He's a teenager who is also a ninja, and his ultimate goal is to be recognized in his village as the strongest of all ninjas. He longs to hold the title of Hokage, and fans of Naruto have been entertained every step of the way in his quest to reach his goal.

Naruto is one of the most popular manga series that have ever been created, and just in japan, it's sold almost 127 million copies. With such a strong following, it's no wonder that Naruto has been a popular choice for cosplay costumes all across the country at various cosplay events.

Whatever the Occasion Might Be, We Have a Costume for You

2013-04-01T04:33:00.001-07:00

It's a common misconception that costumes have to be reserved for big cosplay events, costume parties or Halloween. In fact, at Moon Costumes, we think there's never a bad time to incorporate a costume into your life. We can think of a few ways you can put your love of a good costume to use that you might not have thought of before.

Stuck Babysitting?

Whether you're employed as a nanny or you sometimes get stuck babysitting your niece on a Saturday night, a well-chosen costume can be the difference between boring and fun. If your babysitting charge has a favorite cartoon character, why not dress up as her hero one day as a surprise? You could even act out an entire little story together with you as the star. Mom and Dad would probably love to see a video of your creative production, too.

Adventurous Double Dates?

You can only go out to dinner and a movie so many times before it begins to get dull. Why not team up with another couple and wear one of our great couple’s costumes for your next night out? The four of you will have a great time, and if you're daring enough, you could even try going bowling or playing miniature golf dressed in your new costumes. You'll catch everyone's attention while you create amazing memories together.

Can you think of any more ways to creatively integrate costumes into your everyday life? At Moon Costumes, we love the art of dressing up and becoming someone else, even if it's only for a little while. Visit our online store to see our incredible collection!

Spend Less Than $130 for Your Next Cosplay Costume

2013-03-08T09:27:00.003-08:00

Some cosplayers scour the Internet looking for just the right costumes, and they end up paying too much for them. However, at Moon Costumes, we're delighted to be able to offer our customers a little more "bang for their buck" with our authentic cosplay costumes. If love cosplay, we encourage you to check out our selection and see for yourself!

Authenticity Is Important

It's important for your costume to be authentic when you attend cosplay events and parties. Take for example, our Naruto cosplay costume. Not only is the cloak hand-appliqued, but it also zips closed. This costume includes many accessories, which are essential for creating that authentic look you need. You'll find that our Naruto Deluxe Teen costume offers the same type of quality, as well as plenty of accessories. We agree with you that authenticity is an important factor in putting together a great costume, but we don't think authentic has to mean expensive.

Excellent Quality for Many Uses

Many of our customers have found such excellent quality in our cosplay costumes that they don't need to buy new ones constantly. It makes more sense to spend money on a costume that will suit you for a long time. A costume such as our Rurouni Kenshin costume will serve you well for a few years. While you might want to add to your costume wardrobe, you can be sure that this one and others like it will last.

If you're looking for a new cosplay costume at a great price, please visit our shop! You'll find just what you need, and you won't overpay for it.

History is full of great costumes take a look

2013-02-07T09:34:00.001-08:00

What we think of as "costumes" was once the accepted form of attire. As you glance back through history, each time period boasts a style all its own. Historical costumes have changed a lot through the years, however, all across the country, historical societies work hard to ensure that the beauty of these costumes is never forgotten.

The Huntington Historical Society

The Huntington Historical Society was founded in 1903. The costumes consist of items that have been collected over the past 100 years. Originally, the few items that were donated were purposed for display during Huntington's 250th anniversary celebration. The collection grew, and today, the community takes advantage of periodic exhibits sponsored by the Society that give people an excellent understanding of what life was like over a hundred years ago. The items range from hand-stitched pieces to older, everyday attire.

The Costume Society

The Costume Society, which is located in the United Kingdom, is an organization that was created for the sole purpose of promoting the continued study and preservation of both historic and contemporary dress. The organization offers frequent lectures and other events to encourage members to visit museums and private costume collections from various periods of history. For The Costume Society, keeping the love of costume alive is vital to understanding your heritage.

At Moon Costumes, we offer you a vast selection of historical costumes to choose from for your next event. Whether you're looking for a flapper costume to help you embrace your love of the 20's, or you like to think of yourself as a Greek Goddess, we have the perfect costume for you!

Upcoming Cosplay conventions for 2013

2013-02-04T09:55:00.002-08:00

It's a new year, and with it comes a brand new calendar filled with cosplay conventions that you're not going to want to miss out on. If you're a veteran cosplayer, or even if you've always wanted to try dressing up to attend a cosplay convention, 2013 promises to be a year that you'll never forget.

NashiCon 2013

One cosplay convention that's always a lot of fun for attendees is www.nashicon.com NashiCon, which will be held in April this year at the Columbia Metropolitan Convention Center. Last year, those who participated had an exciting time dressing up in authentic Japanese attire to celebrate Japanese culture. We're still waiting to hear what the theme for 2013 will be, but you can be sure that at Moon Costumes, we'll have the costumes you'll need for NashiCon, as well as any other cosplay conventions you plan on attending.

All About Anime

Anime is a major part of what makes cosplay conventions so much fun, and so important! Having the right costume when you attend is vital to ensuring that you're joining in on the festivities. Anime conventions are important because you only get a few times each year to join together with others like you, who love anime and want to show their feelings through their costumes. So, to make sure you celebrate properly, you've got to have the right cosplay costume.

So, what are your plans for cosplay conventions this year? At Moon Costumes, we have everything you need, from Assassin's Creed to Sailor Moon. Don't forget to pick up the right accessories to be sure you do your anime character proud!

It's a time when people celebrate by indulging in everything they'll be giving up for the season of Lent, leading up to Easter. Depending on where you live, Mardi Gras celebrations can extend for months. For example, in Mobile, Alabama, the festivities kick in during the month of November. There are countless social events and parades to attend, and the party continues up until Ash Wednesday. In other parts of the country, Mardi Gras is a three-day celebration leading up to Lent.

Regardless of what the customs are where you live, it's never too late to have a party celebrating Mardi Gras. At Moon Costumes, we have just what you need to have a great Mardi Gras party.

Many fans of anime don't realize that the anime culture didn't begin with shows like Pokemon. Japanese anime actually started early in the 20th century. In fact, the very first anime production was a two-minute clip that featured a samurai testing out a new sword on his target. He ended up being defeated.

Rise of the Anime Culture

Anime is an art form all its own. It has been very instrumental in exposing people to Japanese culture. Video games and television shows like Pokemon and Dragonball started in the 1990's, but have grown in popularity, encouraging other anime producers to join in on the anime craze. It continues to grow and gain followers.

In our recent cosplay update we added updated costumes for Ezio, Ezio Auditore Da Firenze, Harlequin and Hellequin.

The new Revelations Ezio cosplay is one of the finest outfits we have created. We started by using heavy duty materials that are both durable and study. The costume was then broken down into many different elements, which are all layered on top of each other to create a realistic, high quality custom look.

It consists of a jacket, hood, shoulder armor, multiple belts, sashes, weapon pouches, boot covers, and attached bracers. We are sure this will meet the highest expectations and last through many conventions or gatherings.
