Susan's TSV tonight

KathyM23 · ‎11-20-2010

Susan Graver has always been one of my go to's for clothes and I have so many of them. I see that tonight's TSV is rayon and a new peasant top is also rayon. She seems to be transitioning to rayon lately.

While I don't like the TSV I would have been interested in the peasant top were it not rayon.

Rayon is a fabric I will not buy, it is wrinkles and shrinks and seems flimsy to me - definitely always pass on rayon. I do like it if it is blended with cotton and modal and spandex but not on its own with only spandex.

I guess I will be saving a lot of money with this change. She has had several items I passed on because they were rayon. I am disappointed but I guess I shouldn't be as I really don't need more clothes!

@KathyM23 Don't be too quick to judge Rayon as it's come a long way. I've fallen in love the Lori's 230 Rayon which feels very much like Liquid Knit but is more substantial, less clingy, and doesn't wrinkle even when left in a heap, or shrink. It launders beautifully.

I don't have any idea what Susan's Rayon is like but it may be worth trying.

Rayon is a semi-synthetic/natural fabric made from cellulose which comes from wood.

There is higher and lower quality rayon. The best is actually very nice, drapey, and substantial. I never purchased anything from QVC made from rayon. Look at the price of the garment. That might give you a clue as to the quality.

I have never had rayon shrink.

@Kachina624 I fell in love with the green envy color and since I am a pants freak I did cave and order the RAYON (oh no, I have to eat my words!) pair that matched the TSV. As you suggested I will give it a try.

Rayon has always been a no-no for me so we will see.

That TSV is a very easy pass for me. It's very sloppy looking

I am passing on this one. I don't like the back of the cardi.

If my dog doesn't like you, neither do I.

I used to pass on clothes made from rayon and still frown on cheaply made rayon garments. Take a walk through a lot of stores known for selling fabulous fashions at low prices (such as the bullseye, the 8th letter, the navy, and the max) and you'll see quite a bit of it. On the other hand, there is some very nice rayon textile available. Lori Goldstein for example usually offers a wonderful quality rayon. Hers has some beef to it and doesn't become a wrinkled mess during wear time. I've had some other rayon garments from QVC that defy my dislike for the fabric.

The TSV isn't really attracting me although given it is a simple open-front third piece, it could turn out to be one of those things that turn out to be something I would grab to throw over a multitude of outfits. Talking about the TSV makes me think of a similar item I have had for several years that is merino wool and I reach for it a lot during the fall/winter/early spring seasons.
