I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the garment I ordered. From the photos I was afraid the fabric would be very thin, but when it arrived I realized I was wrong. I am sure this shirt will last me for years to come crawling through early 20th century mines.
Really nicely made and exactly what I needed. I like that it's available in plus size and that it's cotton. Nothing more I could've asked for!
Love it, fits great, didn't even have to move the buttons! I think I need 20 more. Its a great staple blouse, good construction and quality.

I love the style of the Gibson blouse, however, I returned it.
I purchased two different styles of blouses and returned this one.
I usually wear a "small" size. I ordered both blouses in the size "medium".
For me, the neckline and cuffs on the Gibson blouse were too tight.
I would recommend ordering one size larger.
The fabric on the Gibson Blouse was a lighter weight than I expected.
I kept the other blouse and enjoy wearing it.
Historical Emporium accepted my return of the Gibson Blouse.
I will be ordering from them again.

I took a chance & ordered this blouse online. I usually like to try on clothes & examine the material before I buy. It fits perfectly! I am very pleased with the feel of the cotton material. I can't wait to wear it on Christmas day. I wanted an "old fashion" look!

This is a quality product with great construction and material. This will be a great basic for many historical costume events. The shipping was fast and it was nicely packaged.
I bought a large based on the sizing chart and the body fits perfectly but the neck and cuffs are meant to fit close and these dimensions should be part of the sizing chart. Also the length of the arm. I found the arms a bit short and the neck and cuffs a bit tight. It is wearable but I would have sized up if I had seen those measurements in advance.

Sizing was very accurate and quality of material very good. I followed the washing instruction provided and the blouse has kept its integrity.

This was my first order with HE, sort of a "test balloon," and it went perfectly. The description warned that the blouses ran a bit small, so if in doubt, order up a size, and I did. Perfect fit. The event for which I need the blouse isn't until October, so I will be doing some more shopping!

This blouse was perfect for what I needed. Working at a museum I sometimes need to dress in costume on certain occasions and this will be perfect for those times. It fit true to size so stick to the size chart and you'll do just fine. I will recommend Historical Emporium to the rest of my staff.

This is a nice blouse that looks very nice when used with the navy blue suit that was pictured together. The size chart let me down this time. The neck is too small and the bust is a little snug. I am thinking about exchanging.

I ordered this blouse for my daughter's history fair. She had to dress up as a historical figure she researched. This blouse was made with good quality fabric, and it's totally different from cheap thin material that you usually see at a costume store. I was very happy with the quality.

The construction of the shirt, the fabric, cut, and so forth are amazing. However, the sleeves are too short for my arms, leaving me with limited arm mobility when the cuffs are buttoned. Other than that, I love it. If you have long arms (I'm 6 feet tall), this may not be a great shirt for you completely buttoned. However, it's wearable, and it is a beautiful, well made shirt.
