Fashion

I bought 2 of her ribbed shaping tank tops on clearance for about $5 each a while back. That is my only DG purchase so far. they seem to be well made but I have not worn them yet. They sure fit tight but I wanted them to wear under things like loose weave sweaters that you can see through. I can't imagine anyone wearing them w/o something over them any more than another shaper unless they sized up.

She seems to be following Renee Greenstein's shtick with the bending and stretching and she called them dream jeans. I guess you could add in some Susan Graver type selling points too. The jeans do look great though. I may have to try some of her fashions, since I am bored with QVC's.

I've heard good things about her shaping tanks, you got a good deal. They will look great under jean jackets, etc. Wish I'd gotten some!

That stretching reminded me of the last Tony Little shoe TS presentations. The models were stretching and bending their feet all over the place. I understand the point of doing it but it is really annoying after the first time.

lol.... I am pretty sure no one will say this was a flop if they do not sell out!

If Diane can wear the smallest size offered, how in the heck would someone super thin wear these? She'd need to make 000's for those that are a true size 0. I'm not even that tiny, and I can't wear her jeans. She said she was wearing the smallest size? I don't get that.

That is not a selling point for those smaller than a size 6.

I enjoy her, but have never bought any of her items.

I have been buying her clothes for at least 10 years now! Love her tops, jackets and jeans. I have gone through many sizes..wish I'd kept them because now I'm back in the smaller sizes, who knew??

I used to really like her jeans. BUT...after I wore them 2 times, they stretched out 2 sizes too big. I don't think her sizing is consistent either. Her 2's in some styles are like a 6/8.

Good question.

The new fabrics she uses are supposed to hold their shape - not get stretched out. That is why I am interested in trying them now after avoiding them for years. If you liked them in other ways you might want to try the styles with the new fabrics.
