Anyone know what happened to Alison Duncan from Tignanello?

CANDLEQUEEN — Thu, 02 Apr 2015 19:49:11 GMT

She was the tall blond who had a baby and she came back after her baby was born, but haven't seen her in a long time.......Just curious, as I always liked her as their rep!

I miss her. She was one of my favorite vendors. Any guess on where she might be would be purely speculation on my part.

As this brand seems to be commanding less and less QVC air time, my guess is that she moved on to something else, but don't really know.

I thought she was good too. She was personable, unpretentious and nice to look at.

I hope she got a promotion. I can't imagine it would be fun to leave her baby and come here all of the time.

I like her a lot. She is thorough with her descriptions, probably because she is (was?) the design director for Tignanello. She is also kind, gentle and pleasant -- not harsh, fierce or bossy. While I think she is probably more in design, she would make a great host.

I believe her married name is Miller. If memory serves (sometimes it does NOT anymore, I admit), she is also an attorney. Perhaps she is employed as a lawyer at the present time. Tig does not have as much air time as it used to. Maybe the company is going through some restructuring or a buyout. It seems to happen a lot in the retail world these days.

I miss her as well. She could sell me anything. Please bring her back QVC. I agree she would make a great QVC host.

I miss her too. She was so pretty and dressed so nice. She was always very professional and informative. I also like Christy too.

Isn't Tig owned by the same Chinese company that owns Makowsky? Those cost cutting measures of using part vinyl really hurt their image. I always had the feeling Alison worked for QVC. I hope they bring her back with another line.

Some of these product representatives work for the brand (like Amy from Clarks and Liam of Orthaheel) and others are "professional on-air presenters." Megan who sells Genie bras and the epilators is an example of a "professional presenter."

I thought Alison actually held a position within the Tiganello company. If so, maybe she's working in that position and leaves the on air presenting to the other gal (who I happen to prefer because she looks just like a friend of mine!)

I always enjoyed seeing Allison on the shows. At one time she was, or maybe still is, the head design director for Tignanello. She worked closely with Kathy V. and Bruce M. She is also a licensed attorney. It looks like Christy will continue to be the on-air spokesperson at QVC.

Yes. It used to be Li and Fung, but last year changed the name to GBG USA. I did some research on this a few years ago. They own a lot of handbag companies and fashion labels now, although they haven't gotten to Coach and Dooney and Bourke yet! I just read they acquired Tommy Hilfiger, and I just bought one of his bags on sale! Had I known, I might have thought twice about it! At the time of the acquisition of KVZ and B Mak bags, they did retain Kathy as their company head designer.

I went to Macy's today to touch and feel the tig bags so I would know which one to order on QVC.....and guess what? Macy's is discontinuing Tig bags. Tig really damaged a great line of bags when they cheapened the brand by using vinyl instead of leather. Guess QVC isn't the only one cutting tig bags.

I liked her too and wondered what happened to her. I know she had a law degree. Perhaps she's pursuing another career, or maybe decided to be a stay-at-home mom.
