15th Century SurpriseMedieval times used to be pretty wild. People believed in witches, unicorns, and sea monsters that lingered on the unknown borders of the map. Rampant disease made sure that the kings in power were always changing, causing all sorts of wars and skirmishes. Still, in all this chaos, people were shocked when a young woman in France demanded an army to defend the French throne. Somehow, she was taken seriously. She led victorious battle after battle while she was still a teenager. We cringe to think about what we were up to at 18. Not breaking society's standards and taking hundreds of lives into our hands, that's for certain!Costume DetailsThis lightweight version of Joan of Arc's armor will have your kiddo feeling tough even though it's made of lightweight fabric. The costume features sleeves and pants with a chainmail printed pattern that won't weigh a kid down. A long blue tunic is layered over top with a Fleur de Lis printed on the front. A wide silver collar is just stiff enough to make your kiddo look ready for whatever battle comes her way! That's Oui, not WeeYour kid's capacity to amaze you is always taken to new heights. Who knows what she could accomplish if she was a medieval peasant called to the front. Luckily, that's not going to happen these days. But your child might still surprise you once she's in her Joan of Arc armor. Gone is the mac and cheese-loving scribble fiend you once knew. Now, your little one is a powerhouse! Complete this look with a sword and shield set and a few smudges of charcoal on her face for a dirty, battle-worn look to make sure that everyone else knows that your Joan of Arc is ready to take on the world!

Pride & PeppinessJane Austen knew how to write a character. Everyone in her books was memorable. They all could turn a phrase to lift the reader or make the reader broil in anger for the sake of the heroine. She did all of this while keeping her characters (both the good and the cad) in the refined class that we all came to love. From two hundred years ago, she can still transport us to places that no longer exist. All it takes is a turn of the page and we're walking into the halls of Mr. Darcy's estate while dressed in petticoats and white gloves. Turn to a different page and we're trapped on the moors with a twisted ankle while Mr. Willoughby swoops down and saves us from our struggle. Does your daughter delight in a time of restraint and etiquette? She can pen her own romances when she's dressed in this gorgeous Jane Austen costume!Design & DetailsThis Made by Us costume has all the refined taste any Jane Austen fan would expect. The lightweight white dress has puffed sleeves and a beautifully ruffled collar. The empire waist is belted with a pink ribbon to make the skirt extra billowy when walking through the green fields of northern England. A dark blue jacket with gorgeous puffed sleeves is layered over top for when it gets cloudy but your child still wants to keep writing under the garden trellis. The whole look is topped with a bonnet to keep Jane extra elegant. One for the BooksWhether your literary kid is dressing up for a play, school event, or even Halloween, she's sure to love the elegant design of this costume. Now, all your child needs to do is learn to use a quill pen and learn to pen perfectly restrained dialogue. Shouldn't be hard, right?

A Different Kind of Spin ClassWhen Jenny showed up for Colonial Spin Class, she was shocked. Where were the bikes? Why was everyone wearing full-length dresses instead of yoga pants? While Jenny didn't get the full-body workout she came for, she was blown away by how fun it was to sit at a spinning wheel and make yarn while catching up on pre-revolutionary gossip. What was Goody Tailor thinking wearing scarlet to Sunday services? The Johnsons purchased yet another ox and haven't even sold their wheat crop yet. Captain Emanuel Downing was planning on coming to the country dance to the excitement of every unmarried young lady in town! At the end of the two-hour class, Jenny had decided that she was definitely going to return. Next time, though, she was going to be dressed for the occasion!Design & DetailsThis historic costume was designed by our in house creative team. Since it's Made By Us, it's been designed with longevity in mind, making it a great pick for theaters, schools, and history enthusiasts who want to dress up again and again. The lovely pink floor-length gown has buttons down the front of the bodice, a modest square neckline trimmed in ruffles, and a crisp off-white apron attached to the waistline. The three-quarter sleeves bring a little of the 1700s to life while the bonnet and shawl will make you ready to stroll into the town square, or spinning class, whatever suits you best!Cottage CoreJenny knows what to expect when she shows up to Colonial Spin Class now and while she wears a full-length dress in the morning while she's at the wheel, she's convinced her historical-enthusiast friends to join her later in the day for a little open-air yoga in the meadow. Talk about the best of both worlds!
Raising a PharaohIt must be hard to raise a king. King Tut became the ruler of Egypt at the tender age of 9. Do you think his advisors had to scold him to eat his vegetables? Do you think they had to tell him to clean up his room? What if King Tut ever got mad at his advisors? He could just lock them up in jail!

On second thought, you might want to remain in control of your home… you never know if your child will try to recruit you when they attempt to have a pyramid built in their honor!
Good old Romulus, founder of Rome, very well could have been the first person to popularize the toga. Back then it was common for both men and women to wear them, and they were quite simple and served basic utility purposes. But as the years passed, the toga became a symbol of male citizenship for the Romans, and became a much more formal type of clothing. They also got much more expensive and complicated from its humble beginnings.These days it's hard to think about the toga apart from college frat boys and parties. But, believe it or not, these draped clothes were quite formal and demonstrated success and distinction for many Romans. If your child needs to get a toga of his own, perhaps for a historical demonstration or a play at school, or if he's just looking for something fun to dress up as for Halloween, check out our Boys Toga.This toga is 100% polyester, with the sash sewn to the shoulder with a gold ring accent. The belt is a gold rope, and the toga is easy to put on with a comfortable fit and easy to put on and off style. Don't forget to add accessories to complete this costume, like a pair of sandals (the ones in the picture aren't included with the costume) or an ancient scroll for your child to read from!
This is Sparta!King Leonidas has quite a problem. Greece's greatest enemies, the Persians, are trying to invade! He's going to need to gather up as many of his countrymen as possible to protect his beloved homeland. He knows he'll need the help of the mighty Spartan warriors, but will they be able to crawl over to the battlefield in time to join into the fray? Or will they over-sleep during naptime and miss the whole thing?Leonidas calls his men to sound the alarm and shake the battle rattles, alerting everyone to the critical situation. He wishes he could send out messengers with information about what's going on, but he hasn't learned to write yet, and he's sure the rest of the troops haven't learned to read yet, anyway. This is a terrible predicament! As the Persian forces draw nearer, Leonidas knows time is running out, and he has no idea how to rally his army to victory or even escape himself. With the rest of his options exhausted, there's only one thing left for him to do: He throws himself onto the ground and starts crying as loudly as he can, hoping that his mommy will come fast and fix everything.Product DetailsMake your baby battle-ready with this adorable Infant Silly Spartan Costume.

Be the God of the SeaBeing the ruler of the oceans and seas seems like a pretty decent gig. After all, being the god who controls the seas means that you get to spend a ton of time relaxing on the beach. Just think about that!

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.

This year's record-breaking haul of chocolate bars and candy will be sung by your bards for centuries to come!
Country MaidenEveryone always wants to dress up as a Renaissance princess. But here's the thing. When it comes to beauty and elegance, dressing up as someone from the royal court in the 1600s isn't where it's at. Towns and courts in the Renaissance era were so very dirty. In fact, if noblewomen wanted to go anywhere they wore shoes called "chopines". These were extremely tall platform shoes that helped keep hemlines free from all the animal muck and sewer mud in the streets. Unlike modern high heels, these shoes required women to be accompanied by friends on each side just to keep a lady upright. No, when it comes to dressing up in the Renaissance era, you want to be a fresh country lass. No lead-based makeup, platform heels, or suffocating layers of skirts to hold you back from all that 1600s style fun!Design & DetailsThis Celtic Renaissance dress was designed by our in-house creative team. The dress has a gorgeous off-the-shoulder chemise in clean white. The forest green overdress fastens up the front with adjustable laces for a corset look that's quite comfortable. The uniquely cut dress is trimmed with silver and green Celtic trim at the waist for a look that hints at the romance of the highlands!Meeting At the FaireAre you headed to the Ren Faire this year? Dreaming of dancing around a maypole and biting into a whole turkey leg with abandon? If you want to live out your historical fantasies, make sure you're not encumbered by pounds of velvet skirt and stiff corset boning. This Renaissance costume will make sure you feel comfortable while also looking stunning in front of castle backdrops. Whether you're heading to the Renaissance Faire or Scottish festival, taking part in a play, or dressing up for Halloween, we're sure that you'll love slipping into this Made by Us historical costume!

Mother of RomeWhen Venus gave birth to Aeneus’ ancestor, she never thought her actions would have so much impact on the world at large! From that one line came many descendants, including all those who founded the city of Rome on its seven hills.As if that weren’t enough, Aeneus’ travels led him through wonderful Carthage, where he met, loved, and then spurned the queen, Dido, whose subsequent suicide at his departure created an everlasting enmity between those two peoples. That was no doubt not what the goddess of love had intended!Product DetailsIf you are looking for a costume that will make you look like the goddess you are, then you are in the right place.

We like to follow the theory that the Victorian Industrial Revolution somehow split off into two different worlds. There's the world that turned into what we live in and there is one that turns into the world of steampunk. We dream of going there because who wouldn't want to become an adventurer in that gear freak world of a science fiction old fashion? Every once in a while we decide to dress up like we were there (usually on Wednesdays). Now we'd like to expand the tradition. Add an elegant touch to your Halloween costume with this Women's Cameo Steampunk Set complete with a choker adorned with white lace and earrings. This will be sure to identify you immediately as true steampunk aristocracy. If you feel like going back in time instead of forward, this set would also be great for a traditional costume of the time period that inspires the mystical world of whimsy.
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! You're going to get through this because our child prospector costume is going to help the gold rush fever get through their system much faster than it would naturally. 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.
Colonial Etiquette 101Before regular baths, indoor lighting, and other modern niceties were available, etiquette was much more strict. Maybe this was to make people feel fancy, even while stepping through who-knows-what in the streets and picking bugs out of their wigs. For instance, children were instructed to never approach their parents without bowing first. And even then, they had to address good ol' mom and dad as sir or madam!George Washington transcribed party fouls such as, "lift not one eyebrow higher than the other" and "it is bad manners to cross your legs." Honestly, we're not sure if he'd be cool with our conversation style. Still, all judgment aside, it's good to know how to act while wearing this Colonial Costume. And if someone catches you raising an eyebrow, perhaps they'll let you get away with it due to your dapper duds!Design & DetailsThis high-quality Made By Us faux suede ensemble will have you thanking your lucky stars for modern conveniences such as mirrors and cameras because it would be a shame if you couldn't take in your colonial splendor! The brown vest panels are attached to the jacket so that getting dressed is a snap. Add your own white collared shirt and tie the satin neck scarf as you see fit! Topped off with a tricorn hat, your historic costume will look spiffy in 1700's style as soon as it's out of the bag!Revving for RevolutionOnce you're in this costume, you'll almost feel ready to take up your quill and pen a strongly worded letter to King George! Just add a pair of knee-high socks that you can tuck into your pantaloons, a pair of pilgrim shoes, and maybe even a wig if you're feeling fancy. Once you're suited up, who knows what will happen! Just be sure and take a few rules from George Washington's notes and keep those legs uncrossed!
Prehistoric PartyWe’ve come a long way from the prehistoric era when the first cave people roamed the wilds. They were busy hunting Wooley mammoths, learning to cook with fire, and painting beautiful depictions of, well, their hunts in the Lascaux caves of France. In just a slight contrast, we bide our time by curating our social media feeds and ordering burritos to our living room via an app. I suppose we can’t look down on our primitive ancestors for being so primitive, though. We all ought to celebrate the ones who figured the basics out so we could live so lavishly. Naturally, we suggest a prehistoric costume. If you really identified with BamBam while watching the Flintstones, this Bold Cavewoman Costume for Women is probably your fit!Design & DetailsMade By Us in our own design studios, our in-house team crafted this intricate costume with care in each and every stitch. The result is this fun new style ensemble including the dress, belt, and armband. The dress is all polyester faux fur and faux suede with a jagged hemline and back zipper, with faux rawhide shoulder straps. Accessories like the club are sold separately, so make sure you check those out. We definitely recommend them to complete your look!Keep it Cave CoolSo if you’re up for some clubbing… you know, the kind with less EDM and more blunt force, grab that accessory, learn to swing it, and rock this Bold Cavewoman Costume. It will be a good respite from the usual luxuries. There are only so many burritos you can order directly to your living room, so many new movies you can stream to your tablet computer, so many surprise boxes of makeup you can order pre-curated to your front door before you need to get in touch with your wild side.
One Thing's For SerpentWhen you want a powerful look for Halloween, one thing is for certain: you don't have to travel to the underworld to pull off your transformation.

You could break out your hair straightener, ramp up your hair mousse, or call on all the bobby pins in your arsenal but that cowlick in the back of your head is still going to stick up straight. In the end, you just have to ride the bad hair day wave or figure out a way to work a hat into your ensemble.

So you think you're interested in joining the knight's watch? Well, this isn't a game, boy! Here are a few things you should know:1.Becoming a knight typically takes about fourteen years, seven years as a page and seven as a squire. (But you can become a knight a click of a button).2.Knights jousted at sixty miles per hour (you'd definitely want a helmet for that!).3.Full Plate Armour weighs about fifty pounds (ours is plastic, and weighs much less). Is that enough of a pitch for ya? We have to think that this helmet accessory is the perfect way to complete your medieval costume. Just remember: it's a prop. So you don't actually want to go hopping into battle. But for all other costume purposes? Yup, this knight helmet hat is the ticket!
GET THOSE GEARS GOINGYou know when you've got a super good idea and it's just working in your head? You can pretty much feel the brain cranking and grinding to bring that genius-level spark into a whole fiery production. Can practically feel the steam pouring from your ears and your eyes lighting up with excitement, yeah? That's the inspiration of Steampunk calling to you. That perfect coupling of old style and new age innovation. It is time!DESIGN & DETAILSThis Steampunk Top Hat is the perfect thing to represent your creative flair. First, it was Made By Us, designed by our own Vintage Department of Futuristic Tech. It's more a low-top hat than a full-on crazy top hat, but at 5.5" tall, it gives you plenty of other styles you can wear it with. Really, you're here for the differently shaped brass gears riveted into the hat, though. All we need next is to get them actually mechanically active! KNOCKED INTO A COCKED HAT?We'll be honest. We had to look up that phrase. It means something has been destroyed and rendered useless. A rather funny way of saying "broken," but what else can you expect of something as classy as Steampunk. Anyway, with the high-quality of this Top Hat, you can be sure it'll stay non-cocked through the steam age!
Ras to Ruins"Oh great Pharaoh, thy cartouche shall live through the ages and immortalize thy name among the peoples of Egypt for all time. O thou great Pharaoh, God-King, Ra as man, whose influence brings the Nile's nourishing floods anew each year, whose will is law, by whose word we live and die, amidst whose glory we are blessed to spend each day, and to whom we give all supplication and due honor. If it is found by thy will suitable, if perchance thine immaculate spirit should acquiesce, if indeed it were possible and if thou has the time, wouldst thou come to mine Halloween party? That would be dope."While that’s not the weirdest invite we’ve ever seen, we are still surprised that your host decided your costume for you. Still, you’ve come to the right place! Here you go, Pharaoh, your costume awaits!Product DetailsThis Adult Egyptian Tunic Costume is fitting for the main god of Egypt. The stylish foam headband with its molded vinyl cobra can be worn with or without the accompanying striped veil, as the Pharaoh desires. The belt has fabric ties and the most opulent faux leather and brocade ribbon draping on the front. The large rectangular crushed velvet can be draped in many ways across the broad shoulders of the Lord of the Nile, or the less-broad shoulders of the Lady of the Nile. The Pullover tunic has cap sleeves to give Pharaoh that extra oomph that he needs to have confidence in the morning.Oddly Shaped TombsGiant squares? Nahh. How about intricately carved likenesses of each individual? Boring. You’ve been through all the shapes, and the time to decide is now, while you're 30. That’ll give your builders enough time to put the finishing touches on your tomb before you die in 30 more years. But what shape is best? As you stab yourself in roof of your mouth with a tortilla chip, it comes to you in a flash! A giant triangle! Perfection.
If a man was a Viking, he was tough by definition. Violence was normal, he was most comfortable when forming a shield wall with his tribe. For Vikings, the world was a brutal place. The icy winds of the sea would have been whistling in the ears of the Norsemen since they were babes in the arms of their equally tough mothers. They were handling battle axes as soon as they could tottle around. With that harsh environment, it's no wonder they grew all the hair they could to protect them from the multitude of unforgiving elements, from the cold weather of the Norwegian seaside to the flying debris of the battlefield. You can't transform yourself into a Viking warrior if you ignore the epic long hair and beards of these northerners. The red locks of this wig are typical of people with Norse heritage. All you need now is one of those horned helmets and you're ready for battle. Now, shout it out with your fellow Norsemen, "Shield Wall!"
What is a girl’s best friend, asks a number of songs? Well, the quick answer tends to be the shimmer and glimmer of diamonds. They represent beauty, internal brilliance, and the sort of longevity and lasting power that falls right within the idea of eternity. But, ultimately, they are only gemstones. Diamonds might be pretty impressive, but they lack the real vivid color and life that hits what a gal really needs. How can they possibly compare when put toe-to-toe with the idea of the ultimate authority of divine mandated rule!?That’s the question posed to the most famously beautiful ruler of all time, Cleopatra. And what is the biggest problem with leading a massive country full of people just drooling over your magnanimous power? Well, looking amazing certainly isn’t the problem. If anything, such power and beauty only brings about the constant threat of betrayal and almost certain early death by assassination—often including truly unusual ways of bringing it about. We admit that dealing with murder plots isn’t a great aspect of the job description, but it at least makes for an eternal story for your subjects and enthusiasts hundreds of years later.So, it is now time to step up and claim your throne and make both Antony and Caesar roil with jealousy. Do so with this Nile Queen Cleopatra costume. This lovely black, polyester sheath dress is form fitting and has astounding contrast thanks to its aqua edging, gold and aqua armbands with long draping cloth that sings of the Nile, itself, and a sequined headband with lovely dangling beads and a bright faux gemstone in its center. The golden knit apron belt has a mystical scarab design in the same aqua tone that completes the balanced look. Complete your whole ensemble with a cobra staff or jeweled rings. (… Or an antidote phial, just in case some of your ‘allies’ bring in some serpents of their own!)
Sometimes kids have no idea what they want to be when they grow up. Some kids say they want to be a doctor, and some say they want to be a lawyer, and some of the smart kids even say they want to be an ice cream tester.

Become the respectable man who ended the American Civil War and restored our Union with this Adult Abe Lincoln Costume! While we can't provide the height of the beloved president (he was six foot four inches!), this costume will give you the classic look with a stovepipe hat, long jacket, and shirt front. Whether for Halloween or Presidents' Day, this Abe Lincoln costume will give you the nineteenth-century look you've been waiting for.

You've already bought her the best covered wagon money could buy: a 19th-century Prairie schooner, the vehicle of choice for folks traveling west. And you bought her a first-rate team of six oxen to pull it. (You'd never trust those cantankerous mules, like some folks!) You've loaded her up with a good 150 pounds of flour, 30 pounds of biscuits, 100 pounds of bacon, and, of course, 50 pounds of lard.Then there's her plow and her shovel, her Dutch oven (which is very important, since she's not old enough to use a real oven by herself yet), her rake, her hoe, her saw, her mallet, and all the tools she'll need to repair her wagon wheels or axle.

Imagine you are hard at work running your busy Renaissance-era tavern, pouring ale and slinging stew for weary travelers and local regulars. Do you picture yourself wearing an elegant gown, with pretty slippers and streamers in your hair? Or, would you rather be decked out in this Tavern Maiden Costume, and show everyone how to really have a good time?If you're like us, most of our knowledge of Renaissance times comes from faires and movies based on Shakespeare plays. These probably aren't the most historically accurate sources, but they sure paint a fun scene, and one of the staples of this scene is the humble tavern. Taverns seem to be where all the good stuff happened back then. It's where you went for food, drink, warmth, news, and to look for work. And in many taverns, there was a tough talking gal running the show. She kept things from getting too rowdy, and also made sure everyone had a drink in their hand and a room for the night. Well, if they had coin to spare, that is.This Renaissance-inspired costume is a fun way to step into the part of a tavern keeper, or many other roles from "ye olde times." The earthy and warm colored dress and corset would look right at home in an old village full of hardworking people who know how to let their hair down. Just slip on a pair of sturdy, sassy boots, and you'll be all ready to handle tonight's crowd at your imaginary tavern from earlier, or to let your imagination run wild at the Renaissance Festival!
We all know that it is good to be king. At least, we’ve all heard that it s good to be king. Very few of us have actually had the opportunity to stand up and rule over a kingdom. While we have lacked those opportunities, it also means that we haven’t felt the burden upon our brow of that rulership. One has to stop and question how daunting a task it must be to know that your every word has unshakable weight upon your subjects. … For most kings, anyway. There have certainly been few that didn’t quite have the respect of all their supposed worshipers.But, we’re sure that such troubles won’t be yours during your long life as monarch! That’s why we’ve invested everything into your royal Gold King Crown. Made of glimmering and shining (faux) gold, the crown has comfortable inner padding. We can’t have our mandated ruler experiencing discomfort upon thy lofty brow! Decorated with brilliant (faux) gems and diamonds, this crown certainly is worth all the coin in ten thousand (imaginary) kingdoms. Hail and long live our monarch!
Power, seduction, deceit, and gold eyeshadow. This is the legend left behind by the timeless queen, Cleopatra. She ruled Egypt and influenced Rome. She took down anyone that got too jealous of her natural born power. People still talk of her dramatic love affairs and her awesome eyeliner game, and we should. Hollywood drama has nothing on this Memphis powerhouse.What would happen if Cleopatra were alive today? We don’t think she’d be super impressed with the rich and powerful people of the world. Sure, they didn’t have cars back in the day but is that really an upgrade. We’ve given up fancy horses and golden chariots, not to mention golden boats floating down the Nile. Have you ever seen those Egyptian horses with fancy feathered headdresses? Yeah, a Mercedes Benz can’t beat that, at least when it comes to making an entrance. Cleopatra was really good at making an entrance. Have you ever been introduced to an official Roman dignitary after rolling out of a carpet? If you have you’ve beaten us and everyone we know in the interesting person game.If you’re ready to get in touch with your all-powerful ruler side than this Cleopatra costume can help you out. The dress is perfect for those hot nights on the Nile with light weight floor-length golden fabric. The collar is stately with black and gold stripes. No one is going to doubt your authority with this black panel and gold hieroglyphics and a crystal belt over top that matches the crystal and gold headpiece. You’re sure to make that legendary entrance with the golden cuffed sheer cape. If you want to roll yourself in a carpet and get yourself delivered to the party, that would be epic. Just remember to stay hydrated and pack some snacks!
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).
Back in ye old colonial days, you didn’t have to worry about pesky things like getting a hair cut every three weeks, or the onset of male pattern baldness, or even having to wash those long locks on a regular basis! All you had to do was get yourself a fine wig, some powder, and boom: You were looking right and tight!And while there's not much that we would bring back from the colonial days, being able to rock a wig ranks right up there. And now here's your chance: This Mens Colonial Wig will add a touch of historical accuracy to any colonial or revolutionary costume. Sporting a short ponytail in the back that's tied off with a black ribbon, this wig is so slick you'll be tempted to trade in your baseball hat and just slip this on your head on those bad hair days (we don't recommend that, though...those days are over bro, and also, you'll look insane)
Making a MarkThink about it. With nothing more than a few bolts of cloth, some thread, and some nimble fingers, Betsy Ross created one of the most iconic symbols in all of American history. It's had a few updates since the very first flag was crafted in 1776, but the basic design remains mostly unchanged since then. After all, why mess with perfection, right? She was one of the first women to leave their mark in America and we think that's pretty cool! It's why we decided to make a costume based on the iconic figure!Our costume designers look at classic paintings of Betsy Ross to draw inspiration for this historical costume for women, and they did a great job of creating a look that captures her sense of ingenuity!Design & DetailsThis Betsy Ross Costume for women will help you carry on the legacy of one of America's most amazing women! It starts with a blue floral dress that has a white skirt on the front portion. The dress has lace on the sleeves to help give it an authentic look. The costume also comes with a white shawl that fits around your shoulders and ties in front. The included choker is blue to match the dress and fits around your neck. Finally, the white hat brings the whole look together by giving you a colonial style that looks like it came straight from the American Revolution!Perfect for July 4th!If you love history, then you might want to recreate the iconic moment when Betsy created the first U.S. flag! Of course, this costume also works great if you plan on celebrating the 4th of July, or as an outfit for the plays and pageants! Just be sure to pair this costume up with a classic American Flag (not included) to finish the look.
Beauty of the NileWho was the real power in the ancient world? Julius Caeser or Marc Antony? Please. They were men. They had some successful campaigns, but so did another highly acclaimed ruler of their time. Plus, this particular ruler had a huge advantage: Personal style. Dazzling the masses and impressing your subjects is an important part of keeping the throne. And let's be honest: A sweeping gown is much more impressive than a boring old toga. Product DetailsBegin your glittering reign when you wear your exclusive Plus Size Queen Cleopatra Costume for Women! The sleeveless dress has a bodice made of shimmery gold faux linen. Center ruching accents the flattering V neckline and continues down the hips as the bodice forms a gently draped overskirt that parts in the middle to reveal the long metallic knit underskirt. A foam-backed belt with a front drape secures around your waist, and a semi-sheer metallic knit cape fastens around your shoulders via a gold faux leather collar. Crown your costume with the golden faux leather headband! Your Majesty Is Cleopatra #goals? Definitely! It's true that she did defeat her own brother in battle and pull some underhanded tricks, but that's just "making tough decisions." She's a smart and strategic general in her own right whose reign is not to be underestimated. The only thing she wasn't exactly great about is keeping her distance from snakes. Make sure you don't get too close to anyone wearing a serpent outfit this Halloween!
History TudorWhen did Henry the 8th reign? What about Elizabeth the 1st? It can be hard to remember the cold, hard facts of history. But the dates and the names of the important battles aren't what really matters in history.

A Modern MonarchSome styles last an age. Others keep coming around even after a century. That's clearly the case of the enigmatic Cleopatra. Much about the last active ruler of Ancient Egypt has fallen to myth, from the clever ploys she calculated to the ultimate manner of her demise. But one of the things that is talked about the most is how she was a woman that knew how to intimidate simply with a glance.That was probably mostly from the power she commanded and the quick wit she had mastered, but many of the stories also speak to her sense of style. The elegant garments. The perfect pose. And let's never forget the shining head of hair she sported, too! A couple thousand years later, we're still captivated and now it is your turn!Design & Details Command all the B.C. beauty you'd like with this exclusive Queen Cleopatra Black Wig.

Rich black synthetic hair styled with a straight, shoulder-length cut flows from the cap, accented by rows of gold beads that decorate each side at your neck. Combine this with a Cleopatra costume or goddess-themed garb for a truly complete look!
A real-life heroHeroes come in all shapes and sizes. There’s Superman, who can jump higher than a building and shoot lasers out of his eyes (sometimes… the power sort of comes and goes). There’s Spiderman, who can do some pretty amazing backflips and climb up walls without breaking a nail. There’s Wonder Woman, who wields the Lasso of Truth and, more impressively, never loses her invisible jet.Those heroes are all pretty great, but there’s someone who’s even more heroic. And she really lived, unlike the rest of these comic characters. We’re talking about… Harriet Tubman!Everyone knows the name of Harriet Tubman. This brave African American woman escaped slavery and made 13 missions back into the South to rescue 70 people through the Underground Railroad. But did you know that during the American Civil War, Harriet also served as a nurse, an armed scout and a spy for the Union Army? She was the first woman to lead an armed expedition in the war, and guided the raid at Combahee Ferry that liberated more than 700 enslaved people. She also was an activist for women’s suffrage in her later years. Basically, this woman is a real-life superhero!Product detailsNext time you want to dress up like a true superhero, this exclusive Women's Plus Size Harriet Tubman Costume is exactly what you need.
