From a Broken HomeZeus has one messed up family. His dad, Cronus, had a bunch of kids with his Titaness wife, Rhea. He was afraid that they would grow up and steal his throne, so he decided to swallow each of his children as they were born in a single gulp! Rhea was understandably pretty miffed about this, so finally, she decided to hide her next baby from Cronus. She fed that dummy a rock instead and told him it was their latest child, Zeus.An all-grown-up Zeus, who was now reasonably angry that his dad ate his brothers, decided to do something about it. Zeus gave Cronus a good wallop, forcing him to spit out his brothers and sisters. Then, he went to war with his ol’ dad and took the throne from him, becoming the King of the Gods.

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?

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.
Mother of RomeWhen Venus gave birth to Aeneus’ ancestor, she never thought her actions would have so much impact on the world at large! From that one line came many descendants, including all those who founded the city of Rome on its seven hills.As if that weren’t enough, Aeneus’ travels led him through wonderful Carthage, where he met, loved, and then spurned the queen, Dido, whose subsequent suicide at his departure created an everlasting enmity between those two peoples.

Country MaidenEveryone always wants to dress up as a Renaissance princess. But here's the thing. When it comes to beauty and elegance, dressing up as someone from the royal court in the 1600s isn't where it's at. Towns and courts in the Renaissance era were so very dirty. In fact, if noblewomen wanted to go anywhere they wore shoes called "chopines". These were extremely tall platform shoes that helped keep hemlines free from all the animal muck and sewer mud in the streets. Unlike modern high heels, these shoes required women to be accompanied by friends on each side just to keep a lady upright. No, when it comes to dressing up in the Renaissance era, you want to be a fresh country lass. No lead-based makeup, platform heels, or suffocating layers of skirts to hold you back from all that 1600s style fun!Design & DetailsThis Celtic Renaissance dress was designed by our in-house creative team. The dress has a gorgeous off-the-shoulder chemise in clean white. The forest green overdress fastens up the front with adjustable laces for a corset look that's quite comfortable. The uniquely cut dress is trimmed with silver and green Celtic trim at the waist for a look that hints at the romance of the highlands!Meeting At the FaireAre you headed to the Ren Faire this year? Dreaming of dancing around a maypole and biting into a whole turkey leg with abandon? If you want to live out your historical fantasies, make sure you're not encumbered by pounds of velvet skirt and stiff corset boning. This Renaissance costume will make sure you feel comfortable while also looking stunning in front of castle backdrops. Whether you're heading to the Renaissance Faire or Scottish festival, taking part in a play, or dressing up for Halloween, we're sure that you'll love slipping into this Made by Us historical costume!
Big Sky Day DreamsCan you imagine what it would have been like to be a child on the prairies, traveling with a covered wagon convoy? A journey by wagon was shaky and uncomfortable so women and children walked along with the oxen, running wild with children from the other families, dogs nipping at their heels, keeping them together. We're sure it was hard work, keeping everyone fed and safe. But it would have been such an adventure for the kids! It's said that the grass of the prairies was long and endless, the wind would make it blow back and forth like waves in the ocean. You can still see the skies they saw when you're out west, big, blue, and bright. It's no wonder that this journey west still captures the imaginations of young and old alike! Make playing pioneer even more fun with this colorful ensemble that's ready for a western adventure. Product DetailsIn bright blue gingham, your child will look right at home in wide open spaces.

A pinafore style apron is attached and has a pretty flowered print. Perfect for spinning in a field of wildflowers, this is sure to be a favorite for playing pretend as well as photo shoots and Halloween. West is the BestThere's no question that westward is the best way to travel until you get to the coast. The sky gets bigger, the mountains get more dramatic, and the adventures get more epic. And if you want to raise a little pioneer adventurer, you've got to start 'em young. Hitch up the wagon and get ready, this costume is sure to spur on all sorts of pioneer playtime!
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. So, whether you're headed into pretend battles, or you just want to look like a glorious Valkyrie, then this shield is exactly what you want in your off-hand.
To Forge or Not to ForgeEver tried forging your own set of armor from scratch? It's not easy! You need to harvest some iron ore, melt it, mold it, and whack it with a hammer. Then you need to heat it and whack it with a hammer some more! At least, that's what we understand from all of the medieval fantasy movies that we've watched...We wanted to create an easier way for anyone to get some solid-looking armor for their knight costume, and our designers came up with this Knight Costume Helmet for adults. The realistic design looks great with any knight outfit, getting you ready for Halloween or the Ren fest in just a few minutes!Design & DetailsThis Made By Us design is inspired by the knight helms seen in fantasy tales.

The exterior has a tarnished metal paint job, complete with brass trim to give it an authentic look. It might not protect you in battle like real armor, but it will definitely make you look the part when you head to the Renaissance fair!

You'll look just as awesome in either location, but the ballroom may have fewer opportunities for you to show off your signature "lawn sprinkler" dance move.
Not Just a Character in a MusicalBefore he was dancing on stage to the music of Lin-Manuel Miranda, George Washington was doing some pretty cool things. No, seriously. Just pick up any American history book and you can read all about the guy. Let’s see, he supposedly chopped down a cherry tree when he was 6… while most kids were playing with blocks at that age. When he was 20, he became a Major in the Colonial Military. He fought in the French and Indian War. Then he brawled it out with the British in the Revolutionary War and became the leader of the brand spanking new nation, the United States of America!George Washington is the kind of man that everyone should strive to be!

Steampunk is many things: a fashion statement, a literary genre, an attitude. And while it may seem like just another passing fad, those in the know understand that this lifestyle will always be a thing of the past – and that’s a good thing.We’ve got a staff full of the pop and counter-culture obsessed, so steampunk has been on our radars for a long time. But for the uninitiated, Steampunk embraces the simplicity of pre-industrial revolution technologies, such as steam power, while at the same time taking on a beautifully modern design aesthetic. This makes for a look that is both retro and modern, which makes it uniquely stylish.This women’s steampunk costume will help you stand out in a crowd this Halloween by showing off that modern sophistication through retro details. The women’s costume includes a dress that has Hook and Loop fastener tabs in the back for a secure fit. The bodice, sleeves, and yoke of the costume are all made of brown velvet for a classic yet elegant look. The dress has cream interlock ruffes at the edges of the sleeves as well as faux suede side panels and an interlock center panel on the bodice. The keyhole cutout below the high, ruffled collar gives it an added bit of detail. The skirt of the dress has an asymmetric hemline that is longer in the back for fuller coverage. The included faux leather buckled straps go across the wrists of brown velvet gloves. The foam top hat never loses its shape and has a brown velvet cover to match the rest of the look. The final touch is the plastic goggles that have an elastic band for a secure and comfortable fit. Add a pair of sexy high heeled boots for a complete look that’s out of this time period!
What it TakesIt takes a tough kid to be a knight, and it takes an even tougher one to slay a dragon! Your little one is the stoutest knight in the land, and a stout knight needs a solid suit of armor. Equip them with this Valiant Knight Costume before they head out on their next epic quest, and they'll be ready for any foe with whom they cross paths!At first glance, knights may just seem like any old soldier from medieval times, riding into battle in a suit of shiny armor and getting into sword duels with villains. But there's actually a lot more to being a valiant knight who can save the day against the bleakest of odds, which your kid may be preparing for as we speak. Perhaps you've noticed your wee-knight training for a life of excitement and honor (possibly with the family dog acting as their squire) in the backyard. They might be using a stick in place of a trusty longsword, but they can still fight against ferocious beasts and protect defenseless townsfolk from certain doom!Product DetailsA knight of such gallantry needs armor worthy of their deeds, and this costume is the perfect attire for the task. The chain mail hood is made of metallic knit mesh, resembling real steel mail, while the foam gauntlets have the look of heavy metal armor, without being heavy or clunky. Add a fierce looking toy sword and shield to go with your knight's chivalrous new garb, and songs will be sung for ages about their daring exploits!
Heading out on an incredible steampunk adventure always sounds like a blast! But any intrepid explorer knows you can't go on a vintage fantasy quest wearing just any old getup. Gearing up in this fashionably fanciful Steampunk Girl Costume is a top notch way to look cute and ready for excitement!In the steampunk world, you have many of the same comforts and conveniences at your disposal as you do in the modern world, except everything is a little bit different. For instance, if you were living in a steampunk society, you wouldn't just hop onto the subway or get in your car to run to the grocery store. Everyone knows that you would board a “pneumatic-actuated municipal mass conveyor” or pilot your “personal autonomous gyro-copter” to the “provisions and sundries shoppe"! What may surprise you, though, are the kinds of dangers you could run into on your journeys, which are also a little bit different. In a retro-futuristic world, you have to keep your eyes open for villainous sky pirates and their fleets of pillaging zeppelins, and mad scientist masterminds stomping around a city in a steam-powered clockwork monstrosity. Sounds like a capital adventure to us!The other thing that may surprise you about steampunk life is how cute the outfits are. Just add a pair of vintage style boots to this elegantly sporty costume, and your trendy blend of Victorian and science fiction fashion will look perfect at the wheel of a massive airship, or cutting loose on a dance floor!
Making a MarkThink about it. With nothing more than a few bolts of cloth, some thread, and some nimble fingers, Betsy Ross created one of the most iconic symbols in all of American history. It's had a few updates since the very first flag was crafted in 1776, but the basic design remains mostly unchanged since then. After all, why mess with perfection, right? She was one of the first women to leave their mark in America and we think that's pretty cool! It's why we decided to make a costume based on the iconic figure!Our costume designers look at classic paintings of Betsy Ross to draw inspiration for this historical costume for women, and they did a great job of creating a look that captures her sense of ingenuity!Design & DetailsThis Betsy Ross Costume for women will help you carry on the legacy of one of America's most amazing women! It starts with a blue floral dress that has a white skirt on the front portion. The dress has lace on the sleeves to help give it an authentic look. The costume also comes with a white shawl that fits around your shoulders and ties in front. The included choker is blue to match the dress and fits around your neck. Finally, the white hat brings the whole look together by giving you a colonial style that looks like it came straight from the American Revolution!Perfect for July 4th!If you love history, then you might want to recreate the iconic moment when Betsy created the first U.S. flag! Of course, this costume also works great if you plan on celebrating the 4th of July, or as an outfit for the plays and pageants! Just be sure to pair this costume up with a classic American Flag (not included) to finish the look.
Discover something amazing!Do you enjoy exploring? Do you have a keen fashion sense? Do you have a reputation among your friends for always getting lost? Maybe you head out to buy milk from the grocery store but find yourself in a car dealership, so you decide to unfurl a flag and claim it as new territory for the motherland. If all of those things sound like you, you might just be Christopher Columbus!A lot of things were discovered quite by accident, but Christopher Columbus might have the record for the biggest accidental discovery of all—a whole continent! Of course, he didn’t really discover it first. There were a sorts of people actually living there already. So, maybe Christopher Columbus should be even more famous for being such a great PR guy! He really spun that “discovery” to his favor, didn’t he?Product detailsWell, now we have a fantastic costume for you to “discover” for your next themed party, and it doesn’t even require charting a map to the nearest costume shop, getting lost, ending up at the old theater and claiming ownership of their props department. Instead, just order an exclusive Men's Christopher Columbus Costume! The long-sleeved pullover robe is 100 percent polyester and features a faux leather belt with antique-brass-tone metal buckle and eyelets. There’s also a velvet-like coat with a faux fur collar and front edging. And, since every explorer needs to explore in style, there’s a foam-backed velvet hat to go with. Pretty much the only thing this amazing costume doesn’t include is your very own flag to unfurl every time you discover something new!Chart your course!Now you’re ready to sail the seas and find another brand-new continent. You’d better start thinking up a cool name for it. Maybe Columbusland? Well, maybe we should leave the naming to you…
TIME TO SEE THOSE TOESIf you're like most, when you get home after a long day (at the office, field, or quarry), the first thing you do is rip those danged shoes off and sigh in the blissful anguish of releasing your feet into the world. But, what's next after recovering!? You want to stay barefoot but what about the chill of linoleum or the flat stone of your earthen home? What about making a mark on your social circles? What about that nasty question of whether you can even see your toes?FUN DETAILSWell, we've got the perfect solution to all those uncertainties with these wondrous Men's Cavemen Feet! These flesh-colored slippers provide the best of both worlds of comfort and perfectly defined toenails. Perhaps you won't be wiggling them so much as admiring!BEDROCK BEAUTIESIt's tough enough wandering around town with all the residents of your community giving you the stink eye because of your bared feet. But, who can tolerate the types of shoes that you're so often expected to adhere to? Talk about lack of comfort! Talk about lack of human dignity!

The littlest command-in-chiefDoes your child dream about someday becoming president? Do they enjoy presiding over a Congress of stuffed animals or writing up their very own executive orders in crayon? Do they craft treaties with foreign governments (or maybe just their friends at school)? Do they constantly talk about balancing the federal budget, creating new federal agencies or appointing Supreme Court justices?We think it’s wonderful that your little politician wants to take on the biggest office in the world. But we’re sure you’re thinking about how difficult it will be for them to wait all the way until they’re 35 and legally allowed to run for the position. We suppose they could try to make a fake ID, but voters might get suspicious when they realize their candidate hasn’t lost all their baby teeth yet!Product detailsWe can’t give your kid a growth serum to age them quickly enough to run in next year’s primaries, but we can give them the next best thing: this Kid’s President Abe Lincoln Costume. After all, if they want to be president, they should go for it and become one of the best presidents our country has ever known! The costume comes with a 100 percent polyester wool-like coat with attached vest, which features buttons down the center. There’s also a satin bowtie with an elastic band to secure around their collar. Of course, of all the things Abraham Lincoln is famous for, we know the best thing is his famous top hat, so this costume comes with one of those, too! The impressively tall top hat features a black satin ribbon and is one size fits most. (Pants and shirt aren’t included, so make sure your kid adds a pair before swearing in!)Hail to the chief!Now your little politician can look and feel the part of a president with this exclusive costume. That’s a lot easier (and cheaper!) than securing a national ticket and actually running for office. We think that’s a win-win!
Under the Sea EdictsIt's your first day as Neptune, ruler of the seas. What's on your agenda? Are you sending armies of stinging jellyfish to punish tourists that let their wrappers and cans blow into the ocean while they laze on the beach?

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.
THE RULER OF THE THRONEEveryone is always trying to convince everyone else that they have the true right to the throne. They might yammer on about who their father was or how many titles they hold. (Bonus points for extra adjectives.) Perhaps they are just denouncing the current monarchy and proclaiming (rather dangerously in the public of a tavern) that they would be far better on the throne than those currently crowned upon it! But, you know where the real power in the kingdom happens to lay. You watch as everyone comes to you—low-born, noble, knight, and knave alike! It is neither gold nor steel nor red or blue blood that makes the wheel turn in this world. It's the ale, the wine, and especially the secrets that spill in your tavern! With the right words, you could make anything happen! And with a simple, "No, you've had enough," you can set those mighty men to tears! DESIGN & DETAILSShow the world what a true queen looks like when you dress up in this Medieval Pub Wench costume. You won't feel low-born for a second while you're wearing this high-quality look put together by our own in-house team of designers. It includes a square neck top with ruffled trim and elbow-length loose-fit sleeves as well as the look of a green corset. The brown skirt has an apron sewed to the front and includes a tie if you'd like to show some leg. You also have your own version of a crown: a cream, triangle-cut bandana! THAT OTHER THRONEJust remember: if anyone questions your power in your own tavern-house, you have the ability to whisper the right words to lead them to the throne. And, failing that, you can give them a sour drink and keep them on the other one all night!
The Ancient Greeks certainly had style nailed down. Nobility! Finery! Passionate and powerful gods! Nights of wild boasting and debauchery! Whether you have ambitions of high society and the delightful antics that might accompany them or grand designs for a place among the ancient gods, there is certainly one thing that holds true: you must look the part. Our modern day has well remembered this and stolen what we can of the ancient times. You’ve heard of the epic toga parties, no doubt? Well, they might brush against some of the style, but they’re still missing the class!But, take that ancient toga and add in a bit of refinement, some properly placed golden sashes, and a pose that is ready to command whole legions and you quickly are finding yourself in the territory of the divine, whether you are a mortal, yet powerful queen of many or have ascended into the highest peaks of Mount Olympus to claim one of the golden thrones as a goddess. The trouble is figuring which you’d prefer. It seems like a silly question: queen or goddess? Who would possibly choose to give up godhood!? But, those ancient Greek gods are a tough lot! Constantly fighting over even minor things and getting themselves into a ton of trouble. Maybe it’d be easier to simply have to deal with mortal affairs!The choice can be yours with this Spartan Queen costume. Don’t let the name fool you, because this backless white halter-style dress could be divine just on its own! But, add a ribbon band below the bust with golden detailing, another at your waist, and then a swath of crisscrossing gleaming white fabric over a floor-length skirt and you have a gown that breaks the confines of time itself. Choose the right accessories, including a goddess wig, golden armbands, or a gold leaf circlet and you could tell Zeus it is time to step down and let reign the first Goddess Queen!

She'll shake her gold-encrusted rattle to get your attention if she wants a refill of her baba and if that doesn't work, then cue the waterworks.

Navigating the UnderworldThe Egyptian underworld is a complicated place. Spirits that passed through would have to navigate all sorts of obstacles including strange creatures, gatekeepers, and a total of 42 divine judges. Smart souls would study the book of the dead to plead their case with the right terms in order to convince the judges to overlook their earthly wrongdoings. After that intimidating ordeal, the souls would then go on to get their hearts weighed against the feather of truth. If all that went well, the souls would be welcomed into the afterlife by Osiris. Of course, only royalty went through this process with Anubis by their side. So, this year, if you're heading to the Egyptian underworld as a mummy, make sure you're treated like a king and bring this Anubis staff with you. A little swagger goes a long way in the realm of the dead!Product DetailsPerfect for a range of ancient Egyptian costumes, this Anubis staff is molded with all sorts of eerie details. The staff is wrapped with an eerie bandage texture. Anubis's head tops the staff and has a striped Pharaoh headpiece. With the face of a jackal, the god has alert, perky ears and a dignified face, ready to help you through all the ups and downs of mummy life.

ROMANS, COUNTRYMEN, HERE IS OUR GEARThere is a reason that the classic look of the Roman toga will never go away. It isn't just that it is crazy fun to dress up in one for your collegiate party. It isn't that the ability to go somewhere without technically wearing pants is perhaps the most freeing experience anyone can ever have. It isn't even the fact that literal gods wore the threads while they were ruling on high in Mount Olympus. It's not even the awe of stepping into ancient history. So, what is it!? Well... actually, that's where we need your help. Hear us out. The gladiatorial style and Roman wear remains one of the most popular and impressive looks out there and we can't put our gladius down on why.

We hope you won't require a weapon, but we have plenty available in case you feel the Ides of March coming soon.THE WHOLE PACKAGEPerhaps the reason the toga remains such a profound look is that it lets you be just a bit of everything. Gladiator, god, emperor, and partier, you'll be everything you've dreamed of when you don this exclusive Roman Toga Costume.
An Electric IdeaThere are many mysteries in the world that simply demand being solved, and we get to be thankful that Ben Franklin was around to help in figuring out a pretty big chunk of them. Now, most know Ben for 'inventing' electricity. And, of course, he didn't create it... but he did come up with all the terms that we're still using today. Who else would have thought to combine the value of a lightning rod with the fun of flying kites and shocking yourself!? But, is that truly his ultimate offering to the world?Consider the shorter folks in the world. Who has the energy to grab a stepping stool every time that you want to get a book? "Nobody!" was the proud answer of our favorite founding father. He knew that folks would one day need a Selfie Stick and that short people everywhere deserved assistance with a longer arm. So, it was to the inventing desk for Ben! In honor of those inventions, our Made by Us team did the same for him. Design & DetailsHop back to the colonial days in the best way possible with this Benjamin Franklin costume. Our in-house team created this design to look authentic while still feeling comfy. (You wouldn't want too many stray fibers while trying out your electrifying experiments, after all.) The ensemble includes a jacket with decorative buttons and attached vest panels to imitate a layered look. The knee-length pants and neck scarf complete your colonial transformation. Add your favorite accessories to tell your favorite Franklin story. The Key to Halloween FunYou don't have to try to reinvent the lightning rod to stand out like Ben Franklin. With this colonial look, you can feel the same hair-raising energy as the legendary lightning bolt on the kite. Grab some bifocals and a balding wig and you're ready to discover the secrets of fun this season.
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!
Renaissance ReadyTo be a Renaissance Man is to be ready for almost anything or at least curious about it all. Which is perhaps why you're so interested in attending a Renaissance festival or even why you've attended several already! But whichever spot you find yourself in, there's one thing for certain: your wardrobe needs to be as ready and versatile as a Renaissance Man would be!Once at the festival, you may find yourself carousing with fellow masters of none in one moment, then jousting on the back of a noble hobby horse the next. You may shoot archery at one station and try your hand at painting like Da Vinci n the next. There may even be a moment for dance and shopping. And in each instance, you'll want to look sharp and feel prepared!Design & DetailsOur exclusive Renaissance Noble Plus Size Costume is here to offer that versatility! The Made By Us ensemble starts with a combination tunic and shirt that fastens at the back with a hook-and-loop fastener. The billowy sleeves of the shirt give the top a familiar loose-fitting style that's comfortable and breezy—perfect for staying cool at bustling festivals. Meanwhile, the long tunic made of velvet and trimmed with faux fur and brocade ribbon provides a regal polish.A velvet cape can be attached to the tunic with hook-and-loop fasteners on each shoulder. With the cape secured, you're ready for a noble portrait, and with it whisked away, you'll feel light and ready to accept any thrown gauntlet. Meanwhile, a Tudor bonnet featuring a purple feather, a chain attached to the collar, and a pair of faux suede boot covers ensure the costume blends well with the fanciest of Renaissance fashion.
It's Toga TimeYou know, some kids just don't want to learn about history. After all, a lot of historical figures look pretty stuffy and some of them wear those white powdery wigs that make them look pretty boring. Not the Ancient Greeks! They're a ton more fun than many of those boring old figures from history.The Greeks had a rich history of powerful gods and goddesses, courageous heroes like Hercules, and last but not least, some really comfy and cool attire.

These Old World Sandals look like something that your grandpa's grandpa would have worn. Back in the day, Socrates would walk the streets of Athens wearing something like these. But, we’re not sure you’ve heard: old-school is IN. Young people all over Brooklyn want to wear what your grandpa’s grandpa wore. If Noah used to kick back on the ark wearing a pair of these on those particularly hot days on the ocean, then that’s what you’ll see in Williamsburg on a hot day. It’s called being a hipster. Unless, you also may need these sandals to complete your Halloween look. Then it’s called smart shopping. Either way, we’re not judging. Pick up this strappy pair to accompany your toga to Greenpoint on Halloween eve, then wear them to brunch in Park Slope all summer long!
A GODDESS OF MYSTERYAncient Egypt offers us a ton of strange history that might never be fully unpacked. With so many people, so wide-spread throughout the territory, it is understandable that they couldn't always quite agree on everything. So, when you've got a feline deity that seems capable of so much at once, it makes sense that they couldn't quite decide what she was the goddess of or even what to call her! Bast, Bastet, Ubaste... or even adored by the Greek as Ailuros!? From there, folks have to wonder if she's the lioness goddess of the hunt, a protector deity watching over the household, a goddess of the sun or moon, or the lady who keeps away disease with her mighty perfumes while helping Anubis watch over the land of the dead. That's a pretty big portfolio for deific deeds! It's no wonder that cats were such holy creatures when you've got a mighty feline goddess who has so many responsibilities.DESIGN & DETAILSAfter learning everything there is to know about the ever-beloved and changing Egyptian deity, our in-house designers were finally freed to show off the glory with this exclusive Bastet Goddess Costume. This luxurious look includes a black, open-shouldered bodysuit with gleaming golden sleeve cuffs and a sleeveless top with a matching gold foam collar and bustled fabric down the bust. Printed hieroglyphic symbols decorate the golden front of the skirt and the black and gold cat-ear headpiece stays set in place with elastic. No godly look is complete without a sheer mesh cape that falls to your knees from the golden collar. Stand in rulership of your domain as the most beloved feline deity of all times. THE BLESSING OF THE KITTIESIt should be no wonder why Bastet remains an adored goddess in an age where cats have taken over the Internet. Keep the divine light shining down while all bend knee to your glorious rule when you slip into this Bastet Costume and rise as a fierce lioness warrior!
Costumes from HistoryWe're all about having a good time on Halloween, and for most folks that's a big costume party where everyone gets together to have a memorable night. While most of our costume products are made with fun in mind, that's not our only pursuit. We aim to cover every costume experience with the widest selection of costumes on the web, and that includes historical costumes. Be it for re-enactments, plays, or just for raising awareness about the important events of history, a historical figure costume can help you do a lot of good by bringing history to life. When it comes to American history and the Civil Rights movement, there are few figures more important than Rosa Parks. We won't try and retell the entire story here (we couldn’t do it justice!) but if you don't know the details of how her refusal to give up her bus seat sparked the Montgomery Bus Boycott, it's worth your time to read and understand how and why that happened. If you’re looking to tell her story in a brand new way, be it for school or a play, we know this Rosa Parks costume will do just that.Design & DetailsThis detailed Rosa Parks Costume is Made By Us, which means it was designed by our own team in-house. The costume is inspired by the outfit she was wearing in one of her most memorable images, an undated photo of her riding the Montgomery Area Transit System bus. The costume is styled to look like a brown overcoat over a plaid dress, but it's actually just a one-piece combo to make for an easy costume experience. It also comes with a brown pillbox hat to complete the look.Sharing Important StoriesHelp share the story of Civil Rights icon, Rosa Parks, when you get this costume recreation.

No Victorian gentleman would be caught dead without their hat! The type of hat they wore usually depended on where they lived, which in the United Kingdom and American East Coast was probably a bowler. It has since become the trademark symbol of a true dapper English gent, and, believe it or not, was also pretty popular in the Wild West. If you think about it, a cowboy hat is basically just a bigger bowler with a wider brim. Who says cowboys can't look classy? These days, bowlers may not be the big fashion accessories they once were, but they can still add some very dashing style to your ensemble. Next time you are dressing up for a fancy party, try this Black Velour Bowler Hat on for size. It would look very proper with a black suit and tie. Or, if you're feeling like experimenting with new styles, see if you can pull off this bowler hat look with your every day outfits!

Of course, what is better than being King than being a God-King!? Especially as a little kiddo!?

Gold-lined robe? Check! Did you remember the serpent cane, enchanted by the mighty deity Ra… who is kind of yourself? Yessir! But… did you remember your gold-braided sandals? Mmm. Well, good thing that we’re looking out for you. With these Child Egyptian Gold Sandals, you can be sure that you are looking royally rad but also leave enough free foot space for you to curl your toes in the sand and maybe get the quick kiss from some of your servants.

This Pilgrim Hat will be a great start!From there you just need the right shoes, stockings, garters, breeches, cuffs, a stylish doublet and some lovely ruff... quite the list of necessities but hey, at least we've got you started with that amazing hat! Once you've got the look down, to truly know what it was like to be a Pilgrim, try to survive through a harsh winter with nothing but maize. Once you do that, you will truly understand the struggle these settlers when through inorder to start the great United States of America!
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.

Whether you plan on dressing up as one of the mysterious and often misidentified Sasquatches or a new-age neanderthal these Hairy Feet will be perfect for running away from Bigfoot hunters and hungry dinosaurs.Of course, maybe you're not running from anything. Perhaps you are but a wee hobbit on a grand adventure. Well, if there is one thing that hobbits are good at, it's going out on adventures that end up saving all of Middle-Earth. How can such little critters excel at accomplishing such huge feats? Hmm... We think it might have something to with their huge hairy feets! Slip your own dew-beaters into a pair of these cement-slappers and you'll be ready for any path this Halloween leads you on.
