The hats were excellent quality and held up well. We took off the original trim to put on trim that matched the costumes they were purchased for and had no trouble.

The item we wanted was on back-order. But we had a deadline and when I emailed you to change the size of the item, you informed me that the item had become available and would be shipped ASAP! The hat was received in plenty of time to customize it and it was perfect. Thanks

For as long as I can remember. My love for vested suits has always remained. From the double breasted versions to the good old 3 piece. Ever since those days though! I have been enjoying all your many different types vest. With more colors options and styles than I would care to mention. I have found that a good vest can offer a lot of flexibility to either a matching(color) jacket. A real good add on for a suite. Or like myself. I'll wear one with a nice shirt. The look and quality of the vest are actually quite superb. I will most certainly be ordering more in the future. You folks are on my favorites page! already! Cheers!

Shirt is a very comfortable feeling styled shirt. It really has that back in the early days look. The fit was spot on. Got a feeling that old will be meeting up with new as far as different Ties and ascots go.

Quality very nice. Arrived nicely packaged. I wore it the other day with a matching Ascot and vest. Must say I saw a huge attention to detail quality stitching was very solid looking,,, I'll just say everything was very authentic. Spot on. Well done! Cheers!

Hey! I love the spectacles! I wore them for a folk festival because I'm going for a folk/Americana style image for stage and they looked great! I would recommend your products to others. I'll probably get a vest from you guys soon! Thanks for great products!

These petticoats were purchased for students who are embarking on their opera careers and need a rehearsal skirt to add to their toolkits. These are pretty, well made, reasonable and will be appropriate for any rehearsal period.

I had inquired about a product listed as out of stock and they took the time to track down a coat in the correct size for me. Not only that, but to confirm they had it in hand and it was the correct item before processing an order. That is how you win and keep customers, a rare thing in today's business world.

The coat looks perfect and feels well made. It should work perfectly for my costume and the site was very helpful with the order. I haven't yet completely confirmed that the sizing runs true to the stated size, it seems it may be a little tight - but that could be me.

The product was satisfactory. The service was not!!! I ordered something for my son and requested it be sent to his address not mine. This can't be a unique request. I also paid extra for expedited delivery. That didn't happen because of the time it took to open and understand your email. Apparently you needed a secret code from my credit card online info. Days of time and frustration including many fruitless phone calls could have been avoided if you had just called it the transaction number. Why would you call it a secret code? My bank could't even guess what you meant and told me they had never heard of such a thing. The order was late arriving and i was annoyed. There was no reason for any of it. You had no problem taking the payment on time but did not ship in time. You need to fix this! By the way...the phone number provided didn't work from canada

I just ordered and received my new holster and it fits my reproduction 1873 Pieta 44 single action revolver perfectly. The leather is not as ridged as I thought it would be and it smells phenomenal. The sizing instructions helped me get a perfect fit. Awesome holster especially for the price and I highly recommend it.

The Monocle was a gift for my boyfriend and when he opened it the first thing he said was "why did you pay so much?" That was the best part since it cost so little and he loved it! It was exactly was he wanted. The shipping was truly amazing and I received it only seven days after order in plenty of time for his birthday. I had it wrapped and waiting for the big day! Very satisfied!!

I was looking for vests that would reflect a country feeling. This store has a wide selection and it was difficult to decide but decide it did! I made a mistake in my first order and it was very easy to have it cancelled and credited to my credit card. I made my correct order and was very please at how fast I received it. I will definitely shop here again and have recommended it to others.

Basically , I was pleased with my purchase , I was happy with the quality for the money .... The problem was I didn't receive the "Antique Brown Leather " rig I ordered ... At best it was brand new chocolate brown .... Despite my dissapointment , I decided to settle for what I got as I had neither the time or inclation to go to the trouble of returning it ....

I have to agree with everyone else who noted the size of the monocle as being too large. It's certainly well made, just too large. I attempted to bend the eyepieces but ended up breaking one of them. I also concur that the lanyard looks pretty tacky. I replaced it with a length of thin black ribbon.

I ordered this in both 46L and 48L. I ordinarily wear a 48L coat and I am in a white collar job, buying suits and sport coats for many, many years. The 48 was too big in the shoulders and the body, more like a 50 in a regular suit coat. The 46 fit well through the shoulders, but the chest area was poorly tailored and the waist was too small to button. Tailoring for the body and chest area is not too hot either. Sent them both back. Not sure how they size these, but it is a long, long ways away from standard suit sizing.

Wearing this suit let me feel like a queen from the past, and its actually funny to travel in time. Fits perfect and is as lovely and shiny as shown in the pictures. Besides it makes a nice teasing "sound" from the fabric that tells everyone you are moving! (especially brand new). Together with click from heels its funny to walk.

The hardest part of the entire purchase experience was deciding which model and color to buy! Received my order quickly, and it was exactly as pictured and described. My Ruger Vaquero 5.5 inch fits in the rig perfectly. Sizing advice of 4 inches larger than belt size was right on, though I did measure in advance. I found other sites with cowboy rigs priced 3 times more, and they do not look any better to me. I like this all leather rig better than the metal re-enforced styles I've seen. An easy shopping experience with prompt shipping.

I ordered this hat for our wedding vow renewal ceremony as we are having an "Old West" theme. I was so worried about it arriving on time as it was so important to my outfit. To my surprise it arrived in just a few days, it was perfect, I just loved it and it fit perfect. I am so excited for our special day so everyone can see it. Thank you for your excellent five star customer service I will definitely be using you all again!

The Customer Service at Historical Emporium was excellent. After long and exhaustive but helpful conversations with Eve, I set up an appointment to try on several items. Eve was waiting in the front with all I desired and went back into the warehouse several times to fine-tune the fit. She was friendly, helpful, understanding and courteous. The costume pieces were *just* what I needed for Dickens Faire. Thank you Eve and the Historical Emporium.

Like on ebay you give 5 stars when you are satisfied. So when I am more than satisfied I must give 6! As a fantastic tool internet is for shopping, shops who provides worldwide trade is even more fantastic. It was easy to choose from catalog, communication was quick, shipment and price as described. I felt so secure about this firm that my very first order I placed 350 USD I wanted to place a bigger order, but because of customs and VAT and tax other costs here in Norway, I managed to buy some items under the tax free level (ap 30usd), this way saving money. "Ill be back", I definetely will buy more in future! Sincerely S I just found you by accident! Searching victorian clothes on internet I rolled pages after pages finding some nice things, this was ok enough. But in the bottom of the pages I found some links. Searched a couple of them from time to time. Your hit were quickly send to adress list!

I was so very impressed with the quality of merchandise, the method and condition with which it was shipped, and the speed of delivery. I think your web site is a great find, and I highly recommend your company to everyone! The quality of the clothes is very high, and styling very authentic. I purchased the items to wear for a barn costume party and picture day and am so thrilled with the items I have put together for this special day. My expectations were exceeded. One item was on backorder which you promptly informed me of, but much to my surprise, I received the item later that same day. I received everything within a week of placing my order. I was very impressed that everything arrived neatly pressed, in plastic bags, and on hangars. Your service is outstanding, which is a rare compliment from me with the quality of service provided by most companies these days. Having spent most of my career in customer service, I don't pass out high praise like this lightly. I would definitely shop with you again myself, and do highly recommend you to others. Thank you for a truly great experience!

I love this hat. Its solid, well made and attractive. The red feather on the side is an added treat. The lining is good and solid, glued underneath the headband and stitched with a black cord like binder to the top. All told a finely made hat and not a cheap throw off. If I had any complaint its that medium just fits, if I were to let my hair grow it wouldn't. As it is I steamed it some to stretch it so it would ride right at the top of my ears level instead of on top of my head. 23 inches is medium on the chart, it could be a tad larger, but if I that is my only complaint, I have nothing to complain about. After I steamed it a couple of times, it fits fine and I have had a lot of compliments on it. I would and have recommended Historical Emporium... at least for this hat, I plan on buying other things and once I do I will be in a better position to speak... but if they meet the quality of this hat, they are stellar.

These 2 Faux Aviator 'helmets' are going to work great as period pieces when my wife and I show up in our 50's vintage Super 7 Roadster! The car does its own job of announcing its presence... these funky aviator helmets add lots of flavor to our fun.

I'm sad that the goggles aren't comfortable at all over my regular glasses! They actually press my glasses painfully into the bridge of my nose. Perhaps I can survive for short bursts of wearing them as my wife and I drive up to local destinations in our 50's Super 7 Roadster... They add quite a visual flair to the Faux Aviator Helmets we also purchased and look great for the purpose.

Hi. I ordered a bow tie for my father. Just after I did that, he phoned and asked my to order a brown one as well. I had just ordered the other and I did not want to pay more shipping costs. I phoned and asked the last in customer service and she said she could still ship the brown bow tie and wave the shipping since they had just sent it to me. That is what I call valued customer service. I will definitely order from you again.

I know some folks buy from here because it's costumey, but not me - the cotton and wool lines sold by the Emporium are high quality, hardy and stylish clothes fantastic for ordinary use, at a decent price, even with international postage. The service is also wonderful. I'm a woman who prefers to wear ye olde drag and the men's clothes here fit the bill better than anything else I've found in 20 years. Thanks Emporium!

Perhaps I can survive for short bursts of wearing them as my wife and I drive up to local destinations in our 50's Super 7 Roadster... They add quite a visual flair to the Faux Aviator Helmets we also purchased and look great for the purpose.

Faux Aviator
These 2 Faux Aviator 'helmets' are going to work great as period pieces when my wife and I show up in our 50's vintage Super 7 Roadster! The car does its own job of announcing its presence... these funky aviator helmets add lots of flavor to our fun.

I was very happy to recieve this belt/holster as a gift. The quality and design of the tooled leather surpassed my expectations. Not to mention my blackhawk fits and looks GREAT in the holster. I look forward to dealing with your company in the near future.

Great Hat
I love this hat. Its solid, well made and attractive. The red feather on the side is an added treat. The lining is good and solid, glued underneath the headband and stitched with a black cord like binder to the top. All told a finely made hat and not a cheap throw off. If I had any complaint its that medium just fits, if I were to let my hair grow it wouldn't. As it is I steamed it some to stretch it so it would ride right at the top of my ears level instead of on top of my head. 23 inches is medium on the chart, it could be a tad larger, but if I that is my only complaint, I have nothing to complain about. After I steamed it a couple of times, it fits fine and I have had a lot of compliments on it. I would and have recommended Historical Emporium... at least for this hat, I plan on buying other things and once I do I will be in a better position to speak... but if they meet the quality of this hat, they are stellar.

Our Wedding Hat
My fiancé has a giant head, so we weren't sure if we'd find a top hat that fit. But the XL size DOES fit him and he is thrilled with it. It is a tall hat and definitely a great special occasion hat!

Absolutely Outstanding
I was so very impressed with the quality of merchandise, the method and condition with which it was shipped, and the speed of delivery. I think your web site is a great find, and I highly recommend your company to everyone! The quality of the clothes is very high, and styling very authentic. I purchased the items to wear for a barn costume party and picture day and am so thrilled with the items I have put together for this special day. My expectations were exceeded. One item was on backorder which you promptly informed me of, but much to my surprise, I received the item later that same day. I received everything within a week of placing my order. I was very impressed that everything arrived neatly pressed, in plastic bags, and on hangars. Your service is outstanding, which is a rare compliment from me with the quality of service provided by most companies these days. Having spent most of my career in customer service, I don't pass out high praise like this lightly. I would definitely shop with you again myself, and do highly recommend you to others. Thank you for a truly great experience!

6 stars
Like on ebay you give 5 stars when you are satisfied. So when I am more than satisfied I must give 6! As a fantastic tool internet is for shopping, shops who provides worldwide trade is even more fantastic. It was easy to choose from catalog, communication was quick, shipment and price as described. I felt so secure about this firm that my very first order I placed 350 USD I wanted to place a bigger order, but because of customs and VAT and tax other costs here in Norway, I managed to buy some items under the tax free level (ap 30usd), this way saving money. "Ill be back", I definetely will buy more in future! Sincerely S I just found you by accident! Searching victorian clothes on internet I rolled pages after pages finding some nice things, this was ok enough. But in the bottom of the pages I found some links. Searched a couple of them from time to time. Your hit were quickly send to adress list!

Superlative Customer Service
The Customer Service at Historical Emporium was excellent. After long and exhaustive but helpful conversations with Eve, I set up an appointment to try on several items. Eve was waiting in the front with all I desired and went back into the warehouse several times to fine-tune the fit. She was friendly, helpful, understanding and courteous. The costume pieces were *just* what I needed for Dickens Faire. Thank you Eve and the Historical Emporium.

Great Product & Service
The hardest part of the entire purchase experience was deciding which model and color to buy! Received my order quickly, and it was exactly as pictured and described. My Ruger Vaquero 5.5 inch fits in the rig perfectly. Sizing advice of 4 inches larger than belt size was right on, though I did measure in advance. I found other sites with Cowboy rigs priced 3 times more, and they do not look any better to me. I like this all leather rig better than the metal re-enforced styles I've seen. An easy shopping experience with prompt shipping.

Wearing this suit let me feel like a queen from the past, and its actually funny to travel in time. Fits perfect and is as lovely and shiny as shown in the pictures. Besides it makes a nice teasing "sound" from the fabric that tells everyone you are moving! (especially brand new). Together with click from heels its funny to walk.

Poor Fit
I ordered this in both 46L and 48L. I ordinarily wear a 48L coat and I am in a white collar job, buying suits and sport coats for many, many years. The 48 was too big in the shoulders and the body, more like a 50 in a regular suit coat. The 46 fit well through the shoulders, but the chest area was poorly tailored and the waist was too small to button. Tailoring for the body and chest area is not too hot either. Sent them both back. Not sure how they size these, but it is a long, long ways away from standard suit sizing.

Well made, too big
I have to agree with everyone else who noted the size of the monocle as being too large. It's certainly well made, just too large. I attempted to bend the eyepieces but ended up breaking one of them. I also concur that the lanyard looks pretty tacky. I replaced it with a length of thin black ribbon.

The Monocle was a gift for my boyfriend and when he opened it the first thing he said was "why did you pay so much?" That was the best part since it cost so little and he loved it! It was exactly was he wanted. The shipping was truly amazing and I received it only seven days after order in plenty of time for his birthday. I had it wrapped and waiting for the big day! Very satisfied!!

miscommunication
The product was satisfactory. The service was not!!! I ordered something for my son and requested it be sent to his address not mine. This can't be a unique request. I also paid extra for expedited delivery. That didn't happen because of the time it took to open and understand your email. Apparently you needed a secret code from my credit card online info. Days of time and frustration including many fruitless phone calls could have been avoided if you had just called it the transaction number. Why would you call it a secret code? My bank could't even guess what you meant and told me they had never heard of such a thing. The order was late arriving and i was annoyed. There was no reason for any of it. You had no problem taking the payment on time but did not ship in time. You need to fix this! By the way...the phone number provided didn't work from canada

For as long as I can remember. My love for vested suits has always remained. From the double breasted versions to the good old 3 piece. Ever since those days though! I have been enjoying all your many different types Vest. With more colors options and styles than I would care to mention. I have found that a good vest can offer a lot of flexibility to either a matching(color) jacket. A real good add on for a suite. Or like myself. I'll wear one with a nice shirt. The look and quality of the vest are actually quite superb. I will most certainly be ordering more in the future. You folks are on my favorites page! already! Cheers!
