I have not be impressed with any of Isaac's clothing in quite awhile, except for the 24/7 pants. Used to be very classic but no more. Sweaters used to be so nice and all cotton...no more. Must say I was quite happy with a Martha Stewart sweater that I purchased. And I still like some of the Linea line...

I have several of his Pima cotton tee shirts, very soft, wash and dry with little ironing, very nice. I also have a couple of lace tops, had to send a couple back, seems sizing was off, and I do like the 24/7 stretch pants but I don't like the jeans. My only issue is that he really seems to push buying more than one of the same item. Buy what you can afford.

He presents what QVC designs for him...not his call.

If Isaac makes one more lace top and dress, I will scream. If he makes one more cardigan with gaudy flowers all over it, I will scream again. What happened to simple, clean lines? Perhaps a cardigan with one or two flowers not covered all over the sweater like a carnival.

IMHO, his clothing line is not my style. He used to have some nice items but that was a long time ago. Every time I watch his clothing is floral designs, peplums, lace, bell sleeves, 24/7 pants and other materials he can add to an item. If I was a designer, I would be embarrassed to show this clothing line.

He needs to lose the tons of bolts of lace and seriously work on new designs. So tired of seeing all the lace, makes me not even like it anymore. In general very few of what he sells here is so ho-hum.

The PIMA COTTON tops, like some have mentioned, are of excellent quality and have many possible ways to wear them. Other than that, I'm not buying from his line either. I wish he would expand the color choices of the pima cotton tops.

I own the sweater that was presented last night on PMS. It has the double layer of ruffle at the cuff. The knit/hand of this sweater is fabulous. It is one of my favorite sweaters in my closet. I wanted to order the blue that was on reduced price last night but by the time I tuned in, my size was gone.

I also ordered a rounded hem short sleeve t-shirt over the summer and I wear it to death. I love it so much I recently ordered a 3/4 sleeve t-shirt in the same material. They are more than what you pay at Kohls for the in-house brand but the quality is fabulous.

ITA. There was a time when I would never miss an Isaac show. He used to have the most gorgeous cardigans, matching scarfs, beautiful handbags (and I don't mean lamb leather!), etc. Now all he seems to be selling is peplum and lace which I am tired of seeing all the time. His line used to be so elegant and classic now not so much. The only thing I have purchased from him recently is the new kitten heel slingback pump with the pom pom. Now that is one gorgeous shoe and the plaid jacket he had on recently with the hood you can take out (gorgeous, gorgeous coat, I really love it).

I personally feel that he is an amazing designer, but yes, lately his things are not at all pleasing to me. But I guess it comes in spurts . I have stayed away as too many things have been peplum....way to much of paplum.

I agree .. the pima cotton t shirts are good ....

I had one of Isaac’s cardigans & tees. The cotton tee was really soft but shrank after washing. The sleeves on the cardigan were rather wide, but I wore it several times before donating. I haven’t ordered anything else.

I don’t mind a bit of lace, but many of his designs have too much lace for me. He also does a lot of peplums which I don’t like. I watched his show Monday night and saw a blouse for $82. It was pretty, but too pricey for me.

My Isaac sweet spots are his 24/7 pants, his jackets, and his pima tees. I also have two of his skirts which are really different and always get compliments. While I don't see as many 'must haves' as I used to, I do love the things I have.

@Katcat1

Let's not forget peplum and lace, bell sleeves. Do not watch his shows.

Too much peplum, prints and lace......I have a lot of Isaac's things from the past, but he needs to go back to more of the basics...I don't want to always wear a huge print sweater.......I don't mind a little lace, it is actually very pretty......

Got an email from the Q for presale of the TSV on Monday. Yep, you guessed it ANOTHER peplum sweater! Ugh!!!!! Who is designing for him???? Obviously not anyone who knows what sells. On the positive side, saving me money.

I love his Pima Cotton tops, and his cotton/nylon cardigans. No prints please, I don't want to look like my grandmother's sofa. I haven't tried his pants yet, those I have to try on before I buy and I don't want to be stuck with return shipping.
