everything we can about her! We've got a ton of details about her famous life as the Queen of the Nile. But, what about those earlier years? Kinda tough to be certain about what little Cleo was up to, unless...DESIGN & DETAILSHelp discover some of the missing threads of the story when you crown your little one as the Queen of the Nile with this exclusive costume.

The matching collar, wrist cuffs, and headpiece feature shiny gold trim while the sheer cape is a light teal fabric. All your future ruler needs now is a pair of strap sandals and a scepter! BE KIND TO THE SERVANTSRemember that when your little one is promoted to a virtual empress that they might look at you as being their servant. Well, technically, you did get them this costume and might help them dress up in it, so they're not totally wrong. Just remind them that a good Cleopatra was always kind to her handmaids.
He’s number two!Poor John Adams! His presidency came after George Washington’s, and it was pretty hard to compete with the very first president of the United States. But John Adams is actually pretty cool in his own right. This Founding Father wasn’t only the first vice president and second president of a fledgling country. He also helped write the Declaration of Independence, hammer out a treaty with Great Britain to end the Revolutionary War and was the first president to live in the White House. (Take that, George Washington!) Oh, and his son ended up becoming president, too!For your next U.S.-president-themed costume party, don’t go as some cliché like Washington or Theodore Roosevelt (and definitely not Abe Lincoln, since there are bound to be at least three other people doing the same thing!). Instead, show off your love of history by dressing up like ol’ John Adams, a truly underrated American president.Product detailsLook every inch like a perfect president with this exclusive Men’s John Adams Costume. The costume comes with a jacket and an attached vest, pants, a hat and a cravat. Both the jacket and the pants are 100 percent polyester.

The faux suede tricorn hat has wire along the brim edge to keep its shape and always keep you looking fashionable!The coolest commander-in-chiefYou may have to spend the night explaining who you are to your fellow partygoers, but that will just give you extra chances to tell everyone how amazing John Adams really was. We think that’s a win-win!

Make way for the bad guy.Sometimes it’s fun to be the bad guy. Try it sometime. For example, when a waiter asks you if you want dessert, say that you don’t, even if you actually do. When you’re going through a door and you see someone walking toward it, hold it open for them no matter how far away they are. Sometimes they actually walk faster! And when someone asks you how you’re doing, say you’re doing fine -- even if you’re actually not! With devious feats like these under your belt you’ll be well on your way to full-time bad guy status in no time!People have enjoyed being bad guys for as long as there have been people. The first recorded act of badness took place in 78,000 BC when a very naughty cavemen painted a bunch of wooly mammoths on his neighbor’s cave wall. His neighbor never managed to get it all off. And did you know that the Great Wall of China was actually built as a prank? It’s true, the Chinese wanted to mess with the Mongolians so they built it while they were sleeping. When the Mongolians woke up they were furious because their favorite villages to pillage were all on the other side of the wall. And the Chinese just laughed! What a bunch of bad dudes!Medieval times were no exception. For every white knight there were at least a couple of black knights, walking in people’s flower beds and unscrewing the salt shaker caps at diners. It was a rough time for everyone. You too can be a black knight and terrorize the countryside, doing things like forgetting your mom’s birthday and not rewinding your rental cassette tapes after watching them. No one will doubt your authenticity with this detailed costume, which rather ironically was made by very good people with an eye for fine detail.
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.

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).
Draugr attacks and troll raids might not be common occurrences in modern society, but it's never a bad idea to have a game plan for any bad situation in life. Our plan? Well, it includes channeling our inner Norseman warrior, wielding a mighty battle axe and dressing like a Viking. Of course, it also involves growing a really outstanding beard, but we let's just take thing one step at a time. If you want to be prepared for the eventual troll war that's coming, then you'd better take your first step with this exclusive Viking costume.This Adult Nordic Viking Costume brings a barbaric style that could scare the pants off of any draugr warrior (do draugr warriors even wear pants) that comes your way! The costume comes with a faux leather breastplate, along with matching faux suede pants. Faux fur accents (no animals were harmed making this costume) along the shoulder and boot covers add for an authentic Viking touch that might even make you feel like a raiding a village or two. A matching faux fur arm gauntlet finishes the look.Once you have this entire ensemble on, you may feel the intense urge to grow a manly beard so you can head out to a life of troll-slaying. Our only further advice is to make sure you equip yourself with one of our mighty Viking weapons and shields, since you can never be too prepared when facing off against those deadly trolls!
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.

We have so many questions about how princesses lived in the Medieval era. How could they stand wearing those gorgeous gowns without taking even one selfie? How did they keep those billowing sleeves from dragging through their morning porridge? How often did they actually interact with unicorns, once a week, monthly, biannually? Life as a royal may not have been the perfect life that we've come to imagine from fairy tales but those regal girls certainly knew how to dress. If you see your daughter snap to attention when anyone mentions castles, she will love this luxurious teal gown. Straight out of Avalon, this graceful ensemble would blend into the King Arthur tales perfectly. Once in this gown, she's going to want her first unicorn ride but it'll be up to you to let her know that those mystical horses haven't been spotted since the 1200s. Sure, she might be disappointed but she'll forget all about it once she sees the photos you've been snapping of her. Regal details pepper this velvety gown from head to toe. The metallic edging of the full, hanging sleeves is echoed in the floral design along the neckline and the brocade ribbon belt. Any courtiers that saw a princess in a gown this gorgeous would want her crowned, pronto. Whether your family is attending a Renaissance festival or your girl wants to dress up as Camelot's first lady, Guinevere, for Halloween she's bound to feel that rush of nobility when she feels the lush fabric of her sleeves. Turns out, it's easy to have to best of both worlds. She can dress like a princess but she doesn't have to give up modern conveniences like electricity and plumbing. Now that she's learned that you're just going to have to get used to called her "my liege".

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!

Is your child a historian in training? How many civil war generals can he name? Has he begged you to go to the famous civil war sites like Gettysburg and Antietam?

I'm wearing *this.*" (Points to skirt.) Plus, they actively enforced comfortable social distancing with the sheer circumference of their dresses. No one can invade your personal bubble if your hoopskirts are in the way!

A Seat at the Round TableGuinevere wasn't only the Queen of Camelot, she was also the queen of interior design. Before she came along, all meeting halls only had long tables where people had to shout battle plans and fighting ideas from one end to the other. The long table that Guinevere gifted to her husband, Arthur, changed meetings up for good. The new design merged aesthetics and meeting logistics and officially opened the way for her to remodel the Camelot castle.As we all know, Camelot ended up being one of the raddest castles of the time. She brightened up the cold, dark stone walls with sprigs of dried flowers and copper accented sconces. Velvet curtains made the bedrooms for all the twenty-five knights of the round table warm and cozy in the winter months. Sometimes people even give her credit for making house plants a thing. It's said she hung Maiden's Hair ferns from the rafters to filter the somewhat filthy Medieval air. Way to go, Gwen!Product DetailsYou'll feel right at home among the cozy tapestries and lush curtains of Camelot when you put on this lovely Guinevere gown. The base fabric is soft with a light sheen. Luxurious gold-trimmed long sleeves fall from the fitted forearms of this ensemble. The wide neckline is accented with a printed floral design while the v-waistline is accented with metallic embroidered trim that falls down the front of the skirt. The look is topped off with a golden crown sporting jewels that match the yellow flowers printed on the bodice. Order in the CourtWith a queen like you around, we're sure all of Arthur's knights are sure to be on their best behavior. No jousting in swordplay in your halls, that's for sure! So whether you're headed to a feast at your local Renaissance Fair, you're in a play, or simply want to look extra dignified for Halloween, you'll slip into the royal role with regal ease in this gorgeous ensemble.
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! Our designers put together this awesome look with a dashing gold, turquoise, and black color scheme. The tunic zips up the back to make transforming into a regal entity easy.

The Egyptian PerscriptionIf you're longing for the days of Ancient Egypt, you're sure to love this show-stopping costume! Team up with Nefertiti or Egyptian deities like Anubis or Isis and you'll be able to relive the Egyptian golden era in style. We're so ready to see you roll out your new ideas for the ancient world. It's about time ancient wonders popped up in our new millennium!

Damsel of DistressSee the misty peak of dragon mountain, yonder? They say there's a maiden who's trapped by the wretched beast up there. She weeps day and night, waiting for a prince to save her. Yeah, no. Not this maiden you see here. She's not in distress, she causes distress. She'd like to watch you try to stick her in a high tower somewhere. It would give her a reason to exercise her sword hand.The Medieval times were not a good era for ladies and maidens alike. They were either expected to stay inside, sew, and keep quiet or they were getting kidnapped and trapped in one way or another. Snow White was choked by an apple. Sleeping Beauty was thrown into a coma. And when they were freed they were expected to commit to their rescuer for the rest of their lives. That doesn't sound great.

Terrific TrailblazerAnyone can notice injustice and dream of having a better world. It takes a person with a courageous heart and a fighting spirit to work to make a change and become a force for good. Ida B. Wells' passion for the truth and her desire to help her people helped her to stand up for the voiceless and secured her place in history. She touched not only her friends' lives but the lives of future generations.Product DetailsEmulate your favorite historical hero when you wear your Girl's Ida B. Wells Costume Dress!

Wells helped to create an entire movement that sought justice and equal rights for all. Her commitment to speaking out despite lots of attempts to silence her proves that not all heroes wear capes.

Even though our professional training is in making Halloween costumes, we have an amateur's enthusiasm for a lot of different occupations. So the part of us that likes to read biographies and volunteer at the local historical society was really psyched about this regal Toddler Knight Costume! Unfortunately, their museum doesn't have any displays about the age of chivalry, since the head-to-toe chain mail fad never quite made it to this part of the world. But we're still really excited, so we thought we'd take a shot at giving this outfit some brief historical context. Ahem:About a thousand years ago, people were so good at putting pointy pieces of metal on the end of sticks, they didn't think there was any room for improvement. But along came a clever (and kind of crazy) blacksmith who realized that linking a bunch of little metal loops together was a really great way to stop pointy pieces of metal from getting to the squishy parts of a person! Everybody who had a suit of this new kind of armor became very popular. In fact, the inhabitants of each village and hamlet handed out candy to these glittering guardians, hoping that they'd stick around for a while. That gave rise to knights, a class of armor-wearers for hire, who went from town to town collecting treats for a living! And sometimes they wore crowns for fun (and dramatic effect).In that proud tradition we humbly offer this detailed outfit, so that anyone can reap the sweet rewards that come from dressing up in a shiny coat of mail! The end!
