Isaac's clothes

bargainsgirl — Mon, 13 Aug 2018 13:34:09 GMT

I used to really like Isaac's designs and styles of clothing. Now not so much. I really like the 24/7 pants and shorts and his supima t-shirts. But lately all we see is lace and bell sleeves! His "look" is just not there anymore. I used to consider him traditional/preppie but now he is getting more and more trendy. Linea is more my style....

Seems like I go through spells of loving Isaac's clothing and then not liking most of them at all. I am now going through a "not liking" most of what he brings to QVC. I'm sure things will turn around in his designs sometime in the future and I will like more of his items again. I do love all the things I have gotten from him in the past.

I like IM's clothing style although haven't bought much because of the price. Linea is too "traditional" for lack of a better word for me and I'm 68 and am not a "trendy" person.

This TSV is disappointing because I don't do turtlenecks and this is at least the third incarcation of this sweater. It's really time to move on.

That being said, I own a number of Isaac sweaters and I love them. The hand is fantastic. They are soft but not hot, big and bulky.

I've never tried any of Isaac's bottoms.

The older I'm getting the more I"m buying LESS and LESS sweaters, I'm hotter now. So this TSV was a no go for me. I have a lot of Issac sweaters in floral and various prints but when I saw that he was the TSV, I was like WHAT AGAIN!!!

I know it is a business so the BEST sellers will be in constant rotation but I really miss the old days of more variety on the Q.

I have one piece from him and it was the hoodie from late last year--a TSV--that I love. However, I cannot stand to listen to him and hardly ever watch because of that; and most his stuff is not what my lifestyle is now so always pass--he sure has had alot of TSV's tho.

This TSV looks like 5 fashion trends thrown together and it looks awful.

Not a fan of IM. Just not my style. He does "cute" and I don't.

This Turtle neck TSV is just awful.... I am really surprised that it is a TSV at all... I think Isaac has run out of ideas or something.???

@SeaMaiden Well at least there's no peplum. I think the Q needs some new "designers". Too many stale, same old, same old looks.

Personally, I just say no to IM's items. I tried one several years ago and have not cared to try any more. And this particular TSV, I just took a look due to reading this thread, about 3-4 things I do not care for, easy pass. For those who like it, enjoy it.

@bargainsgirl You hit the nail on the head. The TSV is a DUD! If he designs anymore tops and dresses in lace, I will Scream! Give us designs we can wear.

I have a couple IM products which i do like that i got a couple years back and i felt the quality was good....and i am going through the same feelings with SG myself...i bought tons of her stuff a couple years back...but last and this past year i bought a few multiples of the same item if i found one i liked, etc........all she seems to offer these days is trendy...bell sleeves, HUGE prints, zippers in the oddest places, cargo pants, those weird open neck collar type tops...and NOTHING is in solids...i have to go back to older items to find most solid clothing pieces.......i think this is the SAME problem with the "few" designers QVC has on hand, (SG, LOGO, IM, H Halston, Belle, Lisa Rinna, D &C.....even Louis who i love is now putting out more trend items...like his loungewear, asymetrical, etc...)...i guess the old saying is "if you can't beat them ...join them"..........the problem is it is ALL THE SAME STUFF

AND STYLES..............and i won't even go into the

"empowerment clothing"..ugh. I am so thankful i bought a while back............i would have a hard time finding items to purchase these days...like i said i have to go

to old item numbers if i want to find a certain style .......

Also the prices going up quite a bit lately......makes you think twice...

back to older item numbers

Sometimes I wonder if he even designs his own stuff...like maybe there's a design team doing the lifting.

@kelsey17 I also have several IM pieces that are 4-5 years old. Beautiful cardigans that actually have buttons and didn't stop at my waist or have a peplum. Also made in mostly cotton. I have his 24/7 jeans and slacks but the waists are much larger than I'd like but because everything nowadays has a slim fit, which I am not, I have to size up, but I do like the fabric. I'm not loving anything I've seen from him lately. All the "designers" on the Q are bringing the same stuff with just a different name.

I guess Im in the minority here. I like his TSV and I have a lot of his prima cotton tops, they are better quality and wash and wear well. Im not a fan of lace or bell sleeves so I dont buy that and not his pants, but the pieces I do have I love.

@hsawaknow I also have many IM tees. They’ve held up for years. I don’t get the weird sleeves on anything, but especially on a top/sweater that you may have to fit that sleeve smoothly into a coat sleeve...no way!

@SilleeMee Wasn’t his company bought out? If so, they probably have their own designers & IM now has minimal input. That would explain the shift in the style to ruffles, embellishments, lace, peplums, etc. IM never would have approved/designed these.

@Snicks1 I just wanted to ask, is your dog named Snickers and you call her Snicks? If so, that's the cutest thing I ever heard. She actually has the colors of a Snickers bar so.....................

@Judaline, lol, yes. that is why I named her Snickers, the coloration on her face. She is also as sweet as candy. You have a great eye. Thanks for asking.
