I do a historical impersonation of Minnesota's 1st First Lady, Sarah Sibley, which is given to students at various schools in my area. This year I decided to enhance my costume. First I ordered just the Victorian touring hat. I was so pleased with that purchase I then ordered the black high top shoes and a blouse. All purchases arrived within a few days. The individuals taking my order over the phone were extremely helpful. I am VERY satisfied with my new costume pieces!

I ordered and quickly received a victorian hat. The hat was beautiful to look at and beautifully made, as have been every item I've purchased from Historical Emporium. Unfortunately, the hat sort of "wore me" rather than my wearing the hat, i.e., it was too much hat for my smaller frame. I was sad because it was so beautiful.

The victorian skirt is better than expected. Heavy fabric, well made and sized right.

One of a kind shop with great products From victorian to steampunk outfits for men and women. Great quality and fun.
