Canyon Retreat Line

beach-mom — Sat, 11 Mar 2023 07:42:29 GMT

I really enjoy this line, but I have a suggestion:

It would be nice to see the models - and maybe the host and vendor - wearing SOUTHWESTERN jewelry!

Maybe not for every outfit, but I think that type of jewelry would spotlight the clothes more.

Wouldn't it be great if they could wear American West jewelry, since that brand is sold on QVC too! I know that's what I wear with the pieces I have already bought.

Great idea....and I'll bet the Q would agree as it would probably sell more south western jewelry!

too simple for the Q to implement

QVC's stylists are clueless.

They should consult Carolyn Pollack! She has beautiful southwestern clothes! QVC stylists are clueless! They could have clothes,handbags, jewelry ect! Should have left it with denim and company and Gary! Whoever is running the QVC ship is driving it right into the ground!! Completely clueless!!

The entire line would be better if the clothing was actually Southwest inspired. The Canyon Retreat line really doesn't look like Southwestern wear at all.

@beach-mom Smart suggestion...I was not impressed with the Canyon Reteat Line or its representative...it needs something more impressive! Southwestern jewelry could well help what is missing!

I was hoping Canyon Retreat would be more like Sundance, but it has been very disapointing. No recognizable American Indian prints this time.

You are right, accessorizing does make a difference Western jewelry, hats, and boots make the look.

It's like dipping their toes into the style instead of jumping in the whole way.

This is a bit off topic but since it's about western-inspired fashions...

Soon there will be a new show on the Hallmark channel titled "Ride". It's about a small-town Colorado rodeo family (the show is filmed in Alberta). I'm looking forward to seeing the wardrobe on the show. Get some ideas about how to put it together.

Show premieres Sunday March 26.

@Effie54 I've been a tourist in the Southwest and felt perfectly comfortable wearing what I would wear in the Northeast during comparable weather.

I did see some clothing I've never thought to own, but only on those working public jobs in tourist-heavy locations.

I do have a few lovely pieces of turquoise as well as other gems stones from my trips as well as from QVC's lines. I have no idea what would say Southwest clothing for my life, at least not beyond boots or hats maybe.

I've purchased from Rod's Western Wear as well as Shepler's and their designs are different from Canyon Retreat. I'm just saying a little more Southwest influence in that clothing line would make it look more appealing.

I'm in Colorado and we have Sheplers, Cavender's, Boot Barn plus many more small shops. Boot Barn has some very nice things online.
