Re: Colors - Everything does NOT go with everything

Not that I owe anyone an explanation, but I actually don't watch the Logo shows. I tune in a little early on Monday nights to watch Isaac Mizrahi, and I see a few minutes of Logo while waiting for it to come on.

Thank you for clarifying that your very strongly worded first post of condemnation of the LOGO line of clothing is based on watching a few minutes of LOGO while waiting for  Mizrahi.

This is me when I see yet another LOGO NOGO show come on. For me these are weird looking color combinations; hip broadening, impossible to wear layer on layer; and proof positive that everything does NOT go with everything.  But some people will buy into anything if they think it's "stylish". So . . . .

@Perkup  That is not the reason all people buy LOGO. It certainly isn't my reason.  

 

By the way, I dislike most of Mizrahi's line, esp. those enormous cabbage-like flowers. And speaking of color combos....oh well, let's just say I prefer Lori's to Mizrahi's.  He has some real doozies.

Re: Colors - Everything does NOT go with everything

I enjoy my Logo purchases.  I love the Lounge line and I don't do the layering unless it a tank under a cardigan.  I agree that everything doesn't go with everything, so I choose the colors and prints that are appealing to my eyes...just because they show certain combinations in the presentations, doesn't make me want to look like that.  So many people say that the quality of Logo is poor, but my experience has been the opposite.  I have been purchasing for years and my older pieces still look nice.

There are some real/really beautiful intricate LOGO pieces..........in my opinion, showing them individually enhances the intricacies of the fabric(s) and lace. 

'More or less', 'Right or wrong', 'In general', and 'Just thinking out loud ' (as usual).

@AussieLuvr. Yep happens after every logo show. And then the same person will post how nasty you are for saying you don't like logo. Then the ever present turn the channel advice. Like clock work.

Re: Colors - Everything does NOT go with everything

I agree that everything does not go with everything.  First of all, it doesn't even make sense to say that.  Many hosts are now using that phrase.  Or another version of that:  It's everything.  Uh, no it's not everything.  

 

I do like Lori's colors, but they do not all go together.  And that's just a fact.

The Logo models are the worst dressed  models I have ever seen.  Sloppy, messy, mismatched. Horrible. Thin models or heavy models, they all look like slobs.


 

I absolutely agree.   Sometimes I actually feel bad for them.

My taste is my taste, and I don't expect others to shy away from Logo clothing just because I do.

 

The way they combine colors on the shows, however, is horrid. I don't know how the models bring themselves to walk in front of the cameras in some of the combos. Pink and green and brown and gray and camo all at once ..... it just gets worse all the time. 

 

I don't think its even right to sell clothes this way. Some people are color blind and some just don't have a knack for color and if they buy into this premise they can look awful.

 

I have an art degree from Parson's School of Design in New York City and I took two years of Color Theory I, II, III and IV classes. Everything does NOT go with everything.

 

Its embarassing to watch, even if the clothing designs themselves don't turn a person off.


 

Carol--I don't have any design or art degree, but I know what I like.   And it isn't Logo.   Smiley LOL
