Very happy with the extensive selection of clothing, especially for women as my wife usually has far fewer choices at other establishments. This wasn't my first purchase from you and it won't be the last.

It don't get no better than this. Had to stretch the boots a tad to fit my feet, but now they fit fine. Good quality.

I bought a beautiful victorian Satin Ladies Bonnet and a Muslin bonnet as birthday gifts. I think they are both of exceptional quality! I was so pleased to have discovered the Ladies' Emporium web site!

Very happy with the product, was rather disappointed that I had to pay almost £20.00 to receive the goods due to duties. This took the overall cost including postage to more than the cost of the goods. However, the shirt was exactly what I wanted.

I was very impressed with the service I received! I made an order on a Friday afternoon and needed it here in Hawaii the next week for an event. It came the following Wednesday with plenty of time to spare! The clothes were great however a few items did not fit me correctly so I returned them. I got a full refund with no problems. I highly recommend shopping here!

Honestly a bit pricey for the quality of material, but glad it was made in America. Also, shipping was extremely quick, amid fears that i would not get my vest in time for a formal event. Processing and shipping was great.

Almost Perfect
Hi, I love the outfit. The only problem is that the top is very small for a Medium. I always take a Medium, and the skirt fits perfectly, but the top is too small for me. Thanks! Kitty

Soso
The inner part of the belt that passes through the other side inner belt loop is too short and makes it difficult to put the belt on but it all works.

Awesome pants!
These pants are full length and very comfortable. Just what I was looking for! I wear them to church as an alternative to dresses so I can scurry after the little ones and maintain my modesty. I would suggest these to anyone!

Holster
The 38/357 western holster was just what I was looking for! My Dan Wesson 357 magnum fit perfectly.

Nice pants
These pants are full length which is very nice. The fit is a little different as they tend to give one a wedgy if you bend over. I ordered the Rust and Black classic riding pants and do not have that issue, so I believe it is just how this particular pair is made. Other than that, they are very comfortable.

Decent Jacket
The 'velvet' is rough and the whole coat is stiff. The trim is quite nice. It will work for the stage which is why I purchased it.

Straw top hat
I ordered your straw top hat because I wanted a low - ebb, relaxed summer formal look. It appeared to be what I would like. The order came quickly. The hat really seems to be well made. However, I was surprised to see how TALL it is! The site did say how tall it would be, but I did not estimate the effect. Well, if I don't think I can live with it, I'll just have get another one!

great fit
I scoured the internet searching for these period trousers to go with a custom cowboy bounty hunter outfit. The sizing instructions are a bit confusing and seem to give different ways to get your measurement. I measured my waist as the instructions stated and came up with 40" and my normal pant size is 34. It also states that most people need to go up one more size than their normal pant size. This is what I did. I wear 34 so I ordered a 36 and the fit was perfect. The trousers are well made and I'm very satisfied.

This Coat was Fantastic.
This coat is probably the best coat I have ever bought. I am a big fan of Doctor Who and the Frock Coats of the Victorian Era, so this was perhaps the best purchase I have ever made. Would order one again if I could. If not, I might buy a top hat and a cane to go with it.

Couldn't be happier.
The vest is a perfect fit. Not only am I pleased with the vest, but I'm thankful for the fast shipping. I was told since it was a special order it would take 7-10 extra days for delivery. It arrived in five days. You can't ask for a smoother purchase.

Great vest
I really like this vest. Goid canvas, quality stitching. I am 6'5", so finding a waistcoat that fits is troublesome, but this vest fits wonderfully.

Perfect fit and style
The white tie and tails garment which I purchase was an excellent fit and styled to detail. The quality of the garment I found exceptional. The value is top notch. Thank you so much. Kind Regards,Dr. William E. Altman

This formal cape is an excellent accent to formal attire. Looks amazing on.

A Great Item
This vest works well with just about every other article of clothing I own. Although I don't own any other "period clothing" (yet), this vest matches up just as well with jeans as it does with my tweed sports jacket. A great looking article of clothing that I expect to be wearing for many more years. Love it.

Brushed Cotton Trousers
Fine heavy cloth. Excellent fit according to measurements given. I'd recommend turning them out when machine washing. I will buy more.

Grey bowler
I have to say i was disappointed. I wear a lot of Derby's or bowlers in the winter I have a great antique one in Black, I have a great brown one with a feather I got from Amazon, This one I was disappointed it seemed small compared to my others and it does not look grey it looks black. When i saw it in your add it looked much lighter grey. I love the fact that its crushable but other than that it is not my favorite. I have a total of 7 bowlers

Payton shirt
If I could give this 10 stars I would. One of the best looking shirts at any price. As usual top performance and customer service and I will always come back for that reason and many others. Thank you for all you do.

Very high quality
We were expecting a costume hat, and got a very elegant real one! It's a bit rounder than would be optimal for our measurements (both people who've tried it have head circumferences that are in the size range expected, and the hat is tight front-to-back but has generous extra room on either size, which fits a bit oddly) but we're expecting wear to break it in nicely. If you've also got an oval head, though, be aware that for the first several times you wear it, it's going to have a tendency to press a bit and occasionally pop off. As someone who's bought very high-quality modern hats in the past, I can say that the materials this is made of are top-quality, and it's gorgeous.

very nice coat
The girl who took my order over the phone was knowledgeable and helpful. The coat I ordered was really nice. It fit perfectly and looks great I plan on wearing it to a wedding this coming weekend. Thanks for your help.

Outstanding vest
This vest goes with any ensemble, and definitely makes a statement. Sizing was accurate (ordered a medium), surprisingly, especially for a guy with a bigger upper body chest. The waist is easily tapered with the adjustment strap on the back, so it won't look baggy.

Ladies Hat Cognac
What a truly beautiful and showy accessory to my outfit! Looking forward to showing it off promenading around the old colonial country town of Beechworth, Victoria (Australia) during the re-enactments of the bushranger Ned Kelly.

Disapointed
This is the 2nd outfit I,v bought, and frankly,this product does not meet the standards usually associated with yourselves.On the whole, the suit feels cheap, The material is very thin. I gave my measurement as a 38 inch waist. The size that arrived are 34 inch. It will cost me more to return the item in question.(I live in the UK), than I paid for the suit! I am really disappointed, as I now cannot wear this suit to the function for which it was bought
