A must have with the Edwardian Suit.
My wife picked this out to go with the Edwardian Suit. It looks great with the suit and jabot. We are excited to attend the next event in a good-looking kit.

Perfect but be sure your iron works
I ordered this blouse for a play I'm in, and the look is Perfect!! The attention to detail (appropriate tucks, long cuffs, etc) is excellent. Shipping was incredibly fast and email communication was great. I am delighted to have found this store - I love having an alternative to the (apologies in advance) - "cheap stuff from C..." that seems to be the only option on Amazon. My only quibble (and it really is just a quibble) - I washed it so that it wouldn't look brand new. It washed fine, no shrinkage or anything... But ironing it... Oh man. It takes a LOT of ironing! Ha, I guess it's been a long time since I owned anything that was pure cotton, I'd forgotten how hard it is to get the wrinkles out. ;) Eventually I went out and bought a new iron! LoL (And yeah, I know this sounds kind of contrary: "so she doesn't want it to look brand new, but she's fussing about getting it perfectly ironed." I can only say there's a difference between straight-out-of-the-box and used-but-tidy, which fits the character I'm supposed to portray.) Overall, I'm really happy with the item and will definitely turn to the Historical Emporium for future costume needs!

Wonderful memories
During the summers of 1969 and 1970, I worked on Main Street in Disneyland. I wore a Gibson Girl blouse, long pink linen skirt with a pink gingham waist belt that tied into a large bow in the back. For this coming Halloween, I'm going to dress as a Gibson Girl. The blouse from Historical Emporium is PERFECT! to complete my outfit: Thank you.

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.

Classic Gibson - White
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!

Tight collar and cuffs
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.

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 is my second blouse and I like it but I have to again alter collar as it’s just too tall and uncomfortable to wear as is. I love the sleeves and I probably won’t add the darts like I did on my previous purchase. All in all it is a good quality item and very versatile.

I returned this Blouse to you as it was not exactly what I was looking for. I desire a button-up-the-back with high stand-up collar, long-sleeved blouse and in white and another in black. (No ruffles or lace). The fronts of the desired blouses may have a raised "emblem" type design resting under the collar but be no lower than between the breast area.

Darlington Blouse
Beautiful Blouse! It fits very well and the quality is superior. I have not washed it yet but even if it shrinks a bit the gathers across the back of the shoulders will ensure it will still fit. My husband and I are a professional Santa and Mrs. Claus team and entertain at Christmas events. I bought the blouse, along with the dark green Evelyn skirt, for my Mrs. Claus outfit. It looks great with a red Christmas apron and my other accessories. When I wore it for a "practice run" all our family and friends said "WOW" .

This is so pretty and not too frilly. I am large busted and it doesn't emphasize that. Will look good with jeans or a riding skirt. The material is high quality and the eyelet adds a lovely feminine touch. It does run slightly generous so I washed it once and that helped. Also the cuffs are large; my wrists are small and I may take up the seam just a little.

I found this blouse to be beautiful, soft, well-constructed and comfortable to wear. I was looking for something with a bit more unstructured fit, and this is perfect. It accommodates my DD chest and looks attractive without being too big. The collar and cuffs are fitted without being tight. It is so perfect with the twill bustle skirt!

Love this blouse!
My reenactment involves light hiking so I was afraid to get a pretty white blouse that would show every speck of dirt. I really liked the pinstriped blouse for its crisp appearance and slight formality compared to a colored blouse. I found it ran a little smaller than I expected, possibly because it is shaped more than less tailored blouses. The next size up was perfect. I love the sleeves and the beautifully gathered back yoke. It looks fantastic with the black walking skirt, and goes beautifully with my various silver vintage belt buckles on black cloth belts. I originally chose it because it reminded me of a Victorian-look pinstriped blouse with front ruffles and puffed sleeves that I already owned, but the front ruffles had serger-stitched edges - which just looked wrong. This blouse looks perfect - every bit as good as I hoped for!

Purchased as part of a costume to play the role of a schoolmarm at the historical society. The cloth was soft and substantial. Very much like a shirt I would buy for everyday wear. I appreciated that it was long enough to tuck into my skirt without pulling out. Will definitely buy more from Historical Emporium!

Great Quality
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.

Adjusted Satisfaction
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.

Love this
I think this blouse really nails the vintage look and feel that it was trying for. Not too sheer for a while blouse, which is good. I'm glad that someone said it runs small--it sure does. I'm not big at all, especially on top, and the Medium JUST about fits me. Size up but give it a try. It's very pretty.

Crisp, smart blouse
This was my first purchase from the Emporium, after browsing and coveting for a long time. I needed a new blouse to replace my old favorite one: I wanted a white blouse that was feminine without being overly fussy, was short-sleeved, and had detailing that could work for a steampunk ensemble or modern work attire. This fit the bill perfectly! The sizing chart was accurate, and the blouse fits me well. The fabric is sturdy but still lightweight, without being overly sheer like too many women's blouses are nowadays. Shipping was timely, too. I definitely will make more purchases in the future!

Abbington Blouse
The blouse is a lovely fabric with elegant lace trim very comfortable to wear. As I like to wear my blouse over my skirt, a tapering design at the back, might have been an added feature enabling it to be worn inside or out side the skirt giving more costume options. There are two features that I would have liked: 1. another button in the collar to hold the collar more correctly 2. better button placement in the breast area so it doesn't open at the bra! Other than those comments, I feel it to be a good period blouse suited to many outfits.

BEAUTIFUL!!!
I love this blouse! It is better made than most of the clothes you see these days - and the result is absolutely beautiful. I bought a really large size (2xl) because I have fairly large "girls" and figured I could shrink it if it was over the top (100% good cotton), and that's exactly what I did. The sleeves were still a little long so, unfortunately, even though they are sooooo pretty, I cuffed them. That works fine and it is still something to treasure. So if you don't want to shrink yours, be sure to use cold water and line dry! I love this so much and since we are taking our show on the road next year, I will buying 1 or 2 more for backup.

This is a pretty blouse and I actually ordered it first, and returned it, from another company. The problem, imo, is that the base color has a slight yellowish cast to it when compared to the lace material, which is more ecru. Normally I am not fussy, but yellow is not a good color on me. Nonetheless, I kept it since the problem appears to occur across varying suppliers.

Very nice blouse. I'm typically between a Medium and a Large. I ordered a Large to avoid any chance of the buttons pulling at the breast-line (my problem area). The Large is probably a bit larger than I needed, but nothing a good hot wash and a hot dry couldn't fix. Love the blouse. Great quality.

Want very much to give this blouse a five star rating because it's lovely. However I ordered a size 4X and it is small. I normally order 3X but wanted a roomier fit so am disappointed that the sizing is off. Can wear it but it's tight. I wish it was more comfortable.

I went to a birthday party and wore a black notch-collared vest and satin, pencil-legged pants. I thought that the Victorian-styled blouse with ruffles at chest and ruffled sleeves would complement the ensemble nicely giving it a vintage and classy look. It did! The item was affordable, arrived right on time, was a comfortable fit and exceeded my expectations.

Lovely blouse.....
Bought this as part of a saloon entertainer outfit. Love the style and I especially appreciate the short sleeves as performing during the summer in Texas is just plain hot, even indoors. It looks great with my Lydia skirt. Substantial material - way better than costume quality. The sleeve style is delightful as well. Historical Emporium does need a better photo of this black blouse The ruffles and the sleeve details do not show well in the existing photo.

This is a beautiful blouse. Well made, nice fabric, stylish, and true black color. I used the size chart, but for me the fit is a bit tight in the back, which appears, according to the model photos, to be normal for this blouse. It's not uncomfortable, and the front does not pull, it's just tighter than I expected. This will wear well under a vest or underbust corset.

Ouch!
This beautiful blouse is lined with the scratchiest sleeve heads (to make the sleeves stand out.) They are so abrasive that they made red welts on my shoulders. Fortunately, I was able to cover the raw edge of the sleeve head with some bias tape. Now the blouse is as comfortable as it is beautiful. The fabric is very good quality and in the workmanship other than the sleeve heads is excellent. The fit is mostly as specified. The cuffs on the sleeves are a bit peculiar in that they are cylindrical in shape rather than tapering toward the wrist. I can set over the buttons to make them look right, but the forearm is not cylindrical in shape and the long cuffs should not be either.

This blouse arrived quickly & was packaged well. It's beautiful & I received many compliments when I wore it as part of my Edwardian outfit in a parade. The only reason I had to give it 4 instead of 5 stars is that the stitching inside the shoulders is very scratchy.

Comfortable Costume
I needed a roomier blouse to wear for walking tours. This blouse, though not "authentic" gives the impression, fits well, and is room enough to enjoy wearing it in hot, active situations.

Perfect
I wore this blouse for an 1894 costume while attending a Victorian Garden Party. It was perfect. The fit was just as expected. It is well-made. If you need a blouse like this, you can't go wrong getting this one.

Wish it came in different fabrics
I love this shirt! The only drawback is that it is 100% cotton, so it requires ironing. (Good for authenticity; not good for regular wear.) It would be nice if some of the clothing had "easy care" fabric-blend options.

Beautiful Blouse
This is a beautiful blouse but the fit was off on me. It gapped at the bust& the shoulders were a smidge too small but the sleeves were too long. Again, a lovely, well made blouse but just didn’t fit my athletic body type which is the ONLY reason I gave it 4 stars & not 5.

Lovely blouse with good fit
I used the provided size guide and found it accurate. This is a lovely blouse, well-made, detailed, and well-finished. High quality, just like everything else I have purchased from Historical Emporium.

Abbington Blouse
This blouse was pretty true to size, but did shrink slightly in the cold water wash, which was great for me. The blouse needs to be a bit more fitted, but a few darts will solve the problem, as wearing a corset gives it much more structure and period authenticity. The blouse would be even greater if it was lined, as the material allows the corset to show, so must wear a corset cover. Overall, I love this blouse!

Beautiful but sizing all wrong
I was amazed at how beautiful this blouset was. The details and workmanship were just wonderful. There were two problems though. I had to get a 2XL based on the measurement chart. I have never been even close to 2XL in my life. I would probably get the 1XL size for a blouse from Historical Emporium next time I order and I will buy again. But this blouse fits fine. I swear that the sleeves were the length of an orangutan's arms. I had to cut 4-5 inches off of them. Luckily I can sew and the sleeves/cuffs were sewn on in such a manner that the sleeve was easily separated from the cuff, sleeve shortened, and sewed back so that you can not tell that the cuff was ever touched. I am 5'6" and have a normal arm length. I think someone who is shorter than I, but still fits the sizing, will have a much bigger problem. Note that I had the same problem, and will be making this same comment, on the Tabitha outfit. I hope HE can correct this sizing problem. I may not always be able to accommodate the construction changes that will probably be necessary. Good thing I sew well, just to lazy to make my own outfits.

Fits Perfectly
This is a marvelous shirt. I am a big girl and have difficulty finding clothing to fit. This is a size 28 and it's as though they used my own measurements to make the shirt. It's comfortable, it's pretty. I also bought one in black. I could wear these for everyday wear, I love them so much

This is a lovely, soft, well made blouse. I read the sizing information and it fit perfectly. It does have a long tail so might not be good for very short ladies, but for me it was perfect. Also bought it in black. These blouses will go well with my Victorian walking skirts.

Fits well
I am a 6' tall woman and I normally wear a 24 or a 3x. I ordered th 28 and it fits well. It's a little more sheer than I thought it would be bit I have found a camisole that I think will work. I am a Mrs. Claus and I wanted something that would look less cartoonish.

Not as white as the picture
This blouse looks pure white in the picture, but is really ivory (which didn't match my intended skirt). Otherwise, I liked the fit on my slim, flat-chested body. The detached jabot collar doesn't really fit well around the blouse collar, so I probably would never wear it.

Beautiful Blouse
Ok, so this Blouse is Absolutely Beautiful BUT, Reading the Reviews didn't help me this time. I guess this Blouse runs really Small for Most people. I normally wear a medium but and was gonna order a Large BUT based on the reviews I Ordered an XL and its too Big. Its not a "sloppy" Big so im keeping it, but had I Known I would have just ordered a Large. So Ladies if youre Not too Overly Heavy Chested then just order one size up. I could have returned this shirt But to me this Clothing shop penalizes customers for returns. I shouldn't have to pay for shipping just for an exchange. Also, this Blouse isn't white white bright like I thought. My mistake I guess. but anyway, shipping was fast and I love the blouse so, I would give it 4 stars.

Ruched Sleeve Blouse
I love the ruched sleeve blouse. The fabric and workman ship are top notch. However, sadly, I will be returning the blouse. I ordered a size 3X and found that the shoulders were too wide and the waist was too tight. Overall the garment did not fit. I would give the style and fabric 5 stars but the fit only 2 stars.

Nice blouse
I am not a re-enactor. I am a lover of history and period clothing, which is why Historical Emporium is such a "gem" for me. The vesta blouse in white meets expectations for a non-cotton blouse. The color is not a bright white, thankfully, the fabric suitable for a polyester--it is not a heavy material and will wear well during warm days. I love that three different looks can be achieved with the jabot and collar. The blouse is easy to iron, a big plus. I used the sizing chart provided, but sized up one and the fit is perfect. Very pleased with the price and quality. I'll wear this often.

Darling - but
The Vista blouse is super cute --- but the sizing is off. Based on reviews, I upped my size to M (38) from my usual Petite Small,(American size 6). That was good. BUT the fitted waist was way, way too tight. Sadly I had to return it -- and I loved the design!

Size and quality
It is a beautiful and well made blouse, however, the size 2X fit perfectly in the bust, but the neck and sleeves were WAY too big/long. So, I ordered an XL. It fit better in the arms and neck, but not at all in the bust. I returned the XL and will need to have alternations made for the 2XL. For now I've pinned the sleeves rather than move the buttons, and took two "tucks" in the neck. Delivery on both orders was excellent, and the return process very easy to follow.

High Quality
The quality of this blouse is very good. It's a true cream/ivory. The bust size was accurate. I will add that the wrist size is enormous and most will have to take it in on that larger size. A minor bit of sewing skill required to simply move the buttons to size no problem. I do recommend this blouse for reenactments, cosplay, EGL, and if you want to feel fancy!

I was extremely pleased with this blouse. I got tons of compliments on my costume. I ordered a Large based on my bust measurements - probably could have gotten the Medium, but the fit was good nonetheless.

Needed a more formal blouse to go with a fancy Wash Day bustle skirt I sewed. This fit the bill perfectly. Well made, but fits quite snug in the bust while having almost hilariously long sleeves. Luckily a wash shrunk the cotton enough so that I did not need to alter the sleeves to make wearing feasible. Shoulder area fits per size. Next time I will order up a size. Lace is very pretty, love the ribbon detail on the sleeves, I got lots of compliments and your blouse ended up on the front page of the local paper!

Pretty
Be very careful when ordering blouses. Each item has its own sizing chart, based on your fullest chest measurement. For those of us who are not the average, the sizing requires that we buy a blouse that is sized much larger than the mainstream clothing brands. As the size of the blouse increases, so do the shoulder, waist and sleeve length. In my case, I usually wear a medium, or perhaps a large blouse, and can have it in petite to fit my 5'4" frame. For this blouse I needed an XL to fit my chest, but then had to hire a seamstress to take up the sleeves and pull in the shoulder seams. My $60 blouse now costs me $90!

Lovely blouse, but too small
I ordered this blouse for a special event in which I had a time deadline. When I received the blouse I was totally in love with the look, the design and the quality. Unfortunately, the size was a problem. I normally always wear a medium in a blouse. This blouse was considerably smaller than the mediums that I have purchased in the past. Due to a deadline, I was unable to return the blouse for a larger size. I opted for a bit of my own tailoring. I let out the front darts and found it wearable. I was so sorry about the fit, otherwise I would have given the blouse 5 stars.

I bought this blouse to go with a black and cream skirt that I had previously purchased from Historical Emporium. It matched just perfectly. Very lady like. Received lots of compliments when I wore it to the Victorian Museum that I volunteer at. It is comfortable and very flattering. Thank you once again for a beautiful item.

Beautiful and Well-Made!
I bought this blouse as a present for my period-clothing-obsessed daughter's fifteenth birthday. She LOVES it. The styling is beautiful and comfortable (the medium is a *tiny* bit tight on her 34C/D chest, but the ruffling hides that), and the blouse seems to be quite well-made. As a busy mom, I love that it's machine washable. I got this to go with the Victorian Walking Skirt in navy (also a birthday present for her), and they look lovely together. If you're looking for a Victorian-style blouse, this is a great choice.
