Dinner date!

The tie is of good quality, and it is very easy to take on and off. It also comes with a sparkly pin, which is a nice addition to the tie. Definitely would recommend for weddings or formal occasions.

Daily public wear.

It’s just what I wanted

I needed a tie to wear for a charles dickens Christmas party and it worked perfectly.

Good for 1800s cosplay and such.

I'm wearing it to a formal 20's Gatsby style outdoor wedding, in a week. I will submit photos.

Wore this to a wedding this weekend. It was the perfect crowning touch to my Cowboy cut tux and western vest. Looks as good as the pictures here and it arrived early. I have never been disappointed in anything I have ordered from this business. The wedding photographer kept taking photos and said we were the best dressed couple. I got a ton of compliments and was amused at how many folks wanted a picture with me. Did I mention I love the tie?

Delivered faster than expected. A very nice tie!

Looks great, love the color, received 2 days after placing order.

I don’t put reviews on anything never really care enough to I guess. But I bought this tie for my wedding and it is beautiful and soft and the material is very nice the adjustable neck strap is wonderful especially cause I have a rather larger build. Over all worth the money for sure

fab tie

This petticoat is tha perfect touch to wear under your historical skirt or dress--just the right amount of fullness to make it prettuer!

We went to the Great Dickens Christmas Fair and enjoyed :-)

This is grea as I can either wear alone or under another skirt

Nice petticoat. Cotton is thicker material then expected.

I purchased this petticoat so that I wouldn't have to make myself one for an upcoming event. I was hopeful that it would fit. Sadly I am right at the end of the size chart this this was just a bit snug. That's ok, I was able to let my niece use it she is much smaller than I am and the extra fullness was good under her 1890s walking skirt. The fabric was lovely and soft. And shipping was super quick.

The slip is nicely made with a soft fabric that washed and dried nicely. I'm tall and it hits me at my ankles, which is fine.

This is the perfect petticoat. Not to bulky and works well under all of my bustle skirts!!!

Just the perfect layer I needed below a few of my bustle skirts. Very soft and flowy fabric. Exactly what I had hoped for. Thank You!!!

This petticoat is so wonderful. I definitely recommend if you have any of the walking skirts. It is super soft and really feels great under the skirt.

I've always been very pleased with the quality and price of these petticoats. I am a costume designer, and the first set I bought years ago are still in terrific shape after repeated washing.

Uncertain of size to order, so I went with Large. Fit good..and with the adjustable draw string, it was secured and gave a nice fullness to the black walking skirt worn over the top. The ruffled hemline gave a very nice affect and petticoat added additional warmth this early, chilly Fall.

This is too lovely to be a petticoat! I've decides to use it as a skirt too.

This petticoat is prettier than the skirt I was planning to wear!

Initially, I ordered this in an XL for my 40" waist and I had to exchange it for a large. It is a nice weight of cotton. Not so light that I fear to wear and tear it, but not so heavy that the waist tie binds. Really simply perfect. I wore it around town this winter under another skirt (or three - I'm so not used to this thing called "winter"). The extra ruffled layer that goes from just under the knee to the ground really made a difference on the wind-up-the-skirt chill factor and yet, being cotton, was not uncomfortable when indoors where this marvel called "electric heat" was up and running. Also, it is a titch longer for a section at the rear of the skirt. For the first time in my life, I found a skirt wasn't shorter in back than in front when worn with my overly large keister (I could make Kim Kardashian jealous!). In fact, that extra 2" of length is just enough to make it hang level to the ground should you decide to wear it over a bustle. Liked it so much, I bought it in white, too. :)

This is a really useful skirt. It's light and full enough for an under-skirt. I've also "cheated" and worn it as an outer-skirt in hot weather/environments. If you put a belt over the waist you can't see the drawstring, and it passes nicely for a walking skirt. I'm very happy it's 100% cotton, so it's breathable in warm weather.

This is now my favorite vest i have about six from your collection. great quality & price Thanks

Love it! Quality of the fabric and styling are excellent! Great crossover piece with a classy touch for my favorite looks -- can go from formal to casual depending what it's combined with. Something I can wear to work, church, and downtown. The rounded bottom hem works nicely for displaying a fancy belt buckle. The Large size is slightly big for my 44" chest, but the adjustable buckle in the back makes it work, sizing is comfortable without buttons straining. Love the four front pockets, plenty of options for storage. The color is better described as brown/black, not brown/navy. The darker stripe is a soft black, not a blue tone. Love the brown/black stripe as it is, coordinates with more of my shirts/pants/jackets than the brown/navy would. The vertical stripes give a subtle slimming look.

I intend to wear the vest in several upcoming event as a living historian

I already had the pants but now I needed the vest. They were out of stock on the mediums so I had to get a large & take it in. I'll def check availability. Great quality!

Bought this and the matching Ferndale Striped spats to complete my patent medicine salesman 'living history' persona and am 1000% pleased with the fit and appearance. Both items look great in the website photos but are even more impressive in person. Really liked the higher neckline on this vest and the 4 pockets in front are perfect for everything from my pocket watch to a small bottle of 'cure all'. Thanks Historical Emporium for offering such great merchandise!

I ordered the whole suit; Frock coat, pants, vest and spats. Great quality. I'm 6'2" 215lbs and the XLs are a little on the large size, but I'll be getting them tailored. Not sure if the large would have done it, so not a big issue. LOOKS GREAT. Good weight to the fabric.

This is really one good looking vest! I have quite a few of your vests and am delighted with all of them. I'm a very big vest fan; don't consider myself fully dressed without one. This is the first striped vest I've bought and it certainly won't be the last. Congrats for a terrific product!

I love the vest. Just want to mention that the navy stripes look black.

The vest was very great quality!!! It was amazing I was very satisfied! I wore it my first day back to school and I think I made an impression I got many compliments and saw many signs of envy This isn't a costume it's a real suit It's a little boxy on me since I'm a girl but other than that it was absolutely fabulous

The vest was arrived very fast, the hubby loved it. The quality is great and fits like a dream.

Very snazzy.

Beautiful vest. Just what I was looking for. Fast shipping and great service. Will be back again and again, I'm sure.

I ordered this along with the matching trousers and we pleased to see how well it fit and how well-made it was. I would definitely recommend this ensemble to anyone looking for durable non-costume period clothing.

Only worn it twice so far- but the poll of those who have seen it suggests this is winner. great stuff. I'll be back for more style thanks for the great product

Seems great. Haven't tried to wash/clean it yet but the quality is nice. Trust the tape measure. I couldn't bring myself to order a size large as 100% of my wardrobe is XL. Ended up having to exchange it. I think I could have even fit a medium. Trust the tape measure procedure they give you. Also, go a size up on the pants as suggested. The Ferndale combo looks pretty sweet.

Like looking different

The Longview Bible Shirt was exactly as described and fit to a "T. I really wish that I had discovered these people much earlier! I already have another order on the way. Clothing manufacturers have reduced the amounts of material in the names of styles and fashions in order to save money waaay past the point of imagination. I'm an old coot anyway but keeping shirt tails tucked in and sleeves approaching the elbows today are definitely challenging issues.

well made .love the way it looks and feels.great shirt..

Love my shirts

I liked how well it was made and the use of metal buttons. The shirt is a bit longer than I expected, but perhaps true to the style of it's times. I can make adjustments. Otherwise, it's going to look great at my next performance. I am going to look great. I compete in Western Dressage and my Historical Emporium attire brings a bit of class to the occasion, I am told.

Very nice shirt. We are using this on a ballet production with a western theme.

Everyday wear,

This shirt was just what I needed. I ordered a Large that was too big, but then ordered a Medium that fit better. I was refunded the original purchase quickly. Thank you!

It is a well made and well cut shirt.

My uncle is a civil war enthusiast. I gave him a hat and decided to buy this shirt. He's going to love it. I will definitely refer business

Husband loved the shirts

Needed some new shirts for cowboy action events. These shirts are perfect! Fit is great and true to size. Material and craftsmanship are top notch. Really good looking.

Great shirt! Very comfortable and interesting color and style. I haven't washed it yet so I will be very careful with the shrinkage. I will wear it in a Circuit Rider one man show.

love this shirt. So different from style of typical contemporary stuff. Is cut very big so expect it to be loose. Good fabric. Snazzy!

I love it great quality

Want to feel epic? Put one of these coats on and feel invincible. Wears comfortably, hangs and flows with just the right amount of dramatic flair to draw attention without being flashy.

Nice! Love the long design and details on the back.

i am 5'10 3/4 i asked for suggested size figuring about a 44 inch chest- about 4 inches for under clothing vest be ok but the arms wish were inch longer and bulkier around the elbows- provided it never shrinks good for late spring early fall- lining not that great sewed in and knew from ordering be too long about 3" too long really- think the stitching be better- now it does have small front pockets fits about 4 of my fingers comfortable and wonder why anyone make coat with such small pocket- then dawned on me they are a perfect size for deck of cards and Dillinger or some small hand gun that 4 fingers could grab hold of and access without fishing around in over sized pockets- i knot sure thats the reason but does seem practical- i do like the coat but for the price idk thats kinda iffy- think if took more stitching and resized the arms yeah but i still questioning the value over cost- but it is an interesting coat and i do like it fact is wore it today- it my take mom to dr's and go to bank kinda coat- but is nice in appearance

Nice coat, well made. Too long though. Would like another button or two down the front. And a way to turn the collar up to close and button around the neck. That might be a different type of coat though.

I have been looking for years for a genuine rifle coat for years when I finally got one from historical emporium and it is absolutely magnificent. Quality of materials, workmanship, and tailoring are superb. The finishing touches on the garment are just outstanding. Can’t go wrong here!

I have coveted one of these coats for a very long time, and it took a lot of searching to find what I specifically wanted. This fits the bill exactly! You can wear it anywhere and people always comment on cool it looks. I may need another one!

I bought this for my husband and he wore it to a recent show we saw. I has lovely tailoring an a great flow to the cut.

Absolutely loved the Black Rifle Coat. Lightweight, comfortable and great lines. Bought mine at my size as I intend to use it as a coat, not over coat. Will now need to get another one. :) Made the mistake of wearing it to see a musical version of Calamity Jane and upstaging the actor playing Wild Bill Hickok. Love this coat.

excelent

The coat came exactly as described. I am of average height (5'9") so it is a little long (I'll take it in to be hemmed). The sizing was exact in that it runs a little large so it can be worn over a dress jacket. Exceptional service by GE. Would definitely do business with them again.

Exactly what I ordrerd , perfect! Delivery was as communicated. If you like this type of clothing I would highly recomend this site.

This tie can be paired with an any number of blazers and outfits. Quite versatile. A nice addition to any wardrobe that projects excellence.�

Exact color to match the stitching on my shirt for my wedding. Quality made, and beautiful fabric. This company has wonderful service and super fast shipping. Very happy with all purchases from this company!

Nice

I am an actor and will wear this for a performance of a guy from the 19th century. The tie looks so great I'm going to wear it off stage also. I hope to bring it back in style.

photo coming soon

Just right in sight and fit and completes the costume perfectly! Speedy delivery as well.

everything I get from you is just awesome!

I love this puff tie! Looks even better in reality! Nice pattern in a warm cream tone, easy to put on and comes ready with a tie tack. Underlines a sophisticated look. Even the people at a gourmet restaurant who should be used to dressy looks seemed to be astonished - just wonderful!

Easy to put on. Nice design. Great Fabric. High quality at a low low price!

Great product. Great Quality.

Excellent quality. Matches the vest I have.

Loved the puff tie. Very nice quality. This is the third one we've purchased for my husband, and they've all totally lived up to our expectations. Great for our living history tour costumes!

Very nice puff tie. Good quality, well made.

Bought to ride in - look and feel awesome!

I participate in Spanish Classical dressage tournaments and working equitation clinics. This is lovely material and feminine and you do not need to wear leggings with it like you do with some of the Spanish designs. I cannot wait to ride in it. It can also have an old west look to it. It's perfect!

No occasion just like wearing them

I have several costumes for riding sidesaddle and needed something for a western look with various vests and jackets. These fit well, do not seem to bind and are slim looking around the waist and hips. I may hand wash as I don't want to change the fit one iota!! Lovely product, thank you!

I like this riding skirt very much. The quality of the workmanship is superb. This is the best made garment I have found in nearly 60 years. The quality of the fabric is excellent as is the quality of the notions. I appreciate greatly the depth of the pockets. I will be ordering additional riding skirts as well as other garments from you. Thank you for making not only a superb quality garment, but also a garment that a lady can wear anywhere and feel modestly dressed

I bought these riding pants in both black and denim. They fit , wear and wash beautifully. I love every item I have ever purchased a Historical Emporium. I wear the blouses on a daily basis. I have been your customer for quite a few years and have never been disappointed in the quality of the clothing and the service is excellent!

Runs small, but this is a great purchase. Very pleased with the quality! Editor's note: Based on customer feedback, we have revised the sizing of this garment. Please check the sizing chart.

This is my second pair of Classic Riding Pants and I love them. They fit well (use the sizing chart), drape beautifully, and I like the longer length as just about any style of shoe or boot looks great. The fabric is soft but sturdy. Does require ironing or quick touch up. I've worn these riding pants with several Historical Emporium blouses, off the rack blouses, and casual pull over shirts. AND, there are two deep pockets! Bonus!

The riding pants are great. Love the fabric and full skirt. Use the size chart!

This is a beautifully crafted cotton skirt. Soft nice weight. Can easily be worn for dress or play depending on what you wear with it.

Now these pants are just about perfect in fit, style and fabric. The fit is perfect.

These pants are full length and very comfortable. Just what I was looking for! I wear them to church as an alternative to dresses so I can scurry after the little ones and maintain my modesty. I would suggest these to anyone!

BOUGHT THESE FOR MY WIFE WILD JOSIE BASSETT SHE WAS SO HAPPY....WE ROBBED THE TRAIN

The black and white shirt looks great with a black bow tie as part of my Victorian outfit I put together for strolling around the historic buildings in Greenfield Village in Dearborn, MI.

Looks great with my flat-topped, "gunfighter style" Western hat. I look forward to wearing this shirt at a special gathering during First Friday fun on Santa Fe Drive this April in Denver, Colorado.

This is a very nice quality shirt, I have found that for the money the dress shirts are the way to go. This is my 4th dress shirt, 2 from Frontier Classics and 2 from Scully, there nice shirts. Ive been harsh in the past on a (work shirt) I returned, I expected a better quality.

I wanted an authentic western shirt for my new hobby of Cowboy Action Shooting. I ran across Historical Emporium on the web and they had so many different patterns and colors of western shirts that it was difficult to make a decision. I finally decided on the Coulter style in black and white pinstripe. This is a great shirt, authentically styled and tailored and the pinstripes are visually very pleasing. Quality is quite nice and the large cut of the shirt is very comfortable. I am very pleased with the shirt.

Once again, I am simply delighted by the superior quality of this item, its authentic styling and true to size fit. It's also quite stylish and damned comfortable, to boot. I've only one, eensy problem with the shirts available here: I love french cuffs, and they simply aren't available on many of the shirts. You might want to seriously consider asking your manufacturer to offer them. Otherwise? Fine garment!

If you love the look of the Wild, Wild West, you will absolutely love the Coulter Shirt. This shirt has the perfect collar for a hand-tied bow or string tie. It is comfortable to wear and can go well with any solid-colored vest. The fit is fantastic! Best of all, it does not need dry cleaning. Machine wash in cold water and hang to dry for best results.

I ordered a Medium Coulter Shirt - and the sizing appears to run large. So, I returned it and ordered a Small, which fits perfectly (kind'a amazing because I don't wear a small *anything*!). The quality is impeccable and the shirt looks GREAT!

first words out of my young adult daughters mouth "sharp shirt Dad!" when the kids are right they are right!

very nice shirt - sizing seems a bit larger than the other coulter large that I bought - but not a problem!

And by "sweet" I mean "a fine shirt." I love it! So glad you guys are doing business. Time I bought something else. Too busy to write--gone shopping. Stick with it, guys!

I wear these shirts with the Chadwick waistcoat over the top. The shirts fit very well, and look much nicer with a waistcoat than a more modern style shirt with a pointed collar. The material and colours are lovely.

My wardrobe is not of the period type.. I was hesitant as to how it would look with my suits. It fit beautifully!! A real off-the-beaten-path touch that blends like I couldn't imagine. Great price too. Thank you.

This is a great looking tie and I really like the color.

Wore this to a function shortly after receipt. Received numerous comments on it. Quite elegant and will make the wearer "quite dashing."

This item was well made. Just what I was looking for. Good quality. Will bu again.

I really liked how it worked with my steampunk shirt and vest.

Looks great

Adds a lot to a outfit. This is my first Puff Tie.... Love the color

Beautiful ties & many favorable comments!!!

This Puff Tie is Great, LOVE the colour. The included tie pin is not too bad, though very plain. Fits well, wears well and looks good! Highly recommended.

Looks great and I get compliments on this tie all the time.

The Satin Puff arrived on time and is great. He will look great at Prom! It looks splendid with the Dragon Fire vest in Silver and Black!

Simple and adjustable. This fit me quite well and was comfortable the entire day. I highly recommend it to be worn with a vest/waist coat.

I purchased this for a costume design for Watson and it worked lovely! We were able to Quick Rig it on and off the actor so quick costume changes were possible. Will be buying time period stuff from here always!

Hope he likes it.

Very well made. Heavy frock coat. My correct size is 44R but it was too big in the shoulders. It's such a nice coat I choose to have it altered rather than spend it back.

The coat fit great and I was surprised at the quality. Looks fantastic!

Having been a Civil War reenactor for almost thirty years, in various time periods, I like the look of a frock coat. And wonder why they were ever shortened to the sack suit. The Emporium is my go-to shop for period clothing. I only wish I could afford more!

I purchased a very very nice Emerson Frock Coat - Gray Herringbone Tweed. I love it. It fits like a glove. Fast shipping but very high Custom fees. But still a great experience shopping at Historical Emporium Stores, Thanks.

The Emerson Frock Coat is very well put-together. It's a little heavier than I was expecting. Not too much so but, with a cardigan, would make for a quite reasonable Fall weight overcoat. The inner pocket is a bit higher than one might expect, but not at all difficult to access. Just an adjustment going from my Coburn to this (plus left/right transition). Very happy with the build quality, fit, and finish.

This coat is exactly what I was looking for it is well worth the $$$$

Just what I needed for a slightly less formal frock coat.

As advertised. Great Quality
