Description

Ancient Egypt was the land of the pharaohs, the ancient dynasties of kings and rulers who presided over the Upper and Lower Nile kingdoms. An intellectual, yet superstitious lot (like most of the ancient world), the pharaohs had elaborate rituals of burial to ensure their immortality involving massive structures known as the pyramids.

Pharoahs -- both living and dead (or undead) -- are always a popular costuming choice! They can be regal and fiercely commanding of attention or even frightening in a pseudo-mummified state. For a kingly look that strikes awe into your subjects, there are several Pharaoh costumes with ornate gold headdresses, belts, cuffs, and matching faux-jeweled collars accompanied by simple the simple, royal shift worn by these ancient kings in the warm (and completely un-air conditioned!) climate of ancient Egypt. Depending on your preference, the costumes come in a variety of colors, with either a long or short shift to suit your royal vision. Accessorize with your own pair of jeweled or golden lace-up sandals and a Pharaoh's staff or the ever-popular choice of a crook and flail, the preferred symbol of egyptian royalty!
