Anyone else disappointed with fall fashion days?

RetRN — Sun, 06 Aug 2023 15:13:58 GMT

I didn't enjoy it as much as years past. In fact, I purchased nothing.

Just the fact that I lost weight a year ago and I'm wearing 1-2 sizes smaller than in fall/winter seasons past makes me happy to buy new.

I bought several items this weekend including the TSV jacket in two colors, some tops, jeans & knit pants.

Since I don't need any fall clothes, It doesn't matter to me what they present.

I was also disappointed in the offerings. Just more of the same in darker colors. Too many Isaac tee shirts and endless Barefoot Dreams. Do they ever run out of either? It's this ponderous, mind-numbing repetition that runs people away.

I didn't even see anything that tempted me.

I've enjoyed the offerings. I purchased Kim's TSV yesterday. There were so many more items I wanted to purchase, but I have so many clothes already. I'm still considering purchasing more before the weekend is over.

Agreed! They used to offer more deals. I understand the prices of everyhing has gone up but the value did not look there for various items. I did purchase 2 of the TSV jackets I have her spring version and love it

I didn't get either TSV because I have plenty of jean jackets and loafers. However, I did get some new fall things... I am back in the office a few days a week, after working from home full time prior to and during the pandemic.

So I need clothes. Not only did I lose weight during the pandemic (YAY ME!) my style changed. I can't do tights and heels anymore. How did I pull those suckers off for all those years. LOL

Haven't even watched. I check "recently aired" and see nothing that tempts me. And I get too many incentives from other retailers. Just ordered a short sleeve 100% cotton t-shirt from Coldwater Creek (free shipping) for under $20. Also incentives from HSN, Macy's, Blairs, etc., etc. Have no need of QVC.

No leather? Like I need any more, but if s navy/midnight blue skirt suit ever shows up, I'm in.

QVC used to sell luxury goods but in recent years it is slim pickings. Wool, cashmere and leather there are sadly few in inventory @StylishLady2 .

I bought a pair of vionic sneaks that are on advance order, but nothing else appealed to me. I'm still buying summer things, I got a gorgeous gauze dress from J.Jill marked down from $99 to $39.99. I also shopped on ebay for some vintage LOGO, which I'm doing more and more lately. I bought a pair of Anybody pants and am eyeing the matching hacci cardi, also on ebay. I watched alot of the presentations yesterday and found the prices really high for what was offered. I don't mind paying the price if the item is something I really want, but most was just not enticing.

I still have 2 beautiful leather jackets from Bradley Bayou. I miss the days where QVC sold nice quality clothing. I also realize that we will never see the return of those days.

@deeva Like you, I need no fall/winter clothes. Daytime temperature here in southern Florida are rarely lower than 75, and from my years of living north I still have a whole wardrobe I like, but I did see a few items right here in the Forum that I liked and thought were well priced.

I'm waiting until after the year-end clearance to buy some new spring and summer pieces. Even the local stores here offer much I want now.

chessylady — Sun, 06 Aug 2023 16:30:53 GMT

I bought nothing. First, it is really hot here in California. I have no need for fall/winter coats/jackets. When I switch closets in late October, I will see what I need and shop accordingly. Last, the sizing of garments at QVC are so varied, I hesitate to order and then have to deal with the Post Office.

@Trinity11. The prices of such goods have escalated beyond what the average QVC buyer is willing to pay.

I watched more Q in the last 2 days than I've watched in years. I saw a few things I liked, but I'm trying to do a low buy year so it needs to be something I really need or want. I didn't end up buying anything.

Well maybe QVC should try offering more of them and see what happens. Clearly, looking at their recent financials what they are doing @Kachina624 isn't working either.

Yes, but its early days yet for fall fashion. Really, this weekend was just the kick-off. Hopefully they will get more interesting later in the month.

I do think it's too early for fall, even by the calendar theres sitll 6 weeks to go....I am probably in the minority as many go back to school soon. Spring and summer are such quick seasons in my area. I hate to see them rushed.
