Your grandfather was the fiercest Viking the world had ever seen. He sailed from the Iceland, and helped conquer the Germanic people. Then he sailed to Scotland, he defeated the Picts. Boy did they put up a fight. Then he came home, told stories of his time sailing on the open sea. Not knowing if they would make it to land again. It was truly the time of his life.Now you are old enough to go on your own pillaging adventures. Don’t forget this Viking Lord Shield and Sword combo though. You don’t want to be caught on a raid without the use of your trusty sword, or a shield to protect yourself. You remember your grandfather telling you stories of his shield blocked an enemy ax, as he swung Leg-Biter (his sword) at his foe. You’ll have to face some enemy steel to figure out what to name your sword.

Monstrous MaidenMedusa is a fairly well-known character in Greek mythology. One of the three Gorgon sisters, she is most known for her hair made of snakes and her ability to turn anyone who looks at her to stone. Although ancient Greek artists imagined her as a monster, most later works depict her as beautiful (other than her hideous hair). Her story has been retold many times over the years, and usually, she’s painted as a horrifying creature that Perseus is a hero for defeating. However, other versions are more sympathetic to her plight. If you’d like to tell your own version of the story (or just have the power to turn people to stone), perhaps you’d enjoy dressing up as this character!Design & DetailsIf you’ve cooked up your own Gorgon outfit and all you need is some reptilian hair, then you might like this Adult Medusa Snake Wig! Our designers worked hard to bring this mythical character’s most iconic feature to life. The beautifully patterned green snakes are attached to a headband to keep them on your head. The snakes have green and black eyes, red tongues, and a little bit of wire inside so you can pose them however you like. You can choose whether they’re reaching out for a hug or ready to attack!Gorgeous GorgonUnleash your inner monster with this Adult Medusa Snake Wig. We’re sure you’ll have a great time as this mythical character, but we must ask that you refrain from turning anyone to stone!
You’ve heard the quotes and references, but, with Halloween around the corner, it is important to reiterate… just in case trouble is on the line and strange and exotic gatekeeping creatures demand to know: When someone asks if you are a god, what do we say!? You know the answer, so there is no need to belabor that any further. However, knowing the right answer isn’t enough. You have to be able to articulate that answer with confidence What kind of god? What powers? Over which domain do you rule?These are the big questions and the road to divinity is a very important one. Our suggestion is to go with a group of gods who have a lot of experience and still know how to have a good time with the mortals. Off to Mount Olympus, then, to learn about the proper protocol, hierarchy, and your rights and responsibilities as a Greek Goddess. Spooked? Ha, don’t worry. The Greek Gods are quite casual about everything, so long as you don’t muddle up their own machinations.With that handled, it is time to don your divine garb of the Women’s Greek Goddess costume. You’ll be right at home with Aphrodite and Athena in this glorious ombré gradient, floor-length, sleeveless dress that blends from cream to teal from top to bottom. As lovely as that is, alone, the accents are what truly make these cloths majestic. A gold braid edged V-neck and O-rings at each shoulder are matched by the gold leaf headpiece, all of which make for a clear marker of your divinity. So, the new question: Of what are you a goddess? … That one might take a bit longer, so we suggest you pick wine.
You know what’s not an easy gig? Forming a more perfect union. For starters, you have to figure out what truths everyone holds self-evident. Even if you’re the sort who likes making lists, that’s a pretty weighty task. And you know you’re not going get much support from your former bosses - as a matter of fact, they’re willing to go to some extreme lengths to keep you with their organization.And then there’s the paperwork. You’ve got to sign some majorly important documents, and there are plenty of decisions to make on that front. Where do you want to be on the list of signers? Do you need to practice your quill work or just go with your usual scrawl? Do you want to follow that ever-flamboyant John Hancock’s example, or keep your mark more on the modest side? These are big choices. You only get one shot at a document like this, and with any luck it’s going to live in history.One thing you don’t have to worry about is what to wear. This revolutionary ensemble will keep you on the cutting edge of Founding Father fashion. The long, black polyester jacket features double rows of metallic silver buttons, with a stand-up collar and wide sleeve cuffs (careful not to let them dip into the inkwell!). The polyester pants stretch to mid-calf range, with elastic at the waist and cuffs. The vest front features still more buttons and satin ribbon waist ties. Bring it all together and you’ve got the foundation of a more perfect outfit that’s sure to stand the test of time.
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!
LITTLE SISTER GOES BIGTIMEThe myth of the Gorgons goes largely unknown by many, despite the fact that just about everyone has heard of Medusa. Did you know that Medusa is just one sister among a trio? She's the youngest gal of the three serpent-haired and cursed aquatic sisters who could turn mortals to stone with just a gaze. While Stheno and Euryale might have been immortal, it was only Medusa that made the history books! Talk about a little sister with things to do. Unfortunately, the youngest Gorgon sister doesn't have much happiness to her tale. Cursed by Athena for no good reason, Medusa became a horrible monster that everyone feared... at least until another demigod showed up with a whole bunch of blessed divine artifacts and beheaded her! Of course, we're talking about a time of magic and mystery. And now is the time to rewrite some of that story! DESIGN & DETAILSDespite it being really tough to create a design based off a gal that is impossible to look at, our designers have worked a miracle and created this legendary look. Our exclusive Deluxe Medusa Costume is 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. Pick up a serpent wig or detailed bow and take your revenge on Perseus and Athena! A PETRIFYING POSEWhen 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 Medusa Costume.
The Gladiator MomentEver feel like you could take on an entire army, all by yourself? You know, like you're the champion of some unnamed contest? We like to call that feeling a "gladiator moment" and it can happen at any time. Maybe you get it after you finish a project ahead of schedule. Maybe you get the feeling when you ask your crush out and they say yes. Maybe you just scored a perfect game at the bowling alley and you can feel your inner gladiator ready to burst out of you! Any of these things can make you feel like a mighty warrior, capable of doing anything!We've spent a lot of time trying to figure out a good way to recreate this feeling on demand. Finally, we decided to put our costume designers to work on a solution and... quite frankly, the results speak for themselves. Wearing this Roman Warrior Costume will help you cultivate many more gladiator moments in your life!Design & DetailsIf you're ready to assume the role of a powerful warrior from the pages of history, or if you just want a way to accentuate your gargantuan courage, then this Made by Us costume is for you.

It comes with a light-colored tunic with faux leather armor that fits over the top of it. The armor has a gold emblem on the front to make you feel like a gladiator. The royal red cape attaches at the shoulders and the metallic-colored headpiece really brings the whole look together. You'll feel ready to face any challenge when you wear it!Ready Your Weapons!If you want to embrace your inner warrior, then this Roman-inspired costume is exactly the outfit you need! Make sure to check out some of our toy Roman weapons to complete your outfit!
To the modern eye, the ancient Greek pantheon might look a little silly decked out in those archaic robes. But when your to-do list includes managing the harvest, selectively meddling in the affairs of mortals, and getting back at Hades for slipping a whoopee cushion onto the Throne of Zeus, you need an outfit that offers plenty of comfort and a full range of motion. And nothing compares to this tried-and-true traditional look for inspiring devotion and culling favor!Just make sure your costume meets divine standards for craftsmanship and quality, like this Plus Size Olympic Goddess Costume. Because there's a pretty strict dress code on Mt. Olympus these days, thanks to the steady stream of mortals who think they can cut holes in a pillowcase, sneak up to the summit, and pretend they'd been around since the age of the Titans. You're not fooling anybody, guys! Not unless you have a really great outfit!And if you manage to join the ranks of the other great-looking humans who have successfully infiltrated the gods' inner circle, try not to go crazy with all of that power, okay? Because getting zapped by lightning or having frogs rain from the sky is not what we had in mind when we showed you this excellent costume. We just thought you might want to take this classic look to an upcoming party, or immerse yourself in some classical literature by slipping into some more appropriate attire. We really don't want to have to beg for mercy. Not again!
Serpentine StyleIt's time to change up your hairstyle, and you're having trouble deciding what to do. Although long hair looks rather impressive, it's also pretty notorious for getting in the way of, well, everything. (Especially if even the slightest breeze comes along!) But what if your long locks had some more practical purposes? While having snakes for hair might not be a super common feature, we think there are lots of advantages!Snakes on your head give you extra limbs and a rocking style at the same time! They can do everything from intimidating your enemies to helping you eat a snack. And since they can bend any which way, you can make highly intricate serpentine styles without all that hairspray!Design & DetailsYou can rest assured that no serpents were harmed in the making of this Medusa Hat! This exclusive headpiece is made from metallic green fabric that imitates scales. Nine posable snakes with red tongues adorn the top of the hat, and it even has small pockets inside for storing essentials. Please note: Item does not contain live reptiles! (We haven't quite figured out how to integrate a feeding system yet.)
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!
The Ultimate Multi-Tool When you're running into battle, it's helpful not to be weighed down with excess weapons, but how do you pick which pieces of your armory to bring on a raid? Sometimes you need to hack your way through the fray, but other times you need to do some stabbing. Well guess what: You don't have to choose between the two! Product DetailsGoodbye Swiss army knife, hello exclusive Deluxe Viking Spear Axe Prop Weapon! The realistic plastic prop is molded and textured to look like a silver-tone axe blade with intricate carving on a wooden shaft. A silver-tipped "spear point" is attached to the axe end, while the grip is painted to resemble silver. Northern ThreatThe next time that you sail off to do a little light pillaging, don't forget to bring your handy prop weapon! Hopefully everyone will be so intimidated by your fierce and wild appearance that they just hand over their gilt books and grain bins and whatever other spoils they're hiding.
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.
Best Curse EverThe fact that Medusa was cursed (very unfairly, in our opinion) meant that she had to leave everyone she knew behind and make a new home for herself in solitude. She found an uninhabited Mediterranean island where she made friends with a bunch of snakes and set up a small castle.Then she kicked back and enjoyed that fresh Mediterranean breeze. With some nice, fresh fish and the ability to spend her time as she wished, she was in pretty good spirits until that Perseus came along. We almost wish someone would curse us and force us to live on a private island in one of the most beautiful places on Earth!Product DetailsMaking sure you are dressed right for any occasion is very important, which is why we recommend setting yourself up right with this Women's Medusa Queen of the Gorgons Costume. The included dress is both flattering and stylish, taking all the best parts of Ancient Greek style and melding them with modern fabrics and cuts.The plunging neckline and elastic waistbands mean that you will look great and feel comfortable in this awesome costume. The shoulder drapes are attached and hang fetchingly, while the gold, braided rope belt can be tied and draped however you wish. Finally, the molded plastic crown brings together all the serpentine motifs that you are looking for to make this costume extra ssspecial!Snake EyesIf you are searching for the perfect way to look classic and magnificent, then you are in the right place. You will feel like a winner in this cool and comfortable costume. Just make sure you try not to look anyone in the eyes until you make sure you want them to be stone!

Don't Take that Throne with ME!Cleopatra might have born royal but she had to struggle to rule. First, it was her little brother that tried to take the throne. Then it was her other little brother. Because of her ambition, she was tossed out of the capital city. Tough stuff. This might have stopped someone less intense. But Cleopatra is an icon for a reason! The down and out queen had her servants roll her up in a carpet and sneak her into the capital's palace when Rome's king was visiting. When she was unfurled, her fearless nature, witty way of speaking, and relentless charm were enough. She was an obvious leader. She convinced Rome's king to back her up in her bid for the throne. With moves like this, there was no doubt that Cleopatra earned her crown!Design & DetailsWe love making our historical costumes extra fun, fashionable, and comfortable. That's why our Made by Us Cleopatra crown is made with comfortable foam while featuring plenty of sparkle in the gemstones and sequin trimmed centerpiece. The crown is trimmed with beads the echo Cleopatra's signature hairstyle so you can be sure people will recognize your iconic character as soon as you enter the room!
It really doesn’t matter where you look for ancient tales about some of the most famous of mythical creatures. Ultimately, the core of the tale rings pretty accurate no matter where you’re finding it. Such is the case of the mysterious Medusa. In some tales, she was a woman of such incredible beauty that she was cursed by jealous gods, turned into a monster that no mortal could handle looking upon, ultimately even meeting her own end upon seeing her horrific reflection. In others, she was a sorceress granted great magic by demons who ultimately subverted her form over several years. But, one great fear remains true of the mighty gorgon… her gorgeous locks of hair became a nest of hissing vipers!But, who is to say that a nest of serpent hair can’t still be pretty! Prove those jealous gods and cruel demons wrong by showing off this exotic and lovely Wicked Medusa wig. This synthetic weave of vibrant green dreadlocks have just enough of the entwined serpent look to give people a second thought about getting too close but are exotic and beautiful enough that they’ll have to take a second look! Join this with the right sequined green dress or a nice set of serpent contact lenses to turn monster into mystery!

Does not come with Big StickTeddy Roosevelt is the least presidential o all the presidents. In our opinion, that's one of his best qualities. He wasn't stuck up, in fact, he was always getting into all sorts of scrapes even after he was voted into office. He went blind in one eye after a boxing incident in the White House. Did he stop fighting in the White House after that happened? Not really, he just switched to jiu-jitsu. Teddy didn't hesitate to become the first president to travel the continental US, braving the treacherous wilderness of the wild west despite the worries of the politicians back in Washington. Actually, he took it further, while he was on the west coast on a speaking tour he snuck off with John Muir to go camping and explore the natural wonders of the Rockies and Yellowstone. This rebellious backpacking trip inspired him to make these national wonders into national parks. Also, we're pretty sure that's where he got that big stick that he mentioned in that famous quote of his. Product Details & DesignWhen we designed this Made-By-Us costume we wanted to represent the other side of US presidential history. This costume is both dignified as well as exploration ready. The suit has a khaki color and an early nineteen-hundreds cut. The brass buttons, jaunty brimmed hat, and collar embroidery add to the presidential flair while the holsters on the belt make you look rough and ready.Speaking Softly OptionalWhether you're choosing a look for Presidents Day or you want a historic look for Halloween, you'll love this dashing costume. You might find yourself longing to explore the wilderness and take on both politicians and moose with your bare hands but that's just a part of transforming into one of the wildest presidents of the US. Do like Teddy would do and take it in stride!
You got to hand it to Hermes, this guy was made of quick stuff! He had wings on his helmet, he had wings on his shoes, he even had wings on his staff! This guy was made for speed. Because of his ability to fly fast and far, the gods of Olympus hired him on as living instant messenger between the gods and mortals. This fast fellow used all that responsibility he got to cause a lot of mischief on Olympus. Lucky for him he was quick on his feet and rarely got into a bind he couldn't get out of. Who wouldn't want the ability to cause mischief and escape the consequences? Although, some of us probably have younger siblings that have somehow acquired that ability. If you want to be a Greek God this Halloween or for a future toga party, this winged makes for an instantly recognizable character. You'll have so much fun, the night will fly by!
Interesting InsectsWhen we think about steampunk-themed items, we usually think of mechanics. After all, the idea is to consider what our world would look like if we still ran things on steam instead of other forms of energy. We don’t always wonder what mechanical animals would look like. Here’s one imagining of an awesome insect! We’ve always been a little disappointed that dragonflies don’t actually look like miniature dragons. However, they’re still really cool! They have 4 wings instead of the typical 2, which is pretty neat, and they come in so many different colors. In the steampunk world, they’re made of metal so they’re a little less vibrant, but their wings are still beautiful!Product DetailsAdd the perfect gear-themed accessory to your steampunk outfit with this antique dragonfly gear pin! It has gears to emulate that antique style while keeping the shape of the fascinating bug, and attaches with a safety pin to minimize stabbing. Use it to complete your costume or send it to a friend as a fantastic steampunk gift!Don’t Bug Me!If you’re obsessed with the imaginary era of gears and steam, this antique dragonfly gear steampunk pin is for you. Its beautiful insect design merges the natural with the artificial, and is a great accessory for your next costume!
Luxurious FameWhile Frederick Douglass certainly didn't have anything even approaching a great early life, becoming the literal face of change in a time of many wrongs is an accomplishment like no other! And, looking fantastic while moving the moment forward only helped to change the tides of history!Naturally, his tasks and words are by far the greater force of Frederick Douglass' memory, but none can deny that the wise, aged look of the African American writer, poet, orator, activist, and preacher help to keep him at the forefront of history even today.Product DetailsChannel the look of the early American boat-rocker with this Frederick Douglass Wig and Goatee set. The wig is styled as a large Afro with the perfect blend of dark, black hair and tinges of gray to give the authentic powerful but wise look that you're going for. The matching goatee somehow manages to heighten both! The combo makes for a perfect historic look.Intimidating and ComfortingThere's just something that is both welcoming and absolutely classic about the image of the powerful preacher with his salt-and-pepper hair. There's a reason that it's a style that is still popular and eye-catching today. Frederick Douglass remains the inspiration for all of them and you can channel that same take-no-nonsense wisdom with this wig and goatee set!
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.
Once long, long ago there was an adventurer. She loved to go spelunking and deep sea diving, when she wasn't out looking for treasure she was coming up with in steampunk inventions. She had both engineers and crazy mad scientists test her new prototype of goggles. They were all shocked by her talent and ordered over 237 to be made withing a weeks time. Well, that was not something she could create, so instead she started to shop online. She was in luck when she found the Radioactive Aviator Black Goggles. You can be just like her in the cool Radioactive Aviator Black Goggles for your next steampunk outfit. The lenses are clear with faux leather eyepieces for polish. It fits to the head with an adjustable elastic band.

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!
What ever are you going to wear to the History Department’s annual Halloween party this year? Last year, you went as Henry V; the year before you did a mean Paul Revere. This year it’s time to take it way, way, WAY back to ancient Egypt. We guess you’re serious about taking gold in the costume competition championship, eh?Ever since you took over teaching Ancient Civ you’ve been wondering what your favorite historical era would truly be like. You know what they say: if you want to know how another person lived, you have to walk a mile in his sandals. Dressed in this historical Egyptian Pharaoh Costume, you can finally follow in the footsteps of those worshiped as if they were gods! Of course, being a pharaoh isn’t all about looking nifty (though that’s a big part of it). If you are serious about defending your kingdom, you’ll need to consider adding a shield and a spear or bow and arrow set before you mount your chariot and gallop off to the gala! But you don’t care about those commoners; you are a pharaoh for crying out loud! Enjoy the 21st century while you can! You can invite Cleo to be your date and your rise to power will surely be great as you ascend the costume competition throne!

Great in Gorgon Green Medusa was pretty much a starlet even back when. A ton of tales suggest she might have been gorgeous enough to make Aphrodite jealous and others depict her as a literal goddess whose archery could put Artemis to shame. But the thing that strikes us the most is the perfect way she could blend green and gold to create a fashion statement that stunned folks into still silence. (Oh, you thought she just petrified wandering victims? Funny how the myths make Medusa into a monster!)Design & Details Dazzle the crowds and make sure stories are told for generations to come by wearing this Medusa Wig for girls. This is a Made By Us wig that comfortably gives your kiddo long green and black synthetic hair. It is styled with a stark crimp to give a serpentine style.

Follow the Drinking Gourd“I had reasoned this out in my mind, there was one of two things I had a right to, liberty or death; if I could not have one, I would have the other.” -Harriet TubmanEveryone knows the name of Harriet Tubman. This brave African American woman escaped slavery and made 13 missions back into the South to rescue 70 people through the Underground Railroad. But did you know that during the American Civil War, Harriet also served as a nurse, an armed scout and a spy for the Union Army? She was the first woman to lead an armed expedition in the war, and guided the raid at Combahee Ferry that liberated more than 700 enslaved people. She also was an activist for women’s suffrage in her later years. Basically, this woman is a real-life superhero!We think that no one deserves more recognition and honor than Harriet Tubman, so we’re not surprised that you want to dress up like her for your next costume party.

Ready for the Tourney The duty of a squire is to ensure that their knight is always prepared for anything that they need. That means securing their armor when they are setting out, shining up their horse's shoes after a long day's work, and making sure that their weapons are always at the ready. Between all of the tournaments that a knight competes in and the occasional evil knight that they have to confront, it is critical that everything is ready to go. So, let us be your squire and get you ready to claim victory!Design & DetailsThe first step is making sure that you're ready to hoist this Medieval Lance. Our Made by Us team put this together in-house from molded plastic pieces that easily fit together into a 50" toy weapon. Painted to look like aged bronze, it is a perfect fit whether you're a knight in shining armor or you'd like to take a lesson from us and squire yourself up for a Renaissance Faire! Lancing a LotMake sure that you're ready for anything by equipping a true knight's weapon. Whether you're horseback or striding down the Rennaisance grounds, this Medieval Lance is just the thing to bring your look together. (Though maybe you should avoid any genuine jousting.)
Ax us no questions and we'll tell you no liesWe went back in time and polled a Viking village from the sixteenth century about their preferred battle weapons. Honestly, it didn't go very well because the people we elected to go in and take the poll were taken captive in an instant. The Viking warriors took their tablets, their sunglasses, and raincoats. The little warrior kids even snatched Anthony's pocket protector. So if an anthropologist discovers what looks like the first ancient Best Buy in Northern Norway, they can give us a call and hear the story. We did get an answer, by the way. Anthony ended up charming his way into the community by breaking out his early nineties rap routine. Lucky for our data, he had grown up as a beatboxing nerd. Once he had warmed them up the Viking warriors let him know that the two-handed ax is the only way to go when it comes to heading into battle. Product DetailsYou'll love the hand-made look of this ax. The handle is long and has a warm color. The ax head is silver with Nordic details stamped into the metallic finish. Big, Bad, and Battle-readyWhether you're dressing up for Halloween or you're heading out for LARPing, this ax will make you feel ready for the shield wall. It'll pair well with any of our Viking costumes. Plus, as all the other Viking's know, the two-handed ax is the only way to go!

Additionally, it will keep the wind off of you as you walk to the biggest party this year.

The Fame of the NileThe Ancient Egyptians were famous for many things. Many people remember them as being the people that built the pyramids. Others remember them for their burial practices and mummies. But what we really remember them for is their extravagance and attention to detail!Not only were the Ancient Egyptians great at creating detailed art pieces and sculptures, but they also put that same eye for detail and extravagance to their clothing choices.

(But you can become a knight a click of a button).2.Knights jousted at sixty miles per hour (you'd definitely want a helmet for that!).3.Full Plate Armour weighs about fifty pounds (ours is plastic, and weighs much less).

John F. Kennedy was the first United States President to boast of a popular image akin to a Rolling Stone. With his wife Jackie, he presided over an era that is now remembered fondly by Boomers, Gen X-ers, and (through history books) Millennials alike! If you want to recall those optimistic days—and imbue yourself with the unbridled confidence of a man who caught the affection of Marilyn Monroe while leading the free world—then you should probably wear this Deluxe Kennedy Adult Mask.

She of the Ointment JarBastet was known as an intensely fierce cat goddess that was in charge of defending the pharaoh. While her name translates to, "she of the ointment jar", she doesn't actually have anything to do with cold cream. This fierce lion goddess has been around for about four-thousand years. Bastet's symbols decorated both the pharaoh's chambers as well as the jewelry of mothers and women who wanted to be mother's. The idea was, like a house cat, she would be tender to her young and fierce to anyone who might threaten those under her care. She sounds like a goddess we wouldn't mind having around!Details & DesignMake sure Bastet has your back when you dress up in an Egyptian costume this Halloween. This plush black and gold cat is Made by Us meaning it has little details added by our in-house designers like the dignified striped ears and intelligent face. The body has a zipper on the back so you can carry your belongings without interrupting the ancient theme of your look. The pretty paws are circled with the fourteen-inch tail and the long chain slings over your shoulder for a comfortable look that you can carry around all nightAdaptable ArtifactsMake sure your belongings stay close at hand when you put them in the hands of the fierce goddess, Bastet. After all, when you're proudly walking into the room as Nefertiti or Cleopatra, you need a goddess to back up your authority. So throw the gold chain over your shoulder to let everyone know you're not "kitten" around!
Can Do Kind Of GalThe World War Two effort involved everyone. It wasn't just about the men fighting the battles, people back home needed to contribute. Old women took apart clothing to sew and knit bandages, mittens, and warm socks for the soldiers on the front. Children harvested milkweed for life jackets. Families saved fat drippings to make soap for the folks abroad. Stepping up was a matter of civic duty. So when it came to building ships, preparing artillery, and riveting together planes, women proudly stepped up to the plate! With so many of the young men fighting overseas, there was an overwhelming amount of work to be done at home but it wasn't long before the nation's men and women came together to proclaim, "We can do it!".Details & DesignReady to balance grit with glamour? Our Made by Us World War Two Icon costume is a fashionable interpretation of the inspirational posters that were popular during the height of the war effort. Our in-house designers put together a sleek jumpsuit made of denim fabric that can easily be worn with heels or boots. The jumpsuit buttons up the front and has functional side pockets at the hips as well as gusseted breast pockets for a fully functional look.
