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.
Time to Grovel Greetings, puny mortal. Welcome to the temple of the goddess. You have found her in a good mood, and she will look with favor upon your trembling devotion. It will go even better for you if you have remembered to bring a small gift to show your loyalty to her beautiful self. A word of advice: Live goats and sheep are so two milleniums ago. Nowadays, the goddess encourages cold drinks and maybe some cool shoes. Just a thought. Product DetailsAccept the tributes of your adoring devotees when you wear this exclusive Dark Goddess Costume Dress for Women! The long black dress zips up the back and is made of slightly stretchy jersey knit material. Its cold-shoulder-style bodice embellished with a gold-edged V neckline and an empire waistband outlined with an appliqued metallic gold ribbon. The sleeves' side puffs are made of black chiffon. The skirt features two flirty thigh-high slits that will let you show off your favorite pair of gladiator sandals. The included headband is accented with metallic braid and fabric leaves. Patron of Beauty and Brunch This goddess dress is celestially lovely, and perfect for wearing if you don't want to tie yourself to a specific mythology. It certainly adapts itself well to both Athena's dignified wisdom, Hecate's spooky magic, and Aphrodite's sultry fashion sense (which is pretty incredible when you think about it), but you could also declare yourself to be an entirely new goddess. Someone still has to claim the role of taco deity, for instance. The title of Goddess of Having Perfectly Smooth Hair Even When It's Really Humid and Hot Out title is also up for grabs.
Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.Your son has just gotten the part of Benjamin Franklin in his school play. You knew they were doing a play, and you knew he was going to be trying out, but he kept telling you that he was going to get the part of James Franklin, Ben's brother. But then he got the lead. And you were proud. Then he told you that the school won't be providing the costume.That was two months ago. He has been practicing his lines. Memorizing everything he can for proper immersion into the character. He has even started talking like Franklin. "It's called method acting. Duh." That's what he said to you when you asked about the extra research. Then you remember that you need to get his costume. Now it is the 11th hour, the play is just two weeks away. You need to find that costume, and you need to find it now.Luckily for you, we have this Child Benjamin Franklin Costume. It comes with the grey twill jack that Franklin is always depicted wearing, and an attached vest, just a lighter shade of grey with decorative buttons. And when your son asks where the electric clippers are, you know that you will also need to buy the Child Benjamin Franklin Wig to ensure your son doesn't shave the top of his head, then somehow figure out a way to dye the rest of it grey. Maybe he will pick up the old adage about early to bed, early to rise. Probably not though.

BITESIZE ANCIENT HISTORYWe can hear you, already. "Not another history lesson!?" Well, just wait! Don't run off. This is going to be a quick and easy one that we're sure you're going to love! (And, you can't run, anyway. We've latched the doors and set up all sorts of ingenious traps to keep you around.) See, the thing about history is that there's just so much of it. It gets too huge to handle. That's why we're going to break up the history of all time into little, easy-to-handle chunks!There's something about little versions of things that are somehow super cute, too. Take the real-life "boy king" of Egypt. Tutankhamun was only nine when he took over an entire dynasty and even managed to keep the title until he grew up! It was pretty commonplace that folks would worship the Pharaohs after they were gone, but ancient Egyptians were loving King Tut while he was alive. Obviously, that's because they couldn't contain the adorable "awwws!" DESIGN & DETAILSBring the legend to life and make history once again when you transform your tot into Tut with this exclusive Egyptian Pharaoh Costume. Our team of designers moonlighted as archeologists for months to put together this high-quality look of dark black and gleaming gold. The short-sleeve tunic falls beyond the knee and matches the inner lining of the gold and black-striped headpiece. Shiny black fabric makes up the collar, cuffs, and the belt, though it is the hieroglyphics printed on the belt that really sell the look! THE YOUNGEST PHARAOH YET!King Tut made ancient fame for having the nicest pyramid to date and being the youngest kiddo to rule. But, time for the crown to pass to an even younger generation with your toddler! This Pharaoh Costume is bound to get way more attention than some old 18th Dynasty fuddy-duddy!
This is kind of embarrassing, but we first knew Leonardo da Vinci as that one painter guy that one of the Ninja Turtles was named after (hey, we're no history experts here). We did a little research and it turns out that he's one pretty cool dude. He painted some awesome pieces, like the Mona Lisa and he even sketched up some plans for a helicopter. Of course, technology back then wasn't like it is today, so most people probably just thought he had his head in the clouds. Oh, and did we mention that he had some wild hair and a beard? Now, you can get his Renaissance-man style with ease!This Da Vinci Wig brings you the look of the Italian artist (not the Ninja Turtle). The wig features some synthetic silvery locks that will have you looking like a genius from the Renaissance, so make sure to have that paint brush ready!
Do you ever put down your history book and just role your eyes. All those books talk about is the remarkable achievements of men. While Marcus Aurelius and Augustus have plenty of words of wisdom attributed to them they most likely had someone write their speeches for them like the politicians of today. The woman of the era might not have had their words written on parchment but we know they were the ones holding the chariot reigns. We're sure glad women are allowed to speak in the senate these days, it wasn't allowed in Rome except once, when a lady named Hortensia made a speech to lower taxes for Rome's richest women. Imagine if we taxed women and men differently these days! While men were taking baths, having toga parties, and watching people wrestle, the ladies were raising the future emperors, holding the purse strings, and whispering into the ears of politicians to make their vision of the country they wanted to live in a reality. For people that weren't allowed to speak publicly, vote, or even own their last names these ladies ruled pretty hard. Do you want to make your way up the social ladder of Roman society? No? We get it, it's a real pain and pretty fatal actually, definitely not worth it in today's society. Well, whether you're dressing up for Halloween or showing Bacchus's buddies who's boss at that toga party, this ensemble will give you that regal look you're going for. The floor length off-white skirt and black sparkly top would make any Roman noble proud. With the show-stopping purple cape attached to golden wrist cuffs you'll have the authority to put that golden-sandaled foot down, no more will the ladies of the toga party be taxed for those oily men wrestling in the back yard! Who invited those guys anyway?

We bet it would be quite a surprise, but once you see how divine she looks in this Greek Goddess Costume, it'll suddenly make perfect sense!Back in Ancient Greece, there was a whole host of gods and goddesses that were prayed to that represented pretty much every aspect of life. If you were a farmer, you could pray to Demeter, Goddess of agriculture, for hopes of a good harvest. Or, if you were about to go on a long expedition, you might want to pray to Artemis, Goddess of the wilderness, so that your party might have good luck while travelling through forests and hills.

Floral FlairSome might say that the ruler of an ancient land needs to put forward a face of stern strength. There may be any number of expectations for a young queen, especially from neighboring monarchs. But that's the thing about every moment after a royal coronation.

Kids always think that they are invulnerable and that can make for a pretty intimidating life for those of us who are obliged to keep them from suffering any lasting harm. Now, many of us are alright with the idea that they’ll head out and scuff a knee or even get a bit of a black lip in the midst of their play. It builds up a bit of an immune system and also helps to teach them some practical lessons about personal safety while also letting them actually live out their lives. Still, there are limits to what we’re willing to let them expose themselves towards!So, when we noticed that there was a rather boisterous knight hanging around the neighborhood, offering to duel a bunch of the residents in order to gain passage down the sidewalk, alley, or once even to get inside the bagel shoppe, we had a few concerns. Fortunately, the knight wasn’t too much of a struggle to defeat… excepting that he just kept coming back and seemed to suffer no pause from any damage that he suffered. It immediately made us all realize that this guy was going to teach our tykes that they were truly immortal… even if it meant losing a couple limbs! Flesh wound, our butts!So, we are getting ahead of this fiasco by giving you the opportunity to educate your tykes on the amazing Black Knight yourselves. This costume is a complete and near historic armor set including a foam fronted shirt with a silver mesh collar and sleeves to imitate chain mail and a foam helmet that fastens by Hook and Loop fastener and covers the whole head. The foam armaments continue, including gauntlets, boot tops, knee guards, and the face grille can optionally cover the face or be left open. A bright red cape finishes off the look, though you can accessorize with a weapon and shield for the full package. With all this armor, your tyke will be truly protected, though we still recommend avoiding blocking the paths of certain kings.
IT'S HARD TO BE THE BARDYou've got to have a certain kind of ego to be a writer. You know, to sit back and think, 'Yeah, people need to know what I have to say!'

If you think that all Child Tan Pants are pretty much interchangeable, you're sorely mistaken. Unless by interchangeable you mean that a pair of brown-ish breeches makes a great addition to any number of costumes. If what you really think is that our exclusive Child Tan Pants are no better than beige leggings from any haberdasher or five and dime, you're in for a big surprise!Huh. To our surprise, there aren't a lot of haberdashers or five and dimes left. Technically, even though a fresh pair of our Child Tan Pants would boast finer fit and finish, their musty old pants might still hold some value among collectors of vintage legwear. We learn something new every day!Well, our Child Tan Pants are tailored to wearers of modern-day child-size pants, and we hope that means you (or your child-sized companions). Because otherwise we have no idea why we feel the need to prattle on about this superior set of slacks!
Longhouse LifestyleIt's dinner time in the longhouse. The longhouse is lit with a central fire. There are long fur-lined benches along the sides of the thick turf walls. Lamps fueled with cod liver oil and cottongrass also add extra light to the family dinner. The family circles around eating a thick stew of carrots, potatoes, and wild game, dipping bread into the steaming bowl while sipping on buttermilk or mead. When you dress your little one in this fur-accented costume, you can be sure he'll look right at home sipping from a bowl in a long-house. Who knows what other Viking skills he'll pick up. Viking boys were expected to learn to take care of themselves from an early age. Learning to start fires, take care of animals, and handle boats and farm animals was an important part of their schooling. But most of all, they'd have to learn to work together. Because someday, these Viking kids would have to learn to join the shield wall!Product DetailsEven the toughest berserker will have to respect your kiddo when he's wearing this ensemble! The look includes a Nordic print trimmed tunic that's attached to a sharp light blue cloak. When finished off with the matching faux fur trimmed boot toppers, he'll look like a timeless tough guy, ready to set sail.Teamwork makes Schemes WorkIs your kiddo ready to get in touch with his warrior spirit? Or maybe he simply wants to sample dried fish. Whatever his reasons for dressing in costume, you can customize this look with the accessories found in our catalog. From axes to helmets, you've got plenty of options. And of course, being a Viking is all about teamwork. Find sizes for the whole family to build your friendly neighborhood shield wall.
Hoist the Mainsail! Captaining your very own ship would be such a dream job? Why? Because you'd get to boss everybody around, from the first mate to the cabin boys. "Swab the decks!" you'd call. "Man the capstan! Weigh anchor! Belay the mizzenmast!" You wouldn't even have to know what any of those words meant. As long as they sound sufficiently nautical, you can just have fun yelling whatever you think of. Product DetailsLook brave and dashing in your exclusive Toddler Colonial Captain Costume! The soft, unisex jumpsuit fastens up the back and is designed to look like four distinct articles of clothing. The top features a blue jacket-style layer that reveals a red "waistcoat" insert beneath a ruffly white collar. The bottoms are a soft beige and tuck neatly into the black boot covers. Top it off with tricorn hat! Beyond the Horizon The Colonial era was an exciting time to be a sea captain! You'd load up your vessel with interesting passengers and all kinds of exotic goods one day, and then after a sometimes dangerous voyage, you'd dock at a port all the way across the ocean to deliver your goods and explore. You might even get to fight a pirate ship or two along the way! The only problem is, with a journey that long, fresh food tends to spoil quickly. No need to worry: That just means that you have to stock your galley with all of the prepackaged, long-lasting snack foods your parents don't like you to eat.
Wash Your HandsWhen Florence Nightingale came on the medical scene during the Crimean War, more soldiers were passing away due to sickness than injury. Once soldiers entered the medical bay they were exposed to some seriously awful bugs. When the sharp-eyed, diplomatic Nightingale saw the conditions of the medical tents she wrote to the government to tell them to save the soldiers through hygiene. Under pressure, the government went to work improving ventilation and sewage treatment.In the meantime, Florence implemented handwashing rules and trained nurses in keeping sanitary conditions. Under her watchful eye and lantern light, the rate of survival in the hospitals went from fifty-one percent to an amazing ninety-eight percent. It's no wonder that, more than a hundred years later, we still remember her making her nightly rounds, lantern raised.Design & DetailsIf your child is a history buff, she's sure to appreciate this Florence Nightingale costume, designed by our in-house creative team. The black dress and apron are separate, letting your child dress up in either without the other. The apron slips over the head and ties at the back. The dress zips up the back and has a red cross band around one arm. Topped off with a ruffled cap, this costume would make the proper Florence Nightingale proud!For the WinWhile most well to do young ladies were expected to stay at home, Florence had a calling that she couldn't ignore. Her expectations for hygiene, patient care, and compassion elevated the skill of nursing and saved people all over the world! In fact, nurses still the Nightingale Pledge to this day! This costume can be completed with a lantern to represent Nightingale on her nightly routes, checking on patients as everyone else slept. Perfect for school projects, plays, and even an alternative Halloween costume, this look is a great way to celebrate an iconic hero of medicine!

We have so many questions about how princesses lived in the Medieval era. How could they stand wearing those gorgeous gowns without taking even one selfie? How did they keep those billowing sleeves from dragging through their morning porridge? How often did they actually interact with unicorns, once a week, monthly, biannually? Life as a royal may not have been the perfect life that we've come to imagine from fairy tales but those regal girls certainly knew how to dress. If you see your daughter snap to attention when anyone mentions castles, she will love this luxurious teal gown. Straight out of Avalon, this graceful ensemble would blend into the King Arthur tales perfectly. Once in this gown, she's going to want her first unicorn ride but it'll be up to you to let her know that those mystical horses haven't been spotted since the 1200s. Sure, she might be disappointed but she'll forget all about it once she sees the photos you've been snapping of her. Regal details pepper this velvety gown from head to toe. The metallic edging of the full, hanging sleeves is echoed in the floral design along the neckline and the brocade ribbon belt. Any courtiers that saw a princess in a gown this gorgeous would want her crowned, pronto. Whether your family is attending a Renaissance festival or your girl wants to dress up as Camelot's first lady, Guinevere, for Halloween she's bound to feel that rush of nobility when she feels the lush fabric of her sleeves. Turns out, it's easy to have to best of both worlds. She can dress like a princess but she doesn't have to give up modern conveniences like electricity and plumbing. Now that she's learned that you're just going to have to get used to called her "my liege".
The Brave SuffragetteSuffragettes bravely fought for the right to vote around the world. International organizations like the International Woman Suffrage Alliance helped foster the movement for voting rights and equal civil rights anywhere where they weren't already law. The movement in the United Kingdom was particularly notable for getting suffrage passed through 2 laws in 1918 and 1928. A hallmark of the Victorian era, you may have thought the age of the suffragette has long passed with women's voting rights being now established. But we're thinking it's a great time to bring them back! There's plenty more to fight for, so long as you're willing to show your tenacity. So, just suit yourself up in this Plus Size English Suffragette Costume and get ready to revive the suffragette legacy!Product DetailsThis Suffragette Costume Plus Size starts with a one-piece dress that's styled to look like a skirt and ruffled blouse, which would have been the attire during the Victorian era when the women's suffrage movement was at its peak. The dress fits with fasteners in the back and comes with decorative faux pearls on the sleeve cuffs. The cameo attaches to the collar to add an authentic look to the outfit and the whole thing is finished off with a sash. The sash fits around your shoulder and reads, "Votes for Women". The sign is not included, so you'll have to craft your own if you want the full look as we have it pictured!Your Vote MattersRaise awareness for election day or celebrate when your candidate wins when you go in this Women's English Suffragette Costume. And be sure to shop our entire selection of historical themed costumes and accessories for everything you need to complete your look, and to take care of looks for everyone who may be going in costume with you!
A GODDESS OF MYSTERYAncient Egypt offers us a ton of strange history that might never be fully unpacked. With so many people, so wide-spread throughout the territory, it is understandable that they couldn't always quite agree on everything. So, when you've got a feline deity that seems capable of so much at once, it makes sense that they couldn't quite decide what she was the goddess of or even what to call her! Bast, Bastet, Ubaste... or even adored by the Greek as Ailuros!? From there, folks have to wonder if she's the lioness goddess of the hunt, a protector deity watching over the household, a goddess of the sun or moon, or the lady who keeps away disease with her mighty perfumes while helping Anubis watch over the land of the dead. That's a pretty big portfolio for deific deeds! It's no wonder that cats were such holy creatures when you've got a mighty feline goddess who has so many responsibilities.DESIGN & DETAILSAfter learning everything there is to know about the ever-beloved and changing Egyptian deity, our in-house designers were finally freed to show off the glory with this exclusive Bastet Goddess Costume. This luxurious look includes a black, open-shouldered bodysuit with gleaming golden sleeve cuffs and a sleeveless top with a matching gold foam collar and bustled fabric down the bust. Printed hieroglyphic symbols decorate the golden front of the skirt and the black and gold cat-ear headpiece stays set in place with elastic. No godly look is complete without a sheer mesh cape that falls to your knees from the golden collar. Stand in rulership of your domain as the most beloved feline deity of all times. THE BLESSING OF THE KITTIESIt should be no wonder why Bastet remains an adored goddess in an age where cats have taken over the Internet. Keep the divine light shining down while all bend knee to your glorious rule when you slip into this Bastet Costume and rise as a fierce lioness warrior!
Who at some point hasn’t admired those renaissance men? Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Shakespeare, and Christopher (Kit) Marlowe? Their work is incorporated into our lives all the time.

You are sure to make a splash at a Shakespearean play or Halloween party when you wear this Renaissance Collar and Cuff Set. We suggest growing a curly mustache and beard to round out the look!
Fierce in FursThese days, when you show up in a fur coat, you're telling the world that you live a charmed life. Wearing a fur coat lets everyone know that you know your way around a high-end department store and you've probably spent some time on a yacht.That didn't used to be the case. For instance, if a Viking showed up in furs, everyone knew that the Viking had resently won a fight with a Norwegian wolf. Honestly, we think that's a lot more awesome than swiping a card at a cash register. Your Viking character will look ferocious in this fur trimmed look. Sure, maybe you haven't spent much time on a yacht but you'll look right at home aboard a longship as soon as you slip into this Viking Valhalla costume. How's that for a status symbol?Design & DetailsThis exclusive Made By Us women's Viking costume is made to help you get into fierce character. The costume includes a blue tunic trimmed with fur around the hem of the wrap-style skirt. The realistic looking fur is cut to look like it came straight out of the wilds, not a factory!

Complete with fur-trimmed gauntlets, this Viking costume is ready to rough it as soon as it arrives at your door. Just Axeing!Wait! Don't check out quite yet. Customize this costume to create your perfect Viking look. Choose from helmets, shields, and even furry leg warmers to bring your character to life!
Mixed MotivationsIf you had lived in Europe in the wide range of years from 1095 to 1492, you probably would have known a man or two who had joined in a crusading movement. It was a popular choice for many reasons. For one, if you were a serf, you legally belonged to your lord. The pope promised that serfs that joined in the fight would be given freedom on their return. Soldiers also joined to see the world, get land, gain wealth, and have their sins wiped clean. Like all other ventures, every individual had their own reasons for joining. Now that the crusades have been over for more than 600 years, the little crusader in your life can choose their very own mission. Are they crusading to fight for freedom from an early curfew? Or perhaps they're campaigning for a trip to an indoor water park this winter. Like the actual crusades, every soldier is in it for a different reason. Whatever your child's motivations might be, the mission is sure to be more successful if they're dressed for success!Design & DetailsYour child will feel like they're ready for anything when they slip into this Made by Us crusader costume. The costume has a tunic at the base and with silver sequins that make up a chain mail look and texture. Your child is sure to be excited about the "shining armor" look. A red cross tabard is draped over the tunic and the hood is draped over the neck, looking awesome whether it's worn up around the head or down. The look is topped off with details like the draping belt and faux leather gloves. A Sharp LookKid's will be jumping with excitement when they know this costume is coming in the mail. Make sure they're ready to wear this costume as soon as it's out of the package by adding on a sword and shield and pairing it with leggings and boots. We'd say this costume will conquer this Halloween with ease!

A New Emperor Takes the Reigns"Cry havok, and let slip the dogs of war!"Never say Julius Caesar didn't have a flair for the dramatic (yes yes, we know it was Shakespeare who actually wrote those words but just go with us). Now the Roman empire is in your hands, and your subjects shall render unto Caesar that which belongs to Caesar. Which, in short, means that people should give you your stuff back.

When you put it all together, you'll be ready to turn your home into the royal palace of Rome!
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.
TIME TO SEE THOSE TOESIf you're like most, when you get home after a long day (at the office, field, or quarry), the first thing you do is rip those danged shoes off and sigh in the blissful anguish of releasing your feet into the world. But, what's next after recovering!? You want to stay barefoot but what about the chill of linoleum or the flat stone of your earthen home? What about making a mark on your social circles? What about that nasty question of whether you can even see your toes?FUN DETAILSWell, we've got the perfect solution to all those uncertainties with these wondrous Men's Cavemen Feet! These flesh-colored slippers provide the best of both worlds of comfort and perfectly defined toenails. Perhaps you won't be wiggling them so much as admiring!BEDROCK BEAUTIESIt's tough enough wandering around town with all the residents of your community giving you the stink eye because of your bared feet. But, who can tolerate the types of shoes that you're so often expected to adhere to? Talk about lack of comfort! Talk about lack of human dignity! Take one look at these shining tootsies and you'll swear off "real shoes" until the next era.
Breaking the RulesSociety shuns rule-breakers. They lock them up or run them out of town. Sometimes though, that's exactly what the world needs. A little bit of rule breaking. Just take a look at the tale of Robin Hood.The law labeled him an outlaw. The Sheriff of Nottingham wanted nothing more than to lock up poor Robin Hood and throw away the key. And if it were up to Prince John, Robin and his whole lot of Merry Men would be banished from the kingdom forever. The ordinary citizens of the kingdom saw it a little different though. They saw him as a hero! Robin saw the laws that hurting his friends and family, so he decided to valiantly rebel against the kingdom! He took his bow in hand and began doing a little bit of "wealth redistribution" in his land. That's one case where being a rule breaker was a good thing. If your child has a penchant for breaking the rules, then maybe it's time to focus that trait into something heroic!Design & DetailsYou can transform your child into the legendary bandit from the tales when you get this Robin Hood costume for kids! This exclusive outfit is inspired by Renaissance clothing and comes with a light green tunic, perfect for blending in while traversing Sherwood Forest. The hood even helps hide his identity from the evil Sheriff of Nottingham! The costume also comes with a pouch for carrying gold, and a quiver that's perfect for storing extra arrows. Finally, the fingerless gloves and boot covers pull the whole look together!Robin and his Merry MenWhen you dress your child in this Robin Hood costume, your child may feel the need to steal from the rich and give to the poor! You might even feel the need to dress up as one of his Merry men to get in on the fun!
Northern NightmareThey strike when least expected, sailing silently in their longboats straight up to the very doorstep of an unwitting settlement. Their battle cries chill the blood and freeze the heart as they plunder their way through the land and leave when they've seized as much treasure as they could find. Sometimes the treasure is a rival chieftan's gold. Sometimes it was some sheep. Pillaging makes you work up an appetite. Product DetailsWin fame and glory when you wear your exclusive Victorious Viking Costume for Boys! You'll need a fearsome yet comfortable outfit for wearing on raids, so pull on the short-sleeved brown pullover tunic with its V-shaped placket and printed "stitchwork" on the sleeves and hem. The foam-backed belt fastens around your waist and is trimmed with faux fur: A good choice for sailing through cold Northern winds. The foam-backed wrist cuffs are also embellished with faux fur, as is the short brown cape. The pants' elastic waistband is comfy and won't restrict your movements when you're carrying booty back to your ship. Don't forget to grab your favorite prop weapon and a shield! Perfect Plunder The Northern seas are a wild and dangerous place, but they are no match for your conquering spirit! Steer your longboat with confidence as you pick out the perfect place to pillage - err, we mean trick-or-treat. You were wise to select a region where the locals seem unusually generous. Instead of having to terrify them into submission, they are all unusually excited to just... give you plunder? This year's record-breaking haul of chocolate bars and candy will be sung by your bards for centuries to come!
Hey, folks. So, not to especially freak anyone out, but we need a little help. We’re just going to be blunt and admit that we messed up a little so we can get right to the solution without wasting any time. Of course, it isn’t like we tried to make a mistake. As if anyone sits back and thinks, ‘Hmm, I wonder what we could do today that would just really put a wrench in the cogs of humanity?’ and then, upon coming up with an idea, decides to go through with that idea. That’s not how things go here in the office. That said, when someone really wants a realistic dragon costume, we do everything we can to make it as real as possible!So, yes. There are a few dragons loose, flying around the world, and likely snatching up every golden coin available—yes, even the ones that are actually chocolate coins just covered in realistic-looking golden foil. In fact, probably especially those ones. And, you’ve heard the song. When things get really dangerous, whether wind, chill, and rain or storm, flood, and fire, we need a hero who can handle those dragons before we’re all out of our delicious chocolate coins! And, everyone knows that the best dragon slayers of our times came straight out of Camelot!So, it is time to don your mighty coat of arms and take to your duty, Noble Knight, and we are happy to be your squire. This interlock knit mesh tunic has the look of real silver chain mail on the sleeves and a maroon poplin fabric torso tabard with your printed coat of arms. Faux suede makes up your collar and wrist cuffs for the additionally armored look and an archaic style black faux leather belt keeps the tunic neatly cinched. Faux suede boot tops turn even standard shoes into plated greaves. All you need afterwards is your mighty blade, a shield, and possibly a horse, and you’ll be taming dragons (and winning the gratitude of maidens and princes alike) before the night is done.
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.
A Sherwood ThingRobin Hood and her merry ladies knew a thing or two about glamping. In fact, many folks said that their little nook of Sherwood forest was the coziest corner of Nottingham. While stealing from the rich, Robin often swiped woven tapestries and shaggy blankets to make the secret dens they wove from sticks much warmer in the damp English weather.Every night the Merry Ladies would get together around a fire to feast on wild rabbit stew and swap stories about their noble heists and their charitable pursuits and every once in awhile they'd get Maid Marian to stop by and play her fiddle so they all could dance under the mossy oak trees. Want to get a taste of the outlaw life? No need to build a den of sticks and stolen tapestries in the woods, simply slip on this Robin Hood Costume and you'll feel ready to take on a character with rich history!Details & DesignThis unique Robin Hood costume balances historical touches and modern fun. The off-shoulder blouse ties at the neck and has elastic around the wide neckline. A brown vest with rivets and a square-pattern hem brings Medieval fashions into living color. This costume is completed with green pants, a quiver belt, faux leather gauntlets, and a deep green velvet cape. Rock this with your favorite pair of moccasins or a pair of boots and you'll be ready for action.Take a BowWhile this costume looks like it's ready for some action as soon as it arrives at your door, when you top off this Robin Hood outfit with an archery-contest ready bow, you'll have a legendary look. If you really want to bring the Sherwood vibe to life, get your friends to tag along and become your merry guys and gals!
The World at Your FingertipsPharaoh might be the best career in the world—just think about it. Wouldn’t it be great if everyone in your life would adhere to your every beck and call? People would have to bow down to your mighty rule, no matter how crazy your demands were! You could order your subjects to do your laundry, wash your dishes or have them dance around in a giant tub of gelatin dessert, all as you laugh with tyrannical glee! Or, you would take the path of benevolence and use your power to give all of your followers free donuts—when you’re the Pharaoh, you get to do whatever you want.Of course, you’re probably not lucky enough to be a real Pharaoh. You kind of need to be born into that position… and you would have had to been alive over 2,000 years ago. Don’t worry though! Through the power of costume, you can still role play as a mighty Egyptian king with this All Powerful Pharaoh costume.Design & DetailsThis plus size costume brings you the regal look of ancient pharaohs with simple pieces that are quite comfortable to wear. The main garment is black and comes with many accessories to help emphasize your kingly style. The neckpiece, headpiece, and armbands all have bright gold colors, and the belt even has hieroglyphics printed along them. Once you’re all garbed up in this high-quality costume, you’ll be ready to take command of your kingdom!You might not wield the full power of the ancient Pharaohs, so you might not be able to convince your friends to erect an obelisk or a pyramid in your honor, but at least you’ll look the part in this outfit.
Hitch your wagons!Did you grow up reading the “Little House on the Prairie” books and dreaming about living in your very own sod house? Maybe you wistfully imagined milking cows before dawn and churning cream for 20 minutes straight to make your own butter. Maybe you longed to have the chance to spend the whole day doing laundry at the nearby river, or live in an underground home with a dirt floor and plenty of critters crawling underfoot.Or maybe your dreams ranged farther west, toward that great American journey: the Oregon Trail. Do you bitterly regret missing the romance of walking fifteen miles a day alongside your covered wagon, rubbing axle grease on your lips to prevent blisters and taking Epsom salts to try to cure your excruciating dysentery? Do you feel like nothing in modern day can compare to the thrill of collecting buffalo chips for the evening fire? Do you long for a daily food menu that’s primarily cornmeal and lard? Truly, you were born in the wrong century!Product detailsWe can’t transport you to the glorious 1840s, but we can at least help you feel like you’re there with this Women's Westward Pioneer Costume. The exclusive costume is 100 percent polyester, which we admit wasn’t invented until about 100 years after the Oregon Trail period, but it still looks authentic, and honestly, it’s a lot more comfortable. The long-sleeved shirt features a collar, buttons down the front and trim along the front and sleeve cuffs, as well as a zipper on the back for easy wear. The floor-length brown skirt also has a zipper in the back for the same reason.Westward, ho!With this costume, all you’ll need is a covered wagon, six oxen and about 50 pounds of lard, and you’ll be all set for your very own Oregon Trail adventure!
