The skirt is very well made and I appreciate that it is adjustable at the waist. Fabric feels durable and the seams solid.
I received the cotton twill walking skirt in red. It is a beautiful rich red and heavy twill fabric. I was impressed with the quality of the skirt and workmanship. It was too long for me as I am short but would be a great length for taller gals.
This skirt is absolutely beautiful. It fits perfectly in the waist and after it was washed the length was perfect as well. The fabric quality is very nice and the buttons in the back are easy to use and look great!
Very well made.
Exactly what I wanted except it was too long and had to cut 3” off. Will most likely buy from you again.
fits beautifully. I’m 5‘9“ and It’s floor length on me. Very comfortable. I wore it all day for the Ren fair. I’ll also be using it in everyday life. My only problem with it is that the hem likes to roll at the bottom.
First, I tried making my own…then I bought from Historic Emporium. The skirt fits and is very well made. I will use it often for my Suffragette costume 👍
Well made, very comfortable. The one I bought 6 years ago has been proved to be very durable. I wear it every weekend for 7 months/year and it still looks great!
Hi.I like my black twill skirt & might buy it in blue.
everything about it is perfect except the color. i ordered black and it is very clearly a navy, dark blue.
Nice quality. Well constructed.
Nice heavy-weight fabric, not flimsy or see-through, but neither is it heavy or cumbersome. I needed to hem it for my height, and this was easy to do. Irons easily. It's a beautiful skirt and has a flat, flattering line along the waist, and the size is adjustable without using elastic.
I will not wear it. Way too big. Waited for delivery of a crinoline, but it did not help. Am sending it back. Well-made and the material is very nice, but no way to adjust it. Too much material in the back.
I kept the riding skirt, returned
We attended a western black tie wedding. I loved the quality and fit of my skirt however I am 5'2" and the skirt was way too long or made for a crinoline. I had to roll the top and cover with a wide belt which worked fine.
I will wear it at the DAR house, Lewes, Delaware. We just completed a renovation of our 1890 kitchen. This will be the perfect outfit as a hostess.
I usually sew my own clothes but it was delightful to have someone else sew for me. The fit was perfect... I am tall and it's just the right length . Thank you!

I love this skirt! I was looking for a long cotton skirt, and this was perfect! The material is strong and durable, while also being soft and stylish. Just a word of warning for any short ladies, you may need to have it altered a little bit, because it is very long, but other than that- it's perfect!
I placed an order for three items. One was out of stock but the other two shipped. Received those two quickly and for a reasonable price. Thank you!
This skirt is perfect for my volunteer job at a state park with a late 1800's theme. My only complaint is the length of the skirt is ridiculously long. I had to shorten it TEN inches!
Very much like the color. Much too long, of course, but I had to order for the waist measurement and length can be adjusted. Also like that it arrived quickly.
love it, its a little too wide for me even with the additional buttons on the back but apart from that its perfect.i cant agree with the other reviews saying that its too long, im 5'1 and it doesnt even reach the floor when i wear it with my boots which i am very happy about
Wonderful quality skirt, absolutely love it. Made me realize I'm on the shorter end of the spectrum, I'm going to have to hem it a few inches to keep from tripping over myself, but that's a me problem. Thick, high quality material and stitching, I'm going to be enjoying this skirt for a long time. My only complaint is that the buttons are extremely cheap little plastic things, I think I'll be replacing them.
with impeccable quality. It is a lovely fit!
Am Abby in Arsenic and Old Lace. I am thrilled with both tge blouse and skirt. All I had to do was take it up .
It would have been nice to have length choices. I am going to have to cut off quite a bit. I am 5'4" (without shoes).
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.
We went to the Great Dickens Christmas Fair and enjoyed :-)
I bought this to go with a Top I had also purchased. I exchanged the medium for a large because of snugness. I love the quality of the fabric. I will wear it to an annual Victorian Feast held in our historical state park every year
Gave tour of a one room schoolhouse.
Some women friends and I are attending a Victorian Holiday Tea in December and we're all trying to dress in period costume. This skirt (and accompanying blouse) is just perfect. When I tried it on, my husband said "Wow! Now I want to go to the Tea too."
I can use this outfit two or three times a year.
All I have to do is shorten the skirt a couple inches, otherwise, I'll be dusting the floor as I walk.
This skirt is the perfect length for me and the adjustability of the buttons in the back makes the fit perfect. It's well made with a quality, somewhat heavy fabric, but easy to care for.
