It Was the Best of Times, It Was the Worst of Times...Civil war, or any kind of war, is never great. There's always bloodshed, heartbreak, sickness, shortages, and wounds - both physical and mental - that take time to heal. On the other hand, just like throughout the rest of human history, there are always good things to be found right alongside the bad. Physicians start to realize that handwashing before surgery is a good idea. The bridge to women's suffrage begins to be built. The steam engine blazes across the prairie, reuniting families and cutting down on weeks of travel in covered wagons. And best of all, women's fashions were absolutely stunning! Product DetailsYou'll fit right in during the War between the States thanks to this exclusive Plus Size Women's Civil War Dress Costume! The floor-length dress is made of light and comfortable polyester calico fabric and is printed all over with a delicate floral pattern. We did you a solid and put a zipper up the back instead of a million tiny buttons (it might be less historically accurate, but you'll thank us for the fact that you can fasten your dress yourself instead of having to get someone to do it for you.) Pink satin ribbon decorates the cuffs, hemline, and bodice, and a matching ribbon is sewn to the waist as a sash. The plastic cameo and decorative buttons give the dress some extra flair. An included petticoat goes under the whole thing to pouf out your skirts beautifully - no hoopskirt required! American BelleWhether you wear this costume for a pageant, reenactment or party, you'll look like America's sweetheart. Enjoy the benefits of throwback fashion without having to wear a corset to get the look!
An Eagle's VisionYou don't need a pilot's license to rock some pilot gear! The pilot has a lot of iconic accessories. The leather, fleece lined jacket is one, especially when it has fuzzy lapels, too. The tight leather piloting helmet is another great costume accessory that comes from history. Then, of course, there are the googles. Not all planes are huge 747s! Some little biplanes don't even have enclosed cockpits, so their pilots need to protect their vision. No matter what costume you are planning, we think you'll find some great uses for these Pink & Black Radioactive Aviator Goggles!Product DetailsThese goggles are not your standard brown and brass item. No, these have an extra stylish flair! The chrome around the eye pieces is a metallic pink, and even the lenses have a pink tint to them. The lining of the goggles is black and features some foam to keep the fit comfortable all night long. The strap that goes around the head is also adjustable for ideal comfort. Are you dressing as a pilot with unique style? Perhaps a spaceship pilot, even? Or are you looking to go steampunk? These goggles will work with all of those options, and more!

Extraordinary GodsGreek gods were kind of boring. Zeus just looked like an old guy with a scraggly white beard. Hermes was just a normal looking dude with some wings pasted on his feet. Cupid was a flying baby. That’s all fine and good, but what if you want to be an ancient god that truly looks extraordinary? Then you need to look at all the Egyptian gods from the ancient world. Talk about extraordinary! Sobek was a walking talking crocodile. Sekhmet was a female goddess who had the body of a woman and the face of a lioness. But that’s not even the best god of them all! That title goes to Anubis.Yes, Anubis was the god of being awesome! Wait, that’s not right. He was actually the god embalming and mummification. He also held the important job of guiding the souls into the afterlife and judging whether or not mortals were worthy of entering the realm of the dead. But, most importantly, he had the head of a jackal! Can you name any Greek gods that had the head of a jackal? Yeah, we didn’t think so!Product DetailsNow, you can look like the Egyptian god when you wear this plus size Anubis costume. It comes with a black top with a pair of matching black pants. The sash and waist belt help add an ancient Egyptian style to the look, while the collar adds the regal appearance of a pharaoh. Of course, we know why you’re here. You want to wear the awesome Anubis mask! It’s shaped like a jackal’s head and comes with a gold and black headpiece.Zeus is JealousOnce you have this Anubis costume on, you’ll feel anything but ordinary. Even Zeus will be jealous of your jackal-like face as he looks sadly at his boring lightning bolts.

Back in the day, taverns weren't just cozy bars with quaint names, they were rough and tumble places! And that's why every tavern needed a fair maiden. She'd be there not only to sweep up the filth-strewn straw and collect the silver for the drinks but to add an air of civility to the atmosphere. She'd encourage people to sing a distracting ditty before two burly knights could challenge one another to a duel over who got to sit on the stool with four legs. She'd usher the local well-loved outlaw out the back door just as the Sherrif sauntered in. This is all to say, the simple tavern maiden is the Meddeival diplomat!You'll look the part when you're wearing this sassy costume. Perfect for plays, Rennaissance fairs, and costume parties alike, this costume is the perfect balance of sweet and salty!

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. They always had the best outfits and jewelry! If you want to channel that amazing style into your next costume party, then you're going to love this King of Egypt Costume!Product DetailsForget King Tut! You're the new ruler and a mighty pyramid is being built right now in your honor. If the peasants don't recognize your power, they are obviously in 'da Nile.'

The triangular faux leather medallion is on a ribbon necklace and is set with a faux gem. This extravagant costume is sure to show those in your kingdom just how powerful you really are! Add a pair of sandals and a staff to give your costume the extra details it needs to stand out in a crowd!
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!

Let your classic look inspire Halloween empires far and wide this holiday; then, we recommend going home, unlacing these sandals, and slipping into a hot bath and soaking while you feed yourself plump, juicy grapes. Those Romans sure knew a few things about classic party looks and indulgent relaxation, eh?

You've got Spear ItIf you've ever fancied yourself as a fierce warrior, then chances are, you've been on the hunt for a good weapon. Daggers are nice, but they lack range (and reach is very important when facing foes at close range)! Axes are nice, but they're a little to cleave-y for some. Those can also be a little hard to wield for anyone whose skills with weapons aren't as strong as their fierce attitude. No, what you need is a weapon that's as ancient as humanity itself. You need a weapon with the reach to tackle anything that comes at you with their bare hands. You need a pointy stick! You need...the spear!Design & DetailsThis ancient looking spear brings is a toy weapon that harnesses the power of a spear with the look that's inspired by the weapons used by various warriors in time. The prop weapon is made of plastic, but the tip looks like it's made of bone, while the shaft looks like it's made out of wood.Safety FirstRunning around with a toy spear is a lot of fun, but you're no caveman warrior out on the prowl for Mastodons... make sure you play safe with this toy spear and not throw it at the unsuspecting.
If you've noticed your child has been spending copious amounts of time in the yard with a pickax, or if they've got a grey wispy beard coming in, and if you ask them how their day went and they always reply, "Get 'way me mine, Missy, I'm on da verge a GOLD, here!" Then we have something to tell you... yep, it's as you already suspected. You're raising an old-timey, 1840s prospector. But it's okay!

Yep, he'll soon learn that there's no gold in the backyard, but he'll sure look like he's ready to hit the mother lode in this exclusive costume.
...grey-eyed Athena slowed the night when night was most profound... - Homer, The OdysseyMost little girls want to be a princess. They want to be rescued by a handsome prince. They want the fairy tale. But that is all it is, a fairy tale. What they really want is a pretty dress, and a story with dragons, and heroic saviors.Now, don't get us wrong. We would take a pretty dress, and a story with dragons everyday of the week. That would be awesome. But sometimes we want a little more. So does your daughter. She doesn’t just want to be a pretty face. She wants to be a Goddess. A wise, and powerful goddess that doesn’t have to rely on anyone to save her. She wants to be intelligent, and strong. (That doesn't mean she can't also have a pretty dress at the same time.)She can be everything she wants to be. She is already brave, and smart. She fights for what she believes in. Now all she needs is this Child Athena Goddess Costume. It will make her feel like the goddess you already know she is. Yes, it will be a pretty dress, but she will also embody Athena, the Goddess of wisdom. The kind of goddess who doesn’t need a man to save her, because she is also the goddess of war. She might not have stories with dragons, but she will have stories where she defeats Titans. It is better to be wise, and fierce, than to just have a pretty dress.
But wherefore do not you a mightier wayMake war upon this bloody tyrant, Time?And fortify your self in your decayWith means more blessed than my barren rhyme?- William ShakespeareWe all want to be remembered for something. But that tyrant Time works constantly to erase the memory of our work and deeds.

It's Hero Time! "Hail, Caesar! We, about to die, salute thee!" Whoa, depressing much? Not really. Those gladiators were just covering their bases. Obviously they planned to defeat their enemies, impress the crowds, become a mighty hero and all that jazz, but...their opponents were usually huge tigers who hadn't been fed in a week and were starting to think that a nice, muscle-bound gladiator might be a tasty snack. Or a huge criminal who had been promised his freedom if he could bash in enough gladiator heads. So, just in case, the gladiators made sure to salute the throne like it was the last thing they'd ever do. Fortunately for you, you've got the right equipment and skills - you'll be a hero for sure!

Got Moxie?It takes a lot of moxie to run a saloon in the Wild West. If those old spaghetti western movies have taught us anything, it’s that you never know what kind of character is going to walk through the door to order a drink. Will it be dashing, heroic cowboy, or will it be some kind of villainous thug that needs to be taught a lesson? If you plan on owning the saloon, then you’d better know how to deal with both kinds of characters and you’d definitely better be dressed for success in the old west! After all, you can’t always count on the sheriff to solve your problems and you’re not the kind of girl who’s going to take any guff from rowdy cowboys!Yes, you need attitude and style if you want to keep all those rowdy cowboys in check.

Toga party!!! It's something they've shouted throughout history, from Ancient Rome (where every day was a toga party) to modern frat houses in the good old U.S. of A. Whatever time period you're into... and whether you're plotting the downfall of Julius Caesar, or just celebrating the end of the semester in classic college style... our Plus Size Men's Toga is a timeless way to dress for the occasion!The applications are pretty much limitless with this costume, and so are the personas that you can take on.

Made by us, the plus size men's toga is a costume for all seasons!

Stone Cold LegendMedusa gets a bad rap. Yes, her head of snakes turns men into stone with one look. But can we revisit why she kept on running into guys again? She wasn't hunting down innocent men in bookstores. Imagine her laughing after she pulled a "Made you look" and left a clutch of bookish granite statues behind. That's a pretty funny image, but it wasn't her style. She tried to stay far, far away from all humanity. Those Greek soldiers just couldn't leave a cursed demi-goddess alone when she created a challenge fit for a hero. So, yeah. There were casualties. But we would argue that if you go hunting for a head of snakes, you shouldn't go crying blaming a demi-goddess when you turn into a blob of rock!Design & DetailsWear your crown of snakes with pride when you slip on this Medusa headband. The snakes are adjustable with a shiny scale pattern on the surface. The gold eyes and forked tongues will make your hairdo look like a living legend. Want to fully transform into your Medusa form? Pair this snake headband with one of our elegant Greek or Roman goddess costumes to bring this ancient myth to life!
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? Ramses was married to the iconic queen, Nefertiti! Step out in ancient style when you don the gold splendor of this Egyptian look!
George Washington. One of the few presidents that everyone can recognize, able to even state that he was our first! We can imagine him with this fist on his chest, sailing across the Delaware River. We can imagine the tales we’ve heard… his wooden teeth and his proud proclamations that he couldn’t dare lie about cutting down the cherry tree. Few know the truth of where he got those wooden teeth!… Ok, so that was probably a lie, but it is hard living up to the high pedestal that the founding fathers left for us. Harder still to stand up to the first President! But, we can try by knowing as many obscure details about the man as possible. For example, he was born with no mortal father! Er, no, that was Merlin. George Washington was born with no middle name, though! He was also a rather exceptional dancer. As there weren’t any video games to play in the 18th century, we were left with few diversions and as a growing man in the social order, he was expected to attend many balls and parties. Finding that he enjoyed it so much, his skill quickly developed and so did his attraction to all the ladies at the dances, many of them attempting to dance at least twice with him!So, while there is a lot to live up to, it is generally accessible! And most of it can be done even without rotting out your teeth, first. You can start by helping your tyke climb into this George Washington costume. The blue polyester jacket has shining buttons in the front and the white cravat shirt just screams the right time period. Black vinyl boot tops make for a reliable look for the old world foot wear. Include a few other accessories, such as the iconic white wig or even the notorious cherry chopping axe!
The Fairest MaidenThere was a lot left to be desired living back in the Middle Ages. Most people's homes were just one big room with dirt floors and straw-stuffed mattresses for beds. The dinner menu didn't include much besides bread, stew and porridge. There was always the threat of an invasion from an enemy country or another 100-year war. If you wanted to visit anyone farther than 10 miles away, it took two months to finally get there. You might be accused of being a witch if you baked a cake that was too delicious. And, worst of all, there was no indoor plumbing.But all the inconviences of Medieval life were worth it for the amazing balls! If you think today's parties get wild, you haven't seen anything yet. Medieval balls had fire jugglers and choir groups and trained bears and indoor sporting events, plus about 100 pounds of food.

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.
The KingSo we all know of King Henry VIII, yes? The ruler of England during the 1500s who had six wives? Of course, we do.He was a man who loved food and drink. He was fond of the hunt, and (supposedly) pretty good-looking. Sure, he was educated and yes, he had a way with the ladies (we need not even mention his sumptuous colorful clothes), but let's not forget the most important part, shall we? He was King of England. We're talking power here. Power to execute people who got in his way, re-work England's constitution, and of course, start up a new church with himself as the head when he didn't agree with the old church. Henry sure knew how to get his way.Design & DetailsSo if you want to dress up as a powerful ruler, our King Henry VIII Costume is definitely the way to go. The doublet is made of tapestry fabric with gold braided trim on the body and sleeves. There's a bronze medallion on a 30" chain to hang around your noble neck. Just add some fancy boots and maybe a crown (also that white shirt which is sold separately) and you'll be one posh ruler. Just remember you aren't actually King Henry VIII. So don't try bossing people around like you're the king of England, because that probably won't go so well.
Deadly HandsomeFirst of all, don't panic. As a smart, persistent archaeologist, you've spent years and years researching your hunches and convincing the world that a forgotten pharaoh's tomb has yet to be discovered. Finally - finally! - you've gotten some attention and funding and are able to prove your theory. But wait! Just as you've brushed the last bit of desert sand from a hidden door bearing the name "Tutankhamun," a close friend runs panting to your side, shouting for you to stop. Don't you know, he asks, that all pharaohs' tombs are cursed? Well, yes. They are cursed. That's true. However, good old King Tut isn't the unleash-the-mummy's-fury kind of guy. He's lonely and bored, and eager for some well-deserved fame. In gratitude for uncovering his tomb, he's decided to confer on you a different kind of curse - the curse of being irresistably attractive to any woman you meet! Product DetailsWhile we may not be able to exactly replicate King Tut's exact curse (Dang it, man, we're costume sellers, not sorcerers!) we're confident that with the help of our exclusive Plus Size King Tut Costume for Men, your natural charisma will be just as good at wooing the ladies! The outfit includes a comfortable ivory tunic with an attached sheer blue cape that goes underneath a flattering belt complete with a hieroglyphic-printed drape. A regal collar clasps around your lordly shoulders. As a crowning touch, a gold and blue headdress protects your head from the hot equatorial sun. Now, who's up for a chariot race? Pharaoh's RewardAren't you glad you listened to us and opened the pharaoh's tomb? Ever since his relics were discovered, King Tut has granted you the gift of killer good looks. All that attention can be overwhelming at times, but we think you'll manage!
Have you ever wanted to be the President of the United States? It is a thought that many of us have had from time to time and one that, certainly, our parents have considered for us as they proclaim that we had the ability to become anything that we set our minds towards. The Presidency seems to always be that highest pinnacle, the crowning achievement. Then again, some can look at high public offices and wince a bit, pointing at a number that have left a number of us wanting and a few others aghast as we’re trying to figure how they managed any votes! And, even if you think you can handle the job, campaigning is such a pain in the rear.But, there are much easier ways to become the President without having to run around the whole country, talking yourself up and kissing every baby until you’ve managed to win enough votes—and we’re not talking about voter fraud, either! You can just transform yourself into a President that everyone already recognizes with this Ronald Reagan mask. Transmogrify with this full molded latex mask and get ready to yell “Reagan Smash!” as you topple your opponents as one of the most heavy hitting Presidents of them all. But, a warning: remember that Reagan masks usually have a different meaning when you go to banks, so we don’t recommend that.
Why be a princess, when you can be a queen? Guinevere is the not only some maiden in a tower, waiting for a handsome hero. She married King Arthur, the guy who put together the roundtable and founded Camelot. She spent a lot of time wandering through the forests of ancient England. We're not sure what we did there but we have a feeling she probably learned a few coin tricks from Merlin the wizard and learned to dive in cold water from the lady of the lake. Camelot was chock full of interesting characters, there was no reason the good ol' Gwen had to be bored in a tower!This elegant medieval-style gown will make little girls feel powerful while looking regal. The dress has a luxurious texture with a lovely light green color. The skirt goes down to the ankles as is proper for Medieval royalty and has pleats for twirl factor at balls. Little girls will love curtsying while wearing the hook and eye touch strip attached mesh cape because they'll feel like royalty. Plus, the sheer fabric billowing behind her will make for a truly splendid entrance. Whether she's dancing or stringing a bow, the cheer sleeves give her a ladylike flair, paired with the tiara the look will be perfectly complete. Whether this gown is for the Renaissance fair, a princess themed birthday party, or for Halloween, your little girl is sure to love it. Don't be surprised when she puts it on, again and again, revisiting the wonderful world of Camelot!
It seems like most people, when asked to imagine a knight in their mind, picture a strapping man in shining armor atop a horse. We'd like to change that, and we think this girl's warrior knight costume is a great start! She'll look no worse for wear when she goes out wearing this look, ready to fight a dragon, save a steward in distress, or defend a king from invading forces. No need to worry about the chainmail...it's actually a comfortable fabric even though it looks pretty intense. So, let your daughter or granddaughter know that she too can be a fearless warrior of old this Halloween with our warrior knight costume.
A Medieval Anti-HeroSome knights get all the glory. Turns out all you had to do to get your name in the books was show up at a big circular table and tell a bunch of jokes around a bunch of blokes who you aren't even sure really knew how to ride a horse! Meanwhile, you walk around the court in your pretty stylish armor and folks freak out just because you like the look of black on silver. "Oh, no! The Dark Knight comes!" they scream and you're like, "Yeah, I just finished saving your town from roving bandits! You're welcome!?"Let's be honest. If you're not in a set of shining silver armor and speaking thirty unintelligible syllables per sentence, most of the villagers won't give you the time of day. We're here to change that, though, by showing that even those edgy crusaders can save the day. Design & Details Show that not all knights shine in the same style when you gear up in our Dark Crusader costume. This is a Made By Us design that channels the edgy quality we love in anti-heroes and applies it to the bold knights of the past!

The full-length tabard is worn over top and provides the dark color you've quested for as well as a white cross on the chest. Cinch your look together with the double belts and pair of gauntlets and you're ready to tackle anything! (Though maybe a prop sword and shield wouldn't hurt!)The Dark KnightEvery legend has a story about the knight in shining armor saving the day. It is time for you to tell a story that is brand new when you step into this Dark Crusader costume and claim the tale for yourself! Don't forget your prop sword and shield because you don't want to end up like that other Black Knight of Camelot. (Let's go ahead and avoid even those flesh wounds, okay!?)

The prehistoric bone club was only wielded by the mightiest of Neanderthals; the ones who were strong enough to hunt a menacing dinosaur with a sturdy bone structure. If you're planning on being king of the cave and have your leopard tunic already, adding the mighty bone club to your ensemble is a must.During the dawn of man only the strong survived, and the famed dinosaur club was sure to assert your dominance. Plus, the bone is picked clean. An appetite like that can only come from someone who's worked for it! But know, that great power comes with great responsibility.So, what exactly is this bone from? It kind of looks like a shin bone from a poorly drawn Apatosaurus. Or maybe a femur from an oddly-shaped sabre tooth tiger? Not sure. Wherever you want to pretend you found it, works for us.

To the Tavern!Back in a more civilized era of bar-hopping... when bars weren't called "bars" but taverns and inns, and they were filled with the sounds of mirthful merry-making and slurred folk songs as opposed to deafening EDM beats... men dressed just like this fine fellow you see above.

A True Freedom FighterFreedom is a powerful thing. Many take it for granted, but Harriet Tubman cherished it. She cherished it so much, that she devoted her entire life to helping people to reclaim freedom that had been taken from them. She risked her life every day to help craft a better world, even when it meant putting her own safety in danger. She established the underground railroad, helped progress civil rights during a rough period in America's history, and she even campaigned for women's suffrage after the turn of the century.If your child wants to showcase the important legacy of Harriet Tubman, then she can wear this Kid's Harriet Tubman Costume, which will help her retell the woman's astounding tale.Design & DetailsThis historical costume for kids is a Made by Us design. That means our costume designers took great care in creating this look based on one of America's greatest heroes. The costume starts with a poplin blouse that features metallic buttons .

The next tie is made out of chiffon and the gauze shawl can be draped around your child's shoulders as desired. It all combines for a look that will have your child ready to step into the role of one of America's most important freedom fighters.
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? That kind of future would make for one snooze-fest of a movie! If the world is going to head to hell in a hand basket, you may as well look like a tough as nails kind of hero who eats deadly wasteland mutants for breakfast! That’s why if you plan on roleplaying as an apocalypse commando, you should be wearing this Wasteland Warrior costume.This men’s costume takes its inspiration from the many dystopian movie depictions of tough anti-hero types. It comes with a shirt that looks battle weathered, along with a belt. (You can never have enough belts when you’re wandering through the barren lands.) Of course, it also comes with glove that makes your arm look like a big old metal claw, because nothing says I survived nuclear fallout quite like a metal claw for a hand. Once you’ve gotten yourself all geared up in this rugged costume, you may just feel like doing battle with some bandits to assert your supremacy. After all, it’s survival of the fittest out there!
Notable NobilityWhen most people want to dress up like royalty, they probably automatically think of a prince or princess costume first. Usually, in romantic tales, you’re trying to win the heart of a prince or princess so you can become one yourself. However, we don’t always see the appeal in having to wait in line for the throne. Why not skip right to the front and become the monarch yourself? If you’re interested in holding a little more power than a princess, why not be a queen instead? And while dressing like fictional or historical royals can be fun, their outfits are often a little outdated. If you’re looking to flaunt your noble station with some modern style, we have just the thing!Design & DetailsThroughout her early life, Queen Elizabeth II was a style icon. In her later decades, that hasn’t changed, although her fashion sense has. While she was very fond of stylish dresses in years past, now she’s more known for her bold, bright skirt suits. And she almost always has a hat to match. We wanted to make a hat for the modern queen, so we chose to imitate one of her fuchsia choices. This soft, bright pink hat features red feathers on the front for a bold color combination. We hope you’ll feel like royalty in this daring hat!
Champion of ChampionsThe crowd is dead silent. The champion is about to emerge! Is that a flash of his metal helmet, or a glimpse of his crimson cape? Yes! Here he comes, charging into the arena. He is SO ready for today's battle, especially if it's between him and his squishy purple chew toy, or a tennis ball, or a piece of newspaper, or random sock he found on the floor... anything, really, except for the neighbor's cat (she beats him up). Today, the audience will rally around this pint-sized warrior whose spirit is far bigger than the Coliseum itself! Product DetailsDress your furry warrior in this epically hilarious Gladiator Costume for Dogs! The exclusive outfit slips on over your pup's front legs and fastens alont his or her back. The chest and back are made of foam-backed brown faux leather that's decorated with embroidered gold swirls, while the sleeves are made of metallic silver material. Matching silver-tone gauntlets with elastic edges slip over your dog's front legs. The red jersey-knit cape is sewn in place at the neckline and decorated with a gold-tone medallion. The foam-backed helmet has a red crest and stays in place with an elastic cord. Enter the ArenaHail, Caesar! This pup, about to look ridiculously cute in his mock armor, salutes you! By the end of the day, however, even a Roman emperor would be pledging allegiance and service to a warrior who is as sweet as this one. He has powers that the whole Roman Empire cannot withstand, including warm snuggles, little snuffly dog kisses, and pure enthusiasm for chasing anything that moves. Everyone who sees him will be conquered by him!
THE ALL-FATHER'S SHIELDWhen you're destined to become the new king of the clans but have quite a few betrayers to deal with before getting there, things aren't always going to go especially smoothly. There might be quite a bit of conflict and more than one axe coming your way.Fortunately, if you're Ragnar Lothbrok, Odin seems to have a pretty vested interest in your success and will always send protection down to keep you save until the very end. Of course, that doesn't mean you shouldn't show up prepared. DESIGN & DETAILSThis officially licensed Ragnar Lothbrok Red Shield from Vikings is a faithfully recreated replica, Made by Us to ensure that your exploits as a warrior go well! This is a large, plastic, round shield that is painted red and black to look as authentic as the shields wielded in the show. It's the perfect way to accessorize any warrior's look, especially for any Viking raids you may have planned.

Posiedon PowerDo you hate being ignored? Wouldn't it be nice to have the power to cause earthquakes whenever anyone pretended not to hear when you suggest that everyone go grab some tacos? That would teach people to ignore your carne asada cravings.Though they are old, powerful, and wise, the gods of Olympus are known for being petty. We can understand how Poseidon (or Neptune if you're Roman) would feel a little left out. Though his life was interesting, riding around the ocean floor on his chariot pulled by a team of underwater lobster-like horses called hippocampus (what's the plural of hippocampus, hippocampi?) he must have been quite lonely at times. It's said that even though he had a gorgeous palace at the bottom of the sea made of coral and gems he spent more time at Mount Olympus. Just goes to show that all the ocean-voyaging chariots and coral castles in the world can't replace family. It's easy to get ready for your Mount Olympus debut these days. You don't even have to achieve twelve labors like Hercules had to.The wonders of the internet can now endow you with all the trappings you need to become like the great Poseidon. In the dramatic golden cape and seafoam green pants, all the ships of the sea will be at your mercy. You'll look regal in the golden arm gauntlets, belt, and the goldfish scale shirt. All you need now is your golden trident to take this ensemble from dramatic to earthshaking. This Halloween those mortals won't dare ignore you. If they say no to tacos this time go ahead and make the earthquake.
There are a few basic pieces that every man should have in his wardrobe. No matter what the career path he is taking, a crisp white shirt is a versatile purchase that no closet should be without. The look is clean, classic, and enduring. In fact, real men have been rocking a version of the white button-down for almost 1,000 years, from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance and beyond. Now that's a classic!Whether you are trying to be the world's first pirate comedian or spend you weekends storming area castles with your fellow Musketeers, the billowy sleeves of this shirt will complement your physique and help you look your best in any sword fight. The plunging neckline is appealing to both serving wenches and queen regents alike.
How many times have you gone for a hike into the woods and heard a few too many bird calls or other animal sounds and wondered for just a split second if you might have wandered into the amazing Sherwood Forest? Whether we’re talking about the prince of thieves who bounds in tights with his other incanting merry men, the dark and brooding archer who faces a seemingly endless line of corruption thanks to the usurping prince and his mean-spirited sheriff, or even the high-spirited and fox-faced animated hero to the peasants, we’re always fortunate to know that Robin of Locksley isn’t far away! And, it is worth noting that Robin told us long ago what a fox says: he makes bird calls!But, as fascinating and adventurous as Robin might be, it is his love who has our hearts! Maid Marion is a lass that we’d expect should be remaining comfortable behind stone walls awaiting the arrival of her uncle and rightful King Richard to return. But, no! She’s just as ready to hop from high windows onto the horseback and gallop her way into the forest in order to both see her loving bandit and make sure that Prince John is brought down!Join the adventure and win the hearts of the rich and poor alike this year with this Enchanting Maid Marion costume. A grand blend of polyester, crushed velvet, satin, and knit mesh, you’ll be the virtual queen in this sky blue dress with a fancy panel of brocade print.

Enchant your bandit back home and get John thrown into jail with this enchanting look… and maybe steal a few extra hearts along the way.
Far AfieldHave you ever looked out on a wide horizon and wished you could know what it would have been like to be a pioneer woman? If your average pioneer women got a glimpse in our houses these days, she would be blown over by the luxury we live within our day-to-day. There are no lamps to trim, we don't have to score our clothes by hand, when we want to go above and beyond to bake some bread, all we have to do is turn on the stove. She would even be delighted by our solid walls and rooves, as many pioneer women wound up living in sod houses, literal bricks of dirt are great at keeping the warmth in and the wind out but they still had to deal with dirt and bugs falling all over the house... gross. Maybe it's time we invited our inner pioneer woman to take a break in our modern lives for a bit. Design & DetailsThis one-piece dress was designed by our in-house creative team for a lovely, easy way to slip into a historic look. The zip-up dress has a long calico blue skirt and a band around the waist. The blouse has a high neck with a small peter pan collar and full sleeves that are cuffed at the wrist. A cameo accents the neck for that little bit of detail that you can expect from a Made by Us costume!Happy Trails!Here's the thing, a typical pioneer woman might find our modern lives convenient but that doesn't mean we can't find her lifestyle beautiful. Standing in the endless prairie grasslands in skirts and a bonnet will always be a gorgeous image. Top this costume off with a bonnet and a petticoat and you'll be ready to start your very own wagon train!

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.

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.
