I am loving this line, I'm glad they brought him in to the Q. I also really enjoy watching him, he seems like a lot of fun and a good sense of humor.

Flipping the channel when they were showing the striped top. I said that it was costly for a pajama shirt 40.+ then read the description and read that it was a regular shirt. It also had the matching bottoms.

I loved Katrina paired with Jason for his TSV kick-off! They have great chemistry. They talk about fashion and the way things are made and influences in the fashion industry, etc. No tiring banter of "you can wear this to the grocery store or to walk your dog." It was a very pleasant, interesting, and great shopping hour. Got the TSV dress!

Loved Katrina with Jason. I agree. More intelligent fashion talk. Got 2 tsvs.

I saw a beautiful blouse by him and looked it up-95% polyester and imported. My two hate things.

@Judaline Realistically, do you expect to find 100% silk made in the USA? Maybe you need to widen your horizons.

He's a breath of fresh air, and paired with Katrina, is completely enjoyable. Great to hear about fashion, from someone that knows fashion, instead of the rapid babble and giggles.

No, I just need to find a designer who doesn't do polyester-they're out there.

judaline,judging, happen to agree with you.polyester is hot and sticky,especially in the summer.as far as being imported,I would shop American made clothing but can't seem to find any stores that do this.

the infrastructure to support that has gone,

there is plenty of used and vintage clothing out there and that business is huge and getting bigger,

He is cute, but the TSV is something any "Q Designer" past or present would do

will be into July before any buyers get them :-(

June 28 eta, after it allegedly ships, June/19. Which in the real world means, the first of July they'll be back ordered, it's basically a roll of the dice.

@Judaline May I suggest you check out - still made in the usa . com Lot's of information on USA made clothing. Not sure you'll find what you're looking for but it's worth a try.

I think he is held to restrictions that the Q wants him to keep items within a particular price point and that most items need to be machine washable . So, that limits fabrics used and designs.

I love Katrina and Jason. Looked forward to his TSV, but a little disappointed in this choice. Many of us no longer wear sleeveless...always cold in A/C places....and I think the style would be nice if taller.

@Judaline All cotton has become expensive. I've started accepting the price for linen or cotton/linen blends. Tencel (which may be a form of poly, not well versed in that) isn't too hot for me in summer. I think unless you want to pay high dollar, we've seen the end of affordable, USAmade silk items. I saw a silk pillowcase last week for upwards of $50 (!?!?!).

Agreed.

I was ready to order the tsv last night until I looked at the fabrication. I shopped at thrift stores in the past few years and stocked up on cotton dresses for summer. They don't have "hi lo" hems and that makes me happy. I love light weight cotton in the summer and I kept a lot of my cotton and silk items from Talbots etc. We all have choices in what we buy and that is good. I too enjoyed the initial presentation of Jason's dress and like that they actually talked about fashion.

I totally agree - have enjoyed him on the Szish List and glad they had Katrina kick off his TSV. They have the same type of NYC fashion cred but not at all snobby about it and want to make fashion accessible.

I posted on the other thread that I bought and received JJW's striped sweater in sage and love it. Barefoot Dreams quality fabric and feels very designer.

I purchased the TSV and also really loved the second black/white outfit that Bonnie wore on the launch show, so I'm getting that black tank.

If his line is that quality all-around, it's going to be a winner.

WOW such a nice change of pace to see Katrina host the Jason Wu fashion TSV ....she did an EXCELLENT job....and none of the "fantasy stories" were needed, pleasant conversation, good chemistry between host and vendor, and good details on the product and fashion info ................
