She fancied the new-fangled “motoring” that her beau had taken up; it sure beat walking to the soda shop for a shared treat. Wearing her Ladies Edwardian Suit, she gave his shiny Oldsmobile Dash a run for its money.

This two-piece suit features a fully lined jacket with the telling ¾-length full sleeves of the era. The skirt, lightly tucked on the banded waistband, falls fairly straight to the ground, allowing a comfortable range of movement for practical daywear. Both the jacket and skirt are accented with contrasting trim for added period charm. Wear with an unhooped underskirt and a liberating, un-corseted Gibson Girl–style blouse (each sold separately).

Fashioned from 100% cotton exterior with a polyester acetate jacket lining. Imported. Dry clean only. Skirt measures approximately 40 inches in length. Offered in several colors and fabrics.

These folks go above and beyond in customer service!! I recommend them for their customer service. The quality of the costumes is also above what is expected. I send everyone to their website. I recommend them to costumers for stage actors and re-enactors as well. So far, everything I have ordered from them fits true to size. So far everything is well seen from good quality, natural, breathable, fabrics. Their shipping is quick and they have overnight shipping options. 5 stars. Will buy from again.

I thought it came with the blouse, it didn't. Aside from that my girlfriend loved it and is looking forward to wearing it the the other dresses at the up coming Rendezvous.

Beautiful but...

I bought this outfit to wear when I give tours at my local historical cemetery. It is beautifully made but I wish that they would make them in petite sizes. I have to alter the skirt because it is too long. This is the second outfit that I have purchased and both are way too long! How about offering these for women that are under 5'4?

A very well made reproduction.

My wife picked this out for a specific event. She loves it. The skirt has multiple buttons, so it adjusts to the wearer. It looks good on her, and we are excited to attend the next event in a good-looking kit.

Well made but...

Well made but wish the buttons were easier to button and that there was a petite size for shorter people. Home tour of historic properties in my neighborhood. Received lots of compliments.

Great outfit

I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the outfit. It’s well made with fine fabric. This is not a typical costume. I’d definitely purchase additional garments from Historical Emporium!

Risk Worth Taking!

I don't know how I missed the existence of this suit for so long. I will chock it up to not really wearing skirts and therefore paying more attention to the men's section. However, when I went looking for something to pair with my Gibson girl blouse, I did a serious double take, given that I'd bought a pattern for basically this exact outfit years ago, back when I had dilusions of learning to sew well. I'd even planned on using these exact colours!

Needless to say, I had to have it. Enter my wacky build. According to my chest measurement, I'm a S. According to my waist measurement, I'm a L. L was out of stock, so Mum and I looked at each other and, after some debate, decided that since I frequently wear M jeans, it would be worth it to order the M. Fingers crossed, I placed the order and...

...PERFECT FIT!

I about did a little dance when I tried it on, but there wasn't room in Mum's bathroom! And it's well made and the weight is lovely and the skirt twirls! This will undoubtedly become my 'most worn outfit with an actual skirt' in short order. I want to go to the park in it and just walk around looking amazing.

So glad I discovered you!

The skirt was a mile too long (I'm 5'2 1/2") and had to be shortened, but I'm looking forward to wearing it for my son's "Victorian" wedding reception next month. It is absolutely gorgeous! And my friend who shortened it for me says it's one of the best made items she's seen in a long time! Thanks.

Very nice dress wear

The Edwardian dress suit looks very nice and fitted well. The dress is a bit long I'm 5'8 and I wore several layers underneath and still had an inch dragging on ground,but as a lady I just lifted the skirt and was on my way. Had many compliments on the color and style at the late 1800's Christmas Event at our local historic village. The price was worth the outfit purchased. Thank you!!!!!!

Better than expected

I am a docent in an historical home every Christmas season. Usually decked out in hoops, petticoats and a fabulous dress from the 1860s, I chose to do something easier this year so I could dress myself, be more comfortable, and not knock the ornaments off the tree. Going Edwardian, some 30 years later, was the answer. When this suit arrived, I was delighted to see the quality of the material and sewing. This is not a costume; this is a handcrafted piece. All it needed was hemming. With a black belt, hat, and the proper blouse and jewelry, this is a stunning outfit.

This is a beautiful suit, well made. Sizing is always an issue with me so I have to be very careful in selecting a size. The chart was a big help. The skirt is long but can be adjusted to my height.

Ladies Edwardian Suit

Historical Emporium customer service and quality far exceed my expectation! Quality merchandise that always gets compliments whenever I or my husband wear one of our outfits from Historical Emporium. Always prompt delivery. My last ordered I placed on Thursday evening and received the following Monday and I didn’t pay for expedited delivery!!!! I returned 1 items due to sizing, wanting it replaced with a different size. I asked for the wrong size and their customer service called to verify I was ordering the right size. Great catch on their end! 5 Stars all the way across!

Amazing Quality!

I am BEYOND pleased with my outfit. I am a docent at a Victorian house museum and this outfit is period accurate and perfect for my living history tours. The quality is much better than I expected and I would go as far as to say that it would hold up to daily wear if necessary. Thank you so much!

Very high quality. Adjustable waist. Arrive on hanger. Great value for quality. Wish blouse was reasonably priced. It was $60 so just went with my own white blouse. Same for hat. Still great

Very pleased with the outfit. Material used was above what I expected. Well made. Fits great. I liked the waist adjustment area to take in or let out as my weight fluctuates. I recommended your company to a friend. Plan on future purchases as needed.

perfect costume

I had a last minute addition to my cast for a theatrical production, This was a larger woman who is difficult to fit. In desperation I turned to your website and found this PERFECT outfit. I purchased the blouse featured in the photo of this costume, along with the belt. I called customer service to verify it was available and shipping time. It came faster than I had hoped, and fit perfect! I did not have to make any fitting adjustments. Both the director and the actress loved it.
