Clothes Make the ManNo! Crowns make the man. This crown, in fact, makes you into a Viking King. Or Jarl. Or Chief. Or whatever the rest of your costume says about you. Hmm… ok, we admit that clothes influence the initial impression of the man somewhat, but nonetheless, we maintain that crowns are also very powerful in terms of first impressions. So there.Besides, who ever heard of someone taking control of vast armies without a crown? Well, we suppose the President of the United States doesn’t wear one… or any generals… Ok, we admit that that was another bad example, but nonetheless! We adamantly oppose the idea of allowing costumes to remain incomplete. It’s just not right.Hordes of HoardsOne of the best features of a crown is that it implies that you’re either fabulously wealthy or immensely powerful. Whichever it may be in reality, you will certainly be the target of many curious courtiers wondering whether you have hordes of terrifying pillagers, or hoards of tantalizing coin.I’m Viking that CrownHere’s another thing people will say! Get it?! Viking?? Liking?? Well, in our office poll at Halloweencostumes.com, 3 out of 100 people thought that this was a funny pun (yes, it was us).

Crusading is a hard job! The very word “crusade” sounds exhausting, and makes us think of many long sleepless nights and tons of walking. Ick, no thanks! We don't know about you, but the only way we'd go on any kind of crusade is if there were plenty of cool weapons to carry around on the journey.

If you think it's unlikely that your child is going to be a politician, think again. It's surprising how many of our children have those personality traits that we often see in our senators and congresspeople.

Even if that statement ends with him being pummeled with fake ears, it might clear up a few things for him. This toga with a red accent panel and golden laurel wreath will make a pretty great throwback photo for his first political campaign or that gyro restaurant he opens in ten years, either way.

Portia in The Merchant of Venice dresses up like a man, pretends to be a lawyer, and saves the life of her love during a dramatic court case.

AN AMERICAN SUPERHEROFolks periodically talk about superheroes that flaunt the red, white, and blue. Some of them have shields and are veritable perfect beings. Some are practically gods among men who fly around with alien superpowers or literal divine implements. All fight for justice and honor. But, long before those heroes were flying flag colors, there was another figure that rose up to inspire folks with the same honor, justice, and American way.Now, official history says that a businessman donated food to the army during the War of 1812. His uncle-like behavior and the U.S. stamps lead to Uncle Sam being the nickname of the country. Others say that the icon of the character really only became relevant in the later 1870s and early 1900s thanks to posters and political cartoons. But, we're pretty sure that these are all just parts of the secret identity. We suspect Uncle Sam can do way more than just point! DESIGN & DETAILSFascinate friends with the secret superpowers of the personification of the United States with this exclusive Uncle Sam Costume. Our own designers want you to love this high-quality look of America's favorite uncle. The full-length pants have an elastic waist and evenly spaced red and white stripes. The navy blue jacket has large lapels and coat tails as well as an off-white vest with brass buttons. The look wouldn't be complete without a large red bow tie and a white top hat with a royal blue, starred hat band. Just get that pointer finger prowess down pat and you'll be Uncle Sam! WHAT ARE YOUR POWERS?We know that Uncle Sam has the ability to inspire pride and foster community among Americans. But, what other powers does this enigmatic patriot have? Only you can discover the secrets of this fatherly figure and only with this Classic Uncle Sam Costume!

Plenty of powerful women have made their mark on history. Zenobia conquered Europe and even had the guts to stand up to the Roman Empire. Empress Wu Zetian expanded education and increased economic prosperity in China during her tenure. Amy Schumer proved that women are way better at gross-out humor than guys! Of course, few women hold the kind of reverence as the fiercely intelligent and classically beautiful Cleopatra.From an early age, all the way to her death, she truly broke the mold of what society thought a woman should be. She used her sharp wits to wrestle control of Egypt away from her brother. She snuck herself into the presence of Julius Caesar, cleverly hiding herself within a rug being delivered to him. She commanded her naval forces with deft precision during the Battle of Actium. She did all this with elegance and style. Even Shakespeare, a man born centuries after her untimely death, was enamored with her story. Now, you can step into her alluring shoes with this Cleopatra costume for women.Now, we can’t guarantee that any fancy English playwrights will craft a tale of your exploits while wearing this exclusive plus size Cleopatra costume, but it will make you feel like a regal figure ready to rule over her subjects!

Be it for re-enactments, plays, or just for raising awareness about the important events of history, a historical figure costume can help you do a lot of good by bringing history to life. When it comes to American history and the Civil Rights movement, there are few figures more important than Rosa Parks.

No Victorian gentleman would be caught dead without their hat! The type of hat they wore usually depended on where they lived, which in the United Kingdom and American East Coast was probably a bowler. It has since become the trademark symbol of a true dapper English gent, and, believe it or not, was also pretty popular in the Wild West. If you think about it, a cowboy hat is basically just a bigger bowler with a wider brim. Who says cowboys can't look classy? These days, bowlers may not be the big fashion accessories they once were, but they can still add some very dashing style to your ensemble. Next time you are dressing up for a fancy party, try this Black Velour Bowler Hat on for size. It would look very proper with a black suit and tie. Or, if you're feeling like experimenting with new styles, see if you can pull off this bowler hat look with your every day outfits!

Alrighty, folks, remember… We’re approaching that season where the veil between worlds thins and we can periodically see visitors from a few different places pop in to ask a few important questions. And, given what has happened a few times in the past, it is important to make sure we’re all on the same page. What do we say when some sort of odd gatekeeping extradimensional creature scowls at you and asks if you are a god? You know the answer, so there is no need to belabor that any further. But, just saying “Yes!” isn’t going to cut it anymore. They know that we know that, now, too! So, you have to know 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 Roman Goddess costume. You’ll be right at home with Jupiter and Apollo 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.

Ever been on a plane? Back before the days of in-flight movies and fasten seatbelt signs, courageous men and women like Amelia Earhart dedicated their lives to realizing the possibilities of powered flight.

It just takes people like you to remind everyone what the true spirit of exploration looks like.So suit up, give those propellers a spin, and get ready to break some records!

Southern charmWhile there was a lot wrong with the antebellum South, one thing they got right was the ladies’ beautiful fashions.

Then there was the detachable collar and all the accessories, like flowers for your hair and beautiful jewelry.
