The Bellamy shirt can be worn with the front ruffle for a pirate look or without for a more gentleman look. It fits perfectly. The quality is wonderful, the customer service was 10 out of 10. I would highly recommend any products from Historical Emporium.

I love the shirt

Exactly what I needed Fits as sized

The shirt is great. Looks and fits wonderfully.

I love this shirt. Great quality. Seinfeld would be proud

This blouse runs extremely big. I had previously ordered a bella blouse in large. It fit a little too snugly so I ordered the bellamy blouse in extra large. It was way too big, I looked like I was wearing a parachute. It is currently at my local seamstress's to see if she can figure out how to make it fit me.

Perfect Comfortable The 2x size is just right for me Thank you

Shirt arrived well made, well fit, and looking nice. Not too many loops and buttons to get it on and the fit is exactly what I wanted.

This shirt was worth the price, it was fantastic when used and really felt authentic while used all day for a Renaissance Faire. The shirt was very easy to move in and fit perfectly in accordance to the sizing guide provided.

as above.

I perform in a Fleetwood Mac Tribute Band. I am the drummer, so i am portraying Mic Fleetwood. He wears pirate shirts, so i ordered this one. It will work well, along with my black vest..... Now, if I could only grow about eight inches taller!!! The shirt is nice, seems like better quality than my old one. Washing it twice to try to get the unusual smell out of it

Beautiful shirt. Sewn well. Great lace. Fits well. Too long,I wish I could tuck it in my pants. Long like a nightshirt but certainly not one. Looks great w a captains coat,and your black gloves. Wore a top hat w it.

Love this shirt. Fits perfectly and is very handsome. The lace is wonderful.sleves the right length. Looks great paired with a black jacket. Those cuffs are great.

I brought the shirt for my spouse, we have been looking for this item for years and was happy to find it. The shirt size was spot on. The delivery was fast.

This Gorgeous Rayon shirt took dye beautifully. and the Jabot on this one allow for a more comfortable Neckline.

I am buying one or two items a month in order to purchase a complete Pirate costume. Buying "piece-meal" affords me to purchase those quality and expensive articles that makes the overall costume a quality one. And buying through Historical Emporium provides me the most expansive selection compared to numerous other costume/clothing web sites. Thank you for your fantastic selection of vintage clothing items.

Bought this shirt to replace one I wore out very pleased with the fit and gel very comfortable

This shirt is part of my 17th century reenactment events and fits with my costume. I ordered it a couple weeks ahead of the event date and received it in less than a week. Also the seams look durable.

Very nice fit, attention to detail and style. Comfortable to wear, looks stunning with a waistcoat.

I wanted this shirt, I am satisfied

I had one of these when I was a child like Davy Crockett!! great quality and great looks!! People always say how great it looks!! I wear it a LOT

Old time clothes are classy. People nowadays don't know how to dress. Thanks to Historical Emporium, I can achieve the look I desire. Either modern-day or historically.

The shirt was supposed to be and feel midiam. But it felt large. Didn't fit me right.

I ordered this and several other items for my daughter's upcoming wedding. The entire package arrived several days earlier than expected, and I was skeptical of the purchase, but once receiving all the items I realized the material quality was high the fit was perfect and the price was great. I could not have bought a suit for the same price. I am amazed at the outstanding customer service from historical Emporium. I even had to change my pants size day after I ordered and it was corrected and I received the proper fit.

I paid for fast delivery and it was on my door step the next day! Tried it on the actor yesterday and he was very happy to have a proper shirt to wear for the show!!!! Thank you for making life a lot easier for me!

I like Frontier Classics shirts except that the sleeves are usually too short for me. I’m over 6’ 2” with longer than average arms and legs. The fact that Historical Emporium stocks extra long, or ‘Tall’, versions of the shirts is perfect. I haven’t found them anywhere else (which is why I bought the shirt from them rather than from a supplier in the UK). I wish the long versions of Frontier Classics shirts were more widely available because this one I’ve bought is very good.

I enjoy this shirt. looks good with costumes, washes well and fits well.

I do period recreations and Steampunk cosplay. I needed a shirt for a new cosplay not to dissimilar to the office outfits worn on The Gilded Age on HBO Max. This shirt is very close to what I was looking for and the price was not bad. It matched the frock and waist coat I got for the cosplay very well. Understand in period, many white shirts were off white and not stark white. I love the texture and color difference. If you are looking for a more casual Late Victorian/Edwardian shirt, this will do the trick.

One of my favorite shirts. Fits perfectly, and looks great. Good quality, and great for those who want that true western 1800's look. It also looks great with my antique 1879 A.W. Co. Waltham with key pocket watch. Would recommend!

Online comments said the shirt fits on the large size so I went with the fit chart and bought a medium instead of the usual large and it fits perfect. Plenty of shoulder room and arm length is exact. Beautifully made. Shipping was really fast to Canada.

Very good quality, nice and breezy and handy for summer. And the collar style makes it versatile, so you're paying for two different shirts in one. It's quite baggy around the stomach but a waistcoat takes care of that. I ordered 2XL and it fits me perfectly, which is pretty good for something I bought online. With the collars starched up, I think it probably looks best with a deluxe western-style bowtie or a cravat.

For a 2xl I found the neck to be quite small, but still satisfactory.

This shirt fit well, was a basic style that covers many eras, the cost was right, the sleeves and cuffs were decent. I may get another as a spare. If you are tall, as I am, make sure you note that somewhere on the form. I did, and was rewarded with the longer fit at the waist...

This shirt has a small round collar, a pleated bib front and is made with some room in the shoulders, arms and back. It is beautiful, appropriate for formal and informal occasions and is very comfortable to wear. It is 100% cotton and is machine washable! No dry cleaning necessary! You can wear this shirt with a pair of jeans and look great! It is truly a classic! Thank you for your excellent products and fabulous quality!

Well made shirt perfect for all occasions!

I am very pleased with my shirt. It looks great and fits perfectly. My wife and I were very impressed, and a bit surprised, at how quickly it was shipped.

quick service, excellent quality, and the fit was perfect

Had to period-match a suit on short notice, and Historical Emporium came through big time! Shipping was very fast, and I was very satisfied with the quality of the garment. Thank you!

Recommend this shirt, very smart

Very good quality textile. Crafted as well as any modern-made shirt. It should last a long time. Because of the full-cut, I will need to have the sleeves shortened, but that was expected.

This is a well made shirt which fits my actor perfectly. He is the lead in Bunbury.

Surprised by excellent quality!

The shirts came right away and the overall quality is very good. My only issue is with the pockets on the right chest. Your picture does not show pockets and a pocket does not belong on an 18th Century shirt. I would try to remove the pockets, but I feel sure the needle holes would show. I am a demonstrating 18th Century blacksmith, and I really like my shirts to look correct as to period.

Great shirt. Quality material and well made. Plan on buying another. Numerous uses for this shirt.

Exactly what my husband was looking for. Thick cotton, generously cut (we ordered an XL and he most usually wears an XXL. Great quality, fast shipment.

a true bit of the past! I love this shirt. I have received many complements on it.

This was exactly what I wanted. Came on time When I needed to wear them. Great service Thanks

Now this is a great quality shirt with a lot of unique qualities! The fabric is very thick and heavy. A thick off white/beige linen look. Looks great tucked in or left out. If you leave the shirt out, it is a bit long but I'm sure a tailor at any dry cleaners can take the hem up a couple of inches if desired. Really great look if you like this style. Shirt looks like it can last a lifetime and goes will with jeans and boots. Good purchase, well worth the price!

For the purposes of daily wear, this is one of the best shirts to buy from the emporium. It works well with any work vest, and I have only received compliments whenever I've work it. The shirt is comfortable and easy to wash. This definitely belongs in a worker's wardrobe. I bought two!

Great product.

Bought one almost 20 years ago and been looking for it ever since. Love the design and material, comfortable fit. 2XL being available is a bonus hard to find big&Tall sometimes.

Product is just as advertised

Excellent quality! Your clothing is very well made and made of quality materials. I think the prices are great for the quality of the products as well.

This is the best quality, best looking period shirt I've seen. I love to dress up in costume at every chance I get and when I do, I want the cloths I wear to be spot on and this shirt is a 10! I love shopping here!

I ordered the Laborers Shirt because of its unique design and casual look, and was glad I did. The down-to-earth unbleached muslin nevertheless has good body to it and a soft homespun feel. The cut, with its open neck and added fullness in the lower sleeve would give an artisan or craftsman an ease of movement required to complete his tasks, but I like it just as well to sit around and relax in.

Wore this the day it arrived...it's comfortable, stylish, and fits well. I haven't washed it yet, obviously, but the page says line-dry, so I assume it will wash just fine...either way, a fine purchase!

An excellent shirt. Makes me wanna start working on the railroad. Well, almost.

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.

I bought this shirt for docent tours of a Presidential home. It is a great fit and is of great quality.

I bought this for Mark Twain Days. Lots of people dress in 1860 attire for the event. I look like I just arrived out west during the Comstock Era.

Your shirts go perfectly with the way I like to dress western style, even old old west. It's a perfect shirt. Fits nice. Looks good..

We were very happy with this shirt, it was historically accurate to the time period and looked good when it arrived

Needed a Victorian shirt for my husband, this fit great, felt nice, and had an accurate look. Also allowed for cufflinks. Very happy.

Transforms 21st century man into Regency Ball date. Highly recommend.

fits and looks great!

I absolutely love this shirt. The collar height is perfect. I habitually dress Victorian and Historical Emporium clothing is a staple of my wardrobe. This shirt is the perfect addition to my dress shirt rotation.

This is a very well-made shirt which looks great and authentic.

Well made, nice fit and comfortable. Works well with any neck wear from puff tie to cravat and with several historical periods. Will be ordering more.

Perfect fit for my husband. Ordered by measurement, yay! Material not as stiff as expected though, was very comfortable and looked great with his vest!

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.

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.

Neck and arm length, 3 of the sizes all have the sale neck???

Beautiful shirt, speedy dealivery, gift for son who loved it.

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 :)

Very happy with our purchase. Shirt is comfortable and washes up great. Great addition to our wardrobe.

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.

Fits well, great comments on it, exactly what I wanted

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!

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.

I love the shirt......!!!!!!! Fits great !!! Looks great as well !!!!!

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.

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.

The cut of this shirt is way too small! I normally wear an XL (17 inch neck) and according to the size chart that is what I should order. when it arrived, I couldn't even get the collar ends within an inch of each other. The shoulders and sleeves were small too. I returned it for an XXL. when it arrived again I was excited even though the shirt was now $10 more that I had paid due to the return, but my costume would be complete. Yet again the collar was small. This time the ends did touch each other so I had to have the collar buttons moved to the very ends ($15 at the dry cleaners for the job) and use collar button extenders ($20 on Amazon) to be able to wear the shirt. Per the sizing chart the collar should have been a 17/17.5 but the shop that did the button repair said that it was cut to a 16.5 inch collar. I ended up paying a total of $105. 00 for a shirt that was advertised as $69. Not a good monetary choice on my part

Not that it's a bad thing, but the cotton of this shirt is lighter than some of HE's other shirts, similar to the club collar shirt. It's still good quality and it's nice to have a lighter weight for hotter days or more layers. Just a good thing to know. The steel top button is cool.

Great shirt but more important to me was your customer service. I buy with you because there is not a problem with a return and there is a prompt refund or exchange. You always answer quickly to my questions. Your shipping is very fast! I just wish you had clothes from the 1600's. I am an actor and am looking for costumes from that era.

I have been looking to upgrade some of my Steampunk gear. I've done it piece-by-piece and one of the last ones were black shirts. Now that I have these, I think what I have for this character is pretty good. I still need to accessorize more, but this means my basic gear and garments are set.

Want to feel like a fancy Victorian man of status. Then this is the shirt for you, especially when accompanied by a puff tie or ribbon tie you can feel confident you'll look amazing!

I'm sensitive to fabric textures, and this shirt (stolen from husband and altered) is my go-to. It's a lovely high quality, has stood up to 6 years of washes so far with very little fading and no pilling at all.

I have three of these in White and decided to get one in Black! No Disappointment! Add a Puff Tie or Ascot (I have several) in a bright color. Never disappointed with the Emporium Stores!

Perfect.

For Steampunk Carnival Ball. Picked and chose among the offerings.

Totally satisfied. This was the fourth item I purchased, that should speak for itself.

I love this shirt! Pricey but I'm glad that I purchased it. The quality is excellent. I received it promptly. I have bought from Historical Emporium in the past and will do so again. Check out their Homberg Hats.

This shirt is great, versatile and comfortable. There is but one very minor issue with this shirt, from my standpoint anyway, cannot wear cufflinks with this shirt. It fits well and looks good in all respects. I would easily recommend this shirt to others.

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.

I have been impressed with the 2 shirts that I have purchased , I use them as everyday wear and they are now part of my corporate wardrobe... I'll be back

The shirt arrived within three days of ordering! The fit was fantastic and comfortable. I have been looking for a site that provides quality and I've found it. I would recommend Historical Emporium to any and all, and will be purchasing goods from them in the near future.

I just returned from Tombstones "Helldorado Days" where I wanted to get my photo taken with the Earp brothers and Doc Holliday. I had wonderful black Frontier Classics trousers, red apache scarf, grey tweed vest and white banded collar shirt. I ended up hating the shirt. It made me feel like I was choking. I bought the Sinclair Edwardian shirts in all the colors available and LOVE them. With the proper ties I can leave the collar unbuttoned, breathe and still look good.

Very good product and professional services.

The shirt is excellent and fits so well. I like the quality and it feels good to wear. Very nice shirt, keep up the quality!

The shirt has a generous cut and is tailored beautifully. This shop is superior in offerings and in customer service. Well Done

I most recently had the opportunity to attend a “Black Tie Chic” event. I did not want to purchase an entire tuxedo- what do to? I turned to the myriad of shirts at Historical Emporium to put together a “look”. To include the Tuxedo-look of the Sinclair Edwardian Club Collar Shirt and Gold Vest. Well let me tell you I looked sensational- some folks came up to me and said I looked dapper. I was worried about size but the shirt xxl fit fine- great cotton feel. I did have a bit of a problem with the vest - which I will comment later. Bottom line - I will definitely be a repeat customer. Thank you.

Ordered the Sinclair Edwardian Club Collar Shirt - Black in 2x as per sizing instructions, it was a perfect fit, looks awesome. Recently wore it with the Emerald Isle Vest and Emerald Isle Puff Tie, was told it looked "Very dapper"

Beautiful shirt with detail. Fits true to size.

Great fit. It works with my different period outfits.

Great shirt perfect fit!!

It fit me great. I have a pretty thick neck (17.5" ish) and found no discomfort.

Excellent style for the era but quality of fabric is thin and could of been better. Happy with it otherwise

The shirt was as described. It was of much higher quality than I expected. There is so much fraud on the Internet. This was a great find.

like very much this shirt very pleasant to wear and the collarpositionable alternately in the victorian or edwardian style suits me very well.

The Sinclair Edwardian shirt is perfect! Beautifully made and very comfortable and fits.

I wanted to get a comfy yet slightly stylish shirt for a Steampunk convention and this one is perfect. I live in a hot climate and tend to get overheated easily. This shirt did a good job of keeping me comfortable. It's loose but not so billowy that it looks like a pirate shirt. The collar is just right for a casual look or a slightly dressier look when paired with a vest and tie - which is what I wanted. It's held-up really well in the washing machine. No loss of shape. Great shirt!

This shirt makes me look more like a Victorian gentleman, especially when I have the collar stand up. Its a good addition to my wardrobe and I always feel like a Victorian gentleman when I put it on.

Nice sturdy shirt, that is comfortable to wear. Size does run big but I do like my shirts to be roomy.

Pros- Well made garment. Made from quality fabric. Fast Delivery Cons- Wish it came in a TALL. The Natural color is yellow not ivory or off white. Hope you can add the shirt in an ivory or off white color.

The shirt fit well and it's made of very strong sturdy material

I love this shirt. The material and cut make it good for dressy occasions, but it isn't overly formal and great for everyday wear, especially with a four-in-hand or bow tie. Like many of your products, it's a staple of my daily wardrobe. Now my eye is on either the white or blue one for summer.

The shirt was high quality, sized correctly and beautifully finished. Overall, I was very pleased with the item!
