Be a GeniusBy age 20, Leonardo da Vinci earned the label “genius” and “master,” among others, from his peers in Guild of Saint Luke. After his death, he was exalted: “He towered above all other artists through the strength and the nobility of his talents.” In slight contrast, by age 20, we felt like a genius the first time we soft-boiled an egg in our ramen noodles. But our self-pity is neither here nor there. Geniuses are cut from a different cloth. Are you good at art? Do you have sketchbooks full of doodles and ideas and as-yet-unanswered questions? Maybe you have one of those similarly magnificent minds! The polymath of your generation, perhaps you’ll dethrone da Vinci as world’s greatest painter, or open a new frontier in cartography or paleontology. Or electric vehicles! We bet old Leo would be fascinated by green energy ourselves.Design & DetailsLucky for you, we don’t cut from the same cloth around here either. Our Leonard da Vinci Costume for Men is a Made by Us exclusive, so you know care went into every single stitch. Replete with a long-sleeved pullover tunic, velvet robe, faux-leather belt, and velvet hat, this exclusive costume will get you that much closer to fulfilling your potential. Just make sure you snag a wig and beard to properly accessorize if you aren’t gifted with all that hair to begin with. With all this and a curious worldview, you’ll be ready to bring the renaissance to the 21st century! What’s gonna be your shtick? Our money is on emission-free vehicles. Yes… they will run solely on, erm, rainwater, and positive thoughts. Okay, never mind. We’ll leave the genius work to you.

Road Tripping With Annie OakleyWhile there are plenty of ways to explore the wild west, none are quite as interesting as traveling with the famous (and sometimes infamous) Annie Oakley. For one, when you're riding out to see the famous Teton Mountain range with this sharpshooter as your navigator, don't expect to stop at overpriced roadside diners for greasy hamburgers. You'll be making pit stops to let your travel companion take down a few squirrels for some wild rodent stew. And don't expect to stop at Deadwood South Dakota without a million anecdotes about the drama between Wild Bill Hickock and Calamity Jane. So, you could travel the old west like any other tourist or you could take a chance, see what happens, and saddle up with Annie Oakley. Just make sure you leave room in the trunk for her rifle!Product DetailsBecome a charming symbol of classic western lore when you're dressed as Americana folk hero, Annie Oakley. Her dress is a light buckskin color with fringe along the chest, wrists, and hem. As in the famous photos that she took in the 1800's this dress has wild roses climbing up the skirt and along the bodice. Becoming the LegendBecause of her epic skills, Annie Oakley was hired by Buffalo Bill, adopted by Sitting Bull, commended by the Queen of England. In an age when women were expected to stay silent, she stood up for equal pay and women joining the armed forces. And while you might not be a world-renowned sharpshooter that will go down in history, you can look just like our girl Annie! Want to polish off your look? Throw on a cowgirl hat, a pair of riding boots, and get yourself one of our prop rifles and you'll be ready to go! Just be sure to throw us a free ticket if you're putting on a show.

Lessons From Robin HoodSteal from the rich and give to the poor can be a useful lesson to teach your kids – though you may want to tweak it a bit so they aren’t actually stealing from anyone! Kids are already quite apt to live this mantra by nature – most kids are caring and can see inequities much better than their adult counterparts.But being Robin Hood isn’t all about work – he liked adventure just as much as the next person, probably much more, actually. Getting out and about in the forest and making new friends was something Robin Hood was quite skilled at. After all, they called his band "Merry Men" for good reason!Product DetailsTurn your child into the prince of thieves and the savior of Nottingham in this Kids Robin Hood Costume. This kids costume comes with an olive green hooded shirt and vest combo that has long sleeves and a front placket with brown cord for lacing. The brown suede vest panels fast at the front with three faux leather buckled straps. The details are what truly make this costume stand out: from the matching faux suede gauntlets with padded forearm guards (you know, for all of the arrow shooting), to the matching cuffed boot covers and the pouch that attaches to the black faux leather belt with hook and loop fasteners. The details really bring this costume to life!Halloween EssentialsThis Robin Hood Costume will be a great choice for Halloween fun or for dress-up play. Add a bow and arrow set for the legendary archer (sold separately) and your little adventurer will be ready to lead his merry men against the evil Sheriff of Nottingham!
Home on the RangeThe pioneer days were definitely something to behold. While living conditions weren’t exactly great by today’s standards, the world was their oyster – everything was new and exciting. The possibilities were endless. With so much wide open space, it’s no wonder that the imaginations of those who lived during that time gave us some of the great ideas and tools necessary to improve technology and take us even further into the undiscovered territories of the Americas.

King of the Wild FrontierAre you ready to head into the wild west? As long as you steer clear of the most dangerous and unpredictable beasts in this unchartered region, you should be fine. What's that beast? Mankind of course! They're a tricky kind of animal. The other animals are easier to get along with. Lions, tigers, bears... Davey had it all under control. Fighting a cougar is no problem at all. No tricks, no deceptions. Give him a penknife and cougars better beware! Davey even killed a bear when he was three. Sad, but we're sure the bear deserved it. It probably stole one too many picnic baskets. Those were a valuable asset back in the day! And sure, if you really push him he'll deal with the most dangerous animal out there. He actually took his buckskins to Congress to serve a spell "fixin' up the Government and laws". No wonder he was crowned king of the wild frontier, this man's got skills!Product Details & DesignEmbrace the old West with this wild Made by Us costume.

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.
Coming at 'chaCleopatra might have been lost to history if she didn't know how to make an entrance. Seriously! She wasn't first in line. She was a woman. She could easily have lost her power. But she wanted to rule and she would stop at nothing to make that happen. When her brother cast her out of Alexandria, the capital of Egypt, she simply waited until Caeser came to visit and talk politics. She then had her servants roll her in a rug that was a "gift" for the ruler of Rome. They unfurled her before the Roman general and let her make the first impression for the history books. With her grace, wit, and wisdom, Cleo convinced the military genius that it would be better if she took over the Egyptian rule instead of her troublesome brother. And that, friends, is history. Product DetailsIt takes a lot of confidence to rule like legendary Cleopatra and no ensemble says confidence quite like this look. In classy black and gold, this costume features a geometric bodysuit with a sheer panel at the front and back, framing the hips. You'll love the combination of long sleeves and dramatic V-neck. A zipper up the back and snap at the crotch makes bathroom breaks and costume changes a breeze. Topped off with a beaded cobra headpiece, you'll look every inch the queen as soon as you slip into this Cleopatra costume.Asp Her No QuestionsWe can only imagine all the secrets that Cleopatra had when she met her untimely end. She knew the secrets of Rome as well as ancient Egypt. But as we're not even sure that the stories we tell about this legendary are true or not, we just have to put ourselves in her place and imagine the secrets she carried. It's your turn to live the legend!

Let them eat cake the most consequential misquote of history. Marie Antionette never made this arrogant suggestion, it was her aunt that said it. Also, it was very good advice. The original suggestion: when all the cheap bread was sold out the bakeries should sell the starving peasant cake for the same price as the bread. Not a bad idea, if you ask us.That being said, Marie Antionette did have a pretty intense love for the finer things in life. Let's just say, she had a hard time sticking to the budget. But consider this, she was escorted to France with fifty-seven carriages, one hundred seventeen footmen, and three hundred horses at the impressionable age of fourteen, the example of extravagance was set immediately. So, she thought nothing of using yards of silks per gown and building up her large extravagant wigs to suit each occasion. Her famous ship wig? It was built to celebrate a French naval victory. In a way, Marie's wigs were kind of like Tweets. The newspapers weren't going to report what she said but they would report on what she wore!Marie may not have been a favorite of French peasants but she certainly changed fashion forever. Look at us! We're still dressing like her! You won't have to worry about losing your head when you don this gorgeous ensemble. This gown is lush with a blue silky material and pale mint green ruffles at the sleeves and down the front. Top it off with a gorgeous iconic white wig and you'll be ready for your debut at Versailles. When you look this good you can have your cake and eat it too!

Now, try to imagine what it would be like to actually spark hundreds of innovations that would be put in place for the next 500 years.

10,000 Leagues Under the SeaBeing the god of the sea, you have never had much interest in the affairs of mortals.

Not to mention Cyclopes!But still, there are some things that you think the land dwellers do right.

Quoth the Raven, 'Some Coiffure!' Once upon a Halloweeny, while we gandered weak and weary, at our hairstyle (sad and dreary) upon the mirror of our door, there we wondered a simple query, one that got us rather cheery: "Could we make our hair do more!?" The first step was to get out of that rhythmic pattern of Edgar Allan Poe's spectacular style. It's pretty tough coming up with stellar looks while you're stuck in the mindset of a haunting song. It did, however, give us some solid inspiration for ways to help you access your inner poet. Don't scratch your noggin all night trying to figure out the next stanza of your epic poem when you can transform into the epic writer in a snap!

There can't be too many things in life that are better than being a pilot! You get paid to fly, you travel for free, and you get to skip all the waiting around in an airport! The only thing we could think that would be better is if you were a pilot in a crazier version of reality! Not like a futuristic version that has you flying through space (Although, that would be amazing!). No, think of an alternate reality where you could be a steampunk pilot! With this Antique Gear Wing Pin, you could be manning the cockpit of some insanely geared-out and steam-powered flying machine. Through the infamous London Fogs you would go and burst out of the dark smog into the clear blue skies, quite the wonder it would be. Now, before you would be allowed to fly any crazy contraptions off into the horizon, you will need the proper qualifications. We're sorry to inform you that we can't help out with that... but we can certainly make you appear to have the correct certifications! No one will second guess your flying skills when they see this winged steampunk pin on the lapel of your 19th century pilot outfit. Check out the rest of our Steampunk accessories and really make everyone wonder if they've been transported to an alternate reality this Halloween.
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!
This morning, after just walking through the door, your boss told you that he needs a bunch of extra work done before lunch. Your computer crashed, and it took over an hour to get it back online. During lunch, you spilled smoothie all over your favorite shirt, and you were ten minutes late coming back because you spent so much time trying to get the stain out. And at the gym, all you wanted to do was exercise the bad day away, but the resident jocks wouldn't leave you alone. Does this kind of frustrating day sound familiar to you?Wouldn't it be nice to return to the old days of kings, queens, and warriors? No TPS reports, no crashing computers, and no gym rats.

In the ancient times, war and bloodshed were absolutely inevitable and inescapable but there was one group of people in particular who welcomed it with open arms. In fact their eagerness and greatness in battle has created an immortal name for them. They were none other than the great and powerful Spartans.

Even if you're not the most battle hungry Spartan warrior we can still help you out with the body armor. Try on these Spartan-Style Leg Shields and you can already feel your enemies quaking at the sound of your approach. You'll be ready to take on entire armies by yourself in no time! Don't forget to gather the rest of your supplies such as a sword and shield. You may welcome death in battle but you should probably make it easier for you to take as many foes down with you as possible.
Sometimes, the world just needs a rebel. What would have happened if Robin Hood just decided that he was going to obey the Sheriff of Nottingham's unfair rules and taxes? Sherwood probably would have been torn down to put up a parking lot or something (history isn't our strong suit).

What is a girl’s best friend, asks a number of songs? Well, the quick answer tends to be the shimmer and glimmer of diamonds. They represent beauty, internal brilliance, and the sort of longevity and lasting power that falls right within the idea of eternity. But, ultimately, they are only gemstones. Diamonds might be pretty impressive, but they lack the real vivid color and life that hits what a gal really needs. How can they possibly compare when put toe-to-toe with the idea of the ultimate authority of divine mandated rule!?That’s the question posed to the most famously beautiful ruler of all time, Cleopatra. And what is the biggest problem with leading a massive country full of people just drooling over your magnanimous power? Well, looking amazing certainly isn’t the problem. If anything, such power and beauty only brings about 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.So, it is now time to step up and claim your throne and make both Antony and Caesar roil with jealousy. Do so with this Nile Queen Cleopatra costume. This lovely black, polyester sheath dress is form fitting and has astounding contrast thanks to its aqua edging, gold and aqua armbands with long draping cloth that sings of the Nile, itself, and a sequined headband with lovely dangling beads and a bright faux gemstone in its center. The golden knit apron belt has a mystical scarab design in the same aqua tone that completes the balanced look. Complete your whole ensemble with a cobra staff or jeweled rings. (… Or an antidote phial, just in case some of your ‘allies’ bring in some serpents of their own!)

We surveyed a pool of 100 men to ask them what their beard means to them. This is a brief summary of our findings...Once thought of as a personal grooming choice for only mountain-men and lumberjacks, beards have made quite a comeback in recent years.

"Yeah, if a beard was good enough for Abe Lincoln, then a beard is good enough for me," another participate explained.Men-in-the-making, don't worry because your ability to display a robust beard will come soon enough. Until then, wear this red viking beard to give you the macho appearance you desire. You can see what it's like to have a furry face while also enjoying your time as a kid because it goes fast. Be at ease knowing that you will truly join the beard movement some day soon!
The Masterpiece SpeaksWhat was Mona Lisa thinking while DiVinci was painting her expression in oils? Was she wondering if her sister would be mad that Mona borrowed her best dress to get her portrait done? Perhaps she was plotting on her come back when her sister saw the finished product and finally realized why the gown had been missing every single Tuesday for a month.

Was there a servant in the doorway making faces as she waited to serve lunch? The thing is, we'll never know what she was thinking. Unless that is, she comes back to tell us!Product DetailsSolve the mystery and let everyone know what the mysterious Mona was thinking of by dressing up as her legendary portrait.

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!
