Quacker Factory?

wakefield64 — Sun, 15 Nov 2020 19:43:58 GMT

This line seems to be quite absent especially during this holiday time. I seem to remember many shows around Halloween and Thanksgiving time. I did not buy much but enjoyed watching Angel. Maybe not cool 😎 enough for the “Q”.

The loss of airtime on Q2 seems to really have cut down on Quacker exposure. Also the popularity of the line appears to be waning. Embroidery and rhinestones seem to be out.

Although Angel is a lovely presenter, the line has never been the same. Once the original vendor is gone, the spark is just gone. And times and fashions change too.

I'm not sure embroidered items have gone out of fashion but sequins and bling have.

Since I was never a big fan of rhinestones or sequins on everyday jeans, tshirts etc but I looked forward to holiday offerings. Sparkly 4th of July and Christmas tree shirts, Thanksgiving turkey, Spooky Witches etc. Limited wear time, some just 1 day but fun. I agree the line seemed to wane and get stale.

That ought to be an exercise in humility for Katrina.

I still have a few of the original Quacker sweaters and tops from when Jeanne was alive. The quality was unbelievable. The embellishemnts were all hand done and beautifully placed. They used real sew-on sequins and rhinestones. The embroidered designs were beautifully thought out and mostly hand done. And don't forget the button covers on the shirts and sweaters. The line was cheapened considerably after Jeanne died and frankly, I'm surprised it has lasted as long as it did. I loved her clothes, and Angel is a lovely presenter, but I haven't seen anything in a long time that piqued my interest enough to buy it. The clothes are no different than what you can find in other retail or online places.

I've seen Katrina present Quacker Factory before and she did a really good job. She made it look stylish with her personal touch.

Angel is the best (of all the) product reps,

I don't wear QF but I like watching her

Q is pushing pajamas and stuff like that right now

hopefully she will be back

Yea, Angel is cool, but not so much the clothing line.

MandyG06 — Mon, 16 Nov 2020 14:34:47 GMT

@jackthebear Angel is the best On her personal FB page, she posts pics of herself wearing items that aren't QF sometimes and she has great style! I'd love to see her branch out from QF because she is great.

The bling doesn't appeal to me. However, I do have QF capris with a little bit of bling on the bottom. I purchased them anyway even with the bling because I really needed capris for a Florida trip. I've had them for several years now and they look just like the day I got them. They are incredibly comfortable. I like them to much, I was hoping to get a pair of crop pants this summer (without bling) but sadly the sold out and never came back in stock. I used to buy Denim & Co crop pants but they droop and they just don't fit me as well. I hope QVC doesn't "let them go." Perhaps if they cut back on the bling they'll be more appealing to customers? I know I certainly will buy those crop pants if they come back into stock.

I think you're right. I've always liked the quality of the items vs. Denim & Co. (which is now junk). The "quiet" Quacker items used to catch my eye.

I knew a woman a few years back who was the sweetest lady on the face of the earth who wore a lot of Quacker. She was a hoot and it taught me to stop being so judgmental about what is acceptable in fashion. Some of the nicest people wear things that I used to look down my nose at. Wake up call for sure......

I still have a couple of cardigans from QF that no longer fit me, but I keep them because they are so cute. No bling, just cute embroidery and scenes..... and no silly sayings, etc. One was for Thanksgiving and one for Christmas. The quality was top notch, too. It was never the same after Jeanne died. Seems like all they have now are t shirts and dream jeans.
