Medieval Costumes! Going Back In Time For One Knight

Medieval Costumes! Going Back In Time For One Knight

Medieval costumes are a popular choice for many of the renaissance lovers out there that enjoy the mystery, sorcery, and glamour of that unique era!

Becoming your favorite fantasy character is exciting when wearing a medieval costume, and when you slip one on, you will take yourself back in time when the infamous Black Knight battled gothic pirates to protect their King and Queens throne, and experience all the medieval renaissance festivities on Halloween night.

Medieval clothing took on a unique fashion of it's own, and now with a variety of great costumes available with quality authentic styles, you can easily become the Wizard that casts many spells, or Maid Marian that wins the hearts of the Renaissance Noble Men!

If being a Princess is not your castle in the sky, and you rather take the wild and crazy dungeon route, then there are many costume variations of the historical Wench. The choices are endless, and you can become a beautiful Tavern Wench with a long flowing velvet dress with lace-up corset and mop hat, or the exotic Gothic Slayer with a luxurious long flowing robe that expresses the mystery and beauty in you.

No matter which medieval fashion dress you choose, Prince Charming, Regal King, and the Royal Knight will definitely be closely following your trail. For the bad boy, the Medieval times have created the elite and also the nasty, and if you're one to sway more to the dark side, then select the well known character costume the Executioner!

It comes with a strap trimmed tunic, hood with cowl, fingerless gloves, and boot tops all trimmed with studs, plus a belt and battle axe, or you can easily become the swashbuckling renaissance pirate with the frill white shirt, pants and waist sash. Add an eye patch, and sword, and you will be enjoying Halloween night chasing the beautiful Wench's to walk your plank.

For all the men and women that love to express themselves in medieval century clothing, this Halloween you will be pleased to know that many medieval items are still available, with great costume accessories to go with your choice of outfit. However, like we speak of the medieval days that have come and gone, if you wait too long to buy your favorite Halloween Renaissance costume, they soon will also be history!

A Taste of Medieval History for Your Costume Party

A Taste of Medieval History for Your Costume Party

Put a touch of the long distant past into your party with a Medieval theme. Everyone thinks of the Medieval period as one full of knights in shining armor rescuing damsels in distress. It’s not only a taste of history when you host a medieval party, but you give your guests an opportunity to see things they may not have seen, and maybe even join in the fun.

Have you ever had dreams of being rescued by a knight? Use the Medieval party as a chance to realize a dream, and let your significant other play the part of the night who rescues you from danger. Does it sound silly? Of course it does, but aren’t parties supposed to be fun? So do what you want with your party, and let your guests do accordingly.

This is the 21st century, so where are you going to finish Medieval wear? You can find it at any stores that sell costumes, and even if you aren’t having your party around Halloween, there are still many costume stores open – after all, schools and theatres have stage productions that require costumes, and not everyone does custom-made costumes. You may have to search a little bit, but you can fight a costume that is fitting for the medieval period. If you want to be really creative with your party, you may even find a replica of a horse or find a couple of friends who are willing to play the part of the horse and make your “rescue” more authentic.

Other ideas for your party include treasure hunts and scavenger hunts that are based on items from the period, available in stores that specialize in theme parties. If time permits, you may choose to conduct in depth research and serve food, drinks, and entertainment that are in tune with the Medieval period in history.
