Big Sky Day DreamsCan you imagine what it would have been like to be a child on the prairies, traveling with a covered wagon convoy? A journey by wagon was shaky and uncomfortable so women and children walked along with the oxen, running wild with children from the other families, dogs nipping at their heels, keeping them together. We're sure it was hard work, keeping everyone fed and safe. But it would have been such an adventure for the kids! It's said that the grass of the prairies was long and endless, the wind would make it blow back and forth like waves in the ocean. You can still see the skies they saw when you're out west, big, blue, and bright. It's no wonder that this journey west still captures the imaginations of young and old alike! Make playing pioneer even more fun with this colorful ensemble that's ready for a western adventure. Product DetailsIn bright blue gingham, your child will look right at home in wide open spaces. This costume is ready to go with a sweet pair of bloomers and a lovely ruffled bonnet. The checkered dress has a peter pan collar and a little bow. A pinafore style apron is attached and has a pretty flowered print. Perfect for spinning in a field of wildflowers, this is sure to be a favorite for playing pretend as well as photo shoots and Halloween. West is the BestThere's no question that westward is the best way to travel until you get to the coast. The sky gets bigger, the mountains get more dramatic, and the adventures get more epic. And if you want to raise a little pioneer adventurer, you've got to start 'em young. Hitch up the wagon and get ready, this costume is sure to spur on all sorts of pioneer playtime!
There are a bunch of perks to being the very first of anything, especially the first president. Sure, you don't have a previous president to blame stuff on, but it also means you are totally allowed to make stuff up as you go. Step into the shoes of the guy who literally wrote the book on being the US president with this George Washington Costume, and add some patriotic authority to your day! Every American knows who George Washington is (at least as the "dollar bill guy"), but it's impossible for us to know what he was actually thinking when he became the country's very first president. He managed to make it work, but what kinds of things could he have done during his presidency that would have made the government a lot stranger? Could he have issued an executive order that all disputes in Congress were to be resolved by a potato sack race? Or, that the president got to wear a superhero style cape as part of their official uniform? It sounds weird, but compared to some real parts of the government, not that weird. No need to worry about looking weird, though, because when you're dressed in this presidential outfit, you're the boss (as long as you also get a majority vote from the costumed electoral college). The overcoat, vest, and matching trousers are a fine example of 18th Century style, and be sure to add a powdered wig to complete this Founding Fatherly look. Whether you're wearing it for a historical reenactment or play, or just having some patriotic costumed fun, you'll look truly revolutionary!
Time for Some Tea and Civilized Conversation"U up? Wyd?" Ugh, no thanks. Leave the texting era behind and go back to a time where the rules of civility were stylish and you could dress up as much as you like. It's not as though we want to get rid of indoor plumbing, air conditioning, and espresso machines, but it would be nice to be able to go to a ball - or more than one! - every season.

Perfect for costume parties, festivals, and more, this outfit includes a floor-length blue gown patterned with a silver floral design. The scoop neckline perfectly complements the high empire waist and the puffy cap sleeves add an extra touch of 19th-Century fashion.

Waiting for StyleIt's easy to tire oneself of modern technology -- and style. We totally get it. Sometimes even state-of-the-art gadgets and gizmos look like cheap flashy junk. If you're the type of gal that prefers brass, gears, and leather over plastic, LCDs, and wi-fi, then this Burgundy Steampunk Hat is just the accessory you need to reinvigorate your wardrobe before your next retro adventure!What exactly makes something “steampunk?" A lot of times, it's something that you just know when you see it, but there's definitely more to making something steampunk than slapping some valves on it and putting it on board a zeppelin. It's a unique style that fuses Victorian Era fashion and sensibility with the loud, gritty, and dangerous look of the Industrial Revolution, which makes everything appear more exciting! For instance, would you want to drive your boring old car to work everyday if you could pilot a “pneumatic powered quad-wheeled auto-buggy” instead? Even though those are basically the same things, the second one sounds much cooler!Design & DetailsSame goes for this Burgundy Steampunk Hat, whose lacing, feathers, tulle wrap, and beaded details makes it nothing if not cool. The goggles have an elastic band to secure them to the hat, and the one size fits most noggins! Careful up there in the sky, adventurer -- we hear that while the tech has advanced in Steampunkland, the safety measures haven't.

And that's all the time you needed to start clubbing!
Live Snakes Are Not JewelryHave you ever tried using a live snake as jewelry? Let us tell you, it’s not very easy. A living snake has a mind of its own and it might not agree with your idea of it sitting nicely around your wrist.

DEATH WAS NEVER SO CUTEIf you ever wondered what the afterlife was like and got that slight pang of fear that goes shooting up your spine, well, we can completely understand that! The unknown is pretty scary. Even the word itself sounds pretty ominous. It probably didn't help that the ancient Egyptians decided to say that Death was like a shrouded black dog that hovered over you, ready to judge your soul against the weight of a feather or clunk you with his golden staff! But, who are we to say that isn't what death looks like? Frankly, a cute black pupper is a good deal easier to deal with than the phantom robe with a slashing scythe. Still, we can probably do better. We can make that image just a little, oh, we dunno... cuter? And, as everyone knows, tiny things are adorable! So, let's take that giant, scary Anubis and shrink him down into kiddo size and, zap, we've got a totally inviting deity of death to help soothe our fears. DESIGN & DETAILSTake the first step to afterlife comfort when you give your child this kid's Anubis costume. It comes with the black mask that features tall dog ears & eye holes, and a shining striped hood. The collar is a shiny gold wrap that covers the top portion of their chest. The shirt is a tight long-sleeved black jersey and the pants have puffy harem-style legs. The sash and belt feature the same gold of the headpiece with ancient Egyptian hieroglyph styled markings. The attached long teal cape and golden cuffs make your little death god ready for work! BOUND FOR ETERNITYAnubis was supposedly bound for all times to watch over the underworld and evaluate every soul that passed through his domain. We know that's a lot of work for a first-time deity, so we've worked out that your kiddos will only have to look the part until they're ready to tackle the big stuff. But, they're going to feel truly mighty in this Anubis look, either way!
Nobility! Finery! Passionate and powerful gods! Academic and tempered minds engaging in worthy debate and discourse over complex and important matters! Drunken nights of wild boasting and debauchery! … Well, not all of that seems like it belongs wrapped up into the same perceived culture, but this is the Ancient Rome we know and love and it is completely understandable how so many find themselves seeking to reenact much of the ancient civilization.Whether you have ambitions of high society and the delightful antics that might accompany them or grand designs for a place among the ancient Roman gods, there is certainly one thing that holds true: you must look the part. And that part demands the perfect toga! The illustrious garment is seen worn both by Greek and Roman gods… which is admittedly a bit of a confounding kerfuffle. Are they the same gods interpreted by two different cultures? Two different pantheons who occasionally reside in similar places? Neptune, for one, was a pretty raging guy and rather impossible to deal with on even the best of days, though his Greek counterpart, Poseidon, enjoyed offering council and healing to those he liked… (and tormenting those he didn’t). Well, we might not be able to solve those differences, but we can definitely recognize that they had superb toga taste.And, whether you’re looking at doing a historical reenactment or headed out to the local frat for the perfect toga party, you are going to look fantastic, too, with this Deluxe Men’s Toga costume. The cream colored tunic has a draping front, edged with contrasting black and metallic gold-leaf brocade to give you that exotic and wealthy feel. The sleeves are edged with faux leather and the matching wrist cuffs give you that air of authenticity. Be sure to add the right leather sandals and perhaps a crown of ivy and you’ll be ready to ascend without even needing to debate the deific origins!
Look, man…we’ve all been through our share of break-ups, alright? And we’ve all done the thing where we’ve started dating someone and things were going pretty okay in the beginning, but then it got really serious really fast and we kind of wanted to get out of there, but we didn’t really know how to do it, so we kind of just let it keep going for way longer than we should have, and then by the end we were so done with that person and the relationship that we were pretty sucky in the way we dumped them.It’s happens! Luckily for us, we’ve learned from the error of our ways and now we’re pretty good about doing the “Hey, we had a great time, but this just isn’t working out for us” talk face-to-face (even though it would be SO MUCH EASIER to just do it over text or ghost out), But you, friend, kind of need to take a good, hard look in the mirror and figure out if the way you’re ending things with your former flames isn’t just a lil’ severe. What we mean is…is it really necessary to behead every lady you no longer want around? It feels pretty drastic to sentence a woman to death just because she said something she didn’t like or you decided you liked someone else better, don’t you think?And we get it - you’re the king, and you can do whatever you want, and you always look fantastic in this Plus Size King Henry VIII Costume, so it’s not like you’re wanting for female attention. And yeah, so maybe you don’t have to go the extra mile to cut things off (oh geez…pun alert!) in a nice and delicate way, but…dude, you’re starting to get a reputation. And it’s not a good one. So just..think about it, okay? Like, divorce exists!
Wealth Redistribution, but Make It CoolLook, it's really the fault of Prince John and his Sheriff of Nottingham. Besides raising taxes far too high, they also use the worst possible means of money transfer. Anyone who sees those huge coaches filled with gold rolling through Sherwood Forest is bound to feel like swiping some. And not only do you steal it, but you give it back to the people who had it in the first place. No one will feel like turning Mr. Popular Robber in to the authorities after such generous derring-do. Product DetailsReach legend status in this exclusive Plus Size Deluxe Robin Hood Costume for Men! Perfect for a rough-and-tumble lifestyle, the long-sleeved top is designed to look like a brown vest worn over a cream-colored shirt. The vest portion is decorated with a lace-up neckline and metal rivets, while the sleeves look amazing when tucked into the faux leather wristbands. Buckle the faux leather belt around your waist and tie the green hooded cape around your neck to finish your outfit. Merry Mischief Thwart the greedy king and his tight-fisted henchmen together with your gang of outlaws! Feel free to get a few friends to dress like you and join your team, or be a lone hero fighting for the people (and looking amazing while doing it). May we suggest, however, that if you show off your archery skills, you do so outside? The interior of a party probably isn't he best place to demonstrate your ability to split an arrow with another arrow.
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!

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!

Your Hour of PowerIt seems like there was a god or goddess for everything back in the day. Romans and Greeks had goddesses that made sure that plants and gardens were healthy. They believed in a messenger goddess that would paint rainbows in the sky. and let's never forget the handful of goddesses and gods that were involved in hunting and warfare. If you were a Greek Goddess, what would be your area of expertise? Would you be the goddess of inspiring women to seek passive-aggressive yet genius revenge on cheating exes?

Warrior PoseAre you ready to get in touch with your inner shieldmaiden? Us modern folks might have to do a little toughening up before we step into her fur-lined boots. Growing up as a Viking she probably has swum in the icy water of the fjords from the time she was a little girl. We've seen her take blows in battle.

Sometimes, the world just needs a rebel. What would have happened if Robin Hood just decided that he was going to obey the Sheriff of Nottingham's unfair rules and taxes?

Far AfieldHave you ever looked out on a wide horizon and wished you could know what it would have been like to be a pioneer woman? If your average pioneer women got a glimpse in our houses these days, she would be blown over by the luxury we live within our day-to-day. There are no lamps to trim, we don't have to score our clothes by hand, when we want to go above and beyond to bake some bread, all we have to do is turn on the stove. She would even be delighted by our solid walls and rooves, as many pioneer women wound up living in sod houses, literal bricks of dirt are great at keeping the warmth in and the wind out but they still had to deal with dirt and bugs falling all over the house... gross. Maybe it's time we invited our inner pioneer woman to take a break in our modern lives for a bit.

Follow the Drinking Gourd“I had reasoned this out in my mind, there was one of two things I had a right to, liberty or death; if I could not have one, I would have the other.” -Harriet TubmanEveryone 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!We think that no one deserves more recognition and honor than Harriet Tubman, so we’re not surprised that you want to dress up like her for your next costume party.

Rebel with a CauseNot every rebel needs a cause. They disobey the natural order for no real reason at all! Just ask James Dean about that one! But your girl, she's different. She wants to right the wrongs of the world! She wants to fight against all of the evil "Sheriff Nottinghams" of the world. She wants to steal from the rich and give to the poor.

The costume comes with a white top, with a faux leather corset with a lace-up front. The belt comes with a small, faux leather quiver to help your young rebel carry some spare arrows (or her phone if she's taking a break from winning archery competitions). The included gauntlets are also made out of faux leather material to continue the Medieval style. The forest green leggings complement the faux leather style of the rest of the outfit and the included hood adds the finishing touch to the costume!Hitting the TargetIf your child is ready to rebel against tyranny, or if she just wants a look that will hit the mark at her next costume, then our Robin Hood Costume for girls is right on target!
HEIR TO THE NORTHRuling an entire realm of Vikings is... complicated. Even when you have a Seer who is telling you what is going to end up happening, well, they tend to just tell you cryptic things about when you're going to die, so it isn't exactly always helpful. That is why, sometimes, it is better to be the firstborn of the ruler, instead. It gives you plenty of time to watch your father wield his axe and all that authority. Definitely gives you something to emulate!And, best yet, it gives you a clear idea of what you need to avoid when it is your turn to take leadership over the clan.

A Medieval Anti-HeroSome knights get all the glory. Turns out all you had to do to get your name in the books was show up at a big circular table and tell a bunch of jokes around a bunch of blokes who you aren't even sure really knew how to ride a horse! Meanwhile, you walk around the court in your pretty stylish armor and folks freak out just because you like the look of black on silver. "Oh, no! The Dark Knight comes!" they scream and you're like, "Yeah, I just finished saving your town from roving bandits! You're welcome!?"Let's be honest. If you're not in a set of shining silver armor and speaking thirty unintelligible syllables per sentence, most of the villagers won't give you the time of day. We're here to change that, though, by showing that even those edgy crusaders can save the day. Design & Details Show that not all knights shine in the same style when you gear up in our Dark Crusader costume. This is a Made By Us design that channels the edgy quality we love in anti-heroes and applies it to the bold knights of the past! Start with an inspired tunic with the look of chain mail, and a hood to match. The full-length tabard is worn over top and provides the dark color you've quested for as well as a white cross on the chest. Cinch your look together with the double belts and pair of gauntlets and you're ready to tackle anything! (Though maybe a prop sword and shield wouldn't hurt!)The Dark KnightEvery legend has a story about the knight in shining armor saving the day. It is time for you to tell a story that is brand new when you step into this Dark Crusader costume and claim the tale for yourself! Don't forget your prop sword and shield because you don't want to end up like that other Black Knight of Camelot. (Let's go ahead and avoid even those flesh wounds, okay!?)
Your Meow-jestyIt's no wonder that the Egyptians assumed that cats were connected to a higher power. Cats do what they do and they do it with confidence. It doesn't matter where those cats are hanging out. Give a cat access to the White House executive desk and you'll catch them knocking the presidential pen off the desk. We like to imagine the cats of the Nile getting tangled up in the mummifying gauze and looking up at the dignified priests like, "what".The cat-like goddess Bastet is one that we all could get in touch with. She's a boss. She made sure that the mothers of Egypt were taken care of. She made sure that the rodents of Egypt didn’t eat all the profits of the fertile crescent. Some mythologies even gave her the war-like title of protector of Egypt. We like to think that all cat-lovers have a part of Bastet deep down inside. This Halloween, sharpen those claws and perk up your feline nature!Product Details & DesignThis gorgeous lightweight black and gold costume is Made-By-Us. Our designers researched both Egyptian looks as well as the goddess's look to create this fashionable and fun look. The top is a blend of metallic gold and lightweight sparkly gauze. The skirt has a center panel with hieroglyphics over the twisting lightweight skirt. With the cold shoulder black body suit underneath, this look is a sleek showstopper that would look right at home at the pyramids. The whole ensemble is topped off with a knit mesh cap with gold stripes on the ears. Crowns Not CollarsIt's about time that cats got back some of that Egyptian respect back! No more Youtube videos of cats getting caught in blinds and missing their jumps. Bastet will set it right. Suit up in this gorgeous ensemble and it won't be long until cats are running the kingdom again.
Are you always picking up the weapons of your vanquished foes, only to find yourself tossing them aside the next time a lion challenges you to a Greco-Roman wrestling match? You're not alone. According to a recent survey, one in five men may experience problems keeping track of his sword in the arena. This debilitating problem can result in emotional distress, confusion, and a drastic reduction in the number of his remaining limbs. And it afflicts more people than you might think!But now, there's hope. This detailed armament combo makes use of a revolutionary advance in faux metallurgy that allows a warrior to sheathe his weapon inside his shield! We expect both the gladiator-on-the-go and the hands-on naturalist to make heavy use of the slot deftly concealed behind the lion's head relief at the center of this buckler, which fits the included broadsword. Who says that there's nothing new under the sun?
We're Not JokingFloki jokes about a lot of things. He jokes about the gods. He jokes about authority and love and war. He jokes about everything that's sacred to the Vikings. One thing that Floki doesn't joke about? He doesn't mess around when it comes to boats.When it came time to do the impossible and cross the wide sea to find a land that Ragnar and Floki weren't even sure existed, Floki was there to put his mind to the task. He not only finds the best lumber for the ships, he sees inside the trees before he even makes a cut. Sure, he's a complicated guy but when it comes to seacraft, the gods' love his boats!

Just to be sure to add Floki's dramatic eye makeup to make your character instantly recognizable. Now, whether you use charcoal or eyeliner is up to you!Uncharted TerritoryFinding solutions to unsolvable problems is what Floki loves best. When you step into his character, you'll need to think on your feet. Maybe you're heading out with Lagertha, Ragnar, and Bjorn Ironside or maybe you're heading out on a solo expedition. Either way, we're pretty confident you'll find adventure. Just make sure you've got a prop ax at your side. Whether you're building a ship or leading an army in battle, Floki is never unprepared!
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!' Now, we figure that everyone has a story that is worth telling, but how do you get the confidence to stand up and tell it?We always advise changing up the style to help bolster that hop-to attitude.

death's doorWhen Anubis got a job as the underworld's bouncer, he didn't think he'd have any trouble. After all, the folks at the party were dead! What uninvited soul would want in this particular club? Well, it turns out, there are always people lining up to get into the Necropolis to "try to rescue" someone in their life.

And when the living talks about how Hades let so-and-so take a challenge and escape death, Anubis strongly reminds them that his Necropolis is an exclusive city, not some down and out river of the dead like the river Styx. That kind of attitude is exactly why this jackal god has always been the only guy for the job!
The prehistoric bone club was only wielded by the mightiest of Neanderthals; the ones who were strong enough to hunt a menacing dinosaur with a sturdy bone structure. If you're planning on being king of the cave and have your leopard tunic already, adding the mighty bone club to your ensemble is a must.During the dawn of man only the strong survived, and the famed dinosaur club was sure to assert your dominance. Plus, the bone is picked clean. An appetite like that can only come from someone who's worked for it! But know, that great power comes with great responsibility.So, what exactly is this bone from? It kind of looks like a shin bone from a poorly drawn Apatosaurus. Or maybe a femur from an oddly-shaped sabre tooth tiger? Not sure. Wherever you want to pretend you found it, works for us.

He's got the powerBenjamin Franklin was a superhero of his time. It might be true that he had a receding hairline instead of rippling abs but he made more of an impact on the United States and France than Batman has ever made on Gotham.

Heading out on an incredible steampunk adventure always sounds like a blast! But any intrepid explorer knows you can't go on a vintage fantasy quest wearing just any old getup. Gearing up in this fashionably fanciful Steampunk Girl Costume is a top notch way to look cute and ready for excitement!In the steampunk world, you have many of the same comforts and conveniences at your disposal as you do in the modern world, except everything is a little bit different. For instance, if you were living in a steampunk society, you wouldn't just hop onto the subway or get in your car to run to the grocery store. Everyone knows that you would board a “pneumatic-actuated municipal mass conveyor” or pilot your “personal autonomous gyro-copter” to the “provisions and sundries shoppe"! What may surprise you, though, are the kinds of dangers you could run into on your journeys, which are also a little bit different.

Sounds like a capital adventure to us!The other thing that may surprise you about steampunk life is how cute the outfits are. Just add a pair of vintage style boots to this elegantly sporty costume, and your trendy blend of Victorian and science fiction fashion will look perfect at the wheel of a massive airship, or cutting loose on a dance floor!
Fourscore and seven years ago…Well, it’s been a little longer than that since Abraham Lincoln was president, but he’s still one of the most famous commanders-in-chief in our country’s history. Name a more famous president. Maybe George Washington, but that’s about it, and that’s not really fair, since he was the first president, and all. He got a lot of publicity for that. But Abraham Lincoln is definitely one of the best-known guys, and not just because he’s got his face carved onto the side of a giant mountain!But Abraham Lincoln didn’t start out with an illustrious career. Did you know he actually argued a case in front of the Supreme Court and lost? He also lost five separate elections during his attempts to get involved in politics. So, we guess the best thing to learn from Lincoln is to never stop trying to fulfill your dreams, no matter how long it takes!Product detailsIf you’re itching to dress up like one of America’s most beloved presidents, but you don’t want to wear wooden teeth to pull off a truly authentic George Washington, then we recommend this President Abe Lincoln Costume.

There’s also a satin bowtie with an elastic band to secure around your collar.Of course, an Abe Lincoln costume would be nothing without his iconic top hat, and we’ve got you covered there with a dazzlingly tall black top hat featuring a shiny satin ribbon. (The shirt and pants, though, aren’t included, so make sure you don’t forget to add some before stepping out on the town!)Hail to the chief!Whether you’re heading to a historical reenactment or just a Halloween party, this costume is the perfect presidential choice!
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?
Hey there, warrior! Have you been trying to get yourself inside the Colosseum for a spot of combat? Well, then you'd better not charge into there without a weapon! After all, they're going to throw every kind of mean-faced gladiator and ferocious lions at you, so you'd better come prepared with a solid game plan of kicking butt with a super awesome historical weapon. That's where this Roman Gladius Sword comes in!This toy weapon looks just like the one wielded by various fighters from Ancient Rome. Of course, it's made out of plastic, since we really can't just sell you dangerous weaponry (it's a liability thing). This toy sword does, however, come with a highly realistic look that should be enough to scare any gladiator or lion in the ring. Of course, you could always use it for LARPing too, since we're huge supporters of any activity that involves pretend fighting against giant cyclops monsters. Whatever you decide to use it for, you'll be sure to look like the toughest warrior around!
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.

Queen for a DayThose ancient rulers really knew how to live it up. Why join the 9 to 5 drudgery when you could float down the Nile River on a gilded barge, being fanned by your loyal attendants and eating sugared dates? After all, as ruler of Egypt, you're the living embodiment of the Sun God. You really deserve these special perks. Nowadays, it's harder to get that royal treatment. Having thousands of servants isn't really a thing anymore, and you probably wouldn't want it anyway because, you know, modern sensibilities and human equality and all.

And dress as the most sensational, seductive ruler in history this Halloween! Product DetailsShow what a queen you are in this Plus Size Women's Queen Cleopatra Adult Costume!

The attached blue sleeves are as divinely blue as the desert sky, and the golden apron features matching blue jewels. A jeweled collar is the last word in decadent finery. Endless PossibiltiesThe best thing about dressing as Cleopatra is that you can play it as dialed-down or as sumptuous as you like. You can choose to find a dainty headpiece and go the understated-yet-regal route, or you can twine a live snake around your arm and make your entrance on a royal litter. The choice is yours!
Imagine living in a world where nasty villain comes to your home, takes all your food and money in the name of the Prince, then he laughs in your face. Not cool, dude. Not cool at all. Well, that's the kind of place that Nottingham and Sherwood Forest. The Sheriff of Nottingham happily enforces the unfair taxes on the poor unchallenged by the common citizens. They need a hero! They need an outlaw! They need...your courageous young girl! Yes, that's right. We think your girl has the right stuff to play the role of Robin Hood, the hero of all the classic tales. All she needs is a great costume and a great imagination.This Miss Robin Hood Costume for girls lets your child look like of the classic storybook character that has a serious problem with authority. The costume comes with a dress-style re-imagining of his garb, including deep forest green themes to help your girl blend into the forest, which also helps her when she's planning an ambush for the Sheriff!

The Noble TogaFor a century, the Romans ruled and created some pretty remarkable architecture! They had a society filled with some pretty advanced ideas, too! But, of all their inventions, we have to give the highest praise to their fashion sense. This glorious weave of wool is what separated the scholars from the students. What other article of clothing has inspired an entire theme for parties!? It's time to give a little honor to the toga that elevates us all. It's a pretty common belief that everyone in Greece and Rome wore the toga. But, a real ancient Roman would gasp at the audacity. The true toga was for Roman citizens exclusively. Then you had the ones with golden shawls or even purple stripes! Those meant that you had an emperor or even a member of the Roman Senate striding up to you. Of course, these days, we wear them a bit more freely. (Plus, we've made a few modern adaptations to make them easier, too!)Product DetailsJump into the fun of a toga party or some ancient Roman rulership with our Party Toga costume! You won't need 18-feet of cloth to bring your illustrious frame to bear. With this costume, you'll be able to slip into the look of a toga with a simple tunic that features golden trim and accents on a pure white base. The gold belt keeps things cinched thanks to hoop and loop strips in the back. Give yourself a Senatorial boost with the included gold leaf headband and then choose between the blue or red shawl to complete your look. Command the PartyThe Roman Senate might have been fighting with each other for a thousand years. But you won't have to fight to get a winning look. This Party Toga costume is a comfy and stylish way to bring ancient Rome into the modern day!
Whatever you like most about the steampunk genre, you can always be sure you'll look unique! We may not always know what those spring-loaded gadgets and gear-covered gizmos that show up in steampunk stories are supposed to do, but that old fashioned sense of style gets our imaginations running wild. Gear up in this chic Victorian Steampunk Costume, and you'll look ready for your own steampunk adventure!Whenever we think of steampunk, we always picture a world full of massive zeppelins, glittering brass covered skyscrapers, and dashingly dressed heroes fighting off evil doers in thrilling, white knuckle air battles. There's also a quieter side of this hi-tech alternate historical setting, which is full of elegant and ornate outfits (and complex but familiar devices) which combine classic fashion and design with the steely power and might of industry. Victorian style is classy and sophisticated enough on its own, but when your mix it with the flash and functionality of steampunk, you've got yourself a sexy retro look that will really make you stand out!This glamorous ensemble is part vintage, part industrial fashion, and all steampunk! The corset style top features strap-like details, rather than the laces you'd expect to find on a traditional corset, and an attached velvet collar with matching puffy shouldered sleeves. The matching leggings and skirt add a sassy mixture of old world and modern feminine fashions, while also letting you show off whichever boots you add to this look. Whatever you like most about this costume, you'll look good no matter where your adventure takes you!
Well, good morrow to you, young squire! Have another mug of mead to warm that belly. Aye, the tavern is where we call home. As they say, sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your title. So come on in, pull up a stool to the bar and have a drink with Cliff, the scroll-delivery man and Norm, whatever he does for a living. And then there's Frasier, Diane, basically, everybody knows your title at the tavern (Alright so it's not exactly Cheers but can't it at least feel that way?!). The best thing about Renaissance taverns is that no one hassles you for spending all your time there. Plenty of bar wenches to leer at too, once you've had one too many mugs of beer. And taverns are great places to find adventures!Yes, that's right, adventures. You never know when you'll bump into a knight on his way to slay a dragon. Or perhaps an eccentric old wizard, who turned his apprentice into a frog and must now journey to the forbidden forests to retrieve a pure witch's eye for his cure potion. Or maybe some of the king's men will come in, demanding free drinks and grabbing a wench for fun. Or maybe some rioting townspeople are planning to burn you at the stake because they think you're responsible for the drought. Oh dear. Taverns seem pretty dangerous, now that we think of it. Why are dangerous people always ending up in taverns? Next think you know, that knight will be leading a dragon right to you. And those townspeople will start a bonfire for you. Either that or people will start calling you the town drunk, which, let's face it, you are. How could you not be? You spend every waking moment (and many passed out moments) in that tavern drinking.
