Lizbethem, many people totally agree with you on Lori G's fashion being frumpy and bag lady like. This band of posters below, and several others who will show up( just wait and see).... and who put you down for your opinion feel it is their job to clean up the community..... They are so fast to post to a thread.... and then they act like You do not have a life... LOL! They are on this community 24 hours a day on Moral Patrol They say horrible things about a poster for having an opinion.. and act like they are so sweet and good. It is a laugh fest.

OP, while there's some truth to this, also beware of the contingent that never misses a beat when it comes to trashing certain hosts...

And by the way, Lori's clothes aren't my cup of tea either.

I think it is a matter of lifestyle. I wear a few Logo items, but I don't wear them layered the way Lori does. I think if you are very slim, you can do that. OTOH, I find Linea items too "ladies who lunch" stuffy for me. While I can appreciate them, they do not fit my lifestyle. Still, I,am not going to go online and "diss" his items.

To each their own I guess

I can't wear her clothes. I tried and the fabric felt nice & soft....better than "liquid knit"! Her tops looked good from the waist up but all of that extra fabric at the bottom just added visual weight to my hip area!

Body type is key. I have a long torso and no hips or thighs and fairly wide shoulders. LOGO tops hang perfectly and just skim my body.

Me too, Kathleen. We must have similar body types. I love LOGO, and think it looks great on me. All the people who trash the line and talk about bag ladies and dirty diapers haven't swayed me one bit. . I can see it might not be the best option if one has large hips.

I can see how they would look good on someone like you, but its funny, because I don't think they look good on Lori!

I call this the "bag lady" look because I remember seeing women who lived on the streets of NYC wearing layers of clothes-- i.e. all they owned.

...

OMG ... that might have been me you saw.

I live in Manhattan, and I wear LOGO and I layer. The shopping card I was pushing was my groceries ... not all my belongings!

I think in your case Kathleen it was the other way around. I agree with you Liz

Just goes to show how anyone can take fabric, call themselves a "designer" and people will buy into it. I think of her so called "fashions" as "the Emperor's New Clothes."

Interesting remember the "grunge look" a few decades back sort of reminds me of that.

According to Wiki:

The phrase "emperor's new clothes" has become an idiom about logical fallacies.^[29] The story may be explained by pluralistic ignorance.^[30] The story is about a situation where "no one believes, but everyone believes that everyone else believes. Or alternatively, everyone is ignorant to whether the Emperor has clothes on or not, but believes that everyone else is not ignorant."^[31]
