ANCIENT HISTORY OF COMFORTWhy do we love the toga? Well, there is a perfectly simple explanation to the question of why togas are some of the best party attire and most beloved of Halloween costumes. Our ancient Roman ancestors had the right idea when they decided to start the tradition of wearing togas to formal events or parties. They are the most comfortable, stylish, and trendiest form of party garb, and they are so easy!When you have an important event to join, you cannot waste a bunch of time trying to piece together the perfect layered look. And, if you're going to need to participate in a particularly rumpus affair—whether it is an important early-spring date with Caesar or a group outing—you can't be bogged down by all of that constricting clothing! If you have to hang out with a whole arena full of senators to debate everything from the bucellarii to the vigintiviri—there really aren't that many cool-sounding ancient Roman A- or Z-words—what's the answer? Toga! Toga! PRODUCT DETAILSThis Toga costume is a sleeveless pullover robe with a V-neckline, so you don’t have to deal with the hassle of tying a real toga. (Trust us; that is a real pain in the podux!) The sash is draped over the shoulder and sewn, keeping your toga perfectly placed all night, with little risk of it accidentally coming unraveled. You don’t want to show off your Lupa themed underwear now do you? This costume is made from a 100% polyester interlock knit fabric, keeping you clean and dry throughout the night’s adventures.COMPLETE THE LOOKOnce you've got your epic attire, it is time to refine the look. Will go to the route of the Deity with golden laurels and winged sandals? Perhaps a mighty sword to become the army's general? Or will it be a hidden knife so you can hear the astonished words, "Et tu, Brute!?"
Help from Mount Olympus Come closer, mortal. Do not be afraid to approach the goddess's temple. Yes, she is has powers beyond your wildest imaginings, but she is also very friendly and fun too.

Product DetailsLook like a mythical deity in this Glittering Goddess Costume for Girls! A long, sleeveless gown made of shimmery deep blue material swishes around you like a heavenly cloud. The waist is decorated with attached golden trim. A glittery gold sash flips up from your waist across your right shoulder and splits into two to drape down your back. A gold-tone leaf headband serves as your crown. Goddesses Among UsOlder societies were much better at remembering the Olympian gods. Nowadays, the mighty beings are not as involved in the lives of humans (especially after the Trojan War, which was kind of a mess), but on Halloween they can't resist visiting the Earth. After all, Olympus has ambrosia and the Nine Muses, but the mortal world has spooky haunted houses and trick-or-treat candy. Be sure to pack a treat bag to store all of the delicious human delicacies you'll receive!

Long before there were awesome things to watch on modern TV, like pro wrestling, epic summer movies, and binge-able television shows, people had to get creative to stay entertained. Otherwise, they might have died of boredom, which considering how much easier it was to kick the bucket in ancient times, was probably a legit possibility. However, a citizen in Ancient Rome could always take a trip to the local arena to see a gladiator fight, which would liven up a dull afternoon in no time! Though back in those days, if your attention couldn't even be held by watching two dudes in flashy armor get into a bloody brawl, you could test your prowess by stepping into the arena, yourself. It wouldn't be our first choice for entertainment (since gladiators had notoriously short careers...), but if you have an unquenchable thirst for action, a life in the arena might be your ticket to glory!In the modern age, battling to the death for sport is usually frowned upon. But when you're wearing this Plus Size Roman Gladiator Costume, you'll have the look of a fearless ancient warrior, so you can fight for honor in a new type of arena. Yes, we're talking about costume contests, which aren't nearly as gruesome as classic gladiator fights, but can be just as ruthless, and the stakes just as high! This striking costume features nearly everything you'll need to get the edge over your opponents, including foam and faux suede leather-like armor pieces. With this fierce, ancient style aiding your quest for glory, you'll be the undisputed champion of the costume contest colosseum!
The Wrong DecadeDo you ever feel like you were born in the wrong decade, or perhaps even the wrong era? Does all this advanced technology… bore you? Do you yearn for a time when you could exert your will over your legions of adoring followers, by just the mere wave of your hand? Well, it sounds like you wish that you could have been born a pharaoh during the days of Ancient Egypt. Unfortunately, it’s a little too late for that (give or take a couple thousand years), but the good news is that you can still become a pharaoh through the power of costume!Design & DetailsThis adult Ancient Pharaoh costume helps you assume the role of undisputed leader of your home and neighborhood! Okay, so maybe not everyone will obey your commands just because of a costume, but this outfit does give you a regal style that might just get a little more respect out of your subjects. The costume comes with a black tunic and faux leather chest piece. The belt has snakes designed into the front and gold and black fabric in front. A pair of black gauntlets fit around the wrists and a neck collar with gold snake designs fits around the neck. The finishing piece to this outfit is the headpiece, which is fit for a true Pharaoh! It has gold and black stripes that perfectly frame your face in a symphony of royal colors.Once you have it on, your friends may even try to erect a pyramid in your honor! Just wish them luck, since the construction of the pyramids has been a mystery for thousands of years. (Tim from programming thinks it was aliens.)

You've got a real holy warrior vibe going on which we dig. Comes with the territory of being a knight of the Crusades, but some guys just don't have that internal essence to really pull it off.

We don't ever touch the treasure. Just keep collecting it. That's kinda what being a Templar is all about...You might be asking yourself, why don't we just buy something nice for everyone?

But you're a first time knight. You don't get to see the treasure till after your first Crusade. Now let's get going. It's Templar time!
The biggest problem with ruling over a country isn’t the constant threat of betrayal and almost certain early death by assassination—often including truly unusual ways of bringing it about. We admit that dealing with murder plots isn’t a great aspect of the job description, but it at least makes for an eternal story for your subjects and enthusiasts hundreds of years later. The real trouble is the weight of those insane crowns! The divine clerics always insist on bulky gold and the thing gets bigger every generation! There must be a more elegant way to rule…Of course, if we look back through history, it isn’t at all hard to land on the one ruler who had style and grace above all: the lovely Cleopatra. You can wield her charm in your rule with her Cleopatra Beaded Snake Headband. This luxurious headpiece is embroidered with bright golden beads that captivate the beauty and exotic nature of the Nile, all while featuring the deadly intrigue of the serpent. You can trust that all will bow to your majesty in this exquisite crown that won’t make you feel like bowing! Just make sure you keep your trust in your own look and watch out for asps of a different color!
The Brightest BulbIt's no secret that Thomas Edison was a clever fellow. He invented the phonograph, which sparked the first music recordings on vinyl records. He improved the incandescent light bulb, giving light to the entire world. He also invented alkaline batteries that could be used in all sorts of portable gadgets, along with some of the first movie cameras. Why, we owe most of our modern lives to Edison. Movies, recorded music, light... it's all stuff we use every day! We often wonder who the next great inventor will be. All it takes is some wits and a little bit of ingenuity. Maybe your child could be the next Thomas Edison! They've already got the smarts, so with a little guidance, and the right outfit, your child could be positioned to be the next great inventor!Design & DetailsYour child will be ready to create some brand new gadgets when they wear this Kid's Thomas Edison Costume!

The matching pants fit with elastic in the waist, and the vest and collar combo give the outfit a turn of the century sort of look. Finally, Thomas Edison was a dapper dude. He definitey would have been wearing a bow tie while showing off some of his new inventions! This costume conveniently comes with a no-fuss bow tie that your child can wear to complete the outfit.A Part of HistoryIf you have a little genius on your hands, then they might be ready to take on the role of the greatest inventor in modern history.

Queen for a DayThose ancient rulers really knew how to live it up. Why join the 9 to 5 drudgery when you could float down the Nile River on a gilded barge, being fanned by your loyal attendants and eating sugared dates? After all, as ruler of Egypt, you're the living embodiment of the Sun God. You really deserve these special perks. Nowadays, it's harder to get that royal treatment. Having thousands of servants isn't really a thing anymore, and you probably wouldn't want it anyway because, you know, modern sensibilities and human equality and all. But you can still treat yo self! Get that cat eyeliner you've been coveting for months. Book yourself a manicure fit for a princess. And dress as the most sensational, seductive ruler in history this Halloween! Product DetailsShow what a queen you are in this Plus Size Women's Queen Cleopatra Adult Costume!

The attached blue sleeves are as divinely blue as the desert sky, and the golden apron features matching blue jewels. A jeweled collar is the last word in decadent finery. Endless PossibiltiesThe best thing about dressing as Cleopatra is that you can play it as dialed-down or as sumptuous as you like. You can choose to find a dainty headpiece and go the understated-yet-regal route, or you can twine a live snake around your arm and make your entrance on a royal litter. The choice is yours!
RISE, SER GAL-AHAD!When King Arthur is getting ready to launch his final go for the Holy Grail and make that tragic attempt to save the world and bring everyone together for an eternity of bliss, isn't it frustrating that things get all muddled up? You know the story. Jealousy, betrayal, and a whole mess of misunderstandings that even Merlin couldn't unravel. And, now, here we are... waiting for the Once and Future King to try to fix everything a second time.We figure that if only we had the right knights at the Round Table in the first place, we'd have been able to avoid all that mess! Of course, the first step in making the world much better is tapping the Sword of Kings on the shoulder of your little lass. To heck with the idea that gals can't stand up for the chivalric code. We cannot wait for our Lady Knights in shining armor to go hacking at the monsters and saving a few innocent lads!DESIGN & DETAILSLet your little one hoist up her sword and proclaim her oath when she dons this Medieval Knight costume for the gals! Our own blacksmiths have been wrenching and twisting chain all month to put together this dark silver-sequin hood. The silver shirt serves as a comfortable base for the outfit. It features a line of silver chain mail for extra detail while the armor is made of sturdy foam wrapped in dark silver to give it that shiny metallic look. HORSE AND SWORD NOT INCLUDEDNow, your lass has more than earned the rank of knight. You should be warned that your newly named knight might be expecting a steed to save the world. We're a little low on horses in our stables, but we do have plenty of sword accessories and even a few stuffed horsies that might do the job until her true quest begins!
Your Meow-jestyIt's no wonder that the Egyptians assumed that cats were connected to a higher power. Cats do what they do and they do it with confidence. It doesn't matter where those cats are hanging out. Give a cat access to the White House executive desk and you'll catch them knocking the presidential pen off the desk. We like to imagine the cats of the Nile getting tangled up in the mummifying gauze and looking up at the dignified priests like, "what".The cat-like goddess Bastet is one that we all could get in touch with. She's a boss. She made sure that the mothers of Egypt were taken care of. She made sure that the rodents of Egypt didn’t eat all the profits of the fertile crescent. Some mythologies even gave her the war-like title of protector of Egypt. We like to think that all cat-lovers have a part of Bastet deep down inside. This Halloween, sharpen those claws and perk up your feline nature!Product Details & DesignThis gorgeous lightweight black and gold costume is Made-By-Us. Our designers researched both Egyptian looks as well as the goddess's look to create this fashionable and fun look. The top is a blend of metallic gold and lightweight sparkly gauze. The skirt has a center panel with hieroglyphics over the twisting lightweight skirt. With the cold shoulder black body suit underneath, this look is a sleek showstopper that would look right at home at the pyramids. The whole ensemble is topped off with a knit mesh cap with gold stripes on the ears. Crowns Not CollarsIt's about time that cats got back some of that Egyptian respect back! No more Youtube videos of cats getting caught in blinds and missing their jumps. Bastet will set it right. Suit up in this gorgeous ensemble and it won't be long until cats are running the kingdom again.
Picking Your BattlesWhen you're fighting for one of the most powerful monarchies in the world, you might not think anyone has a chance. After all, the Brits had the ships, the men, and the highly caffeinated tea. Who can stand up to that? The thing is, any nation can stretch themselves too thin. The British Empire was one of many nations to realize that one government can't rule the whole world. If you want to do the Redcoats a favor at your next costumed event, do your battalion a favor and pick your battles wisely. Don't get mad at that guy who cuts in front of you in traffic, no matter how tough you look in your smart red jacket. But you could totally put your two cents in when two blunderbusses are arguing over musket brands, that's a battle that a soldier like you can win!Design & DetailsOur in-house designers created a quote the dashing, historically inspired look with this British Redcoat Costume. The long coat's front is framed with a black collar with gold buttons and braid on the sides. The collar matches the cuffs for an official style. The look is pulled together with the attached tan vest that buttons up at the center-front, and with a white cravat that fastens around the neck. Layer the chest belt over the jacket/vest combo and wear it with your own pair of white, tan, or gray pants for the full ensemble. Then, just pull boot tops over a pair of black shoes and you'll be ready to represent the British Empire!Trending TroopsRedcoats might not get a lot of play in today's media but we think this look is ready for a comeback. There's no need for them to support colonialism, they can simply represent everything we love about Britain. Like the British baking shows for instance, is there anything more admirable than a polite reality television show? We don't think so. Invest in a powdered wig and a prop scabbard, British invasion is back by popular demand!
A Herculean TaleKids have a wild imagination. You never really know what kind of world they're imagining when you look at them. You might take a glance out of the window and see them playing outside. But they might see it differently. They might be on a legendary quest. You may see them waving a stick through the air, but to them, they're defeating a mythological beast, just as the mighty Hercules did in his tales. They might be playfully wrestling with the family dog, but to them, they're facing off against the deadly Cerberus. He's running through the park, but in his mind, he's bravely standing up against a legion of bad guys!Well, how about helping your little one's imagination a bit with an amazing outfit? This Made by Us Kid's Roman Warrior Costume gives your child a classic look, straight from ancient history.Design & DetailsOur costume designers are big fans of Roman and Greek mythology. That's why they wanted to create an outfit that captures the look of Hercules. This Roman Warrior Costume starts with white tunic. It also comes with a faux leather chest armor piece, which has red and gold detailing to give it a regal look. It also comes with a red cape, which attaches to the shoulders. The final piece of this costume comes in the form of a leaf crown, which has a metallic paint job. Just place it on your child's head and they'll transform into the greatest warrior that the Roman empire has ever known!A Warrior's CourageIf your child has a wild imagination, or if they just have the guts to fight a hydra with their bare hands, then this child-size Roman Warrior Costume is the perfect outfit for them.

Legend of the Jungle When you travel to the rainforest, keep your senses alert. If you're lucky, you may discover for yourself whether the rumors are true. For years, sailors and travelers have returned with amazing stories about a survivor who has lived among the wild animals with such skill that they have accepted him as one of their own. He occasionally makes contact with his fellow humans, but has no desire to return to civilization, with the exception of an awesome Halloween party. Product DetailsEmbrace your wild side with an exclusive Adult Jungle Man Plus Size Costume! The jungle is no place for a three-piece suit, which is why the brown loincloth with its longer front and back pieces is your best option. Unlike previous jungle men's attire, this loincloth comes with a pair of briefs, which is much more convenient when you're swinging through the treetop vines. The pair of brown fabric arm bands are decorated with brown cords strung with blue beads. Goodbye, CivilizationIf you're desperate to leave the rat race behind for a while, may we suggest an entire career change? The jungle is calling! It might be an adjustment at first as you learn to start your own fires and communicate with the gorillas, but you'll be free to do whatever you want with the rest of your time. And sure, there aren't any coffee shops or showers where you are, but there also aren't any grocery store lines or traffic jams, so maybe it's an even trade.
Maybe you're thinking of dressing up like a king or a queen, envisioning heaping piles of coinage and blackbird pies. But that's not what being a ruler is really like! When you're the wealthiest and most powerful person in the realm, you're everybody's first call when something breaks and they need help fixing it. You're not just some fancypants prancing around in their puffy sleeves and twinkling crown: you're like a well-dressed 24/7 plumbing service. And Renaissance plumbing is not something you want to have to fix, no matter what you're wearing!So we made this fine Noble Renaissance Man Costume for people who crave a life of leisure. Sure, somebody wearing an outfit like this probably doesn't bathe in coffers overflowing with gold florins. But they also don't have people knocking on their door at all hours because a kitty cat or pigheaded goat is stuck in a tree again, and nobody else can afford a ladder. A Noble Renaissance Man like this is free to tend his modest parcel of land or become learned, to play chess or train in swordsmanship. Or all of the above!And maybe he's not covered in gold and jewels like the chump wearing the crown, but we figured that this guy would still have some pretty stylish clothes. So we made his tunic and bonnet out of velvet. Then we lined his cape with satin, and fastened it with a flashy golden chain. We even threw in some great-looking boot covers and stuck a feather in his cap for good measure. It's a complete look, ready for a costume party or Renaissance Faire!
Queen of KattegatSome queens are known for sitting on a comfy throne. They bark orders and they live lavish lives, indulging in their vices, while their people do all of the queen's dirty work. Not Lagertha Lothbrok. She's a Viking queen. She's ready to get her own hands dirty. She'll charge onto the battlefield, sword in hand to cut down the enemy herself. If you ask us, that's kind of queen you want to follow!Well, if you're the regal kind of girl who's got a taste for the battlefield, then this Vikings Plus Size Lagertha Lothbrok Costume will transform you into the battle-worn character. It's an officially licensed outfit inspired by the television series.Design & DetailsThis women's costume is a Made by Us design, which means our costume designers took some serious notes while watching Vikings. They captured her fierce Viking style with this outfit, which begins with a broadcloth shirt that has metallic ribbon at the neckline. The tunic is made from faux suede and features decorative lacing. The belt is made out of matching faux leather material and fits with a brass-tone buckle in the front. The pants fit with elastic in the waist and the foam boot tops are designed to work with any pair of boots from your own wardrobe. Finally, the costume comes with a pair of faux suede gauntlets that fit over your wrists with cord lacing. Put it all together and you have a look that's ready for the throne... or the battlefield. Just make sure you bring your sword and shield along with you (sold separately)!
But wherefore do not you a mightier wayMake war upon this bloody tyrant, Time?And fortify your self in your decayWith means more blessed than my barren rhyme?- William ShakespeareWe all want to be remembered for something. But that tyrant Time works constantly to erase the memory of our work and deeds.

Not a PrincessWhile remaining a popular costume for kids, the life of a princess has never been easy throughout history. As long as one was a princess, there were extreme expectations for your behavior and education. You had to learn to become a diplomate as well as the model for all the young ladies in the kingdom. That might mean grinning and bearing it while your father, the king, creates a new religion so that he can annul his marriage to your mother effectively disinheriting you from the throne. This Queen Elizabeth the First Costume is not for a pretty princess, it's for a powerful matriarch. Design & DetailsOur creative team assigned this design to our resident history buff to create a costume that's worthy of Queen Elizabeth yet affordable by modern standards. This being said, you'll find delightful details within this costume. For instance, the fitted sleeves are trimmed in sheer ruffles and layered under dramatic draped outer sleeves. Queen Elizabeth’s trademark stand-up collar is kept in place with stiff foam covered in the same brocade of the gown to make sure that your character is instantly recognizable. Zipping up the back, you won’t have to depend on a team of servants to slip into this iconic historic costume. And if you want to go above and beyond, add an over-the-top red wig and pale makeup to complete the Queen's aesthetic. Power UpQueen Elizabeth had to deal with getting left in the lurch for many years throughout her teens and young adulthood. Her road to the throne was not a simple one. But once this matriarch became queen, she not only took the throne, she captured the hearts and imaginations of England. While she ruled over 400 years ago, we still are looking up to her royal air. Are you ready to channel this royal icon? Slip into this Made by Us costume to leave your princess garb behind and become a queen!
Ancient KittyOf all the animal kingdoms animals, Mother Nature bestowed the felines with some serious regality; it’s just no wonder the Egyptians deduced that cats were connected to a higher power. Cats do what they want, when they want, and they do it with confidence. It doesn’t matter where a cat is hanging out, or what time of day it is. Give a cat access to YouTube HQ and it would delete everyone’s videos before knocking the CEO’s pen off the desk. We like to imagine the cats of the Nile getting tangled up in the mummifying gauze and looking up at the dignified priests like, “what are you going to do about it?”Design & DetailsChanneling this energy, the feline goddess Bastet owned every room she entered. She was, in other words, a boss. She ensured the mothers of Egypt were taken care of with watchful eyes. She made sure the rodents of Egypt didn’t eat the spoils of the fertile crescent. In some circles, she even got the impressive, war-like title of protector of Egypt. We like to think that all cat-lovers have Bastet inside them somewhere. We know your little one does too. So if you want to let her sharpen those claws, our Bastet Goddess Costume for Girls will be perfect for her. It’s one of our exclusive Made By Us collection, so you can sleep well knowing that love and care went into every stitch of your little one’s new costume.Walk Like an Egyptian CatIt’s about time we put imbue cats with the respect they once had (and deserve)! No more embarrassing cats with YouTube videos of them getting caught in blinds or bouncing off walls after getting their fill of catnip. Bastet—erm, we mean your little one in this Bastet costume—will set it right.

A Mighty Warrior RisesAlways Ready for BattleFor months, your clan has been under attack. Ever since you landed on this rocky shore and set up your village, hostile Norsemen from the surrounding lands have been trying to convince you - mostly using spears - to leave. Many leaders have tried and failed to drive them off. You've been patient, but now it's time to show them what true toughness, bravery, and cunning can do! With you at the helm, your clan will be safe for years to come. Product DetailsThere's a place in Valhalla for you when you wear your exclusive Victorious Viking Costume for Women! The outfit includes a sleeveless brown minidress with faux fur trim on the bodice and waist. The same faux fur pads the shoulders, trims the fabric gauntlets, and covers the leg warmers that have brown faux rawhide cord ties. A faux leather medallion at each end of the shrug has a printed rune design. The skirt's side slit is practical for fighting, but also just really cute. The Perfect StrategyWhere did you put your favorite battle axe and your leather-wrapped shield? You're going to need all your best weapons and armor to defeat that pesky rival tribe. Although, maybe instead of butchering them all in battle, you could convince them to sail away to populate another land. What if you named that freezing northern island Greenland and convinced them that it was a settler's paradise? That would be hilarious.
WHO MIGHT YOU BE?The best part of being in a medieval world is that you could be anyone. Of course, that's also part of what makes the whole thing just a little scary. That cheerful lad down the street running a market cart and trying his best to be proud about day-old muffins? He's actually an assassin waiting to deliver the poisoned bread to a noblewoman! That dirty-faced tavern lass sweeping dry mud from the floor for the sixth time today? A princess hiding from her father's guard! So, when we heard that there was someone new in town, our interest was understandably piqued. Which role in our medieval village will you fill with your seemingly simple appearance? Are you the happy tavern-goer just glad that you have enough silver in your pouch to put your feet up? Do you have ambitions to wed one of the nobility and join the ranks of high society? Are you secretly a wizard in regular clothing, muttering your magics under your breath? DESIGN & DETAILSSet out on your fantastic destiny in a world gone by with this Medieval Merry Man Costume. This look was put together by our own team of design wizards and features a one-piece tunic that casts the illusion of being layered. The ivory jersey sleeves are full and loose. For a clever crafting trick, they are sewn a couple of inches under the sleeveless tunic so it looks like you're fully garbed. Brown cord lacing gives the tunic a period look while the belt and loose-fit pants complete the theme! TIME TO MAKE HISTORYWhen you're dressed like you were part of an older time, it is up to you to decide exactly how everything went down. We can't wait to hear about the stories that you told with this costume. Best part is that with this costume's high-quality construction, there are several tales to be told!
Beauty of the NileWho was the real power in the ancient world? Julius Caeser or Marc Antony? Please. They were men. They had some successful campaigns, but so did another highly acclaimed ruler of their time. Plus, this particular ruler had a huge advantage: Personal style. Dazzling the masses and impressing your subjects is an important part of keeping the throne. And let's be honest: A sweeping gown is much more impressive than a boring old toga. Product DetailsBegin your glittering reign when you wear your exclusive Plus Size Queen Cleopatra Costume for Women! The sleeveless dress has a bodice made of shimmery gold faux linen. Center ruching accents the flattering V neckline and continues down the hips as the bodice forms a gently draped overskirt that parts in the middle to reveal the long metallic knit underskirt. A foam-backed belt with a front drape secures around your waist, and a semi-sheer metallic knit cape fastens around your shoulders via a gold faux leather collar. Crown your costume with the golden faux leather headband! Your Majesty Is Cleopatra #goals? Definitely! It's true that she did defeat her own brother in battle and pull some underhanded tricks, but that's just "making tough decisions." She's a smart and strategic general in her own right whose reign is not to be underestimated. The only thing she wasn't exactly great about is keeping her distance from snakes. Make sure you don't get too close to anyone wearing a serpent outfit this Halloween!
Sometimes kids have no idea what they want to be when they grow up. Some kids say they want to be a doctor, and some say they want to be a lawyer, and some of the smart kids even say they want to be an ice cream tester. But you know you have a unique kid on your hands when they say they want to be president someday. While eating ice cream sounds pretty good to us, there's no better goal for our youth than to follow in the footsteps of our forefathers and one day become president! With a Colonial Boy Wig like this one, who knows what could happen? He just might be president someday because he looks so convincing... or he might just chop down your cherry tree, but don't worry, he'll be honest with you about it if he does!
Some kids like to explore.Now we don't mean poking around the backyard. No, we mean climbing trees, collecting bugs and wildlife, documenting foliage, and getting dirty. We're talking exploring in the most in-depth sense of the word. Kids that camp outside, hike through the woods, and track down critters... some kids are just outdoors kids.Which probably means they wouldn't want costumes of doctors and spacemen. No, they'll need something to suit their tastes, something like this Kids Davy Crockett Costume. Davy Crockett is a famous American frontiersman. Known for feats like defending the Alamo, the legends around this folk-hero are far more colorful. From killing a bear when he was three to killing one with only his knife as an adult, we're pretty sure Davy Crockett was like the Chuck Norris of the frontier. Seriously. His stories just keep getting bigger and more crazy. There have been plays and books about it. Go check it out.As such an epic man of the woods, he would be the perfect icon for your outdoorsy kid to dress up as. Whether for play or party, our Kids Davy Crockett Costume should do the trick. There's a flannel shirt with faux fringe, faux leather belt, a "coonskin" hat, and powder horn. Add a couple knives, hatchets, and rifles and your little one will be ready to take on whatever trouble comes bounding out of that forest.
The Original Fanny PackYou can just picture the scene: Two medieval townsfolk standing together by the side of the road. Maybe they're merchants. Maybe they're knights. Either way, one is complaining to the other, "Dude, prithee take a gander at my doublet. It doesn't have enough pockets." And the other replies, "Friend, thou must hie away to check out Robert the tanner who has some sweet belts with attached pockets!" Product DetailsAlways have enough room for your quill pen, your dagger, or any other Renaissance-era accessories when you wear your Leatherlike Pouch and Belt! Made of brown faux leather with antique-brass-tone hardware, the adjustable belt secures around your waist and has three pouches of varying sizes. Their flap openings are secured with metal snaps. My Kingdom for a PocketAttend the next tourney in style! Your belt with its fashionable storage space will start a fashion among the court nobles. You might even get knighted for your service to style.
Stone Cold Style Medusa is a little misunderstood. All of those heroes spread malicious rumors about how terrifying she was, so that no one would know the real reason that she defeated all of them. The truth is, she possesses very powerful magic, and she's so strikingly beautiful that anyone who saw her would instantly stop dead in their tracks. "How is she soooo gorgeous?" they'd wonder. "She makes that snake hair work for her!" And while they were petrified with awe, she'd defeat them singlehandedly. The end. Product DetailsKnock 'em dead with your beauty when you wear your exclusive Plus Size Stunning Medusa Costume for Women! The pullover minidress is made of emerald green jersey knit and features a plunging V-neckline. The butterfly sleeves are edged with gold ribbon and decorated with metallic green mesh drape that secures to each shoulder via a faux snakeskin epaulet. The golden faux snakeskin belt is embellished with a faceted plastic jewel and the skirt's hemline is printed with a geometric pattern. Crown yourself with the headband that's adorned with snake details! Mythically Marvelous Step back many, many years in time and embrace the allure of a sorceress siren! A few words of advice: Don't trust Athena (she really knows how to hold onto a grudge) and surround yourself with fellow fierce women. Together you'll be so amazing that stories will be handed down from generation to generation about how amazing you are! Even Hercules can't compete with that tale of how you were able to start a statue collection with the victims you collected.
Everyone knows that being a goddess would be amazing. But what would be the best color outfit for a goddess to wear while going about her celestial business? Purple, of course! When your little one is dressed up in this Purple Goddess Costume, she'll look like she'd just strolled out of an Ancient Greek myth!There are a few purple things in the natural world, like grapes, lilacs, and a few flashy birds and lizards, so people have been aware of this pretty color for quite a while. But throughout history, purple dye has been notoriously difficult and expensive to make, and in the case of the dye called "Tyrian purple," which was made of rotten sea snails, it was also pretty gross to make! This meant that for most of history, only royalty and the very wealthy could afford to wear purple outfits. But no goddess is going to be thwarted by earthly technological restrictions like that, and if she wants to wear a purple dress, she's just a snap of her fingers away from having the chicest look on Mount Olympus!Luckily, this dress doesn't require divine intervention (or even rotten snails) to get its stunning purple hue. The cream colored synthetic gown and shoulder drapes transition to a heavenly purple color, which is complimented by gold details and brocade ribbons. Once she puts on the included gold headband and a pair of ancient style sandals, she'll be the best dressed goddess at any Greek costume party!

Nah, QueenLet's set the record straight. Goddesses are not basic queens. Yes, queens can be righteous, brutal, powerful. But they simply aren't Goddesses. Queens might rule over armies and economies but only a goddess can control the weather and bring endless winter to the earth when someone really peeves her off. Goddess stories of terror, creation, and petty revenge are so good that we can't even find any to tell in this description without getting into trouble with the boss. So if "Yaas, Queen" isn't enough for you. If quivering in fear seems more like your style then this Women's Olympic Empress costume is the one for you!Details & DesignYou'll confidently rule the roost when you slip into this goddess costume.

After all, mortals used to go through perilous hurdles and odysseys to gain an Olympic status. Now, all you need to do is order this costume and the power will be yours! Now you might not be able to send a storm to follow that guy who cut you off in traffic, but finish off your look with a laurel leaf crown and a pair of gladiator sandals and you'll feel like you have all the mortals at your beck and call. Just remember, you don't just have the power of a throne, you've got the power of the heavens!
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.
Living HistoryThe Revolutionary War was such a notable moment in history that the memories still survive to this day. In fact, the memories of this event that happened more than 200 years ago are so fresh that there are said to be many ghosts of the soldiers of the battles to this day. It's said that the people of Boston still hear Paul Revere's horse galloping down what was once a cobblestone road near the Granary Burying Ground. In Yorktown, there are many historic houses that have garrisons of ghosts that were taken in to heal from war wounds and stayed there long after they departed. Now, whether or not you believe in these ghostly sightings, you too can become a part of living history when wearing this dignified Revolutionary soldier costume.Details & DesignThis colorful American Revolutionary War costume is Made By Us.

When you're an Egyptian Pharaoh, you need to maintain a certain kind of look. After all, the pharaoh is the supreme leader of an entire nation, so you really can't just roll into the palace without sporting some serious weaponry to protect your status as the undisputed leader of the Egypt. They didn't have laser guns back then (unless our theory of aliens visiting ancient Egypt to teach humans how to build pyramids is correct). And although showing up to the party as a laser gun toting pharaoh might seem pretty awesome, it's not exactly historically accurate. This handy toy sword accessory is though!This Egytian Khopesh is designed after the weapons made during ancient history! The toy weapon is made of plastic, with bronze metallic paint on the exterior. It's signature shape depicts the axe-like curved blade found on classic swords from northern African pharaoh tombs, so you'll definitely look like a regal ruler when you strut your stuff holding this accessory in hand.
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!
Cleopatra is revered for her beauty to this day. But did you know she was a master of pageantry too? Case in point, in 41 BC Cleopatra had an appointment to meet the triumvir Mark Antony. Now, we’ve all had meetings. If we really feel like putting on airs we might put on a little makeup, do something classy with our hair, even paint our nails. But Cleopatra had a golden barge with purple sails and silver oars made just for the occasion, and she rode up to the Roman beneath a gilded canopy while her servants fanned her and burned sweet incense around her. Needless to say, Antony was rather impressed. Think about that next time you need to make a great first impression.This shoulder length bob with bangs is another fine way to make a great impression. If you’re shooting for the Cleopatra look, it’s impossible to overdo it -- the pharaoh wasn’t known for her subtlety. This wig also works for Mia Wallace from Pulp Fiction!

The kind of person who would speak the truth at all times? Yeah? Well then, you might have what it takes to be a knight.In the time of knights and kings, when matters of state were dealt with on the battlefield not in the House of Representatives, there needed to be something to keep knights from going rogue.
