IMAN leaving HSN 😢

I really enjoyed Iman's clothing line and have several pieces. I'm so sad that she's leaving HSN. They're having a celebration for her on March 8.

Oh no, I hadn't heard that. Although I haven't purchased much from her line, I know she had a lot of very loyal followers who loved her fashions.

Sorry to see her go. I have a lot of her pants from around 10 years ago that I still love. Her recent items have seemed different to me -- giant flowers and crazy prints. I saw her recently on a commercial for Pandora.

That's too bad. I have some of her items and am happy with them. Wonder if her line is going to continue and she's just leaving? And wonder if this is the start of "pruning" HSN brands so as not to compete with QVC's e.g, SG and KG?

oh wow! I like IMAN's line. Her clothes are stylish and the prices are reasonable. I hope she is ok! I've noticed she hasn't been on much recently and she has another representative to present her clothes.She is such a legend and I wish her the best!

@Suzeecat As with Diane Gilman, IMAN is a very wealthy woman who probably wants to retire. Diane found Sam to rep her line so it still proliferates on HSN. Perhaps IMAN simply wants to close up shop and pursue her life in other directions. In other words, she doesn't want to spend her time overseeing her line.

Or could it be that she doesn't want to deal with QVC.

@Ainhisg Thanks for posting this. It makes me sad as she is one designer I have really liked over the years. I wonder too if her clohting will continue to be available on HSN down the road. I own many of her pieces and have been thinking she may be ill or just not up to presenting her line anymore. I think she is 69 years old. She has hardly been in the studio now for a couple of years. Kate Holliday always presents her line , she's a former HSNmodel.

Anyway, I wish her well and if I'm not mistaken I believe you and I are big fans of her maxi dresses! I think we discussed sizing way back when. They are my favorite pieces of hers and her jeans have also worked out nicely for me Surely hope the best for her but another sign of the changes sadly.

iman will be 70 this year. wouldnt be surprised if she just wants to retire from this industry.

@LindaSalyes! Big fan of her maxi dresses. You helped me a lot with sizing when I was first buying her clothing. I always looked forward to every spring to see what the dress would be. She often had dresses with empire waists, and that style really suits my pear-shaped figure. All good things must come to an end, but I wasn't quite ready for her clothing line to stop. I could consistently order the same sizes and know things were going to fit.
