Is your kid fascinated by Egyptian mythology? Do you notice his eyes light up whenever the pyramids are featured on TV? Pretty understandable, through the ages, the Egyptians left a multitude of mysterious tombs and temples scattered across the desserts. From the iconic pyramids to the weird temples that held thousands of mummified dogs, the Egyptians have amazed and confused us so many times. We have to wonder, what else is out there hidden by the literal sands of time? When looking at Egyptian art we see a powerful character come up again and again. Anubis, the God of the underworld is the guy that keeps those no good mummies from returning from their crypts. From seeing the care the Egyptians took with their tombs and necropolises we know that a good afterlife was pretty important to them, so it's no wonder why they took such care to honor this God with the head of a jackal. Anubis kept the busy world of Egyptian afterlife running smoothly, after death he'd guide the souls of the embalmed to their rightful place, as long as everything in the tomb seemed above board. So, though your child may seem intimidating when he dresses up as Anubis, he is dressing up as one of the good gods. Though he sometimes showed up as a full-on jackal, this costume portrays Anubis in his humanoid form, which is both more commonly portrayed and much easier to dress as. The gold, black, and turquoise colors of the neck and headpiece gives the costume the regal appearance that Anubis would expect. Topped off with a show-stopping jackal mask, this Anubis costume cuts quite an imposing figure. Those Halloween mummies won't dare cross this guard dog.

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.
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!
He’s number two!Poor John Adams! His presidency came after George Washington’s, and it was pretty hard to compete with the very first president of the United States. But John Adams is actually pretty cool in his own right. This Founding Father wasn’t only the first vice president and second president of a fledgling country. He also helped write the Declaration of Independence, hammer out a treaty with Great Britain to end the Revolutionary War and was the first president to live in the White House. (Take that, George Washington!) Oh, and his son ended up becoming president, too!For your next U.S.-president-themed costume party, don’t go as some cliché like Washington or Theodore Roosevelt (and definitely not Abe Lincoln, since there are bound to be at least three other people doing the same thing!). Instead, show off your love of history by dressing up like ol’ John Adams, a truly underrated American president.Product detailsLook every inch like a perfect president with this exclusive Men’s John Adams Costume. The costume comes with a jacket and an attached vest, pants, a hat and a cravat. Both the jacket and the pants are 100 percent polyester. The jacket has vest panels sewn into the side and shoulder seams of the jacket, and the panels fasten at the center front with antique-brass-tone metal buttons. The cravat has a hook-and-hoop fastener at the back for easy wear, while the pants have an elastic waistband and cuffs to ensure you’ll always be comfortable. The faux suede tricorn hat has wire along the brim edge to keep its shape and always keep you looking fashionable!The coolest commander-in-chiefYou may have to spend the night explaining who you are to your fellow partygoers, but that will just give you extra chances to tell everyone how amazing John Adams really was. We think that’s a win-win!

If anyone is going to walk like an Egyptian, they need to do it in the right shoes!

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!
A Beloved TaleOne day many, many years ago, a young Isaac Newton was napping on the grounds of his school when the teacher whose class he was supposed to be taking stumbled across him. The teacher shook him awake. "Why aren't you on your way to the lecture?" he demanded. "Um," Newton was beginning to say when an apple fell on his head. "Because I am busy discovering gravity!" he finished. "Yes, that's totally what I was doing here." We're pretty sure that's how the story goes, anyway. Product DetailsDress just like a genius mathmetician in this Sir Isaac Newton Costume for Boys! The outfit includes a long green jacket with lapels, flared cuffs, and white ruffles sewn around each wrist. The mustard yellow vest front features a row of white buttons. A ruffled white cravat fastens at the back of your neck. The knee-length gray pants have a comfortable elastic waistband. Add a touch of historical elegance with the faux shoe buckles that secure under each shoe via elastic bands. The Power of Math Scientific discovery isn't just about completing boring homework problems. It's about looking at the everyday world with curiosity and testing cool new theories about the things that fascinate you! Someday you could be remembered as the kid who proved an obscure volume principle by trying to figure out how many pieces of broccoli you could hide under your dinner plate. If you're feeling generous, you can even thank your broccoli-loving parents in your speech when you accept your award.
Helpful HeroesWhy is it that when we're watching superhero movies, we're watching muscly people throw villains through walls, causing all sorts of destruction? But real heroes don't wear capes. Real heroes wear gloves, masks, and aprons, ready to help whenever disaster strikes. Clara Barton was one of those heroes. She started her career in the muddy trenches of the Civil War, reaching out to wounded soldiers in dire situations. After making a name for herself by saving lives on the battlefield, she was just getting started. Clara then traveled to Europe and found out about the Red Cross when she visited Switzerland. After seeing all the good The Red Cross was doing, she was determined to start the American Red Cross and got to work as soon as she returned home!Design & DetailsInspired by Clara Barton's amazing legacy, our in-house design team was inspired to design a historical costume to let kids roleplay as the important figure. The featured dress zips up the back and has a petticoat built-in to the skirt for extra flounce. The shape of the dress has billowy sleeves with clean white cuffs layered over the forearms. A matching white apron with a red cross on the bodice is layered over the front and tied around the waist for a clean, hospital-ready look. Topped off with a neat bonnet, this costume is ready for school projects, history festivals, and costume parties alike. Designed with quality in mind, your child will be able to slip into this Clara Barton costume over and over again!Dress Up to Do GoodThe American Red Cross began to do good right away, reaching out for disaster relief for the first time in 1881, a month after the first local chapter opened! Without a tough, intelligent, and loving superhero all the American Red Cross outreach wouldn't have happened. Dress up as a true superhero for your next costumed event. Dress up as Clara Barton!
Blue Skies AheadWomen and girls on the prairie faced a lot of adventures. They herded the cows in from the field when dark storm clouds threatened from the horizon.

Ax us no questions and we'll tell you no liesWe went back in time and polled a Viking village from the sixteenth century about their preferred battle weapons. Honestly, it didn't go very well because the people we elected to go in and take the poll were taken captive in an instant. The Viking warriors took their tablets, their sunglasses, and raincoats. The little warrior kids even snatched Anthony's pocket protector. So if an anthropologist discovers what looks like the first ancient Best Buy in Northern Norway, they can give us a call and hear the story. We did get an answer, by the way. Anthony ended up charming his way into the community by breaking out his early nineties rap routine. Lucky for our data, he had grown up as a beatboxing nerd. Once he had warmed them up the Viking warriors let him know that the two-handed ax is the only way to go when it comes to heading into battle. Product DetailsYou'll love the hand-made look of this ax. The handle is long and has a warm color. The ax head is silver with Nordic details stamped into the metallic finish. Big, Bad, and Battle-readyWhether you're dressing up for Halloween or you're heading out for LARPing, this ax will make you feel ready for the shield wall. It'll pair well with any of our Viking costumes. Plus, as all the other Viking's know, the two-handed ax is the only way to go!
Who is George?George Washington, the famous founding father. The very first President of the United States. That handsome face on the front of the one dollar bill. You probably remember him from your history classes. You probably know the story about him chopping down a cherry tree and then truthfully admitting it to his father. That story might be more fiction than fact, but it’s certainly stuck in your head all of these years. Of course, your kid probably knows him more as the cool-guy-from-the-famous-Broadway-musical-about-Alexander-Hamilton.Well, whether your child is a U.S. history buff, a fan of Broadway musicals, or he just needs an authentic looking outfit for his next school play, then this George Washington costume for kids is definitely the way to go.Design & DetailsThis historical costume comes with everything your child needs to look like the one and only George Washington!

R-E-S-P-E-C-T, find out what it means to Viking deities. Mostly, respect meant keeping your head high, keeping the whining to a minimum and fighting til the end. If Viking warriors could do that than they would be carried to Valhalla by a type of Norse goddess called a Valkyrie. Sweet deal, eh?The goddesses of the Vikings had it together, at least compared to the gods. They never kidnapped people, plotted violent events, or schemed to make the other gods feud with each other. The Valkyries focused on getting their important jobs done and hit up the mead hall in after hours. Hmm, sounds similar to human women in the modern era. And when Valhalla got too loud and violent? Who'd have thought a heavenly mead hall full of Viking warriors would be loud and violent? The Valkyries would seek some peace and quiet on earth, swooping into battles on their flying horses surrounded by ravens that they could communicate with. That doesn't sound like a bad gig.It's easy to channel your inner fierce goddess for your next costumed event. Lucky for you, Odin has blessed us mere mortals with a perfectly balanced costume that's at once cozy and sexy. In velvet and faux fur, you'll be ready to patrol the wind-blown battlefields of Norway while the off the shoulder dress with thigh high skirt slit makes you ready to party in Valhalla. Talk about versatility! The faux leather armor will let those warriors know you're no one to be messed with, even Thor has to lay some respect down for this Valkyrie.

First lady of styleMost people can name the Founding Fathers: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams… Heck, Alexander Hamilton even has a whole musical about him! These guys are famous, and rightfully so, but you know what they say: Behind every great man is a great woman. Most of the Founding Fathers were married and supported by loving wives, but you never really get to learn much about the Founding Mothers. We think it’s about time to change that!Abigail Adams was the wife of John Adams, the second president of the United States. And she was pretty cool in her own right, too!

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!

Just be sure and take a few rules from George Washington's notes and keep those legs uncrossed!
Where Art Thou Rhyme SchemeShakespeare oh Shakespeare! Wherefore art thine rhyme scheme, Will? Tis but thy fancy wording that is our enemy. Thou art thyself, a wicked good screenwriter. What is a rhyme? It is nor pun nor plot twist, nor meet cute or will they won't they, nor any other classic movie ploy. What is with your tricky tongue? That which we call a rose by any other name would just complicate things. So Shakespeare, would he not use Shakespeare speak. Retain that dear perfection which he owes without the funny stuff.

Don't Take Any Wooden TeethGeorge Washington is famous for telling the truth. Funny, since there are many false myths about this founding father. First off, let's get this straight. President Washington did not have dentures made of wooden teeth. If you think about this, we should have known. Of course, he didn't use wooden teeth. He was a well-dressed, high ranking member of society even before he was president. Can you imagine how uncomfortable wooden teeth would be? No matter how well-varnished those dentures were, they'd get splintery within weeks! We're sure George Washington wouldn't mind if that rumor ended once and for all. The first president of the United States also didn't chop down a cherry tree or ask Betsy Ross to design the first American flag. But to be honest, those myths are a lot less disgusting than the wooden denture story, so we'll let those slide for now. Design & DetailsThis bright blue and yellow General George Washington uniform is Made By Us, which means it was designed by our in-house creative team.
