LOGO....

anniemae — Mon, 15 May 2017 19:54:17 GMT

I just was wondering what other women think. I've never bought anything from LOGO as of yet. I think a lot of her stuff is really cute, but it just seems a little too expensive sometimes. I'm very short/small - 5'2" - so I don't know how her clothes would look on me.

Does LOGO look good on very small and petite women? Also, do you layer clothes like Lori shows? It looks nice on the models, but in real life would anyone really layer and layer their clothes like this? Just wondering. Thanks!!

uh oh @anniemae

You have asked a very loaded question! LOL Be prepared!

There are those on these boards who lose their marbles whenever Logo or Lori are mentioned.

Here is my honest opinion....

I also am short. Long legs, NO torso. I have several pieces and I love them. I think esp. the longer pieces help stretch me out! LOL

They wash wonderfully and last years.

I never, ever wear more than one top or tank. For me, I would never style myself the way they style the models. But to each their own! I think the versatility is what I like about the line. You can do so much and do very little.

I do layer, however, for me...layering is ONE tank and ONE cardigan (I am always, always cold and don't like my arms anyways.)

They're too long on petites & gives off a homeless look on.

I have about 24 or 25 LOGO pieces.

I do layer my LOGO - but according to my own personal style ... not Lori's. I rarely layer LOGO on LOGO ... most of the time, I'm layering it with pieces from elsewhere. LOGO pieces tehd to "stick" to each other. I layer with things that are "slippery." I don't want anything to cling anywhere.

I do like chiffon or crochet lace vests and over the LOGO tunics. AND - alway a scarf!

Unfortunately I have to disagree with the above poster who says that they wash well and last for years, that hasn't been my personal experience.

I recently bought this one in 2 colors, have worn both a couple of times for short periods, haven't even washed them yet and they both are so pilled and the one I wore today, now has 2 holes in the fabric, right in the center of the top, from the zipper on my jeans is my best guest.

Don't try to crucify me Pearley, it's MY personal experience and I wasted $130 on these 2 tops. Never again!

LOL LOL LOL thanks for the good laugh, that being said, I think Jessie, Lori's assistant is 5ft2 and she looks adorable in the LOGO

@anniemae

I am also 5'2 but all legs!

I've only purchased 2 twin sets (because they're cheaper that way) when the length appears a little less overwhelming to me...excessive length with an even hemline cuts my legs off and they're all I have for the illusion of height!

I did have one of her pieces get shredded in the laundry. I don't know if it was the washer or dryer...

I have a few LOGO pieces. All except one I bought at the outlet because the pricing is too high for the material. But I'm 5'8 and plus size and I like that her tops, vests, cardis, etc. are longer length. If you're petite I would start with one of her shorter length tops and see how you feel.

Do not listen to the haters. Don't even listen to Lori sometimes. I do not pile on layer after layer and some of her color combinations are not attractive. She had the models wear a top over the tsv dress that clashed hideously. Do what works for you. But the irrational hate for this line is ridiculous. It's one thing to not like the clothes, but when others mock and shame women, calling them bag ladies...it's veers on personal attacks. Right now I've got Bob Mackie on. His clothes don't appeal to me at all but I'm not going to attack those that do wear it.

I've seen no "irrational hate, nor any name calling, personal attacks or mocking" of Lori on this thread.

I have never worn Logo's clothes. I just want you to think about your size and your proportions. Petite clothing is made for petites and they enchance your figure. Missy and Plus size clothing are made for their figures. I know they try to convince you everything works for everybody. IMHO this is so far from the truth. If you looked at Sharon this morning, she is 5'2", she wore heels. If it were not for the heels the dress would have hung to the floor. I would advise you against this purchase. Of course, it is your money and do what you want.

I made the mistake of buying a winter TSV, it was so long it looked like a dress and fit like a sack. Think that's part of the HOBO jokes.

Re: LOGO....

Kachina624 — Mon, 15 May 2017 23:18:31 GMT

People don't wear that type of clothing where I live. For one thing you'd roast in all those layers, long sleeves and jackets, not to mention the voluminous folds of that dress. Just too hot here for all that fabric and fou fou.

Re: LOGO....

RollTide2008 — Mon, 15 May 2017 23:25:43 GMT

I'm tall and fat and love LOGO. Some things I layer, some I do not. I've never had a problem with anything not washing and wearing well.

makena — Mon, 15 May 2017 23:37:43 GMT

But did it have the mother-of-pearl buttons? LOL. I have to laugh when they say and seriously, look at these buttons, MOP!!!! It's a button.

Re: LOGO....

EZ shopper — Mon, 15 May 2017 23:48:20 GMT

I am one of those that do not get, or like, Logo fashion. That being said, I LOVE the TSV dress. It is the cutest thing ever. I wish it came in petite. I would definitely order it. I can't believe I just said that

@makena Yes it is a button. And mother of pearl is a heck of a lot nicer for a button than plastic is. I like those details.

It's been done on other threads. Making fun of women who like the line. Saying they look horrible, like homeless bag ladies, clowns. It's very catty and immature.

I just finished sewing on 34 MOP buttons to embellish a crochet lace vest!
