Great!
Definitely get the shirt heavily starched or make your own from rice flour. The collar should always be very stiff.

My husband is a tall thin guy and the small was a perfect fit for him. It looks great and the buttons and stitching is very high quality. Would definitely buy again from these guys.

Excelsior!
I am into Steampunk, and this is the conclusion of attire I needed in its creation. I had several other shirts that just couldn't fit the bill for various different reasons. When I put the shirt on with my other clothes and then finally the face mask I created, the shirt gave an added debonair look that made me say only one thing. "EXCELSIOR!!"

Our grand daughter has chosen the theme of late Victorian for her wedding. Her colors are red and Gold. The first coat, shirt and pants that I ordered were too big and I needed to return them for the next smaller size. The exchange was accomplished within 5 days. A company rep. was very helpful when I called about the problem. The replacement garments are a good fit although I will need a small alteration to the vest because my middle is larger than my chest. Quality & workmanship of clothing is excellent and I expect that they will last for many years.... and Never go out of style. Thank you! I plan to order additional items in future.

Looks and feels authentic
I bought this shirt as part of my 1880's costume. It looks great and fits almost like tailor-made. The only thing "bad" I could say about it is that the fabric seems a little on the thin side, but this is really a very minor point.

Superb quality and exactly what I was looking for. Due to my short size I needed a large neck and chest size and this works perfectly. The sleve length was quite long however. I wish that there had been a sleeve length in same size 8 inches shorter. But, I have a Tailor that can take care of that. So, I couldn't be happier with this shirt. I may just get a couple more.

Great shirt... after modifying it with rear collar button to accept a separate collar (as pictured on the web site, though the use of pinning the collar on it for the picture). Next time, advertise items as they REALLY are shipped! [editor's note: this item is not pictured with a separate detachable collar. The shirt ships as shown.]

Pleated Dress Shirt
Generally pleased with it. Well constructed, quality shirt. For me, collar too large for sleeve length. Would but more if you had tall thin sizes. I've adjusted the collar down to a 16 1/2, and adjusted the detachable collars I purchased so that they fit.

Beautiful shirt! For anyone who finds themselves in the same situation I found myself in... I am right between a 'Large' and a 'Medium' on their sizing charts. Tried both and ended up keeping the Medium. But in the end, the shirt and the service are wonderful.

A Good Choice
Nice looking lightweight shirt which wears well even during hot summer days in the south. Craftsmanship and material quality are wonderful. With the addition of a small 2-hole button on the collar loop this shirt adapts nicely to the add-on collars, which provides a lot of different looks from one shirt. A distinctive styleed shirt that goes with everything. This is a good choice to keep in your wardrobe.

Excellent but wide in the waist
Purchased a Medium. My usual size is 38-40. Shirt is great but still a bit large for a 38 size. too wide especially in the waist area. Don't know if size Small would be any slimmer in the waist since this is most likely a traditional 'period' style shirt (wider and voluminous). Happy with the Medium size. Great fabric and style. Comfortable. Consider it a good buy.

Pleated Shirt
I purchased this shirt at the same time as the gambler shirt. They are essentially the same shirt. One has the pleats sewn down, the other does not. One has a loop at the back neck to hold a tie, the other does not. They are both bibfront designs. Only the wearer would know the difference. I sewed buttons onto the back of the necks to use detachable collars. Since the fronts close with a stud, this works quite well. The style and cut are quite proper and ample.

Excellent quality, accurate sizing
This isn’t a costume shirt, it’s a dress shirt designed to the style of a former era, so I expected a lot and it is nearly perfect. Purchased for a Regency/Bridgerton costume to wear with vest and stock. My husband has sensory issues (autism, ADHD) so nothing but a cotton or linen shirt works. This was the only 100% cotton one I found. Seams and buttonholes are dress shirt quality, as expected. No loose threads. Collar has a loop on the back to secure a tie. Collar is double thickness and opaque, stands up on its own but will need ironing and starching. Body of the shirt is slightly translucent - without a vest, an undershirt will be necessary, but it will be cool in summer. Cut is era-appropriately boxy to loose. Lots of ease across the back with pleating. My husband is a chest size 44, but shoulders are 46 so we ordered XL. Turns out he could have sized down to L, as the shoulders are 1/2” past his natural shoulder, but as Regent shoulders were drop shoulders anyway, we’re keeping it. My husband is 6’, but with a 31” inseam so his torso fits like a 6’2” person. The length is perfect, and even at 6’4” you likely could get away with it, though it may be a little harder to keep tucked in is you’re doing more than walking and sitting. We’re very pleased with the shirt and I suspect he’ll look for other occasions and ways to wear it, because it’s so comfy. Photos are hung up wet to drip dry. Relatively wrinkle free, but needs ironing and collar...

Expensive choice
I give mixed reviews on the Viceroy shirt. I paid $94 to have it delivered. It is a comfortable cotton shirt but that's where the complements end. The sleeves were 38" long - I needed 32". You would think for that price they would have better options for an XL shirt.

Victorian Mens Dress Shirt - Wing Tip
Although I have not worn it yet, I did try it on. It fits well, the sizing guide was correct. The only disappointment was the buttons. I had to change them out to white bone buttons, which I will again change out to white glass buttons when I have more time. When trying to recreate a period look, clear plastic buttons is not the way to go. Otherwise no complaints. It shipped faster than I thought it wood and seemed to have it overnight.

Great quality, Check your measurements.
This is a quality product! When the product arrives, the material feels thin; but after one run through the laundry the material fills out and you can appreciate the quality of the cotton and the stitching. MAKE SURE that you measure yourself using the instructions provided at Historical Emporium's web site for best fit. If you find yourself at the larger end of the sizing, go a size up as a loose fit will look more authentic and will be more comfortable. You will have to iron this shirt, it is 100% cotton. I have found it best to tumble dry for a few minutes to remove excess water, then hang dry for best wear. Hope this helps.

Best Halloween Ever
I purchased the Victorian Men's Dress Shirt with the High Stand Collar in black for my steampunk Halloween costume. I paired it with the Crimson Commander's Vest for a factory forman/ engineer look. Following the sizing guide I was a bit nervous of the fit, being a Plus-sized gentleman. I was quite surprised to find the product properly enveloped me. For once I have an awesome costume that isn't being unduely stretched by my figure. Will Buy Again.

This will be adequate to meet my needs.
I use this as an undergarment for an 18th century character in an educational program. I ordered the smallest size available but it is still a bit large for me. It will do since it is mostly covered up. I mainly wanted it for the ruffles.

Pirate shirt
I bought this shirt to wear as part of a pirate costume for a costume ball. It fits nicely and I like the material. The neck is a little tight, but they said it would be. My wife made some minor alterations there, which helps a lot.

Very nice. Very soft.
The final step in creating my "The Duellists" look. After the first wash it smoothed right ou and came out incredibly soft. I'm fighting the urge to dye the jobot black, to match that worn by Harvey Keitel, because it looks so good just the way that it is :)

I've been looking for a shirt/jabot like this for a long time, and this one is just right! Material feels great, just the right amount of flair, and a great fit.

Great shirt that works well with slightly earlier period clothing. Lace cuffs are great peeking out from an 18th century style coat. Jabot took a little figuring out but once attachment system was understood, no problems.

Just what I needed
I was looking for an appropriate shirt to wear with my Heroes of 76 uniform. This one fits the bill with a fancy addition. The shirt fits nicely and the jabot is easy putting on and taking off. Looks real nice with my uniform. Thank you!

Completely Authentic
This shirt is very well stitched and constructed. The sleeves have ample extra fabric for both the width and length, as would be appropriate for this style, and the lace is a decent length as well so that it would extend beyond the cuffs of a frock coat style. Although not made of natural fibers, the rayon fabric is soft and not too heavy and is comfortable to wear. This shirt could also pass for a late 17th early 18th-century formal shirt, with a different jabot. Highly recommended.

Great shirt!
Bought this to pair with Historical Emporium's red and black Cavalier vest and it works perfectly. Love the shirt. Only minor critical comment is that I would have preferred a little less lace on the cuffs. However, that's just my personal opinion, and I would still give the shirt five stars. Well made and drapes well on the body. It does the job.

Nice shirt
I was happy with the product. I ordered the s/m size and I am 5'9" and 175 lbs and thought it fit well. Wish it was cotton though.

Great shirt
Collar button buttons up nicely . No more fights with putting on a tie . Will say collar needs starch to lay correctly . Very pleased with the purchase .

Great quality & Versitile
Noel recommended the Virgil Shirt to go with the double breasted vest to add versatility to the outfit. The shirt can be worn with the collar up or down for different looks. It fits perfectly. The quality is wonderful, the customer service was 10 out of 10. I would highly recommend any products from Historical Emporium.

Nice, and Surprisingly Comfortable
What can be said about the functional simplicity of a white button up shirt, especially for period-accurate costumes? The shirt is high quality, the fit is nice as long as you take the time to take your measurements and order the appropriate size, and what was perhaps the most surprising aspect of this shirt: it's extremely comfortable. The shirt is 100% cotton and feels very, VERY, nice on the skin and is very breathable. Pairs well with sleeve garters and bowties as well. Overall, great!

Perfect
This is a very well crafted shirt that certainly looks time appropriate. It also wrinkles as though it is. The tailoring is excellent and the size fits true to size.

Love this shirt
I have bought Virgil Shirts in the past because they do have a left breast pocket and the overall look is very 1880's. It is big enough to wear as a night shirt as well. I had to unload previous shirts and trousers after I lost 200 pound since my last order three years back.

Two perfect fits
I am always wary of ordering clothes by mail or from the internet, but I needed a Victorian/Edwardian club-collared short, so I took a chance when I stumbled across The Gentleman's Emporium. To say the least, I'm glad I did.The shirt (of very high quality) fits perfectly (which isn't all that common as I lift weights four day/week). So why the "two perfect fits" title? Given this initial experience with the company, I'd say The Gentleman's Emporium is going to be an equally perfect fit for me. (Expect more orders.)

Found item not easy to find
Looked on many other sites for rounded collars and had little luck. Gentlemen's Emporium had a great selection and the sizing recommendations were accurate. It's a great shirt.
