Affordable GILI?

[ Edited ]

I'm sorry Shawn, but a high neck PLEATHER t shirt for $49 with $3 shipping totaling $52 is NOT affordable.  $78 + $3 for zip front yoga pants are not affrodable...Seriously.

And now we have a $78.50 pair of pants.

I did order the dress, the first item of show, I hope the sizing is ok, as in the past, this brand had a huge si/zing issues for me..Dresses very large and long, hopefully, this dress is cut  different

But...it was "Fleather" (faux leather) and not just the old pleather! 😂

 

Surely that's worth an extra $10-15 at least?

I bought a faux leather skirt from the Gili line.  Its really, really nice.  I got the black, then went back and ordered the gray.

With s/handling and tax....I don't think it's a deal at all.

$49 for a fake leather Tshirt is not too out of line with what such a thing might cost in stores. YVMV obviously, some of the other GILI things have been too much money

Perhaps it's not affordable to YOU but those prices are dirt cheap to someone else.  It's all relative.......   Otherwise, why QVC sell them....lol

Can we afford to buy it? Sure but are the prices reasonable? I say 'no'. There's perceived value that one generally attributes to a designer....Gili is QVC's exclusive line. I frankly find it arrogant of them but if people are willing to pay it....
