Isaac Mizrahi 24/7 stretch pant A-653398

Just finished watching on 7/8/24 new 24/7 stretch pants by Isaac.  I have been buying these for years and are wonderful but now are $75/pair.  These prices are becomming excessive now, especially with the quantity that is brought in each season.

Just saw that.  QVC prices are out of control.  These pants were popular a few years back and were nowhere near this price point.  I will not buy any clothing now that is over 50 dollars.  That may mean waiting for a "sale" price or not buying anything at all, but I'm good with that.  I've found lovely reasonably priced clothing from other companies, so I'll spend my money there.  QVC is going to have to reevaluate its price structure because that V in QVC is  losing its credibility.

I've bought several pairs of the 24/7 pants and each has been a disaster.  They come out of the washer a wrinkled mess and no matter how I dry them, they're so wrinkled they MUST be ironed.  They end up in the donation bag.

I thought the exact same thing about the price myself.  Something that's always puzzled me too is that he doesn't make these with the flat waistband in the back.  They can still have a lot of stretch.  I just don't understand this big price jump at all.😔

These days I do most of my shopping for cloths on Ebay.  Search on the description and item number and more than likely you will find a better price. 

 

My last purchase was a pair of Bob Mackie pants,  The price was $13.59 with free shipping.

A few years ago when Isaac was called the Cardigan King, I bought a few of his cardigan sweaters for $35-$40 each. I haven't bought anything Isaac for a long time, but checked out his new items today & his latest cardigans.

 

Isaac floral cardigan sweater #652875 is $114.00!

There's no way I'd pay that for an Isaac cotton/rayon/nylon cardigan. I doubt that anyone's paycheck has tripled, & neither has inflation. I agree that Q's pricing is way too high.

 

Part of QRate's plan to turn the company's financial situation around included increasing the margins - meaning taking higher markups on goods. I don't want to pay for QRate's business errors with their high pricing strategy. It seems to me that the high prices could backfire & end with even fewer customers.

I completely agree with everything you said!  It seems as though these excessive markups are already costing them...at least with what I'm purchasing fashion wise.  If they indeed are struggling financially, this is a very risky business plan to implement.  It's like a get richer quicker lol.

I found a pair of 24/7 pants at Goodwill a few years ago.  I really liked them probably paid about $5.  They eventually faded from black to a dirty grey.  I would never pay that much for them.  They're priciing themselves right out of business. Maybe Isaac needs another home in the Hamptons.

Sorry folks, it's not just QVC.  The have to compete with other retailiers who's prices have also increased.

 

If you all can find a different place to shop for clothing go ahead.

I stopped shopping for Isaac's clothing a long time ago, not because of the price but the quality is just not there, imo.
