Pretty George simonton top but...

I think his capelet tops are so pretty and this one today especially so in the aquamarine color. BUT - they are asking $46.50 plus $6.50 S&H so it costs $52.72 for a polyester top that probably cost them $5 to manufacture. Sorry QVC. I will never want a polyester top that badly. It is A200830. I guess I'll keep an eye out to see if it goes on clearance when the fall stuff comes out. I could not wear it this time of year anyway - i can't stand to wear polyester in the hot humid summer.

I think almost everything is polyester, isn't it?

I've been tempted by a few of GS's pieces, but the price tag always keeps me from purchasing.

You just have to keep telling yourself ""But its designer!"" to justify the price. Same goes for all QVC tops now days.

It's a pretty top, HH, but it seems like everyone's using polyester right now. With those loose sleeves I'm not sure I'd worry about being too hot in it.

The point is that polyester is cheap cheap cheap and yet they are charging an arm and a leg for it.

I know but right now polyester is in a lot of stores and it's pricey. I turned down several Chico's tops because of it.

There was a skirt on clearance in the early AM today but it was cut very skimpy by the click here size so I passed on that too. It came in a very pretty plum color though.

I oove his designs but I think whoever sets the QVC prices anymore is smoking loco weed.
