I'm Ripka Shopped Out, Now I Want Linea Vests

Then, the famous last words, I'm done! I have a great Linea wardrobe now and fab jewelry, so i must show some self control.

I love that vest in white, perhaps aqua. Not a denim person but I may change my mind once i see it!

Have a great day, all {#emotions_dlg.biggrin}.

Thank you, sister Sheesh! I thought I was talking into space, well I guess I am! Anyway, I think the vests will be great and they will be perfect for AZ in April Smiley Happy

waterbaby, I know that feeling of not reaching a welcoming ear. I'm not a vest kind of girl, but I share your general Linea enthusiasm.

It is grand the way Louis meets the needs of his ladies who share some common bonds but then veer off into their own particular likes. Of course lifestyle and body type dictate much of what we want in our wardrobe.

Hey, Waterbaby, I'm eager for all of the Linea denim pieces. I love the ones I already have and am thrilled he got the okay to make more. His denim is lightweight and high quality. Washes beautifully. I have tossed the pants in washer and dryer many times. They don't need to be babied. Great weight for summer, too. I like the white vest, too.

Yes, he does--I totally agree. I see that he truly listens and takes our comments and suggestions to heart--even those of us who are newbies and not in the "inner circle." Every voice matters. That's why I'm hopeful Louis will address the length issues for his tall customers. I have a feeling he will do it somehow, sometime.

Grace...Louis is the best about designing things we like and the colors we would like. Of course, even though he pitches things doesn't mean QVC buyers will agree. All they have to do is read this forum and his blog. The ponte pants that everyone loves need to come in petite, reg and tall. I'm just going to get another thing hemmed! So hang in there, let's hope he has lots of goodies that work for us all. Be blessed!

Re: I'm Ripka Shopped Out, Now I Want Linea Vests

A bit of history here. There have been NUMEROUS threads about the need for Talls here on this forum as well as on Louis' blog. With many, many responders. Louis has requested Talls time and again, giving the QVC buyer reference to the threads here. They have all fallen on deaf ears, despite the demand expressed here time and time again. And over several years. The buyer for Linea has changed and with the same disappointing results.

If it were up to Louis alone, Linea would include Talls. QVC is willing to buy Petites, but not Talls.
