No occasion. Had 1 50 years ago wanted another. Love it. My 2nd hat from you. Also have 1800s slouch .

The occasion hasn't arrived as these trousers are at my tailor's shop being altered. These will really compliment my Dickens character holiday festivities.

Too soon to tell! They're still at my tailor's shop. Everything fit well except for the inseam. I'll certainly make a posting and comment upon donning the new attire.

Just one part of my old west outfit

This shirt is high quality and fits perfectly.

We are going to participate in a reenactment in November and I needed Navy trousers in case we have to participate as federal troops. We have purchased these in the past in another color and love everything about them.

I have a Chuckwagon and dress time period for Cookoffs, weddings, or private parties, I was looking for something different than most other competitors wear, I believe these will do the trick...

nothing wrong with is why i gave them 5 stars. However, they weren't as bright white as i wanted them to be. The all cost involved in returning them was to great, so i decided to keep them. that said i have been more than happy with other purchases, from this company.

I'm dressing as my Great, great grandmother in a civil war reenactment in October. She traveled on 50 miles horseback with a baby to warn the Union officers of a confederate plot. The resulting battle was a victory and turning point for the Union in Kentucky. The outfit I have purchased is no doubt, higher quality and more stylish than what my great, great grandmother actually wore. She lived on a farm, no slaves, family help only. I did purchase a belt and pistol which I may have to return as it is pretty heavy. I'm will decide between the carbine rifle and sling as soon as the sling comes in the mail. I'm all set for Oct 25-26 love my outfit.

Decided to go to an "early Halloween" party in steampunk drag and needed a proper cape to set off he stuff I had. I paid for expediated delivery and had the item the very next day, and very nice it is too. Not too heavy and still quite warm. I am 5' 8", 255 lbs with a 20" neck. The cape fitted well but the neck was tight when not wearing a collared shirt. I thought I might wear it open anyway, but wanted it not to slip off my shoulders, so I made a cape fastener by sewing two 22 mm buttons back-to-back with a small gap between them, and hot gluing decorative cogs to one button. By slipping this contraption into the open buttonhole opposite the top button and linking it to the cape's top button with a chain loop the cape was held securely, open slightly to display my ascot, with no danger of falling from my shoulders. Based on this purchase I will be using Historical Emporium for future costuming needs with no reservations.

I just like the way it looks. And fits.

Well again I'm extremely well pleased with this product I've gotten a lot of compliments I've complemented the product it's very high quality very nice looking and stays where I put it and that's important and I will purchase more down the line. I highly recommend these goddess

I am extremely pleased with this product it's extremely well made very high quality and I just like the way it looks and I've already received compliments and that's important to me because when I purchase something and people say they don't like it then I'm mad but all they've been saying is they like it

Perfect for black dress. Wish the handle us more easy to carry (J shape or with a strap)

Perfect match to the jacket and pants of this era. Thank you for completing this outfit. Will be worn much now and in the future.

Historical Emporium should be the "go to" for anyone looking for period costumes and props. The customer service was spot on and the quality is top notch. Make this your first stop!!

Bought this for my husband to wear to a wedding. The fit and quality were great.

Wonderful item for a tour I was on.
