Very rarely (most times never) do I love even one outfit from designer collections, so this Spring 2025 collection from Josie Natori was a pleasant surprise because I loved so many items/outfits in it.

I liked the few tops I purchased from her line of clothing on HSN called N Natori (2014-ish), but none survived The Purge. Of course, I've seen her apparel and lingerie throughout the years at "better" department stores, too, which, frankly and not surprisingly, were much better quality than the HSN line.

Naturally, being a veteran member of the Q forums, I could quibble over a few minor details😆...I liked the origami flower petals, for example, but not paired with the origami flower petal sandals.  But, I loved the origami sandals with the other outfits...go figure.

I also must say that I appreciate that this lovely young woman had a serious look on her face (since models are, apparently, not allowed to smile nowadays) rather than that surly, "get the [bleep] out of my way" scowl that I'm sick of seeing.  This woman looks dignified compared.

What do you think?


#1 The origami sandals are an origami bridge too far



#2   Sooo feminine...love the dip dye



#3 Would prefer a slimmer pant or no pant



#4 Would prefer a slim pant with this longer jacket, too



#5 These pants, which I looove, would be perfect with the jacket above...don't like this top and the heels would kill me 🥹



#6 



#7 ❤️But would want a longer sleeve and if I could adjust/tamp down the collar a bit (it looks soft enough to do), then this would be the one I'd buy first if I had lots of money to blow😁...love the color and the sandals are perfect with this



#8 I want this white blouse in my collection!



#9



#10  A modern architectural vibe (?)...would love to see the movement of this dress coming down the runway...not crazy about the color



#11  ❤️  I'd be able to wear this out to dinner here in the semi-boondocks



#12



#13


Thanks to all for reading and/or commenting...hope you have a great day.

I think they are all lovely but seem impractical choices for most of us.

My favorite is #8. Like you, love the white blouse and the pants are so pretty.

Next is #8, the sky blue is beautiful although the neck is too high and the pants a bit too short.

I do love the black outfit in #13 although I wish the pants were wide leg. Very feminine and elegant.

@MacDuFF  Love #11. Nice for a summer outdoor get together. I would need a small heel though.

#6 such a pretty dress.

Thanks for the fashion.

Just think if you were sewing some of these creations, how many yards of fabric it would require!

I am thinking a taller model would do more justice to the fashions.  The attractive girl is almost,too tiny for those styles.

Such pretty and feminine fashion.  As others stated, not practical for most of us, but the dresses (#1, 2, and 6) would be perfect for a summer wedding or a shower.  

The tan jacket is a stunner and I would wear it with jeans. 

The white dress you mentioned for dining out in, would be a disaster for me.......I would leave the restaurant with some residue of spillage of some sort.  lol  If I didn't spill food, I would sit in something......

I love this designer and wish she still offered a line on one of the home shopping channels.  

Thanks for sharing~

Wow.  We seem to have the same taste.

Overall, a nice simplistic style I like.

However, I agree, the shoes have to go!

I love every single one but not all for me. She has a very good eye for design and I have purchased from her in the past.  I once bought Natori loungegwear on Amz which was very similar to Barefoot Dreams without the high price tag.  

Her designs for the upscale department store are beautiful and pricey too, usually made for tiny women.  She is a great designer.

Thank you for posting these.

All nice choices.......Thinking back, I particularly like Number 13 (black lace outfit).

I'll be back (with a pen and paper).
