It's Hero Time! "Hail, Caesar! We, about to die, salute thee!" Whoa, depressing much? Not really. Those gladiators were just covering their bases. Obviously they planned to defeat their enemies, impress the crowds, become a mighty hero and all that jazz, but...their opponents were usually huge tigers who hadn't been fed in a week and were starting to think that a nice, muscle-bound gladiator might be a tasty snack. Or a huge criminal who had been promised his freedom if he could bash in enough gladiator heads. So, just in case, the gladiators made sure to salute the throne like it was the last thing they'd ever do. Fortunately for you, you've got the right equipment and skills - you'll be a hero for sure! Product DetailsEmerge victorious from an epic struggle and become Caesar's champion with these Studded Gladiator Cuffs for Men!

Those buckle-shoed yokels were incurring the wrath of one of the strongest militaries in the civilized world just because they didn't want to pay more for tea and paper.

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!)
Legendary Pest ControlGot monsters in your neighborhood and don't know what to do? Fear no more, Hercules has it covered! This hero takes down Nemean lions in a matter of minutes. Is a nine-headed Hydra mucking up your city's sewer system? Hercules knows what to do. From multi-headed hounds to ferocious riddle-loving felines, this home-town hero has got you covered! What's that? Modern monsters on your hands? We're sure our hero can smooth out your community. All for the low, low price of your admiration and adoration. And really, who could turn this charmer down? He'll head to Hades and back just for a great review. So next time there are fire-belching wolves roaming your streets or dog-sized scorpions scaling your walls, give this hero a call and they'll have nowhere to run. Thanks, Hercules!Product DetailsWe're happy to welcome Hercules into our modern era with this officially licensed Disney costume. Straight out of the hit cartoon, this costume is simple to throw on so that you'll be ready to take down any cruel creatures that come your way! The tunic is belted with a lighting motif in the middle to show off this demi-god's origins. It has a blue cape attached to the back and is finished off with faux leather gauntlets to keep you safe while fighting off the beasties. Hunk-cules HappeningsDisney's version of the epic hero Hercules is a lot more admirable than the one written about in Greek mythology. Sure, he might not always listen to his animal companions when it comes to trusting that "damsel in distress". But wouldn't his Olympian dictated trials have been a little dry if it weren't for Meg's antics? And in the end, Hercules made it out on top. So this Halloween, bring Hercules back to take care of any monsters that might crop up in your neighborhood. Let's just hope he can tell the difference between a store-bought ghoul and one that's sent from the gods!
The Maids of BraidsThe Medieval era embraced lush textures and hairstyles. Both men and women of high standing wore layer after layer of wool, silk, and velvet that were all trimmed with furs. Ladies' fashion played around with all sorts of silhouettes. Fitted sleeves would be layered under long, trailing sleeves.

BOSS LADY GOALSCleo was a boss lady, plain and simple. She built an empire in a world dominated by men and she did it with style, sass, and a little bit of controversy, just like any great ruler would. The female Egyptian pharaoh was fearless, attractive and intelligent. We don't know anyone who wears a royal headpiece, carries an ankh staff and can also speak a variety of languages. Cleo's rare combo of brains, beauty, and an overwhelming amount of boss lady vibes inspired our team of talented designers to create the one and only Cleopatra pantsuit. For decades, the pantsuit symbolizes dominance and possesses an ability to command the attention of an entire room. Is it any wonder that powerful women are still wearing pantsuits in the present? We think not!If you'd love to see Cleopatra dressed in a competent and classy pantsuit then you can make it happen by transforming into a contemporary version of the iconic queen. The Cleopatra pantsuit is everything needed to rule over Halloween like the true queen that you are. PRODUCT DETAILSThe women's Cleopatra costume is a Made by Us garment so it's high-quality and high-fashion. The crisp, white jumpsuit features a stylish high waist and a cascading gold-fabric sash that drapes down in the front and the back. The attached collar fastens around the neck while the coordinating wrist and upper arm bands add an extra dose of gilded splendor. Finally, the crown tops off the costume as the final piece that offsets the regal ensemble. BOW DOWN BEFORE YOUR QUEENIn addition to an ankh staff and a pair of killer gold heels, we recommend one key accessory: Caeser hanging off your arm, although a powerful woman, like yourself, never needs a man in order to feel complete.
Alrighty, folks, remember… We’re approaching that season where the veil between worlds thins and we can periodically see visitors from a few different places pop in to ask a few important questions. And, given what has happened a few times in the past, it is important to make sure we’re all on the same page. What do we say when some sort of odd gatekeeping extradimensional creature scowls at you and asks if you are a god? You know the answer, so there is no need to belabor that any further. But, just saying “Yes!” isn’t going to cut it anymore. They know that we know that, now, too! So, you have to know what kind of god? What powers? Over which domain do you rule?These are the big questions and the road to divinity is a very important one. Our suggestion is to go with a group of gods who have a lot of experience and still know how to have a good time with the mortals. Off to Mount Olympus, then, to learn about the proper protocol, hierarchy, and your rights and responsibilities as a Greek Goddess. Spooked? Ha, don’t worry. The Greek Gods are quite casual about everything, so long as you don’t muddle up their own machinations.With that handled, it is time to don your divine garb of the Roman Goddess costume. You’ll be right at home with Jupiter and Apollo in this glorious ombré gradient, floor-length, sleeveless dress that blends from cream to teal from top to bottom. As lovely as that is, alone, the accents are what truly make these cloths majestic. A gold braid edged V-neck and O-rings at each shoulder are matched by the gold leaf headpiece, all of which make for a clear marker of your divinity. So, the new question: Of what are you a goddess? … That one might take a bit longer, so we suggest you pick wine.

I want to watch horse races, go for promenades, and attend balls at fancy pillared houses while wearing my fanciest hat and drinking all the mint juleps I want"? Honestly, same.

The Hundred Dollar Founding FatherBen Franklin was one pretty smart guy. He invented bifocals, edited a newspaper and got himself on the hundred dollar bill. Have you ever seen his journals? He liked to ask all the questions. How else do you wind up flying a kite with the intent of getting struck by lightning! Okay, we still think his whole "flying a kite in the middle of a thunderstorm" idea might not have been the best idea ever since that could have really turned out badly, but he's a genius, so who are we to argue? All of humanity is now in his debt. We wouldn't want to go back to living without electricity. How would we charge our phone?Of course, history is filled with amazing stories and Ben Franklin is part of many of those American history stories. That's why we like this costume so much. It's the perfect opportunity to learn about our rich history!Product DetailsThis costume makes your little history buff look just like the legendary figure that we know so well from our books and monuments. We can't guarantee that while wearing it, he'll be inventing the glass armonica like the real Benjamin Franklin, but he will look cooler than the other kids at the next American history pageant that your child is in, and we think that's just as important as the invention of the glass armonica. It's got the felt coat with attached vest and cuffs, all in drab tones that just say the 1700s. No costume from that era would be complete without a cravat, and this has one! The knicker pants go to the knees and fit easily with elastic.Ben Franklin Costume for BoysOkay, so he's going to learn all about history while wearing this classic costume, but whatever you do don't let him go out in the thunderstorm with that kite. We already have electricity. It's all good. He can just sit back and learn the glass armonica like all the other kids are doing these days (we assume).
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.

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!
As far as Halloween costume accessories go, hats can make or break your costume. Wearing a hat as part of your costume can be a risky choice if you’re going out. Over time, some hats can become uncomfortable or, if they don’t fit tight, can get knocked off your head easily. You don’t want to spend all night keeping track of your hat. If you’re thinking about some head wear for your costume make sure it’s something that adds significantly to the costume. Obviously, an Abraham Lincoln costume becomes more recognizable with a top hat, or a Charlie Chaplin look will be more complete with a bowler hat. In fact, a bowler hat would look great with a lot of costumes and, if you’re looking for one that will fit comfortably and stay on your head all night, all you need is this black mini bowler hat. This hat features a soft velvet exterior and fits perfectly on your head with the attached elastic string. Add a touch of class to your Halloween costume this year with this black mini bowler.

We guess you’re serious about taking gold in the costume competition championship, eh?Ever since you took over teaching Ancient Civ you’ve been wondering what your favorite historical era would truly be like.

You can invite Cleo to be your date and your rise to power will surely be great as you ascend the costume competition throne!
Flying High Once upon a time, the skies were empty of all but bird travelers. Horse-drawn buggies or huge sailing ships were the only way to get where you wanted to go. But then a pair of brothers with funny mustaches proved that people really could learn to fly, and then it was almost ineviatable that a plucky lady with plenty of courage and a love for the wide-open sky showed that women could fly just as well as men. She paved the way for many more to come! Product DetailsBreak boundaries and make your mark on aviation forever when you wear your exclusive Girl's Deluxe Amelia Earhart Toddler Costume!

Your little Earhart's journey, however, is no mystery: She'll collect lots of candy, have plenty of fun with friends, and look forward to the day when she can sit in the pilot's seat of her very own airplane.

Simple SolutionYour gal told you in no uncertain terms that for Halloween, she wants her costume to take her back to simpler times. So you got her a retro 50s poodle skirt costume.

THE ALL-FATHER'S SHIELDWhen you're destined to become the new king of the clans but have quite a few betrayers to deal with before getting there, things aren't always going to go especially smoothly.

To the modern eye, the ancient Greek pantheon might look a little silly decked out in those archaic robes. But when your to-do list includes managing the harvest, selectively meddling in the affairs of mortals, and getting back at Hades for slipping a whoopee cushion onto the Throne of Zeus, you need an outfit that offers plenty of comfort and a full range of motion. And nothing compares to this tried-and-true traditional look for inspiring devotion and culling favor!Just make sure your costume meets divine standards for craftsmanship and quality, like this Plus Size Olympic Goddess Costume. Because there's a pretty strict dress code on Mt. Olympus these days, thanks to the steady stream of mortals who think they can cut holes in a pillowcase, sneak up to the summit, and pretend they'd been around since the age of the Titans. You're not fooling anybody, guys! Not unless you have a really great outfit!And if you manage to join the ranks of the other great-looking humans who have successfully infiltrated the gods' inner circle, try not to go crazy with all of that power, okay? Because getting zapped by lightning or having frogs rain from the sky is not what we had in mind when we showed you this excellent costume. We just thought you might want to take this classic look to an upcoming party, or immerse yourself in some classical literature by slipping into some more appropriate attire. We really don't want to have to beg for mercy. Not again!
Breaking the RulesSociety shuns rule-breakers. They lock them up or run them out of town. Sometimes though, that's exactly what the world needs. A little bit of rule breaking. Just take a look at the tale of Robin Hood.The law labeled him an outlaw. The Sheriff of Nottingham wanted nothing more than to lock up poor Robin Hood and throw away the key. And if it were up to Prince John, Robin and his whole lot of Merry Men would be banished from the kingdom forever. The ordinary citizens of the kingdom saw it a little different though. They saw him as a hero! Robin saw the laws that hurting his friends and family, so he decided to valiantly rebel against the kingdom! He took his bow in hand and began doing a little bit of "wealth redistribution" in his land. That's one case where being a rule breaker was a good thing. If your child has a penchant for breaking the rules, then maybe it's time to focus that trait into something heroic!Design & DetailsYou can transform your child into the legendary bandit from the tales when you get this Robin Hood costume for kids! This exclusive outfit is inspired by Renaissance clothing and comes with a light green tunic, perfect for blending in while traversing Sherwood Forest.

Finally, the fingerless gloves and boot covers pull the whole look together!Robin and his Merry MenWhen you dress your child in this Robin Hood costume, your child may feel the need to steal from the rich and give to the poor! You might even feel the need to dress up as one of his Merry men to get in on the fun!
The Ultimate AnswerWe all get asked the question from time to time. 'What's your favorite animal?' We all naturally have a quality answer to that query (even if it might change a few times over the years). The dog is well known as humanity's best friend. Then you've got the cat who has clearly won the Internet. From aardvarks to zebras, there are so many adorable, strange, and wonderful critters in the sea, on the land, or in the air.But allow us to suggest that we expand the definition of 'animal' a bit and offer you an even better option. Legends speak of all sorts of amazing creatures but few are more inspiring than the Pegasus. Start with the noble beauty of the horse, taking note of its indomitable strength and a truly epic mane of hair. Now add the grace and aerodynamic ability of a bird, too!? (When you add in the fact that they can swim, too, you've got an all-terrain triple threat!)Design & DetailsIf the magical majesty of the winged horse is what you seek, you're going to love this Adult Heavenly Pegasus costume! This hooded jumpsuit was designed by our Made By Us team to help you live out your Greek Mythology costume dreams. Start by shaping the wings to your liking and get ready to soar thanks to the hook and loop patch. Next, step into the metallic knit cuffs, creating a shiny hoof-like illusion.Zip up the front for an easy fit and pull up the foam-backed hood to show off a faux fur mane and perky ears. The pearly velour fabric will have you feeling supernaturally shiny so all that is left is to practice your Pegasus prance! (Team up with a friend in a Hercules costume to really go the distance.)
Wash Your HandsWhen Florence Nightingale came on the medical scene during the Crimean War, more soldiers were passing away due to sickness than injury. Once soldiers entered the medical bay they were exposed to some seriously awful bugs. When the sharp-eyed, diplomatic Nightingale saw the conditions of the medical tents she wrote to the government to tell them to save the soldiers through hygiene. Under pressure, the government went to work improving ventilation and sewage treatment.In the meantime, Florence implemented handwashing rules and trained nurses in keeping sanitary conditions. Under her watchful eye and lantern light, the rate of survival in the hospitals went from fifty-one percent to an amazing ninety-eight percent. It's no wonder that, more than a hundred years later, we still remember her making her nightly rounds, lantern raised.Design & DetailsIf your child is a history buff, she's sure to appreciate this Florence Nightingale costume, designed by our in-house creative team. The black dress and apron are separate, letting your child dress up in either without the other. The apron slips over the head and ties at the back. The dress zips up the back and has a red cross band around one arm. Topped off with a ruffled cap, this costume would make the proper Florence Nightingale proud!For the WinWhile most well to do young ladies were expected to stay at home, Florence had a calling that she couldn't ignore. Her expectations for hygiene, patient care, and compassion elevated the skill of nursing and saved people all over the world! In fact, nurses still the Nightingale Pledge to this day! This costume can be completed with a lantern to represent Nightingale on her nightly routes, checking on patients as everyone else slept. Perfect for school projects, plays, and even an alternative Halloween costume, this look is a great way to celebrate an iconic hero of medicine!
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! For one, she was the first woman to be both the wife and the mother of a president. (Don’t worry, it wasn’t the same guy!) She also gave her husband tons of advice when it came to how to run the country. She was a champion of women’s education and spoke out against slavery. Of all the first ladies to dress up like for a costume party, we don’t think you could do much better than Abigail Adams!Product detailsThis exclusive Kid’s Abigail Adams Costume is sure to be a hit, whether you’re going to an inauguration or just a costume party. It looks just like a dress that a fashionable lady from the early 1800s would wear when she’s hosting a party at the White House.

The collar and sleeve cuffs are trimmed with lace, while there is elastic in the waist for a cinched look.
