Susan Graver Fashion Prices

SeaMaiden — Thu, 07 Feb 2019 17:48:59 GMT

MY her prices have at least doubled or tripled over the past couple of years. Some tops/ tunics etc almost $90.00. I can not believe it. I know she has a following, but, her fashion is definitely not that great... more like Denim and Co..... Nothing special.

She must be socking away the extra bucks for her Grand Children's retirement or something.... just seems like her prices have gotten out of hand.

Sure, some people will not even care how much her things or anything cost.... the sky's the limit$$$$$, but, many people I am sure are getting priced out of her line.

she love her "I agree with your thughts on Gravee. He prices have at least doubled over the past years but the quality has not. Why does she love her "liquid knit"? It is not special; tired of the cheap fabric. Would not miss her if she left.

I have a lot of her clothes. But I too have noticed an increase in her prices. I have a limit on how much I am willing to pay for something, when I already have plenty of things to wear. And frankly, I am getting a bit tired of liquid knit.

I was going to order one of the tunics this morning until I saw the almost $70 price tag.

@DrKelli I saw her hooded sweatshirt with chiffon sleeves. I thought it was cute. But at $70, I thought she & QVC were out of their minds! I'm sorry, but Susan Graver clothes commanding those prices is ridiculous!

Couldn't agree more. I bought one item from her, a cardigan, which started pilling after one wear. In contrast, I was in London recently and went to Primark, which is a cheap store and I only go there when I need something that can be disposed of. I saw a nice cardi for 9 Pounds = ca. $ 12. After more then 10 wears, no pilling and the sleeves are still nice and tight around the wrists. I called my daughter who lives there and asked her to get me some other colors.

I haven't watched or purchased clothing from Q in about 2 years now, but as to the liquid knit, that fabric is very heavy. I owned a few pieces and have donated them. That being said, there are people who will post that they love it, wear practically nothing else, it lasts forever, worth it at any price, blah, blah, blah. As long as people continue to pay the stupidly ridiculous prices for the mediocre clothing products, Q will continue to sell them, happily. Yes, each person has their own price point at which they will balk. I reached mine a long time ago, price for what you get doesn't balance out, for me.

The Graver line is owned by QVC, and they set the prices.

I agree! Susan/QVC has priced herself out of my retired budget. No way can I justify paying that much for anything of hers.

Lipstickdiva — Thu, 07 Feb 2019 20:46:42 GMT

I'm pretty sure Susan doesn't set her prices. QVC does.

If I don't care for a line of clothing, I really don't pay any attention to the prices. It doesn't matter to me how cheap or expensive a line if I'm not going to buy it.

I had the same reaction when I saw that hoodie with the chiffon sleeves. $70 --geez, no way. Her pricing HAS gone up a lot.

This morning I did a quick look at the Dennis Basso show - his items were also priced high - more than I am going to spend on something I don't know if it will fit - it's just to expensive to try on and send back. I always have the best of intentions when I order but am usually disappointed...

I used to buy a lot of her liquid knit tops in the past but for the past year or so I noticed a change in the fabric. Her liquid knit is starting to look like real cheap polyester. Also, her designs are getting ridiculous. Huge patterns, constantly showing that long peplum in the back and those huge bell sleeves. Just saw her latest liquid knit pants with these flowers on the side that were absolutely horrible. I live in the NY area so there is a very eclectic mix of styles and tastes but I have never, ever seen any of these ugly patterns amd styles that she is showing lately. And yes, her prices are getting ridiculous for cheap polyester.

The last SG tunic/top I bought was about a year ago - v-neck top with laser cut-outs on the sleeves. It was on sale and seemed to be a much thinner material than the liquid knit I'd bought previously. There really isn't anything new from her line - it's all the same and over priced IMO. I'm sure there are still women who like her line and will order, but I can find a much more reasonable top elsewhere.

Re: Susan Graver Fashion Prices

LindaLatte — Fri, 08 Feb 2019 01:03:17 GMT

I agree about the prices. Over the years I have purchased many SG items, and enjoyed them. But, I have been retired for quite a few years and still wear the same size, so I don't need more clothes. While some of her things are cute, and I like liquid knit, I just cannot justify paying $70 for a top, a casual jacket, etc. And, now her pants start at $50 or so. Bob Mackie and Linea items are often the same or lower prices, plus I don't care for peplums, big flowers, bell and other "special" sleeves, etc. But, I guess others must be buying. Oh well, I really don't need new clothes, so this makes it easier not to buy.

I noticed the SAME THING, the easy pay distracted ME in the past!!! But I am beling more careful and looking for more AS IS items.

Plus when you factor in the SHIPPING, I am starting to look at other stores especially macys who has free shipping.

She can shake hands with Logo -- quote "if you don't know what it means, it is Lori Goldstein." LOL That is said in her commercial. Anyway, her tops are $80 and above. No way, I will shop at Nordstrom.

Seems prices have gone up across the board... most all products. And AS IS my special place to shop is not all that low anymore. I think at some point if they want to do well they are going to have to come up with a way to encourage customers to shop.

As for me I watch at times and the changes are easy to spot. If I see a style I like I simply take note, wait and go to As IS or Clearance.. but it takes patience.

In my case my clothing wardrop comes from Walmart, Costco, and some online catalogues. Works for me and I get compliments as long as I am careful to match color and design.
