It’s well know that kids are friggen inquisitive. They can ask so many Why or What’s that questions per hour that they’ll either turn into geniuses or witness the decline of the focus of their interrogation from good-intentioned human fast into maddened and whimpering folk, curling for protection in the fetal position in a corner. Yet, still, they will loom over us and inquire, “Why are you doing that?”Rather than attempt to convince these clever inquisitors to halt their investigations, we find it is better to redirect their energies into more productive avenues. Or, more accurately, a street: 221-B Baker Street, to be exact. Home to the most famous detective in all the world, both real and in literature, this address has been home to countless questions and some of the most important discoveries, leading to the solving of some truly ingenious of old crimes.It is time for that tenacious tyke to put the question to some people who really deserve it. And, how better to do it than being clad in this Child Sherlock Holmes costume. Made of conventional polyester, this coat and hat combo will give your kiddo the perfect blend of sophistication and intrigue to help solve all the cases along the way. A crisp set of buttons and an adjustable strap on the hat keep the garb fitting well. Add a few accessories like an oversized magnifying glass or a cob pipe and Moriarty will be behind bars by November… but will it be in jail or the asylum!?

Not only that, she was part of the founding of the American Civil Liberties Union! In 1964, she was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

Go Go GorgonThe Gorgons are myths of iconic proportions, though most only know of them via their matriarch, Medusa. But Medusa is merely one sister of three! She’s the youngest of the three serpent-haired and cursed aquatic sisters who could turn mortals to stone with just a gaze. While the others, Stheno and Euryale might have been immortal, it was only Medusa who etched a place in all our memories. It’s not a happy tale, Medusa’s. Unfortunately for her, cursed by Athena for no good reason, Medusa became a horrible snake-headed monster that everyone feared until another demigod showed up with a bevy of blessed divine artifacts and beheaded her!Design & DetailsThere’s a lot of power in rewriting myth. You can do just that in our exclusive Women’s Plus Size Deluxe Medusa Costume! It was tough to create a look based on a woman who can’t be looked at, but our amazing designers have worked a miracle and created this legendary look. It’s a green and scale-printed bodysuit that will give you the serpentine sway that tempts all mortals. It has the added detail of extending along your hand with a ring sleeve. The bronze halter dress drapes around your hips with a long Grecian drape between your legs. The final detail is a luxurious green faux gem brooch that matches the scales. And because it’s one of our Made By Us exclusives, you can worry less about the quality of that scaly bodysuit and more about how to tempt your mortals. Pick up a serpent wig or detailed bow and take your revenge on Perseus and Athena!Medusa Seduce YaWhen you are garbed up as this glorious Gorgon, know that the striking the right pose may stiffen folks into stone. You'll want to practice this with care to make sure it doesn't happen by accident because there aren't many ways to fix the cursed power of this exclusive Plus Size Medusa Costume.
What we do in life... echoes in eternity.So says General Maximus at the beginning of the classic Ridley Scott film, Gladiator. While that is some expertly written and memorable dialogue, we hope it's also a true statement. But we have no idea! What do we look like, metaphysicists?? We don't know what happens in eternity! But if our life echoes within it, we're glad you're taking a look at this officially licensed General Maximus costume, because it's epic enough to wear forever.The only thing we'd advise against is getting into any actual Roman battles wearing this thing. It's made of latex and not metal as it appears. That being said, you could probably frighten some barbarians with it, but we don't really recommend that either. That would require a costly trip to Germany, and also a time machine to around 180AD. That's also where you'd have to go to get the real version of this armor. Since that technology doesn't exist, we think our version is an amazing first realistic choice!Since this costume has incredible details and quality (How about that realistic armor and fur trimmed cape? It's straight out of the movie!) we think you should go to a party, wait for the exact right moment, then step up into the spotlight and give an incredible, awe-inspiring speech to all your fellow party-goers. That's what Maximus would do! You'll be remembered in poetry and song as the greatest general Rome had ever seen... to give a rousing speech while holding a red Solo cup."Brothers! What we drink tonight... will echo in our bodies tomorrow, and possibly eternity!"*drink responsibly
We Can Do It! It was the 1940s and America was deep into the second War to End All Wars. With so many men shipping overseas to join the fight, business owners were starting to get worried. Who would fill the riveter, welder, pilot, and driver jobs typically filled by men? they wondered. U.S. women everywhere had one simple answer for them - "We've got this!" They kept the country running throughout the war and opened up a path that empowered women are still following to this day. Product DetailsIf you love celebrating confident women everywhere, this exclusive Rosie the Riveter Costume Kit is for you! You'll look just like the queen from the iconic 1940s posters in the knotted red bandanna-style headband with its white polka dots. A blue speech bubble reading "We Can Do It!" waves proudly from a wire attached to the headband's center. Also included are a red and white "Rosie" name take and a silvery button with a graphic logo. Girl Power Grab your favorite chambray shirt and get ready to roll up your sleeves! Rosie the Riveter proved what we knew all along: Women can do anything!
Fierce and FearlessThe Prehistoric era was a tough time - or so we've been told, anyway. The cave people were busy from the crack of dawn till the last light of sunset with hunting saber-tooth tigers, gathering berries, and figuring out how to invent the wheel and the fire (raw saber-tooth tiger meat is pretty gross). They needed courageous girls to help them explore on the backs of their pet pterodactyls and be all kinds of awesome! Product DetailsYou'll look ready for a Pangaea-sized adventure when you wear this exclusive Prehistoric Cave Girl's Costume! The outfit includes a one-shouldered romper made of soft, leopard-print minky fabric with a cord waist tie. It's embellished with jagged brown trim along the neckline that mirrors the skirt's zig-zag hem. The brown faux suede leg warmers have criss-crossed decorative ties and the matching faux suede gauntlets slide easily onto each arm. Top it all off with the hair clip that's attached to a fiber-filled felt bone! Cave CutieBack in ye very olden days, there were no cell phones, TV shows, indoor plumbing fixtures, or chocolate, which would have been sad. On the other hand, there was no homework either, and probably no Brussels sprouts yet. Nobody knew yet that eating your vegetables was better for you than eating sugar. This Halloween, think like a cave girl and collect as much candy as you can! You can eat it next to the fire inside your cave while you paint amazing pictures on the walls for archeologists to find and marvel over. Or did cave kids get into trouble for drawing on the walls of their rooms?
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.
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!
He's got the powerBenjamin Franklin was a superhero of his time. It might be true that he had a receding hairline instead of rippling abs but he made more of an impact on the United States and France than Batman has ever made on Gotham.

He wrote anti-slavery treatise so that all of America's people would eventually be free. And let's not forget all of the people he saved by inventing the lightning rod.

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.

The Last Gear You NeedFor those who love steampunk, they know that the genre is all about the details. A mix of Victorian fashion and old school industrial technology, steampunk strives to create an alternate universe kind of experience. There is something alluring about the genre's impossibly complicated machinery, expecially when it is blended with old timey clothes. It's as if they SHOULD go together—there's no modern technology, or anything—but you know there is something not quite right. It's so fun to believe it's real, though! Keep the suspension of disbelief going with intricate costume details like this Chain Gear Necklace Antique.Product DetailsSteampunk fashion contains a lot of gears, cogs, springs, and other mechanical machinery pieces. It's not just used on useful pieces like aviator goggles that rotate lenses or canes that can also shoot flames. Even corsets, belts, and other accessories are decorated with machinery, to keep the costumes part of the made up era. This necklace has all the little cogs and gears you could want! Even the clasp is a cogwheel and pipe design. The mix of antiqued metal and shining silver adds another element of visual interest. It's the perfect steampunk necklace!
Does your child seem to have an unusual interest in the birth of our great nation? Does his knowledge of the Revolutionary War often put college professors to shame? Does he suffer from early-onset childhood baldness, which is incredibly rare and also might not even exist, but let's just go with it?If so, then rest easy, parent, because we have just the thing for you and your incredibly precious child! This Child Colonial Wig will be just the thing to surprise and delight the kind of kid who knows the customs of the 18th Century the way most kids his age know all the lines from Spongebob Squarepants. And if that’s the case, then he already knows that any fashionable, well-mannered gentleman of the 1700s - including our first five presidents, just in case he didn’t know that - would have worn a wig just like this one! With this 100% synthetic white hair wig styled with sausage curls on the top and the sides, with ponytail tied at the back with black ribbon, he'll feel like he just traveled back in time to the signing of the Constitution!
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!
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.

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.)

Why can’t the post-apocalyptic world have anything nice? It’s always full of weirdos, biker gangs and cannibals… or at least that’s what every post-apocalyptic movie we’ve ever seen has taught us. Isn’t there some kind of future where the toxic waste hasn’t transformed half the population into blood-thirsty mutants? Isn’t there some version of humanity’s future that leads to rainbows, sunshine and everyone singing a spirited rendition of Kumbaya in a peaceful circle?Bah, who are we kidding?

A Fashionable Foothold on the BattlefieldHave you ever noticed how swanky ancient soldiers looked? Whenever they're depicted on old pots, in the ruins of ancient mosaics, and carved into stones flanking historic cities, they are bedecked with fancy tall feathered helmets.

Colonial Etiquette 101Before regular baths, indoor lighting, and other modern niceties were available, etiquette was much more strict. Maybe this was to make people feel fancy, even while stepping through who-knows-what in the streets and picking bugs out of their wigs. For instance, children were instructed to never approach their parents without bowing first. And even then, they had to address good ol' mom and dad as sir or madam!George Washington transcribed party fouls such as, "lift not one eyebrow higher than the other" and "it is bad manners to cross your legs." Honestly, we're not sure if he'd be cool with our conversation style. Still, all judgment aside, it's good to know how to act while wearing this Colonial Costume. And if someone catches you raising an eyebrow, perhaps they'll let you get away with it due to your dapper duds!Design & DetailsThis high-quality Made By Us faux suede ensemble will have you thanking your lucky stars for modern conveniences such as mirrors and cameras because it would be a shame if you couldn't take in your colonial splendor!

Topped off with a tricorn hat, your historic costume will look spiffy in 1700's style as soon as it's out of the bag!Revving for RevolutionOnce you're in this costume, you'll almost feel ready to take up your quill and pen a strongly worded letter to King George! Just add a pair of knee-high socks that you can tuck into your pantaloons, a pair of pilgrim shoes, and maybe even a wig if you're feeling fancy. Once you're suited up, who knows what will happen! Just be sure and take a few rules from George Washington's notes and keep those legs uncrossed!
A KNIGHT OF WHICH REALM?Just because a martial fighter wears a set of armor doesn't mean that anyone knows anything for sure about them. Without a set of pretty clear heraldry, they could be anybody. And, especially if they pull the helm over their head? Well, then you've got practically zero chance. How else do you think that the lady warriors, lowborn fighters, and royal heirs alike prove themselves in jousts only to reveal their face amidst the gasps of the crowd!?Knights come in all types from the armored assassin, chivalric rider, dragon hunter, or royally anointed ser. But which will you be? Are you part of an order of proud paladins who face down darkness at every turn? Maybe one of those round table knights of Camelot legend! Perhaps you'll be a lone ronin with a tragic and complicated backstory that so few of the monsters you face are willing to wait and listen to... (Or are you just hunting for a shrubbery?)DESIGN & DETAILSNo matter which tale you hold in your heart, you must gird your form with proud armor! Our own smiths suffered apprenticeships with Wayland the Weird, himself, just to ensure that this high-quality and shiny armor would meet your mettle with this Royal Knight Costume. Begin with a tunic of silver mesh worn under a complete set of shiny foam-backed plates that cover your torso, hips, and collar. The matching leg covers fit with elastic while the gloves and helmet finish your knightly armor. Complete the look with your foam pauldrons and the attached red cape and you might not even need your sword and horse! (Who are we kidding? You'll want a sword. The horse might be more difficult to get into the adventuring party.)WHAT'S YOUR KNIGHTLY NAME?Once you've got your flawless knight style and backstory figured out, you will need your name! What title (and how many of them you have) is almost as important as which vicious beasts you've beaten. We recommend something like Ser Belvedere of the Grand Lochs, Champion of the Crusade, Beater of Beasts, and Taker of Names.
Nobility! Finery! Passionate and powerful gods! Academic and tempered minds engaging in worthy debate and discourse over complex and important matters! Drunken nights of wild boasting and debauchery! … Well, not all of that seems like it belongs wrapped up into the same perceived culture, but this is the Ancient Rome we know and love and it is completely understandable how so many find themselves seeking to reenact much of the ancient civilization.Whether you have ambitions of high society and the delightful antics that might accompany them or grand designs for a place among the ancient Roman gods, there is certainly one thing that holds true: you must look the part. And that part demands the perfect toga! The illustrious garment is seen worn both by Greek and Roman gods… which is admittedly a bit of a confounding kerfuffle. Are they the same gods interpreted by two different cultures? Two different pantheons who occasionally reside in similar places? Neptune, for one, was a pretty raging guy and rather impossible to deal with on even the best of days, though his Greek counterpart, Poseidon, enjoyed offering council and healing to those he liked… (and tormenting those he didn’t). Well, we might not be able to solve those differences, but we can definitely recognize that they had superb toga taste.And, whether you’re looking at doing a historical reenactment or headed out to the local frat for the perfect toga party, you are going to look fantastic, too, with this Deluxe Men’s Toga costume. The cream colored tunic has a draping front, edged with contrasting black and metallic gold-leaf brocade to give you that exotic and wealthy feel. The sleeves are edged with faux leather and the matching wrist cuffs give you that air of authenticity. Be sure to add the right leather sandals and perhaps a crown of ivy and you’ll be ready to ascend without even needing to debate the deific origins!

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.

King of an Ancient RealmWe hear all about Greek and Roman gods all the time. We get it. Mount Olympus. Thunderbolts. But what is up with the Egyptian gods? What's going on with those immortal dudes? You might know a few basics. There's Anubis, the jackal-headed fella who judged newly expired souls. Then there's the diva, Isis. She was a boss, a healer and giver of life she also inspired mummies! That's right, without this strong woman there would be no mummies or mummy curses. Now, there are plenty more impressive deities but they all had one thing in common. All the gods were super impressed with all things shiny. That's why Egyptian rulers would dress to the nines at all times. Jewelry, makeup, and golden clothing were the royal standard because a really good outfit was sure to earn the god's admiration. Want to become an ancient royal with divine cred? This costume is a sure way to go!Product DetailsThis golden costume is bright and dignified with a white, pleated kilt. The skirt is known as a shendyt in ancient Egypt but don't you dare ask us how to pronounce that. A panel falls from the waist with Egyptian symbols embossed on the surface. The top has a scale pattern, reminiscent of chain mail. A gold cape hangs from the shoulders and it's complemented with a gold draping headdress. Gauntlets compliment this costume, making you look ready to take on ancient world enemies!Has a King to ItReady to take on Ramses' identity? Ramesses II is one of the most famous Egyptian kings. He's known for expanding his kingdom, taking over Canaan and parts of Nubia. This fella even took on pirates. How cool is that? Looking to create the perfect couple's costume?

Casual Knight OutDisclaimer: this helmet is bad news for jousting matches. But, it’s absolutely perfect if you have other knightly duties to perform but want to relax a little. See, knight helmets aren’t comfortable. They’re made of metal, cold, sharp metal. And if yours isn’t cold, it’s probably too hot—there really is no in-between. The point is, as a knight, you have lots to do while dressed as a knight. Whether it’s a short day, wintery day, long day, or sunny day, there’s some discomfort in store, all due to that silly helmet you have to wear. And while we highly advise donning the metal contraption for your jousting matches and whatnot, we’ve got something better for when you need it just for appearances’ sake.Product DescriptionLook like the knight in shining armor you’re meant to be, and stay comfy with this Silver Knight Plush Helmet! By doing away with metal helmet construction, this padded metallic headcover is the solution all knights have been waiting for! In addition to being soft-sculpted, this high-shine helmet is lightweight and made to fit newly recruited and veteran knights. You’ll feel so relaxed under the visor and helm, you’ll find yourself wanting to wear it whether you’re attending your king’s Accession Day tilt or laying down for a good knight’s sleep!
Give Me Liberty!Not all revolutionaries were guys in curly wigs and knee breeches. Some were the ones who knew that even though the war with England was over, the battle for women's rights still had to be fought. Susan B. Anthony was one of those trailblazers who knew that there would be no true liberty until women were given the same level of respect, the same opportunites for work, and the same right to join in cultural and political adventures as men. Product DetailsThis exclusive Women's Susan B. Anthony is perfect for courageous women of any generation who know how to stand up for what they believe in. The floor-length black polyester dress will look amazing whether you're sweeping down the street as part of a peaceful protest or standing in front of a podium giving a rousing speech. Black lace ruffles on the full-length sleeves add an elegant touch and complement the white ruffles on the bodice inset and wrist cuffs. A zipper down the back makes this outfit much easier to get into than the millions of buttons that were typical of that era. (You're welcome.) A metal pendant is attached to the white collar. All you need is a comfortable pair of shoes. Your fearless campaigning will have you on your feet a lot! Who Run the World? They might have lived a few generations apart, but we think that Susan and Beyonce would have gotten along great! Honor an amazing civil rights activist with an equally amazing costume.
Going on a Halloween adventure may not be quite as thrilling as heading out on an expedition to the New World, but in either case, you still need to dress properly. Suiting up in our exclusive John Smith Costume is the perfect way to look dashing for any occasion!Packing up your home life and setting sail for a whole new continent, like John Smith did when he helped establish the Jamestown colony, can be a scary thought, but it could also be full of excitement, mystery, and maybe even great fortune! As exhilarating as it sounds, though, it is not a life for the timid, and you'll need to be cunning, clever, and possess nerves of steel (along with a ton of other useful skills and traits) to be a successful explorer. But when you set out in a rugged and roguish looking costume, you'll at least appear as daring as a famous explorer, which may be all you need to turn the tables in your favor when you find yourself in a tough situation.Now, we're not saying this exclusive costume will make you a successful explorer or Halloween adventurer, but it's a great place to start! The wide shouldered tunic and dark blue pants go well with a pair of cuffed boots, and the included faux leather shoulder strap look good by itself, or with additional costume belts and toy flintlocks for extra detail. Be sure to add the matching blonde John Smith Wig to complete this classically intrepid style, and set a course for adventure!
Being the leader of the Wolf tribe has some important requisites. Firstly, you have to have the right bloodline. The family of the wolf have been ruling the north for a thousand years, and the houses of the north know only one name as their master. And secondly, and perhaps even more importantly, you need to know how to swing a sword in battle. Whether you need to head south to avenge your blood, or you just need to hold down the fort when they snow starts flying, you just never know when you're going to need to have your sword handy to battle it out.Of course, our recommendation would be to arm yourself with this Wolf Master shield and sword set. It has a molded design of a wolf's head featured prominently on the shield, which makes carrying it around kind of a no-brainer. (Since the wolf is the sigil of your family, of course!) But, it also comes with a sweet sword that's ready for action. While this plastic armament set might not actually suffice for battling snow zombies or trying to unseat the king, it will complete your authentic medieval look. Pick up this unique prop accessory set to complete your costume!
Sophisticated and SanctifiedDid you know that Egyptian pharaohs were considered divine? How could they be anything less? They were well-dressed, adorned with beautiful jewelry, and had the full attention of everyone in their kingdom. Can you imagine the epic parties that the Egyptian gods and goddesses took part in? We can only envision people waving a palm leaf over them while they were being fed grapes and enjoying endless amounts of wine. It probably wasn’t all glamour and parties - what with the constant threat of being overthrown looming large. But still, it would be fun to indulge like a goddess every now and then.Product DetailsWith this Egyptian Goddess costume you can indulge in a little ancient fun this Halloween! This Egyptian Goddess Costume will let you look divine and will have everyone’s attention the second you step into the room! This costume comes with everything you need to truly transform into an Egyptian Goddess. It starts with the bustier style dress that has an elastic neckline, clear shoulder straps to keep it in place, and a short circle skirt at the bottom. The bodice of the dress has ruched knit mesh side panels and a matching drape from the back of the waistline. Add the gold faux leather belt for added detail - it is edged with geometric brocade ribbon and has draped knit mesh with a Hook and Loop fastener closure. The forearm sleevelets are gold metallic knit fabric and have drapes of knit mesh sewn along their length. The collar is a semicircle of gold faux leather and is detailed with faux gems.Taking the throneWant to look right at home strutting your stuff in an Egyptian palace? Top off your look with a gorgeous Egyptian headdress. Add gold sandals, a Cleopatra wig, snake armband, ankh staff & jewelry. Then you can order your underlings to begin building your very own pyramid!
No shrinking violetWhile some Disney heroines come from royal backgrounds, sing to birds, and live for a good ball, one of our favorite ladies from the world of Disney checks absolutely zero of those boxes. Her origin story stems from the underworld. She sold her soul to Hades to bring back her deceased boyfriend who then left her for another. That's a lot of flaws for a Disney heroine! But that's the thing, Megara makes mistakes. That's what makes her so likable. She looks at her world with an edge. And when a hero shows up looking to save her she lets him know that she's able to tie her own sandals, despite the hero's baby blues. And yeah, Megara gets elected to betray Hercules but in the end, she sacrifices herself to save him. That kind of courage is not the trait of a shrinking violet, despite the hue of her gorgeous dress. Product DetailsThis gown will make you feel like you're part of an epic adventure. The top is finely pleated with sheer, sparkly fabric. The neckline nods to Megara's Greek background with swirling medallions on each side. It has both an empire cut and a satin-textured sash in the middle, accenting your waist. The skirt is layered with sheer pleated sparkly fabric and a solid purple base. Top the whole look off with our Megara wig and you'll be ready to set off on your own epic adventure. You Tie Your Own SandalsWant to get in touch with your Disney heroine side with a sassy twist? Megara is a great choice to let your saucier side run free. So tighten your sandals and sharpen up your own comeback skills that you can throw out even when you're struggling to escape a monster's paw. Whether you're heading for Hades or a costume party, this costume will be a hit with Hercules fans, everywhere!
All hail the Empress!People tell you all the time that you have a queenly beauty. You brush them off. Who wants to have queen like beauty when you can have empress like power? Beauty is nothing in comparison to power. You could have anything you want at your beck, and call if you were an empress. Besides you are already beautiful.And if you are going to be an empress, why not be a Roman empress? Rome was kind of awesome. There were lavish parties thrown by the rich. They would dine on fresh fruit, and sip the wine of their country. Often times lounging as they ate and drank their fill. They sat talking of the goings on of Rome. All the best gossip of war, hedonism, and betrayal.For a woman who already possess the beauty of a queen, we have this Roman Empress Costume so you can not only have beauty, but power as well. You will be kept fairly busy as a ruler of Rome, but maybe you can have the Senate take care of the business of state. While you lounge with your friends. Eating grapes, and drinking wine. Just be sure to keep a dagger on you at all times. Romans are a crafty bunch who sometimes over throw their leaders. You don't want to be the next Caesar, saying "Et tu, Brute?"
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? Have you decided to start a cross-species synchronized swimming competition? Or perhaps you simply want to explore the deep-sea terrain in your underwater chariot tugged by a million tiny sea horses. Now that we think about it, maybe you should upgrade your transportation. Sea horses are not an efficient means of travel. Whatever your royal decrees might be, you'll have the authority to make them so when you're wearing this regal King Neptune wig and beard set. Everyone knows that sea creatures don't respect a man without a beard!Design & DetailsThis brilliantly white wig and beard set will make you stand out as a god among men or sea creatures. The shaggy look is inspired by ancient Roman artwork, with face-framing shag and a dignified, solid-looking beard. The beard straps to your face with an elastic band. A hole for the mouth allows you to speak clearly, which is a good thing because sound does strange things under the sea!
10,000 Leagues Under the SeaBeing the god of the sea, you have never had much interest in the affairs of mortals. There is so much ocean to rule that you are never short on things to do or places to go! From sirens, merfolk, sharks, and krakens, you have your hands full with the creatures of the sea. Not to mention Cyclopes!But still, there are some things that you think the land dwellers do right. For example, making the perfectly crispy and delicious French fry is nigh impossible when you are so deep in the ocean. Using ocean vents and sea cucumbers just doesn’t create that golden color and crisp texture that you love. Ah well, you can’t win them all!Kinda FishyWhether you are planning on causing a roiling typhoon or a whirlpool of unimaginable horrors, this Poseidon Costume Kit is the perfect way to show everyone that you mean business. Surfing around with your trident and picking up ships like toys is cool and all, but without your bracers and crown you are just some anonymous god.Luckily, this golden, finned pair of bracers and nine starred-crown are perfect for you! You will feel like royalty when you ride a shark into the party wearing these!
A Normal FantasyIt started off like any other day: You tidied up your cottage, spun some on your spinning wheel, fed your animals, and headed to your garden to pluck any troublesome weeds. But as you labored over a particularly stubborn weed, you heard it: the warning bell. Something terrible was coming. Before you could run back into the safety of your cottage, a shadow fell across your garden. You looked up, horror welling up inside you—it was a dragon! You tried to run, but it swooped down from the sky and grabbed you in its talons, hauling you hundreds of feet in the air. All you could do was scream for help.Thankfully, your screams caught the attention of a nearby knight, and he raced to your rescue. You could see him galloping on his noble steed, following you to the dragon’s lair. Relief washed over you as one thought overrode all others:“Thank goodness I wore my good dress today.”Product DetailsObviously, it would never do to be rescued looking like a farmer! When you’re a damsel in distress, you’ve got to look your best when your knight in shining armor arrives. That’s why we recommend always stepping out in this Womens Medieval Maiden Costume. The scarlet pullover dress has a cape attached at the shoulder seams, metallic gold braid trim and puffed sleeves, along with a scoop neckline with a ruffled elastic edge and a plastic gold filigree pin with an faux oval gem at the center. It also comes with a foam headpiece that ties around the head with a gold braid.No matter what medieval monster you find yourself facing, this dress guarantees you’ll always look your best!

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!
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!
Fourscore and seven years ago…Well, it’s been a little longer than that since Abraham Lincoln was president, but he’s still one of the most famous commanders-in-chief in our country’s history. Name a more famous president. Maybe George Washington, but that’s about it, and that’s not really fair, since he was the first president, and all. He got a lot of publicity for that. But Abraham Lincoln is definitely one of the best-known guys, and not just because he’s got his face carved onto the side of a giant mountain!But Abraham Lincoln didn’t start out with an illustrious career. Did you know he actually argued a case in front of the Supreme Court and lost? He also lost five separate elections during his attempts to get involved in politics. So, we guess the best thing to learn from Lincoln is to never stop trying to fulfill your dreams, no matter how long it takes!Product detailsIf you’re itching to dress up like one of America’s most beloved presidents, but you don’t want to wear wooden teeth to pull off a truly authentic George Washington, then we recommend this President Abe Lincoln Costume. The exclusive costume comes with a 100 percent polyester wool-like coat with an attached vest, which features a stylish button-down center. There’s also a satin bowtie with an elastic band to secure around your collar.Of course, an Abe Lincoln costume would be nothing without his iconic top hat, and we’ve got you covered there with a dazzlingly tall black top hat featuring a shiny satin ribbon. (The shirt and pants, though, aren’t included, so make sure you don’t forget to add some before stepping out on the town!)Hail to the chief!Whether you’re heading to a historical reenactment or just a Halloween party, this costume is the perfect presidential choice!
THE PROPHECY BEGINSOur office Seer doesn't usually have a ton to say. To be honest, a bunch of us are beginning to wonder why we even keep her around. "Trent of the number counters feasts upon the quarry of the unwary" is hardly a world-shattering insight... though it did help us realize where all our lunches were going. However, we know she's serious when she starts bringing up the All-Father and says that a warrior of legend is about to sail from our docks!So, we're getting everything ready for the new Earl (and maybe even King). That means preparing a whole fleet of ships for all the trips out west and plenty of ingredients for the various feasts that we know we'll be having. (Don't worry. Trent isn't helping out with that part of the preparation!) Anyway, you best get ready for some of the craziest adventure that you can imagine, because you're going to last at least four seasons when you set out with us! DESIGN & DETAILSThe Seer has spoken and our clan designers have raided at least a dozen settlements to gather enough materials for this officially licensed Ragnar Lothbrok Costume. This exclusive look includes everything you need to step into the role of the protagonist of Vikings. Start with an embossed tunic and matching belt that each look like worn leather. (Can't have you looking like this is your first fight, after all!) The pants have an elastic waist for easy wear and the boot covers are laser cut to look like leather plates! Get yourself an axe and shield and you might not even need the aid of the gods.WATCH OUT FOR BLIND DRIVERSOnce you go to fulfill the prophecy as Ragnar, we recommend that you watch out for some of those warnings. Especially in modern days, a blind taxi driver is a dangerous route to take! You don't want this Ragnar Costume lasting longer than you do, after all.
Everyone knows about Jack the Ripper, and even if you're somehow just hearing about him for the very first time, you can probably deduce from his colorful nickname that he wasn't a good dude. It's also said that the infamous serial killer was never caught, which could mean he died without ever being punished for his brutal crimes. Or, it could mean that somehow, The Ripper is still out there...Nah, we're just messing with ya! Jack hasn't been heard from in over a century, so it's pretty safe to say he's long gone. But as grotesque as his acts were, he did have a certain fiendish flair that could only be found in Victorian Era London, don't you think? You can add some of that menacing style to your own Halloween outings in this spooky Jack the Ripper Costume, but we must warn you, this outfit is not for the timid. You may find yourself feeling unusually wicked while dressed in this dark ensemble, and prone to playing tricks on your friends. You might start sneaking around in the shadows, and leaving cryptically creepy notes for people to find, which could make everyone think that old Jack's back on the prowl!We wouldn't worry too much though, since we haven't heard of anyone picking up any of Jack's deadlier “hobbies” while wearing this costume. This black faux suede outfit will have you looking like a classic Victorian gentleman with a sinister secret, while the red trim featured on the vest and cloak matches the included jabot, and hints at your devilish side. Your diabolical style will be as notorious as the slasher that made it famous!
Kid TutIt’s not easy being the Pharaoh of the civilized world. Sure, the ultimate power is nice, but it’s hard too, you know. You don’t see the Grand Vizier having to do algebra homework. You don’t see the High Priest of Amun-Ra being told to eat all his peas before he can have dessert. But when it comes to you, expectations are unbelievably high.If the King of Nubia wasn’t such a doody head big booger-breath, you wouldn’t have such a hard time getting along. But ever since he tattle-taled on you for running by the pool, you’ve had a chip on your shoulder when it comes to international relations affairs with his people.Furthermore, the Persians have been making aggressive moves in the Northeast. You haven’t told your mom about it yet because you don’t want to seem like a baby, but the Kind of Persia is really being a mean butt. No, you don’t have it easy. People just don’t understand how hard it is to rule the richest, most powerful kingdom in the world and go to school at the same time.Product DetailsThis Kid’s Egyptian Tunic Costume is a fitting costume for the ruler of all Egypt. The stylish foam headband with its molded vinyl cobra can be worn with or without the accompanying striped veil, as the Pharaoh desires. The belt has fabric ties and the most opulent faux leather and brocade ribbon draping on the front. The large rectangular crushed velvet can be draped in many ways across the broad shoulders of the Lord of the Nile, or the less-broad shoulders of the Lady of the Nile. The Pullover tunic has cap sleeves to give Pharaoh that extra oomph that he needs to have confidence in the morning.Where’s my mummy?He did it! The King of Persia pushed you in the hallway on the way to Social Studies. As you sit back against the lockers and feel the rage rise within you, you cry out in a loud voice, “I summon my Mummy!” Out of the nearby janitorial supply closet stumbles a humanoid creature covered in bandages and wielding a great staff of power. The King of Persia stumbles back and runs down the hallway screaming. “Thanks, Mr. Janitor,” you say, “now I’ve gotta get to class before the bell!”

A hat, suspenders, bandana, and a beard. He just needs his own everyday clothes to complete the look, a plaid shirt and pair of blue jeans looks great!

If you think that all Child Tan Pants are pretty much interchangeable, you're sorely mistaken. Unless by interchangeable you mean that a pair of brown-ish breeches makes a great addition to any number of costumes. If what you really think is that our exclusive Child Tan Pants are no better than beige leggings from any haberdasher or five and dime, you're in for a big surprise!Huh. To our surprise, there aren't a lot of haberdashers or five and dimes left. Technically, even though a fresh pair of our Child Tan Pants would boast finer fit and finish, their musty old pants might still hold some value among collectors of vintage legwear. We learn something new every day!Well, our Child Tan Pants are tailored to wearers of modern-day child-size pants, and we hope that means you (or your child-sized companions). Because otherwise we have no idea why we feel the need to prattle on about this superior set of slacks!
