favorite fashion lines on QVC from years ago

SeaMaiden — Wed, 27 Apr 2022 13:53:30 GMT

I bought, have and still wear pieces from the Liz Claiborne line years ago carried by the Q. So classic they never go out of style. Nothing was TRENDY....just timeless pieces. I believe a lady named Linda was the host/ vendor at the time.my pieces are probably from 10 plus years ago that I still wear and they look like new.

I have a pair of pants from Jessica Holbrook that I just wore on a trip to New Orleans. Have to be at least 15 years old and still look good.

Also have a pair of Citiknit pants that I wear when traveling.

Miss both those lines of clothing.

@SeaMaiden , I think maybe Linda Davies did those presentations. Pretty lady with red hair. She now does Northen Nights.

Koos of Course - still have a skirt and jacket. Great quality. Some of his prints were out there, but others were classy.

There was a vendor from Italy who had sweaters with beautiful scenes on them in soft colors. I loved watching those shows.

From the early QVC days when they sold clothes that were "artistic" and "interesting"- not the ordinary clothes QVC sells today -- that you can find everywhere.

Just a few ....

Indigo Moon - still wearing my one remaining coat. Tan with black and gray applique.

Look East - still wearing a light beige (real) suede jacket. It has artwork in shades of black and gray on the back.

Quacker Factory - early days when it was "creative." I still wear an appliqued denim jacket from those days.

Sandy Starkman - He also did appliqued and beaded jackets/shirts. Still have one of his also.

Victor Costa (similar to what LDO sold - but his styles were nicer than LDO's).

Mary McFadden ... creative designs -clothes and accessories.

For me it was Marc Bouwer. I really liked his style and still wear many of the pieces I had purchased.

I really like Indigo Moon and Koos of Course. I still have jackets from both those lines. Well made and timeless.

Dialogue - I still own and wear a couple pairs of their black slacks. Wash well and wear like iron. When I worked full time, I had Dialogue slacks in every color they made.

I still have a washable suede Jessica Holbrook jacket. Still looks fabulous.

Old, old D&Co jean jackets and shirts now waay over 10 years old. They were excellent quality back then and reasonably priced. So sorry D&Co went downhill over the years.

I think I only bought one top from Marc Bower (sp?) and it didn't hold up well. I washed it as soon as I got it and it puckered along seams. I didn't think I could return it since tags were off and washed. I think maybe you can though?

Now ask about HSN fashion from years ago and I had a ball between Randolph Duke formal pieces and Suzanne Somers for casual wear. Still have those items!

George Simonton, Victor Costa

@IMW

Simonton was great in his early years at QVC - but he seemed to have lost his "design mojo" his last year or so.

I still have (and wear) one of his turtleneck tops and two jackets.

Back in the "good ole days" when I shopped a lot of Q's fashions, the ones I really liked were:

Denim and Co. (now I don't anymore)

Cedar Canyon

Jessica Holbrook

Sport Savvy

CitiKnits

Dialogue

Gabrielle T.

I also used to buy some of the Quacker Factory things, but IMO, they changed and no longer interested.

There used to be a line on HSN, I believe it was called Storybook Knits. Some of the sweaters were really cute.

I also like some of Louis Del'Olio (sp?)

I rarely shop anymore as I am no longer working and don't see the need to purchase the higher prices that they are now selling.

There are quite a few QVC lines from the past that I have positive fond memories of. Among them are George Simonton, Victor Costa, DVF Silk Assets, Precious Fibers, and Randolph Duke (particularly his 5 Easy Piece sets).

I loved the Motto line. Their designs were all unique. Kind of trendy but not over the top. Now it seems like all the lines on QVC look the same. Linea was classy and very well made.

I loved both Storybook Knits and Cardigan Bay hand knit sweaters.
