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!
Historical SpotlightsIn our experience, some of the best-looking costumes get overlooked just because they were inspired by a historical era that doesn’t lend itself to outfits with a lot of bells and whistles. But this Adult Green Renaissance Lady Costume is the rare exception, because it goes hand-in-hand with one of the best-known tunes in English folk music! So just for fun, we thought we’d toss in a few bars of our own interpretation: Alas, good lady, you’re headed wrong If you think you can purchase theeA finer set of Renaissance dudsThan this gown in the color green. Green, green is on the sleeves, It’s on the bodice, o’er the knees,It’s in the grass, it’s in the trees,Now you can look green like these!Can’t you just hear the trill of recorders and the idle strumming of lutes? Well, we can—but we have a tendency to get a little too immersed in these kinds of things. If that’s even possible!Product DetailsEither way, we think this is the perfect outfit for a costume party or Ren Faire, especially if you want to get in the olde-fashioned spirit without fussing about authenticity. This elegant combo includes a flowing dress in rich green velour with gilded accents befitting a noblewoman, and a flowery headband to match. With a little music from the period and a quaint pair of dancing shoes, it’ll be a real challenge not to cut a caper or two!
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!

If you're planning a toga party, historical accuracy may not be on your priority list. So you maybe don't care that historical purists would insist that there was never any such thing as a Greek toga or a women's toga or a child's toga. And this Women's Grecian Dress ISN'T a toga. If you ARE interested in historical accuracy, this costume is actually a fairly accurate representation of what a Greek woman would have worn. The only difference is that an ancient version would have been ankle-length instead of above-the-knee. But the shape, the draping and the geometric trim are realistic. For a toga, party, however, perhaps you only care that it's cute--which it is!

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.

Is your child finally ready to join the raiding party? Is he ready to charge into battle, like the brave little Viking warrior that he is? Are you ready to put a little battle axe in his hands and send him into battle? Well, cool your jets there! Before you can send your little marauder off into the world of combat, you might want to equip him with the right look. He needs some armor, specifically a helmet and no ordinary helmet will do! Yes, he needs a majestic looking helm with horns and plenty of fur. That ought to scare his enemies on the battlefield. He needs this horned Viking helmet!This kids Viking helmet might not be entirely historically accurate, since our history experts tell us that Vikings didn’t wear horns on their heads. They also tell us that their helmets were made out of heavy metals. Ours is made out of foam, which is much easier to lug around than metal and the stuffed horns are made out of soft material, so no animals were harmed in the making of this helmet. So really, this helmet is much better than the actual Viking helmets from the days of old!
Give Me Liberty!Not all revolutionaries were guys in curly wigs and knee breeches. Some were the ones who knew that even though the war with England was over, the battle for women's rights still had to be fought. Susan B. Anthony was one of those trailblazers who knew that there would be no true liberty until women were given the same level of respect, the same opportunites for work, and the same right to join in cultural and political adventures as men. Product DetailsThis exclusive Women's Susan B. Anthony is perfect for courageous women of any generation who know how to stand up for what they believe in. The floor-length black polyester dress will look amazing whether you're sweeping down the street as part of a peaceful protest or standing in front of a podium giving a rousing speech. Black lace ruffles on the full-length sleeves add an elegant touch and complement the white ruffles on the bodice inset and wrist cuffs. A zipper down the back makes this outfit much easier to get into than the millions of buttons that were typical of that era. (You're welcome.) A metal pendant is attached to the white collar. All you need is a comfortable pair of shoes. Your fearless campaigning will have you on your feet a lot! Who Run the World? They might have lived a few generations apart, but we think that Susan and Beyonce would have gotten along great! Honor an amazing civil rights activist with an equally amazing costume.
Find Your FatherThere are a lot of different ways to understand and celebrate history. Obviously, our favorite is a good old-fashioned time travel adventure. Whether you're hopping into a phone booth, a 1980s sports car, or listening to a soundtrack that bends the very cosmos, it is a pretty surefire way to get in contact with some famous, historical figures. Some might think that deciding who to meet is the toughie. But, the real question is what you're going to do once you find them!Imagine you're face to face with Alexander Hamilton, for example. This guy knew a ton and helped to invent a bunch more. He was a military commander, a banker, lawyer, statesmen, and he knew enough about economics to help create the American financial system. Secretary of the Treasury was a natural next stop. Plus, there are a few dramatic moments we wouldn't mind learning more about. (Especially since getting tickets to the Broadway show is impossible!)Design & DetailsDon't wait for your tickets to finally show up. Bring your Hamilton moments to life right away with our Alexander Hamilton costume. This is a Made by Us costume brought to you direct from our in-house design team. The ensemble includes a blue velvet jacket with white panels and gold buttons. The pants have elastic at the back and go great with the included boot tops.

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.

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!
Damsel of DistressSee the misty peak of dragon mountain, yonder? They say there's a maiden who's trapped by the wretched beast up there. She weeps day and night, waiting for a prince to save her. Yeah, no. Not this maiden you see here. She's not in distress, she causes distress. She'd like to watch you try to stick her in a high tower somewhere. It would give her a reason to exercise her sword hand.The Medieval times were not a good era for ladies and maidens alike. They were either expected to stay inside, sew, and keep quiet or they were getting kidnapped and trapped in one way or another. Snow White was choked by an apple. Sleeping Beauty was thrown into a coma. And when they were freed they were expected to commit to their rescuer for the rest of their lives. That doesn't sound great. Rewrite history and become the gallant heroine with this tough yet gorgeous armored gown!Product Details & DesignAre you ready to transform into a valiant and fashionable warrior? You'll love the exclusive look that our designers put together. This Made-By-Us costume has detailed, swirling elements as well as tough looking armor throughout the look. You'll love the metallic waist detail that matches the gauntlets, chest, and shoulder detail. The skirt is framed with swirling elements along the hem, complimenting the center stripe. It's My Party I can Battle-Cry If I Want ToOr you ready to prove that not all ladies are going to stay in waiting? Go ahead and slay that dragon yourself. That means you get to keep one hundred percent of the lizard's loot. That's a pretty good deal. And hey, if you run into one of the knights that are headed up to save yonder fair maiden, you can let him tag along on the way back down the mountain. After all, there might be a few dangers on the way back!

A Seat at the Round TableGuinevere wasn't only the Queen of Camelot, she was also the queen of interior design. Before she came along, all meeting halls only had long tables where people had to shout battle plans and fighting ideas from one end to the other. The long table that Guinevere gifted to her husband, Arthur, changed meetings up for good. The new design merged aesthetics and meeting logistics and officially opened the way for her to remodel the Camelot castle.As we all know, Camelot ended up being one of the raddest castles of the time. She brightened up the cold, dark stone walls with sprigs of dried flowers and copper accented sconces. Velvet curtains made the bedrooms for all the twenty-five knights of the round table warm and cozy in the winter months. Sometimes people even give her credit for making house plants a thing. It's said she hung Maiden's Hair ferns from the rafters to filter the somewhat filthy Medieval air. Way to go, Gwen!Product DetailsYou'll feel right at home among the cozy tapestries and lush curtains of Camelot when you put on this lovely Guinevere gown. The base fabric is soft with a light sheen. Luxurious gold-trimmed long sleeves fall from the fitted forearms of this ensemble. The wide neckline is accented with a printed floral design while the v-waistline is accented with metallic embroidered trim that falls down the front of the skirt. The look is topped off with a golden crown sporting jewels that match the yellow flowers printed on the bodice. Order in the CourtWith a queen like you around, we're sure all of Arthur's knights are sure to be on their best behavior. No jousting in swordplay in your halls, that's for sure! So whether you're headed to a feast at your local Renaissance Fair, you're in a play, or simply want to look extra dignified for Halloween, you'll slip into the royal role with regal ease in this gorgeous ensemble.

But they might see it differently. They might be on a legendary quest.

Quoth the Raven, 'Some Coiffure!' Once upon a Halloweeny, while we gandered weak and weary, at our hairstyle (sad and dreary) upon the mirror of our door, there we wondered a simple query, one that got us rather cheery: "Could we make our hair do more!?" The first step was to get out of that rhythmic pattern of Edgar Allan Poe's spectacular style. It's pretty tough coming up with stellar looks while you're stuck in the mindset of a haunting song. It did, however, give us some solid inspiration for ways to help you access your inner poet.

We Can Do It! It was the 1940s and America was deep into the second War to End All Wars. With so many men shipping overseas to join the fight, business owners were starting to get worried.

Queen of KattegatSome queens are known for sitting on a comfy throne. They bark orders and they live lavish lives, indulging in their vices, while their people do all of the queen's dirty work.

Beyond the BookYou're absolutely sure that your gal understands the importance of paying attention in history class. She wouldn't want to miss out on all kinds of really cool information, like how powerful a lady Harriet Tubman was! It’s a good thing she's to be ahead of the curve on this one; she is actually an all-out history buff! She spends every family dinner quizzing her siblings on significant historical facts. Where other kids have their walls covered in posters of bands and teen idols, she has hung historical maps of the United States and framed pictures of her favorite formative figures. So she knows all about how important Harriet Tubman was; we don’t even have to tell her! She is a true American hero, and now your gal can show off her passion for history and try to emulate the bravery and integrity of her favorite American in this Girl’s Harriet Tubman Costume.Product DetailsShe can feel like top of the class and a true class act in this period-specific, black button-up peplum dress.

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!
Under the Sea EdictsIt's your first day as Neptune, ruler of the seas. What's on your agenda? Are you sending armies of stinging jellyfish to punish tourists that let their wrappers and cans blow into the ocean while they laze on the beach? Have you decided to start a cross-species synchronized swimming competition? Or perhaps you simply want to explore the deep-sea terrain in your underwater chariot tugged by a million tiny sea horses. Now that we think about it, maybe you should upgrade your transportation. Sea horses are not an efficient means of travel. Whatever your royal decrees might be, you'll have the authority to make them so when you're wearing this regal King Neptune wig and beard set. Everyone knows that sea creatures don't respect a man without a beard!Design & DetailsThis brilliantly white wig and beard set will make you stand out as a god among men or sea creatures. The shaggy look is inspired by ancient Roman artwork, with face-framing shag and a dignified, solid-looking beard. The beard straps to your face with an elastic band. A hole for the mouth allows you to speak clearly, which is a good thing because sound does strange things under the sea!
Navigating the UnderworldThe Egyptian underworld is a complicated place. Spirits that passed through would have to navigate all sorts of obstacles including strange creatures, gatekeepers, and a total of 42 divine judges. Smart souls would study the book of the dead to plead their case with the right terms in order to convince the judges to overlook their earthly wrongdoings. After that intimidating ordeal, the souls would then go on to get their hearts weighed against the feather of truth. If all that went well, the souls would be welcomed into the afterlife by Osiris. Of course, only royalty went through this process with Anubis by their side. So, this year, if you're heading to the Egyptian underworld as a mummy, make sure you're treated like a king and bring this Anubis staff with you. A little swagger goes a long way in the realm of the dead!Product DetailsPerfect for a range of ancient Egyptian costumes, this Anubis staff is molded with all sorts of eerie details.

Have you ever wanted to be the President of the United States? It is a thought that many of us have had from time to time and one that, certainly, our parents have considered for us as they proclaim that we had the ability to become anything that we set our minds towards. The Presidency seems to always be that highest pinnacle, the crowning achievement. Then again, some can look at high public offices and wince a bit, pointing at a number that have left a number of us wanting and a few others aghast as we’re trying to figure how they managed any votes! And, even if you think you can handle the job, campaigning is such a pain in the rear.But, there are much easier ways to become the President without having to run around the whole country, talking yourself up and kissing every baby until you’ve managed to win enough votes—and we’re not talking about voter fraud, either! You can just transform yourself into a President that everyone already recognizes with this Ronald Reagan mask. Transmogrify with this full molded latex mask and get ready to yell “Reagan Smash!” as you topple your opponents as one of the most heavy hitting Presidents of them all. But, a warning: remember that Reagan masks usually have a different meaning when you go to banks, so we don’t recommend that.

Looks like you’re on the right track! Full steam ahead into Halloween.
What makes a knight truly evil? Well, there are a lot of things he can do. An evil knight doesn’t rescue fair maidens from vile dragons. Instead he rescues vile maidens from fair dragons. It’s a lot easier to do, and a lot more rewarding too, if you catch our drift. When an evil knight goes to the local tavern, he never tips the ale wench more than 10%. And do you know those people who take steaks from the meat department and leave them in unrefrigerated areas at the grocery store? They’re evil knights, all of them. We know so.But you can’t be an evil knight without looking the part. We’re talking black-on-black clothing, hooded robes, and skulls on everything.Also, evil knights never wear white before labor day. We personally think that last part is going to far, but we don’t want to say anything because we’re thoroughly happy not being impaled by six foot long claymores.If you’re looking for a totally metal costume, something that really says “none shall pass,” then you’ve come to the right place. Our Evil Knight Costume has the tunic, gloves, cape, and belt you need to let do-gooders know their days are numbered. So pledge your allegiance to a dark wizard, a netherworld demon, or just your plain old nasty self and get out there and start terrorizing the land!

#WhatisaHastag?We know. It sounds pretty crazy, but girls in the colonial age didn't have the internet or social media. Kids these days are spoiled with instant information. You can look up anything at any moment and you can show friends your brand new pictures with just the simple touch of a touch-screen. Back then, the humble hashtag symbol looked a lot different and it was used in certain bookkeeping practices as a shorthand mark denoting a number! And they spent most of their time churning butter and doing chores around the farm.It was a tough, technology-free life, which is why we're quite thankful that we live in today's society! But it's always nice to look back at the tough work that the colonial settlers had to endure to give us a little more appreciation for how far we've come!Design & DetailsThis simple Girl's Prairie Dress Costume harkens back to the days of early midwest settlers in America. The costume starts with a one-piece dress that has a blouse-style top and an attached skirt around the waist. The skirt has a blue, floral pattern all over and the top has navy blue accents around the waist, sleeves, and collar. The dress fits with a zipper in back, making it easy to change into the historical look. The dress also has decorative buttons in the front. To complete the outfit, the dress also comes with an antique, gold-colored metal cameo that pins to the neck of the dress. When your child has it on, she'll be whisked bask in time!Shutting Down the Wi-FiTell your child to put that device away, shut down the Wi-Fi, and transport her back to a simpler time! With this Kid's Prairie Girl Costume, your little one will feel like a settler from the 1800s!
Going ClubbingAgma is one of the most popular cavewomen in the cliffs. She knows how to make the best mammoth stew. She tells the best hunting stories. Somehow she made the dangerous incident with a cave hyena that happened last month sound pretty funny and was asked to retell it around the fire three nights in a row. So when it came to caveman prom, Agma had a lot of invites. Thog brought her a bouquet of cabbage flowers. Zeb brought her a rabbit skin purse. And Borg gave her a brand new strand of polished rocks.Details & DesignThis wide bone hair clip is Made by Us. The metal clip is secure with small teeth to keep it in place. The long bone will stand out from your hairdo while also being lightweight to keep you comfortable and flashy.Rock and RollThere's a reason Agma is popular. She knew she'd have more fun if she went with the rest of her cavewoman friends. That way, all three cave fellas could have a dance! All Agma really needed to decide on was if she wanted to wear her granite headband or her brand new mammoth bone clip. Not a hard choice at all, if you ask us!

Why, you give them exactly what they want pardner, 'cept we reckon you give it to them with a little more attitude. We reckon you ought to serve those rowdy varmints a taste of surly with that whiskey.It takes a particular type of hombre to serve the rough and tumble cowboy types of the Wild West. Those boys have spent a whole day riding horses, roping cattle and protecting the ranch from bandits, so the only way to serve them is with an attitude and look as rough as their own countenance.

Got Moxie?It takes a lot of moxie to run a saloon in the Wild West. If those old spaghetti western movies have taught us anything, it’s that you never know what kind of character is going to walk through the door to order a drink. Will it be dashing, heroic cowboy, or will it be some kind of villainous thug that needs to be taught a lesson? If you plan on owning the saloon, then you’d better know how to deal with both kinds of characters and you’d definitely better be dressed for success in the old west! After all, you can’t always count on the sheriff to solve your problems and you’re not the kind of girl who’s going to take any guff from rowdy cowboys!Yes, you need attitude and style if you want to keep all those rowdy cowboys in check.

Not All Heroes Wear CapesGive your child the chance to dress up like her favorite NASA hero, Katherine Johnson! The contributions of this American hero led to the first successful NASA spaceflight, and every journey into space since. She was one of the first Black women to work as a NASA scientist, and refused to listen to anyone who told her otherwise. Without her brilliant mind, we might still have two feet planted on the ground. Forget Superman or Wonder Woman. Katherine Johnson's the real hero.Product DetailsThis costume comes with all the pieces needed to make your kid feel like they're walking into their first day at NASA in the 1960s. It comes with a collared heathered A-line red dress, black belt, and name badge with metal lanyard (with Ms. Johnson's actual picture on the front!) It's a dress of the times while looking fresh and updated (because we all know fashion is circuitous.) Let your kid add shoes that make them feel smart and confident (whether those are power flats or a pair or Chucks!) and a necklace if they want, because a little jewelry never hurt anyone. You might even catch them carrying their math book around!The dress is polyester and pulls on over the head. A hook and loop fastener on the back of the collar makes it easy to slip on. The dress has an elastic waistband too, to add a tapered look. But the elastic won't show under the faux leather belt, which also opens and closes with hook and loop fasteners.Fly Me to the MoonYour kid will feel like they're up for any job when they don this costume. They'll want to wear it year-round--there's no better good-luck charm to wear during an important math test! It's cute enough for every day but remarkable enough to make a standout Halloween costume.
These Old World Sandals look like something that your grandpa's grandpa would have worn. Back in the day, Socrates would walk the streets of Athens wearing something like these. But, we’re not sure you’ve heard: old-school is IN. Young people all over Brooklyn want to wear what your grandpa’s grandpa wore. If Noah used to kick back on the ark wearing a pair of these on those particularly hot days on the ocean, then that’s what you’ll see in Williamsburg on a hot day. It’s called being a hipster. Unless, you also may need these sandals to complete your Halloween look. Then it’s called smart shopping. Either way, we’re not judging. Pick up this strappy pair to accompany your toga to Greenpoint on Halloween eve, then wear them to brunch in Park Slope all summer long!
Lightning: A Way of LifeWouldn’t life be easier if you could just solve all of your problems with lightning bolts? Rush hour traffic in your way? Just shoot a lightning bolt at those cars. House centipede crawling around in the basement? Hit it with a lightning bolt. Your phone ran out of juice? Give it a good zap with your lightning bolt. Microwave on the fritz? Just blast your frozen dinner with a lightning bolt!That’s how Zeus lives, every single day. He’s the head honcho of the pantheon of Greek gods. He doesn’t need to mess around with any half-measures and pointless dialogue to solve all of life's troubles. He just shoots a darn lightning bolt at them and all of his problems go away. What a life! Us mere mortals need to live a much more complicated life, but perhaps you can get a small taste of what it’s like to be Zeus by wearing this exclusive costume.Design & DetailsBased on the mighty Greek god, this men’s Zeus costume makes you look like an all-powerful deity. The white tunic top is reminiscent of the garb worn by ancient Greeks. It even has gold accents along the bottom for a truly regal look. The belt has gold designs on it and matches the gold accents on the tunic. The drape is a shimmering gold color and can be tucked into the belt. A pair of gold gauntlets fit around the wrists, but the true coup de grace of this outfit is the crown, which will sit atop your head to make you feel like the king of all Greek gods!Lightning Doesn't Solve Every ProblemThis Zeus costume won’t actually give you the power to shoot lightning bolts at your problems. It will, however, help you feel like one mighty being. Just make sure you behave while wearing this outfit. Queen Hera will have her eye on you! Her wrath is one problem that even Zeus' lightning bolts can't solve.
