Maybe the same organization, but I dealt with western Emporium....styles and selection, easy access.....not many other places to go, so this org. deserves applause!!. If you need help, the contact at San Jose office is polite, competent and a real pro...his name is Noel....so the ONLY DRAWBACK is having to guess on precise sizing, and if ordering leather, just not being sure of the coloring and grain and feel, etc....so I'm a bit hesitant to make another purchase, having to special order and drive 55 miles to touch and try on again.....if you're a bit more of a risk-taker, then this on-line shopping with this org. is probably one of the BEST ways to end up with a quality garment!

Just starting out with exposure to Victorian era clothing. I received splendid assistance with descriptions, of fabric, cut, and what to expect with fit of the clothing. I was also educated with what accessories paired with, accented or "worked" to achieve a desired formal dress appearance within a small mining community.

I needed a coat for my role as a Conductor on a tourist railroad. This Sack Coat is just what I was looking for. It fits in perfectly on a railroad that features some vintage equipment, including a coach that was built in 1917. The coat looks totally appropriate for anyone in need of attire that was worn anywhere from roughly 1880-1950. It is well made, and the size I ordered fits perfectly. I could not be happier, and it arrived promptly, as scheduled. Thank you for providing me a terrific product.

My experience buying from the historical emporium/gentlemans emporium was great! When my fiancé discovered the shirt we ordered for a Halloween costume was a bit too small, their customer service team was very helpful in helping me find the right size for him and even went as far as going and measuring the shoulder width for the larger shirts to make sure they would work! We got him a bigger shirt and it fit like a charm! Can't wait to see how our Victorian Style Vampire outfits turn out next weekend! :)

Timely service. Excellent products. Couldn't find a better source for all one's subject wishes, including victorian clothing which we ordered in 2012 as attire for our same-gender wedding on Long Island, NY.

I was a little apprehensive buying stuff off the web especially niche-type products. However, I was VERY pleasantly surprised by the quality of the products and the speed with which they shipped.

I contacted customer service I reference to my purchases because I needed them by a certain date and one item was special order. They very quickly and accurately made sure I received both my items before the date they were needed. They even went out of their way to call me when they shipped it.

I needed this item very quickly and was delighted that it arrived in an amazingly quick time. The quality is impeccable, down to every detail. The sizing is very generous, so I could have used a size smaller than I thought, however the drawstring waist made adjustment easy. It is a beautiful addition to my costume and makes the skirt fall so much nicer.

My first experience shopping at western Emporium was great. I like that they recommend full outfits but also allows you to purchase the pieces individually as well. I had a few questions before I ordered and the lady I spoke to on the phone was polite and knew exactly what she was talking about. All of my items shipped with blazing speed and arrived exactly as described/pictured. I would definitely purchase again...thanks to these guys my halloween costume is going to be a smashing success.

I order something from the Emporium sites at least twice a year. I've never received a bad product, a late shipment, or the wrong item. I recommend the site to everyone I know who costumes, and probably too many strangers at conventions and parties besides. What else is there to say? They know what they're doing.

I purchased a coat but didn't think the color was appropriate for my costume. Their customer service recommended buying the replacement and returning the original rather than doing an exchange as it may take longer than I wanted it to. My replacement arrived quickly. The return process was smooth and my refund was provided promptly. Overall this was a great experience.

Ordering was easy and I received everything very quickly! It will be my first stop costume shopping from now on! The Dress, shoes, hat, everything was of great quailty. After, I received the order I was surprised at the quality. I would have expected to pay more for something made this well. The shoes are even comfortable to wear for a long period of time.

I am very pleased. Prompt delivery of product. Well packaged. Hat seems to be of high quality. A little large, however a little paper placed inside brim band solved. Plan to purchase an entire outfit in near future.

Too much customer service. I want customer care on my needs not yours. If I have a problem I will contact you, vise versa is annoying and the fact I cannot unchecked the box below is disturbing.

I had to exchange two items because of sizing issues, too big in one case, too small in the other, when putting together an 1870s dressy victorian ensemble for my husband. The end result was a fast turnaround, timely notifications of returns to the company, fast replacement of items needed in the right sizes and very helpful assistance from the person with whom I spoke. I'm just so pleased with Historical Emporium.
