I do like very much this blouse, except, the sleeve length, I have a M and a L size.
I compared the blouses, found the sleeve lengths are the same.
I bought the L for two reasons, the sleeve length and the fullness of the body.
The fullness of the body is good in the L size. but the length of the sleeve, I needed a 1/2 inches or a bit longer.
They fabric is great, and the design goes with several of my costumes.
I just thought you would like to know.

I purchased this pinstripe blouse and the matching skirt for an upcoming event in my hometown. The event requires us to have on traditional looking 1850's clothing. This outfit is fashioned perfectly for the time period, very well made and fit true to size. I am so impressed and felt the price was great for the quality I received.

Purchased this for my wife and she is very happy with it for her 1870's impression. Shipping was amazingly fast, ordered on Friday and it arrived on that Sunday. We will be buying from Historical Emporium again.

Beautiful Blouse! Pay attention to fit. I had to return this blouse and order the next size up, which I did because once it arrived and I saw it in person, I had to have it! Very well made and just a gorgeous design. Extremely flattering. I ordered a size L using the bust measurement in the fit chart and the blouse did fit, but the neck was uncomfortably snug and the sleeves a tad short. The next size up, XL, gave me the length in the sleeves I needed (I will be working a box office while wearing it) and more comfort in the neck. There is more room in the bust area, but as I am tucking it into my skirt it will tailor visually. So by all means buy this blouse, but take these comments into mind if you are lengthy in the limbs to avoid paying return shipping.

Sizing chart was different on this one and the one I ordered was too small so I returned it.

Love the fit! This blouse was perfect for my event.
I ordered a large and to my surprise, no gap at buttons.
Make sure to order by bust inches and not typical size.
Excellent fit! I received within 5 days of ordering with standard shipping!

I have the pinstripe skirt and this compliments it as a set. I have a cameo which I think will enhance the look of the collar as well.

This blouse looks good and fit my girl friend good. Sizing seems to be right, the blouse is very well made. It is also price $10 higher than the same exact blouse from another vendor and that vendor does not charge shipping. I over payed by $24, shop around.

Well made and good quality. It would've been better to order 1 size larger as it seems tight and doesn't align with the size chart. I hope it doesn't shrink very much.

The photo suggests the blouse is gray, but it is as advertised - black and white stripes. Good quality. A very smart addition to my Dickens Faire outfit. Received several compliments. Read the hints on sizing. I did, and it fits perfectly.

I am a plus sized person, so finding clothes, especially historical looking clothes for me is not easy. I ordered 2 of these blouses, one for me and one for my sister. They were EXCELLENT. They fit, they were comfortable, they looked period...it was great! If I could, I would post a picture of myself and my sister in them...but you can just imagine. We dressed as Gibson Girls. Everyone loved our outfits!
