I think his sales will go way down because fewer people are watching the show.

Anyway, I guess it is vacations, other projects, etc., but I hope he will be back for his regular Monday night show at 10 PM.

He doesn't design for Qvc anymore. He sold his company to someone else...a Chinese company I believe was posted elsewhere on the forums. All he has to do is show up since it's still his name on the products. I guess it's exhausting work. I know he recently designed for Kleenex.

I'm not sure I believe this. Some facts, please?

Don't find anything on Issac selling to a Chinese company . As a matter of fact Issac does not have a company to sell anymore. In 2011 he sold his company to a corporation called XCEL Brands which is a US Company headquartered in NYC and listed on the US stock exchange. Issac is the Creative Director of XCEL. XCEL is a brand management company which does design, licensing, marketing and retail sales of consumer brands. XCEL owns Liz Claiborne New York and recently purchased the Judith Ripka brand. So Issac could hardly have sold his company to a Chinese company since his company was sold 3 years ago. Wish people would get their facts correct and not post inaccurate information.

All of which does not mean he doesn't design anything anymore.

he is the "Creative Director" for XCEL. he oversees a team of designers and probably does a lot of his own designs for his high end lines but I am sure he simply oversees the design work,for a mass market line like the one that is sold on QVC
