Prints- YUCK!

PhillyGirl23 — Sat, 16 Jul 2022 18:16:30 GMT

The TSV dress is cute, but I have never seen such hideous prints!! I wouldn't be caught dead in any of them and I already have solid black dresses!

Renee, who are you designing for??? I don't know a single person who would wear one of these prints.

I approach these boards with the uttmost respect for other's opinions, and enjoy that we are welcome to state our various points of view.

As I commented on another thread regarding this TSV, the joy of fashion is that we have choices, and in my opinion it would be a boring world if we all dressed the same way.

I don't find these large prints hideous at all, I had one of Renee's tropical print dresses in my cart last night in record time. I rarely purchase solid colored dresses - they are boring to me. To each their own!!

As to 'who is Renee designing for', well the dresses are selling well, in the animal print and tropicals as well as the solid black, so even if you don't personally know anyone who would wear them, someone likes them, I know I do!

I agree, I would never wear any of these prints either -- none of them, but it looks like many women like these prints. It's been selling out. Different strokes for different folks I guess.

I couldn't have said it better!

D & Co had some 'camp shirts' almost as bad last week. For me = not for free

If women all dressed alike, they would look like a crowd of women from The Handmaid's Tale.

Renee is designing for US! There are all kinds of choices in her line, for all kinds of people, like we are!

I like the style of the dress but the prints are overwhelming and I don't think they look flattering on anyone modeling them. Therefore, I saved some money.

I agree. I hate large prints on clothing.

I do not like any of those prints at all. Don't want to put down others tastes in fashion, but this is an opinion forum, and in my opinion, I would not wear any of these prints.

Wow, what a rude post. You could have just said the prints don't appeal to you rather than insult the women who like the prints and are ordering one of the dresses.

The prints are kind of loud but I would never say they were hideous or ugly. They are not my style or not to my liking. I am not buying as I feel the dress is too long and voluminous, even in the petite for 5 foot 3 inch me.

So what prints to would you detractors like to see? Ditzy prints? Polka dots? Small paisley? Solid colors? Give constructive ideas, please.

It was an insulting post and speaks volumes for the poster who wrote it.

@PhillyGirl23

I had to go look at what you were commenting on .... all prints with just one solid color ... black?

I don't think there are enough color options besides the large prints. Since autumn clothing is now showing here and there, Rene should have had a few vibrant colors ... blue, cranberry, emerald green.

If someone never wears prints, well, I don't think this has been well thought out. JMO, of course.

I am not impressed with this dress. IMHO, I don't like maxi dresses for petite women. I think the midi is a better choice. If you look at the petite model, it just makes her look shorter unless you wear high heels. Showing part of your leg is more flattering for petites.

@elated

I'm 5'2" and the midi length is just horrible on me. I have nice legs, but that length does them no favors and makes me look shorter than I am. A full on maxi looks much better on me, personally.

i really like prints in general. particularly nice bright colors. i considered this in the leopard, i thought that all the other fabrics looked a little on the "muddy" side for me. i like bright happy colors.

too bad, the style looked pretty promising.

I had to go look. 🤣

Ok. Not my style at all but definitely not the worst I’ve ever seen. I think you could have just said “Not my style” and left it at that.

Really? I saw some very large and brightly printed dresses at Neiman Marcus and Saks. A lot of them looked a lot like the TSV.

Maybe you need to broaden your horizons @PhillyGirl23 . Large prints are fashionable for the summer of 2022.

I am not a print person but I would wear every single one of these!

I am ordering the black only because I already have several of Renee's prints, which are comfortable and pretty.

With so many offerings, at least there is hopefully something for everyone!
