Adult Princess Warrior Costume

In an era where chivalry is almost dead, it's time for us women to take matters into out own hands and emulate the noble knights of old! Even if it's just for Halloween. This post is going to be looking at my top five sexy medieval knight costumes available online so you don't have to go trudging through reams of material to fin what you want. Let's get started...

At the top of the list, and the top of this page, is one for all of you mini-dress fans who want to show off your confidence and a bit of leg this trick-or-treating season. I love the variety of materials that it boasts - with shiny skin tight material for the main dress, chainmail style accents and sweet mesh for the sleeves, this is one eye-catching costume. Each set includes the dress and matching hood: you can find the matching silver gauntlets here, and the shield she is holding is available here.

If you are looking for a more traditional full plate-mail look without too much bulk, you may like the cool Princess Warrior costume featured on the right, loosely based on the look from Snow White and the Huntsman. Each set of this amazing piece comes with the armored tunic and leggings. If you like that tree-themed shield, you can find that here.

Lady Knight Adult Costume

Above is a costume I've had my eye on for quite a while - it's technically a 'Joan of Arc' costume but works equally when for a more generic knightly look. It is both conservative and sexy, with a gorgeous velvet style skirt with a tantalising split and a simply beautiful plate-mail style bodice. In my opinion, it really combines the best of both worlds. You can find the sword seen in the picture separately here.

But anyway, back to the mini-dresses! On the left is another cute and sexy mini-dress, this time with more of a chainmail look. Each set comes with the dress, a body stocking and the matching belt.

Last but not least, if you want a more casual and unusual look, you might like the Be Wicked Sexy Templar costume on the right. With a cool chainmail style tops and some sexy red short-shorts, this is a great costume for dance parties and even use in casual wear. 

So there you have it! Those were my top five medieval knight costumes for women this Halloween season. I hope you found on that is perfect for you and a have a lot of fun trick-or-treating.

If you want a costume that is especially dainty, then take a look at the elegant and feminine baby blue costume on the left.

Each of these costumes (and the ones below!) would definitely benefit from you picking up a petticoat to go under the skirt. Here is a great one for you to check out. This will give the skirt lift and volume which will accentuate your hips. Petticoats will also grant the costume a more authentic theme, as they were very common in women's outfits back in the day.
