Circu History & Costumes

Don't wait for the circus to roll into town on its own! Drum up some big-top fun with a Circus-themed party and costumes! Head up the party as the Ring Master -- or Mistress of Ceremonies with a fitted red jacket, top hat, and whip.
The possibilities for costumes with a Circus theme are virtually endless! Whether you want to go for humor, glamour, or get in touch with your animal side, there's something to suit you! Get laughs as a classic clown with a Bozo wig, oversized shoes, clown makeup and a red nose… Or, for a non-traditional funny look, dress up as a Circus Fat Lady or a Bearded Lady for a sidesplitting sideshow costume!

Or, dress as the animal attractions in a circus as a lion, tiger, or elephant. In a range of sizes and styles from traditional, plush mascot-type costumes with oversized mask heads or a sexy, clingy ladies version, there are a number of options to choose from!
