A470129 Isaac Mizrahi Top

[ Edited ]

Watching Isaac and Amy's show and I almost bought this top on sale for 24.98. Cute shirt, Isaac kept saying just get it, or buy 2 or 3 Darling !!  Then I read the reviews and it has a 2.3 rating, some said it shrunk, another said different lengths so I decided not to take the plunge. No wonder it was only 24.98. I own many Isaac tops and love them, they wash well, no shrinking or fading, I do iron lightly but they have held up very well. Does anyone else read the reviews before buying any fashion with a deep discount ?  I will start doing that.  It actually sold out !

Yes, I read the reviews, and decided not to take a chance on the top.  Thank goodness we are able to check some of these deeply discounted items.  The hosts/vendors make it sound great, but more often than not, there is a good reason why you are getting such a bargain.

@Goodie2shoes    Yes!  Often when they really push something they're selling much cheaper than usual, including some TSVs, the item is a dog they're trying to dump.

 

I no long buy Isaac's tees.  They shrink if dried in the dryer and when dried on a hanger, the wrinkle terribly and must be ironed.  Give me good old cotton or cotton/Spandex Denim & Co.  No shrinking, wrinkling or fading.

@Goodie2shoes After shopping the Q for years, it was only in the last year or so, when things started getting so Wonky with the Q that I started doing that! I actually do it most of the time now! I always mean to pay it forward & leave more of my own, but while I do, I need to do more of it. Hey we're all in this together & if we're going to continue to dip our toes into the water.... maybe more hesitently than in the past, we have to help each other out!Smiley Happy

Re: A470129 Isaac Mizrahi Top

I thought about the Isaac top and then remembered that I learned this lesson about a month ago when there was a Graver top one time only.  They were about $27 and I bought two.  I like much of Susan's clothes, with the exception of liquid knit.  As soon as I took these tops out of the package, I could see that they were smaller than normal.  I looked at the reviews and saw complaints where others also thought too small.  I will wear them in the cold weather as an extra layer.  Wearable due to the stretch but don't want to be seen in public wearing it.

@Goodie2shoes I read all reviews before buying ANYTHING here, on Amazon or anywhere else.

Re: A470129 Isaac Mizrahi Top

I check out reviews as well.  What I look for is consistency in a review.  Some reviews are not helpful at all.  It is Important to give a review that is helpful and not like some I have read. 

If too much of a bargain usually a reason.

 

I have several of Issac's layering pieces but none  of his tops.I really like the pieces I have.
