Battenberg Lace Fan, Fascinator- Mini Tophat, Swirl Skirt -- all the items are of excellent quality. I have ordered and received a Victorian blouse, too. The quality is excellent,all the items are beautiful. I have and will continue to highly recommend this site!

Great skirt, true to the picture. My only issue is I can't figure out how to duplicate the look in the picture with the sinching of one side. My skirt does not seem to be able to sinch that high.

The leather scabbard looks fantastic with my Henry rifle. I can't wait to take this to the range and see the reaction of my fellow shooters. I would recommend this item to anyone who wants to give their rifle a cool 'look'. I am one happy customer.

We ordered a gun holster. It is beautifully made and well worth the price. They sent the wrong size, apologized for the mistake, refunded my shipping costs, and sent a new one very quickly. I appreciated the honesty, quick return and had a very positive experience.

Excellent service and quick turn-around, all items in impeccable condition. Will refer to friends

These Skeleton Keys are just what I needed for my Western decor

I have worn this hat practically everyday since recieving it. I did have to insert a little cardboard in the hat band for a proper fit. Only recomendation I would have is to have is available in Small size also.

I have worn the holster twice and like its appearance. My S&W model 10 pistol fits well and I am pleased. I am somewhat concerned as the dye seems to be fading onto the pants that I have worn with it. I am hoping that will stop in time.

I recently purchased this utility belt and upon receiving the belt it did not fit...I was bummed to say the least. (yes I did not follow the correct instructions and did not measure from my lower waist/hip area. DOH!) But after calling back and speaking with customer service they handled it with ease. I sent the belt back and was credited and I received my new belt two days later. Great customer service! I would not hesitate to place another order.

Got the Coburn Great Coat for my Edgar Allan Poe costume and also used it at Disneyworld at "Mickey's Not-So-Scary-Halloween" last weekend. I went as one of the duelists from the Haunted Mansion. A lot of people knew who the character was and complemented me on how great I looked! My bride especially loved the coat! It looks great and is my favorite new costume item! Thanks for a great product! Carl

This was my first time ordering from your website based on the recommendation of a dear friend. Let me assure you it will NOT be the last! Although the original hat that I ordered was not available your customer service department went out of their way to get me a similar product that fit the bill to a T! My husband looks so sharp in his derby hat and he and I are both very pleased with the entire transaction from start to finish. The hat's construction was top drawer. Please feel free to use any part of my review to encourage others to try out your wonderful products and website. I know I'll be recommending it to others who enjoy good quality products and service.

Perfect scabbard for my Henry rifle!

Beautiful tooling!

Well built and lots of loops!

Fast shipping and authentic product.

I love these gloves. If measure right, they fit snug and the insides are very soft. Good quality leather. Perfect for costumes or even just to wear as winter or driving gloves. Very comfortable and look great.

This just came in the mail a few days ago and before I even took it out of the package I could tell it was good quality. The design is beautiful, very elegant (I got it with the green swirl skirt and it matches almost perfectly for that earthy style). The ribbon tie is gorgeous and a lovely light beige color to compliment the floral and green. I can tell I'm going to be wearing this for a very long time.

good fit-seems like very good quality

Good looking holster with thick leather. The only problem I have with it is the dye comes off on your hands when you first handle it. It takes a lot of rubbing to get it to the condition you need.

This is a nice belt. Good thick leather. The only issue I have with it is that the black leather dye comes off on your hands. I would also recommend you order a size or two larger than what your hips measure.

Excellent service, fast shipping and best of all I loved the cap!

Great looking vest. Soft canvas material that is comfortable and durable. Looks great with the rest of my SASS 1880's Texas Ranger persona.

I orderd these pants as a back up for my SASS outfit. The quality is great. Material is light, cool yet durable. The price was better than comparable items on other sites as they were on sale. They have now replaced my original pair as my go to SASS trousers.

No major issues - they are very adjustable and very comfortable. I'm a short person and may have actually found the smaller set a better fit overall. The large set is nearly fully adjusted out for me. The leather ends where they actually attach to the trousers seems a bit weak and flimsy. A slightly thicker end connection may hold up better over time. Solid 4 stars for fit and comfort...1 more star to gain from better quality at the attachment points.

Overall - very very happy with the quality of these trousers. Pay attention to the sizing information to ensure you order a size that will atually fit you. Unless you are super tall already - you will need to alter these to your inseam... Would recommend to the manufacturer to drop the sewn-on tag/label on the back. It takes away from the authentic feel. Either drop the label altogether or sew it on the inside of the waistband where it won't be seen. I had my label removed when I had the alternations done - it didn't cost anything more - but it is an effort I would have liked to be able to avoid altogether. A very solid 5-star endorsement.

The suit is beautiful; just what I wanted.The town I grew up in holds a Victorian Christmas celebration each year, and I have always wanted an outfit to wear for it. This suit fits the bill perfectly. I am looking forward to wearing it with pride.

The camisole looks as pictures, except on me it does not reach my waist as it does on the mannequin. The Camisole is also somewhat see through. I bought it to be worn with an underbust corset as part of a Halloween costume. I have to wear a beige tank top underneath in order to not be indecent in public.

Very pleased with the cap. Sizing is spot on. Looks great. Prompt shipping. People no longer comment how distressed I am when they realize how distressed my cap is.

Well made, looks good as a common man's shirt

I liked the style and fit of the pants. Very accurate 19th century look. They come long, and I brought them to the tailor to take them up 2". I also had to ask them to remove a large modern sewn-on label, very prominently placed on the back. I felt this was a poor idea in pants to be used for stage or reenacting purposes. Other than the label issue, this would be 5 stars.

I got this shoe in size 13, which is a size that seems to vary by company. The fit was perfect, a nice comfortable shoe but in a historically accurate style. Happy with this purchase.

I would love to give this shirt 5 stars but I can't. It is absolutely beautiful and very well made. However, if you are a busty girl like myself (DDD), this shirt will not fall right. It has a seam line in the bust area that you can barely see in the image. I was so sad.

I am very impressed by the quality of this corset! I wanted to cry when I sent it back but it was only because it didn't work with my outfit how I had imagined in my head. Very nice!

These gloves are excellent quality! I have a very hard time finding gloves that will fit me since I have very small hands, the stretchy material makes them perfect for anyone.

I purchased this skirt for a ride that my husband and I were participating in. It is very comfortable and very high quality! If you are planning on riding in it, I'm not sure how it would work on a motorcycle but it worked great with Vespas!

They are perfect just what i needed there easy to wash and they dont get that dirty and they stay a bright white.

None of the other sites I researched had these cool model guns and they look so unique. Attention to detail is the creme of the crop even the bullets look real and the steam valves. I love the word Nemesis down the barrel I posted this to Facebook and friends commented how cool it looked but I don't think they had any idea it was a model. I hope you get some more of the big shot gun back in because I would purchase that one too. I am very happy about this purchase and it couldn't look any better. If you want a neat addition then this is it and it even came with a cool letter describing its history. I cannot say enough good things about this product except it really is special and worth every penny spent due to the fine workmanship.

I love that these were not the banded type of glasses for a steampunk costume and yet can still be worn as regular sunglasses. These are very unique which is why I chose them. They arrived quickly and unharmed. If your are looking for something different for a costume I had a hard time finding these on any other site.

This clock is so detailed and intricate and they included a battery. I am very happy with my purchase and it arrived promptly. I liked that this was an Alice in Wonderland themed item.

This belt is made of quality soft leather and will be perfect more than just costume applications. I would order this again and recommend you to friends.

Great quality, heavy enough that it is definitely well-made but not so heavy that it's cumbersome. Very comfortable to wear. I am impressed!

I love these clothes. To bad they are expensive. I would wear them everyday. I also found out that I am an old soul.

I love the clothes I got. I love them so much I would wear victorian and wild western every day... too bad they are expensive. I have also found out that I am an old soul. Thank you.

I was very satisfied with both the products and service that I received from the Historical Emporium. My hearty thanks to you.

Arrived promptly and in great condition. Great accessory for a costume or a particularly fancy outfit.

I absolutely love, LOVE this skirt it looks so pretty with my whole ensemble I also bought a purple hat to go with it. It looks exactly how it does in the picture and I adore it.

Hey I got exactly what I ordered. The price and the service were and are excellent!! Thank You!

I like this vest. Very simply stated, which works perfectly for all my steam punk accessories.

These things are funky and cool. They make me wish I had a WWII Harley or Indian motorcycle that I could ride to my hangar where I keep my bi-plane. They complete my steam punk outfit perfectly.

This watch is beautiful, especially for the price. Easy to set, open, etc. Love the detail and the open back showing the inner workings. The chain is nice too, much better than I expected it to be.

Great vest. The quality is good. It fits well. The pockets are real. Every button is real. Best of all it looks great.

Okay there are several reasons I love this skirt. The fabric is really good quality, and the floral design adds a really cool Celtic feel. It has pull ties, which I love because every woman needs a little adjustment. And it's true to its name - I swirled in it as soon as I put it on and it was perfect. A beautiful earthy, Irish green with the perfect attributes for the look, if you ask me.

Along with a pair of Thurston striped trousers, one simply must have a cutaway coat. Teddy Roosevelt favored just the same sort of attire. So did Sherlock Holmes and Prince Albert. What better company could one wish for? This coat is bully when the game is afoot.

Any would-be Victorian/Edwardian gentleman needs at least one pair of trousers like these. Wearing them transports one to Teddy Roosevelt's Washington and Victoria's Court of St. James.

Very dressy and a nice little addition to the wardrobe.

Fits great, looks great, very durable and all around wonderful!! You folks are THE best!!

A Good Holster, at a Good price! It is very comfortable, and my Ruger New Model Blackhawk, with the 4 5/8" barrel fits very nicely! Shipping was FAST, and I am Very Pleased with my purchase!

These pants are great. I bought them for a costume, but I have already worn them to work. I've gotten quite a few compliments on them from co-workers. The fit and construction are amazing.

Pretty enough boot, but leather was thin and crispy -- more like "pleather." As advised, we ordered an 11 when usually a size 10 (no 10 1/2), and they were too large. Returned.

This coat arrived and I was awed by the beauty and craftsmanship. It's debut will be at a Christmas party that is NOT Victorian themed where I hope to be the hit of the party. Nothing says Christmas like a well dressed Victorian man in a Tailcoat and Top hat. My only complaint is the outside pocket not being a real pocket (where does one put their Handkerchief?)

The first time I ordered from this company, I received my product within 4 business days. The item was exactly what I was looking for and I'll definetely be ordering from Historical Emporium again!

I bought this cap for a steampunk wedding (not mine...) and like it so much, it's replaced the baseball cap I usually wear when going to outdooor social functions. It's well made and the price was right

This is the fastest product delivery ever. I ordered online and the notice that it had been shipped came the next day. The size is perfect, and the weave is substantial without being heavy. Many Hats, new favorite.

The Statesman Walking Stick arrived in record time and in great condition. It looks lovely in our production of Pirates of Penzance--the Major General uses it. The walking stick is a great accessory to his costume. I like that this one has a skid-resistant bottom and doesn't need one of those ugly rubber stoppers. It makes this walking stick perfect for period stage productions.

While this outfit looked lovely when it arrived, it did not fit right. I ordered a size Medium. The bodice was much too big (both tall and wide), but the skirt was tight. I would have made do and just altered it, but the top is rather complicated and beyond my skills. Also, it did not appear to be "satin" at all, although it was pretty. I put it in the mail today to return. I hope to try again with another one of your products as they do look very nice, but may be too hard for me to purchase online due to sizing problems.

Many complements to the makers of this one. Looks, feels and fits great.

Love it, great fit and look

The shipping and processing was superb. They fit great and feel comfortable. There was a hair thin scratch on the inside rim on the exterior of the goggles. It's only visible at super close distances, ad doesn't even warrant a return on my part due to the overall quality of the rest of the piece.

this hat appears well-made, and was very handsome when I took it out of the box. However, when I tried it on, it was too short from front to back, and much too wide. I could fit my hands between the hat and the sides of my head. The fit was so poor, I sent it back. Too bad, because it was just the look I wanted!

The bowtie has warm subtle colors that glow and is the perfect bowtie for my Husband's Halloween costume this year. It is well made and the material is very nice! Thanks for the great products Historical Emporium!

These glasses are exactly what I needed for my Ms. Lemon costume this Halloween. They are well made and have the exact style I was looking for. Thanks Historical Emporium!

The skirt makes you feel all curvy in a good way. It does fit a little tight so order up from your normal size. Overall very vampy for a victorian.

I bought these goggles as part of a mad scientist costume, and my 14 year old son saw me removing them from the package. He took them from me and excitedly asked if he could wear them to school for "Wacky Wednesday" during homecoming week. The goggles were very popular at school and raised his reputation (and his ego) quite a bit. Needless to say the quality materials survived getting passed around at high school, they are very comfy and I am sure they will do just fine in my costume.

Came very quickly. My husband wore them for our wedding. They fit great and had a great real leather look that fit the time period. Love them and will order again.

I would prefer a zipper, less authentic, to be sure, but so much more convenient.

This coat is fantastic, the fit perfect and the material and workmanship top notch. The price was very reasonable for the quality of this coat, in fact, I would have paid more, but why argue about price....

Love this utility belt. Holds all my tiny steampunk accessories very nicely. Well built, supple leather. Just great! Arrived on time.

This jacket is really nice. I feel it runs a bit small, especially through the shoulders/upper arms. Good quality and very polished looking.

This globe watch is beautiful. I have seen something similar for twice the price at another store. The gears at the back show nicely through the globe and the face is very pretty.

For a mini top hat, it is exactly what I wanted. Good price and nice quality. It is permanently angled to the side, by the way it's attached to the head band, which is what I wanted.

The dress fit my wife as if it were custom made for her. She received a lot of compliments.

Nice little addition to my Steampunk display. Very nice at a great price.

Only place I could find spare colored lenses to customize my welders goggles. Good quality, great price and fast shipping.

Looked great, made the outfit, and so reasonably priced that when the horse stepped on it after the wedding because it fell of the hanger I didn't cry!

Fit well, looked absolutely AWESOME, was exactly what I was looking for.

was great

I buy from the Historical Emporium every year, and they have not failed yet in creating room silencing costumes, classy outfits, and the most competitive dress clothes I own. Huge kudos to you!

I was completely satisfied with the quality of the belt. My problem was that your site did not provide a clear cut explanation on how to determine the correct size to order. I odered according to the belt size I normally buy. In my case a 36". When the order arrived as I expected. I tried it on and found I could only reach the first hole on the belt. I promptly repackaged and returned it (at my expense) and requested the next larger size (38). When I received it I tried it on and I couldn't reach the first belt hole; it was clearlysmaller than the 36". I called and discussed it with one of your customer rep's. Incidentally all of them were very professional. After discussing with the rep I didn't feel confortable in the process to determine the size and decided to return it for credit. I ended up ordering the belt from one of your competitors. I originally also ordered a Holster. See that for other comments.

Quality seems above average.

This has unquestionably replaced my previous coat for neo-Victorian/goth/steampunk outings. It is now a regular part of my attire with steampunk band Vernian Process. Bravo for adding this to your catalog!

I purchased the monoggle expecting it to be an instant part of my steampunk costume. While it is better than many of the elope-brand goggles I've been seeing around, I can't help feeling a little dorky wearing it, especially with the giant elastic band on it. It's really awesome, but I tend to prefer to wear it with a hat, so as to cover up the band. Overall, great product, but less unive3rsal in style than I was expecting. The customer service, however, is phenomenal! :) I asked for style reccommendations, nand they totally e-mailed me with reccomendations for style depending on what I was going for. Very cool. :)

Yes, somewhere between medieval and vintage is how, I suppose, one would describe my wedding theme. So blending everything together has been a difficult task. But these ties (the Paisley Ascot - Silver for my husband, and the Lively Paisley Ascot - Gold for the groomsmen) are absolutely PERFECT. A cutaway tuxedo, a thistle boutonniere, and voila! You instantly have stunning gentlemen! They arrived super quick in excellent condition, and I highly recommend this company.

These are definitely pantaloons. They serve as nice undergarments... But "Deluxe"? They're nice, but pretty standard.
