Bard Ruffled Shirt - White

Would be an excellent choice under a blazer or vest at a party, brunch or in the office as well as someone’s pick to top off their costume of choice! Historical Emporium provides workmanship and style of such quality that it’s easy to recommend to friends & family.

Comfortable, easy to move in, and I didn't have any issues with sizing. It does take a bit of work to get the puffs in the sleeves to spread out.

So Good

Love the shirt, hate the sizing! Order at least a size larger!

I actually purchased this shirt as a piece for a Prince costume as it very closely resembled the shirt he wore in Purple Rain..... there are some minute differences but it was not originally designed for that purpose so that's ok. Under purple trench coat, it fits the look perfectly! Very happy with it.

Historical Emporium is our go-to resource whenever we need well made, period appropriate costumes for our local theater company. Unlike most online resources, if I submit a 'special instruction' note upon ordering, someone actually reads it and responds with an answer immediately! They have shipped immediately when the item is in stock, have offered great options when there are challenges but always delivered on whatever solution that is agreed. The product quality is superb - worth the price since they wash, wear and last well. We bought the Bard shirt for our tall, long armed Shakespearean actor (who happens to be my son!) and their sizing and descriptions are actually accurate - this in NOT the case with other suppliers! It came as quickly as I needed it - and as promised and was so fantastic, we actually bought another that likewise arrived quickly enough for use during the show run. Terrific! We are very satisfied customers and recommend them highly.

Wore for a special retirement, part of which tied into the Seinfeld puffy shirt episode. Was raved over. The size xl sleeves managed to cover my arms, but would have preferred a long or tall xl.

When this shirt arrived the first thing i noticed was how soft the fabric was . Once i wore out to a halloween event and felt how good it was on my body i thought how outstanding it really is i wore it with my velvet collar mourning coat black white spat boots and my nobleman's cane and stood out i can recommend how comfortable this shirt is you must not wear a vest/waist coat with ito though as it will hide the overall beauty and fine craftsmanship/tailoring of the shirt unless you wear a open vest Once more a wonderful item from this company with fast shipping

I my gosh, material was soft and comfortable, very nice,
If I had any decision in manufacturing of shirt
The only thing is that you have to keep adjusting
The elastic in the arms, cause they keep trying
To cut off circulation, not good, but all in all shirt was the bomb.

Good day

Quality and fit were awesome. Looks great on.

I'm giving my recent purchase of the Bard Shirt 5 stars. It's the best quality and most authentic version i've seen and have been looking for quite some time. I'm so happy with my purchase and price was more than fair and it was shipped immediately. I will absolutely be referring this site to others as well as will be shopping here again and often. Thank you.

I was very pleased with the shirt as a whole but the big draw back was the neck was not big enough. On an XL or 2 XLR shirt the neck size should be bigger. I'm going to have to take it to be adjusted by a tailor.

I ordered the wrong size send back no problem

It is terrific ! My husband cant wait to wear it at a steampunk wedding.
