I am a tour guide at our local Railway Museum. I dress in clothes close to what would have been worn around here in 1910. I love the clothes I've gotten from Historical Emporium for several reasons: First they are all very well made, using good quality fabrics. Second they are reasonably priced. Third, I usually receive them within a week of the time I order them. Fourth, they are comfortable and look good and like the period. So far I've purchased a suit, 2 skirts, and at least 5 blouses. I have 2 tips for people buying for the first time: 1. read the sizing tables and reviews to insure you get the correct sizes on the blouses. Because of their construction, some blouses are more fitted than others, so you may need to order a size or two larger. 2. The skirts are usually long, so read the descriptions. This skirt, like the others I've ordered, is 41 inches long. I'll be cutting it shorter to fit me because I'm way too short to wear such a long skirt. I am able to make a simple modification like that myself, but if you don't sew, you'll need to find a way to shorten the hem if it's too long for you.

Hi Historical. I Soo love my new denim skirt. Why? Because the fabric is perfect for all seasons. B/c I'm tall & it falls to my ankles which I needed. B/c as a Christian this skirt covers my need for modesty. And b/c it's fun to wear. When I twirl around & the skirt's hem balloons out over my shoes, I'm in a ladies paradise. I will be buying more skirts. Also, I"ll wear this skirt everyday. Thanks for being a great company. Sincerely, Ms Neal.

This is a great vintage-looking skirt but not awkward to wear (once I shortened it, since I'm 5' 2".) It's described as denim-colored twill but the one I received was actually a light-weight real denim. Doesn't give off blue-jean vibes but maybe something you should be aware of.
