Less than a week before her wedding, my daughter informed me that the colors would be black/white and green. A day or two after that, she sent me a photo of the tie she was going to be wearing. So I'm in a bit of a panic, and I think, "Hey, I get all kinds of cool stuff at Historical Emporium. I wonder if they can get this to me on time?" So I look up the emerald green vest that I wanted and call in to order it, and have it shipped as fast as possible TO UTAH (since I'd be leaving my home in Eureka, CA before it was even shipped). The support person said, "No problem, we can get it there via normal two-day." I worry and ask if I need to pay for overnight. They quote me the difference, and then say, "It'll get to Utah on Thursday, no problem. Overnight will only get it there one day earlier." So I trust them, and it gets there the day before I do! (Did I mention I drove there, and it took me three days?) The vest and matching tie are perfect. I also got an ivory hat band for my top hat. I supplemented it with my blue striped trousers... that I originally bought from the Emporium. Fantastic. Of course, my daughter looked better, because... well, she's my daughter. Lovely wedding!

If you're like me I would deal with Historical Emporium for your Historical needs

The quality of the clothes and the service is always excellent. Unfortunately, I do have to return most of what I but because my measurements are not textbook within the guidelines of the size chart. So, a garment may fit in one area but not another.

Overall, the customer service was very good, I did request a larger size, but you guys didn't have it in stock, the salesman told me on the phone that I can try the smaller one. If it doesn't fit, I could always return it. Not knowing that it would cost me another 1295 for shipping. He should've clarified that but overall I am very satisfied.

Good, efficient processing of purchased merchandise

Great!! Easy to order. Lots of choices on the website. Made it easy to find what we needed. We picked a vest and it was delivered quickly. Great packaging. Better than expected. Great materials and will be perfect for our daughter's wedding.
