I purchased this dress to wear with a shawl I made from a pattern in an 1870 issue of Peterson's Magazine. The two garments look fantastic together!

Over the years, I have purchased four blouses and several skirts for my Victorian time period. I have always been very pleased with the quality and service. I have found the skirts to run a little large in the waist, but there are extra buttons to make easy adjustments. Blouses are always my perfect fit. Various jewelry purchases always get compliments. There have been occasions when I chose Historical Emporium garments because they are shipped more rapidly than competitors. My husband has a full Victorian outfit from Historical Emporium that he is proud to wear, plus two different top hats. He carried the grey one in his car to put on whenever visiting our History Center!

I think I received a tracking number within 2 hours of ordering. Record time! Shipment came quickly as well. I have other products from your site and everything has been great quality!

Wonderful product & Customer Service

I had an easy purchase. We didn't have anytime to make anything for an event that came up short notice. So I opted to purchase a vintage style men's swimsuit because I just did not have the option to get one put together myself. I sew professionally but sometimes just don't have the time to sew for myself.

coat arrived in a very timely manner. Material was better than expected, and what others had said held true...they do run big, especially the length. Overall, extremely pleased with it!
