Anyone shop and own their clothing? Do you consider it below/average or above/hight quality?

I used to but stopped a good while ago.

I found it to be below average. Cheapy quality, poor materials. JMHO

I remember when visiting my Mom perusing her mail magazines, relaxing after an air flight,

and this was over 15 years ago. Honestly, they used to be quite nice.

However times change and I would not have any interest in them anymore. Mom did have good taste though and I looked at her mailers? Is that is what they are called that comes in the mail box? Catalogs, bingo! lol.

Wasn't that the catalog that had these sexy models that looked like exotic dancers dressed for day jobs? Lots of bouncy hair and cleavage? I kind of miss those days of finding handfuls of catalogs in the mail; you never knew what would show up.

Bought a couple of really nice dresses over the years for special events. I don't wear really short nor the ones with one's chest all exposed . Years ago their , 2 piece sets jacket & pants for everyday made of synthetic fabric were nice . Their sizing is not generous like QVC so beware and I had read on line there have been problems with issuing refunds .

Definitely not that I remember. I bought an equestrian style jacket from them that I really liked (not overly fancy--just the collar and button style). Too bad I had it dry cleaned and it practically fell apart. I honestly thought they went out a long time ago

@rms1954 I didn't know they were still in business. I do have a denim jacket I purchased about 15 years ago and it's the one I reach for every time...the best soft fabric and good fit.

I used to purchase a lot of Boston Proper clothing many years ago. Mostly their dresses. Very good quality and good fit. They sold clothing that not every other designer was selling like qvc designers do. I have not purchased anything from them in years. Will have to go online and check them out.
