I have never ordered Logo because I find the prices much higher than other favorite vendors. Why is that? From the descriptions and what they show on tv, the fabrics look thin and the styles seem to be fashioned for a younger group of shoppers.

She gets designer prices for her stuff because she is a prolific designer and woman don't seem to mind paying for it. I must say the shows are not sell outs like they used to be, but I don't think it's the price point I think this style is on it's way out.

She seems to use a better quality fabric.

It's thin due to the layering aspect.

I'm not expert I don't buy but I watch her shows

I love her colors, muted yet saturated.

I like how she mixes colors.

But I don't want a ruffle around my hips!

Have you shopped in a department store lately? I think her prices are in line but I never pay retail, which is one reason I don't order clothing from QVC

I don't think it's a matter of shopper's age ... rather a shopper's attitude. I'm not in the "younger group."

Her garments have a more complicated construction ... a lot more seams. Different combination of fabrics that need to be dyed in matching or coordinated colors, the number of colors in her prints. Try it yourself ... buy two patterns, one for a woven fabric button front shirt and one for a knit tunic with multiple fabrics with sections cut on the bias. You'll quickly understand why one would cost more than the other.

And, just because a fabric is thinner isn't an indication that it's an inexpensive fabric. And ... thinner fabrics are more difficult to sew.

How on Earth did thin and delicate suddenly become synonymous with cheap? If we're going by these rules then everything in Walmart is worth a fortune, plenty of thick garments in there. Creating a dense fabric is no more labor-intensive then a thin delicate fabric and sometimes the thin delicate construction can be more difficult!

The only time that I can think of that fabric density increases the value is in thread count in your cotton sheets

For me, Logo is either "love it" or "hate it". I love the fact her stuff is alot of color cordinated but all the layering is sometime a bit much!!! I do layer but not 3 shirts at a time & I prefer to match.

I know from my own experience, working w/lace, is $$$$. I've bought my own lace & sewn my own things.

I only buy LOGO when it's on LTS or on sale. I have a limit on what I will spend on a shirt etc.

And as far as "younger", I believe it's all about what you prefer.

Good feedback. But how do they look on a body that's not 5'9" and an XS?

I have a few Logo tops, but unfortunately, her prices are way up. I can't justtify spending over $70 for a top.

I stopped buying a lot of Logo because I just don't think the quality is there for the astronimical prices she charges. It has to be something I really love and not overpriced and that has not happened in a very long time. I think Susan Graver has the quality and really nice designs I don't like everything she does but I know when it is something that I love it is priced accordingly and is Quality unlike Logo. Just stop purchasing if everyone did Lori would have to up her game and lower those astronimical prices. What I don't like is they make a lot of these close overseas like many designers and they pay peanuts to have them made and comer here and overcharge us Americans. Especially on QVC the prices should be lower because they are selling in the thousands in one or two hours which they would never do in a department store so you think they would be more resonable in price but they aren't.

Logo used to put out better quality clothing at more reasonable prices!! Now I find the clothes to be very thin.They stretch & pill & cost too much for items that can only be worn a few times!! I get more wear & a better value out of Susan Graver & Louis Del'Olio clothes!! Yet,for some reason Logo has several hours of shows per week!!

QVC needs to remember what their initials stand for!! Quality Value Customer!!

Please go back to providing quality & value to your loyal customers!!

Catiele — Fri, 13 Jan 2017 03:18:54 GMT

I just don't like most of the items. Prices are too high.

Re: Logo

skuggles — Fri, 13 Jan 2017 03:39:00 GMT

Seems that her items use probably 1/3 more fabric than most other lines because of the tent like silhouette that flatters/hides everything from the mid chest down. That also requires more piecing too,such as all those extra layers on so many of the hemlines, and that may require more manpower/time to produce. Just a guess, but it brings her cost more in line with others when those factors are taken into account.

I have ordered many, many tops and leggings from the Logo collection.

Recently her shows don't seem to be selling out and I have stopped buying due to the price increase!!!!! I am sad, I do like the line very much and I am a 61 year old woman

Re: Logo

pamunkeyDeb — Fri, 03 Feb 2017 19:27:07 GMT

I wonder if Miss Goldstein reads any of these posts?I am a 61 year old who enjoys her cloths, BUT the price increase is just too much for me.

ALRATIBA — Fri, 03 Feb 2017 19:33:55 GMT

I don't think the fabrics are unusually thin ... not any thinner that stuff I buy elsewhere. Thinner doesn't necessarily mean "cheaper."

The construction is a bit more complicated than other vendors ... multiple fabrics both knit and woven in a garment that need to be specially dyed, bias cut seams and trim.

I wear LOGO and I'm 74. It's all in how you style the particular item.

Hello Ladies.... Well I have many of logo tops and jackets, cardigans ... What I love is her color palatte .but think lately she's run out of ideas ... Styles are not interesting lately..nothing original.

And I think she has run out of ideas. Her time has passed... I'm a senior..and know her time is over.

I have ordered many pieces of clothing from Lori over the years but I find that they are getting more expensive than what I can afford..makes me sad...

Re: Logo

Waterwoman — Tue, 21 Feb 2017 20:36:32 GMT

I have seen a couple of her designs that I might like to try, but it looks like all the arms/sleeves are skin tight. Even for a small chested woman, they are snug across the bust, but loosen up at the hips.

I doubt I could wear her designs because of the fit on upper body. From the graphics, I could wear a large if it weren't for the bust/tight sleeves.

Alas, not all of us are xs & 5'9"

nightnurse9381 — Tue, 21 Feb 2017 20:41:40 GMT

Way too expensive for me, and not my style. Enjoy watching the shows though -- I get ideas on how to use some of the shirts I already have at home and how to mix things I wouldnt usually think to mix!! I learn from the shows much of the time..................
