Roman Costumes

Whether your little girl hopes to ring in Halloween parading around the Colosseum as an admired empress or she hopes to trick-or-treat atop Mt. Olympus as a Greek Goddess, she can feel like the crme de la crme of the ancient world with nothing more than a quick and simple costume change.

How magical! This elegant and ethereal Ancient Roman Empress Costume is an ideal look for your resident young historian and lover of all of lifes finer things.

She already spends hours a day pouring over accounts of ancient events, watching documentaries from bygone eras, brushing up on her Greek mythology, and then quizzing you on it (Do you know the Greek god of blacksmiths, sculptors, fire, and volcanoes? We didnt think so) But you also may not know that the female figures of ancient times were not all beauty and no brains--nope.

These wives of emperors, women of status, and of course, the goddesses, were all powerful people in their own right--just like your little girl! So it's high time to crown her the goddess of Halloween and empress of your living room, letting her live out her destiny in this pretty costume.

The pink and gold accents of this dress and headband will tickle her fancy and have her feeling like Greek divinity faster than she can say "Aphrodite." This costume is perfect for Halloween and imaginative play--and she may even look forward to going to the Roman baths to scrub up at the end of the night!

The Coliseum was home to the greatest warriors in all of history, we are, of course, talking about the mighty gladiators. You dont just become one of these phenomenal fighting sensations overnight.

No, no, no, you need years of training, nearly a lifetime! So it may be too late for you to join the ranks of the elite but not for your little bundle of joy.

Grab this Infant Gladiator Costume and let the training begin! Once you dress your little one up in this adorable costume he will not only look as cute as a button but as ready for battle as the greats.

This costume comes with a jumpsuit designed to look like some fierce warrior attire. On the breastplate lies the emblem of the lion, one of the mightiest beasts in the world.

It is designed this way because we know your little gladiator will have the strength and the heart of this big jungle cat on the battlefield! Along with this awesome one piece, this costume set also includes the gauntlets and the headpiece you see depicted on our model.

If you want to take things a bit further then grab your baby a pair of Roman inspired sandals and maybe even a foam sword and shield set! Once he is fully equipped, his training can commence and you can set your kiddo on course to being the greatest gladiator the world has ever seen.

Before you know it you'll be receiving messages from Roman officials cordially inviting you and your youngster to fight in the actual Coliseum!

Win the crowd. Win your freedom.

Kids are odd little creatures. They like silly things like SpongeBob SquarePants.

And Masha and the Bear, that Russian cartoon on Netflix. But then they also like kind of gross stuff.

And we don't just mean slugs, frogs, and mud pies. No, we mean the violent kind of gross stuff.

Your kid seems to have a pretty high tolerance for anything gory. Heck, you remember being his age, and not getting squeamish during the original My Bloody Valentine, and Clash of the Titans.

Now, he likes to watch stuff like that. He likes to pretend he is a gladiator fighting in the arena.

Or one of King Leonidas' brave Spartans. You wish he were into something a little safer than sword fighting.

Like LEGOs. But you can't stop him from being interested in the Gladiators.

In fact, letting him dress up in this Kid's Gladiator Costume might be just the thing to get it out of his system. Letting him fight his friends might help him move onto other interests.

Either that, or he will become the best sword fighter on the block. Challenging all the kids to gladiatorial combat.

Your back yard might become a miniature arena. Don't forget to grab a Gladiator Sword and Shield when you order this costume.

Every Gladiator worth his salt should have a good sword to win the crowd with. Then maybe he will go back to watching SpongeBob.

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!

Do you ever put down your history book and just role your eyes. All those books talk about is the remarkable achievements of men.

While Marcus Aurelius and Augustus have plenty of words of wisdom attributed to them they most likely had someone write their speeches for them like the politicians of today. The woman of the era might not have had their words written on parchment butwe know they were the ones holding the chariot reigns.

We're sure glad women are allowed to speak in the senate these days, it wasn't allowed in Rome except once, when a lady named Hortensia made a speech to lower taxes for Rome's richest women.Imagine if we taxed women and men differently these days!

While men weretaking baths, having toga parties, and watching people wrestle, the ladies were raising the future emperors, holding the purse strings, andwhispering into the ears ofpoliticians to make their vision of the country they wanted to live in a reality. For people that weren't allowed to speakpublicly, vote, or even own their last names these ladiesruled pretty hard.

Do you want to make your way up the social ladder of Roman society? No?

We get it, it's a real pain and pretty fatal actually,definitelynot worth it in today's society.Well, whether you're dressing up for Halloween or showing Bacchus's buddies who's boss at that toga party, this ensemble will give you that regal look you're going for.

The floorlength off-white skirt and black sparkly top would make any Roman noble proud. With theshow-stoppingpurple cape attached to golden wrist cuffs you'll have the authority to put that golden-sandaledfoot down, no more will the ladies of the toga party be taxed for those oily men wrestling in the back yard!

Who invited those guys anyway?
