You probably don't have a clear costume idea regarding this upcoming Halloween. Why would you? It's still several months away. Most folks don't pick out a get-up until the last minute. And by the last minute, I mean that literally for some. My teenage daughter practically waits until trick-or-treators are at our doorstep. Now that's too late. You'll never find the right costume at that point. Anyway, since Halloween is not quite upon us just yet, I'd like to make a suggestion. Why not go as a knight? There is a wide array of medieval clothing available now days and I never see people taking advantage of it.
Things were different in those times. The medieval era was filled with violence, weapons, wars and chaos. But let's not forget it was also loaded with crazy cool attire, romance and kings. How cool would it be to show up at your next Halloween costume party in full battle armor? Guys you should really think about this. The ladies love a great warrior who wields a sword and sports chain-mail across his torso. You would be the highlight of the bash. Trust me when I say that no one will show up in medieval clothing. I convinced my wife to wear and old-fashioned Juliet dress to a Halloween party a couple years back. She was the most beautiful woman there, and you'd better believe the other women were inquiring about her cool attire. They wanted to know where she found it and what it cost. Well, I can let you in on a little secret. I discovered this dashing medieval clothing online. Although some outfits are not too pricey, this wasn't one of them. The gown cost me 110 bucks. Maybe that's not a lot as far as authentic dresses are concerned, but you can see why I thought it was high for a costume she's probably going to wear only once. Lucky for me she kept it, and plans to wear it again in the future to costume parties. Naturally ones with different people.

... there is nothing more irritating to a feminist than the average “Woman’s Page” of a newspaper, with its out-dated assumption that all women have a common trade interest in the household arts, and a common leisure interest in clothes and the doings of “high society.” Women’s interests to-day are as wide as the world.

You can find any and all medieval clothing and weaponry on the web now. This makes it really cool shopping for Halloween night and various other costume occasions. I recommend the next time you're in the market for some hard-to-find attire, you try cyberspace first.

Fashion Designer
By Ivan Ingram
When most people think of students in fashion design schools, they assume that we are all filthy rich children of suburban America who have been indulging in all the excesses of fashion couture since we first turned 13. Although there are some students that definitely fit the profile, for most of us this couldn't be further from the truth....
