Why Is The Q Participating In The Red Carpet Event At The Oscars?

kittykatkay — Thu, 27 Feb 2014 01:46:06 GMT

I don't understand why the Q has to go to California and promote the Oscars every year. I've noticed that for the past 2-3 years they stopped the "Fashion Show Week" from New York. I think it just costs $$$$ and that is passed on to the customers which is an unnecessary expense. I don't get the connection.

Your thoughts please.

Well Kittykatkay, there is no connection. Read the thread in the Fashion Forum - most seem to think it is sort of ridiculous too.

Okay, just wondering! And they are having food displays too? I think Mary who works with David will be there?

Lisa was showing a preview of a leather dress she is selling for the G.I.L.I. line. Has anyone purchased this? I think it would be way too hot and I didn't like the way she said you had to take it off.

I like Lisa, alot - just not sure of that leather dress.

I don't really "get it" either. I would prefer they take the GOBS of money that they spend and give us a shipping break or something. Seems to me, it's more of a perk for the hosts and staff and they try to disguise it as a treat for the viewer.

Hi PurpleBunny. That's exactly right. I bet this Oscar Red Carpet will go by the wayside like the "NY Fashion" week did a few years ago.

Now I love the Italy shows....but here lately, you don't really get to see much except a castle in the background.

If anyone wants "Hollywood glamour", why wouldn't they be watching Hollywood instead.

I know I am Sunday night when the actual Oscars are on. This other stuff they are presenting you can check it out on line. They don't even have actresses/actors there at the Red Carpet Gala the Q is presenting. Just vendors.

it has nothing whatsoever to do with the oscars other than being in Los Angeles.

And it's an excuse to dress up.

Okay, Lisa's dress last year was horrendous. She couldn't possibly sit down in that thing!
