ISAAC’S 10TH ANNIVERSARY

Shanus — Fri, 17 Jan 2020 12:10:13 GMT

An open knit cotton cardigan TSV? I swear I've seen him do this before maybe in a different fabric, but same style. Certainly I expected something grand! New! Different color palette! Free shipping, at least. Buy more save more? I love and have so many of his Pima tees. I was really looking forward to something wowza.

Why would this be considered a 10th Anniversary TSV?

I really have no idea. What some people won't like, others will. I have many of his garments ,and never got one that I considered to be a dud

In fact ,most things I have bought here ,have been outstanding quality and value for money.

@Shanus I had this exact same thought last week when I started to see some of the promos for Isaac's 10th anniversary.

It seems that's the point. QVC is bringing back some of Isaac's designs that became popular for the brand (at least on QVC) back in the day. I also spotted those [dreaded or loved, depending on your point of view] saturated big floral cardigans that seemed to proliferate every QVC fashion show for a couple of years back then.

I have no interest in going down that memory lane. Hopefully, they will sprinkle in some new and interesting items today.

@cherry I still have his Bridgehampton bags from years ago. I always purchase from this line. Just surprised this is the anniversary TSV since it's kind of ordinary, IMO.

Some people like ordinary,and this will attract some first time shoppers, because it is something they can wear every day

@Caaareful Shopper I do miss his gorgeous scarves. I have quite a collection. Maybe one or two will be offered.

@Shanus. Have you seen his winter scarf, A372436? I have it in the natural -- it's stunning, even better looking in person. It's reversible, with a soft plaid on one side, and animal print on the other. It feels luxurious, not scratchy at all. I get compliments in it every time I wear it.

@Caaareful Shopper Yes, I was quite tempted in the brighter color choice, but love his lightweight scarves since most of my clothes are solid. They add a great touch of color.

When I first saw this cardigan I thought why would this be a TSV for an anniversary special, how plain. Then I thought about it. Last spring and summer I lived in a 100% cotton cardigan. It goes with everything, always looks good, and is comfortable. I wound up purchasing one.

@Janey2 Am I the only one who has the problem with an cardigan ending up hanging on either side of my "ta tas"? The CD cardigans don't because they're heavier and I sometimes size up. Trust me, my chest area is small, so don't get why this happens, but find I'm pulling the sides together all the time on the lighter weight open cotton type cardigans.

I was in Sams Club over the weekend and there were Isaac items being sold there. I'm sure they were probably made specifically for Sams. There were t-shirts and sweaters. The t-shirts were definitely not as beefy as the ones I have purchased from QVC and they weren't his pima cotton. I don't remember the price but they were cheap. The sweaters were cute and they were also cheaply priced.

If helpful to fellow Isaac Mizrahi Live! fans (I am one), I found the matching tumblers for his lunch totes online: https://www.qvc.com/Primula-x-Isaac-Mizrahi-Live%21-17-oz-Insulated-SS-Tumbler.product.K50137.html?sc=PRODFEED&TZ=EST

I have purchased some really nice Supima cotton polo shirts and t-shirts from Lands' End. The fabric seems a bit more substantial than that of Isaac's, as I have several of his Pima cotton T-shirts too. But the Lands' End ones are way less expensive if you catch a sale. Also, my tops from Lands' End did not shrink, like Isaac's did. Just sayin .....

@Shanus I thought the same thing. Nothing special there, although the colors are pretty but I have cardigans in this style so not inspired to buy another one.

To me....it's not a fashion piece, more like a lab coat - especially in the white or light blue and from the back view everyone looks UNFLATTERINGLY w i d e

Wasn’t it Sam’s where people found a lace dress similar to one being sold on QVC a while back? Thank you for differentiating between the Sam’s items and your experience with Q items. It’s a pet peeve of mine when people claim they’ve purchased “exactly the same thing” at a non-Q source for less when, no, it isn’t exactly the same thing—it’s similar (and often made more cheaply).

@cherry I so agree. I have many, many items from Isaac and ordered two more today. Everything is outstanding quality. Today I ordered the blue flowered wide leg pants that Jennifer was wearing and a v-neck tee shirt in a matchiing blue. I'm one of those that loves, loves flowing wide leg pants. I'm tall and on the slender side so it's a good look for me.

Does anyone know why Isaac does not do bags anymore? He used to have at least a new one a month. I cannot remember the last time I saw a handbag he had.

The cardigan is too plain and has no style for me. I do love the man though.
