for us. Otherwise, her styles often appeal to me, but i do not buy anything in her line due to the length issue.


I agree!   ....and it's not just the overall length issue but her long sleeves are always much too long!  I have given up on her items.

CanNOT abide her, her schtick or her mediocre product lines. But I must admit, at first I enjoyed her.

Re: Kim Gravel Take Over

I just can't understand why so many don't search out items made here in US. I find tons. I look at some of the prices, and I buy American made, (designed, fabric made here) clothing for same price as some the clothing here on Q. Kim seems like a beautiful woman, obviously she has done well. You can't get that popular, without a good base that is buying,.. so she is doing well!   For being a woman in this business, I applaud her.  It ain't easy!  But, I have a difficult time sometimes seeing made in China junk sold for prices , (or nearly) in lieu of Americans who work here, spend their money here, live here. It's good to know my purchase pays my neighbors wages in a way.  I do buy from overseas, how can we help it. But rarely. Anyway, enough I am off my soapbox and on to a Rocky Road bar I spied in Halloween candy!

Kim is a big frog in a small pond.  The Q is providing fewer choices but because Kim sells, she will occupy more time. At some point, her elevated prices will deter more people, her acting will further grate on nerves and with economic projections as they are, all of us will be buying less. Kim is a multimillionaire and I am sure she has invested wisely.

Forbes has an article on Kim's success at QVC, her brand is the first in QVC history to sell over $250 million in one year. Her company sales exceed 1 billion. I'm happy for her success.

I am happy for any successful woman, but I won't purchase just because she has her finger in everything going. Also yes, I turn her off when I have had enough. A little kim goes a long way. Her clothing line presently seems over priced to me, and the quality is not always there. (I will purchase every now and then, but never from  her cosmetic line. The packaging is cheap and the product mediocre.)

 

I shop elsewhere now. Overall Q fashion is no longer a go to for me. 

 

All that being said I'am glad she is on QVC, as Isaac has left and there is a gap now. I wish there were more successful lines on the Q and not just Kim and Susan Graver over and over again. They are the reasons I have moved on to other shopping sites.

I think if you don't care for a vendor or her product,  you need to turn off the TV and forget she exists.  Obviously not every product is for everyone but Kim is helping keep QVC alive. 

 

They are not going to end the contract of a highly successful vendor because YOU don't like her.  Get over it.

Agree with you, love her pants and almost always happy with them. No fuss no muss pants / jeans shopping.

Her pants are amazing!  Yes I find her tops are too long for short women and there are plenty of them.  Women shrink when they age.  That's the only weakness I see in her products.  But that could be a policy for QVC.  Many of the other designers offer only 26 1/2" length for tops.  Sometimes I get lucky and see one for 24" length though.  I do buy Kim's pants though.
