Thanks for posting.  They are all.....not something I"d ever buy or wear.  

 

Disappointing thus far...

A good friend of mine likes her stuff.

I did have my hands on one of Serena's jackets and it seemed to be of good quality and well constructed but this was a couple of years ago with military inspiration...very structured (which I love)

Re: Serena is back...Fri Apr 22nd TS

I have 2 Serena items and have to say that I have not been happy with the quality.  Actually one cardigan bit the dust awhile ago and the only other item is a sleeveless vest which is O.K. but I think it was WAY overpriced.  On sale I might not have felt it was a bad buy, though.

 

I usually think that her things look really flimsy when presented.

 

I like Serena, though.  She's an awesome athlete!!!

I have many pieces from Serena's collections, more from a few years ago than recently. I have never been disappointed in what I ultimately purchased, but there were a few returns over the years. Just like any line. Some of her items have been and remain favorites of mine.

Re: Serena is back...Fri Apr 22nd TS

I am wearing a Serena top today.  It is the crochet sweater with detachable tank. It is still in inventory but I think the one available now is this year's incarnation.  The one I have is black.  I love it.  I wear it all the time.  It's comfortable, has worn well and washed well.  I love that the tank snaps to the sweater.  

 

I also bought 2 of the TSV tops from last year that had the solid body and the different color sleeves with the asymetrical hem.  I cannot tell you how often I have worn those tops.  I missed out on this year's version of them.

These pants look nice, but too short for me and I would not like the elastic waist in the back. I like this driftwood color as well as the navy and black.

I don't like that there is no flare at all.  I think these look dated on the model.  I liked some of her pieces the first season she displayed her items.  I haven't liked much since.  I don't find them to be flattering on most, and I don't care for the style. 

 

I liked Twiggy's pieces far more.  I also prefer some of Iman's pieces.

I agree Andrea.  Years ago, she had some really nice pieces, and I did like some of her jackets.  She now seems to go more towards these flowly and cheaper-looking items.  It's disappointing as she's obviously talented.

@LisaB - I also like the new dresses. I'm not paying $6 per item for s&h, so I want to see what they do for pricing. Really like that safari style vest but not in suede.

 

I have/wear many of her tops & dresses. Her leggings are awesome - nice fabric & fit. I try to get my fav items from her line on clearance.

 

@LisaB - you should check out the Matisse Wedge Sandals on Evine, it's a TTV tmrw, launching at 11p ET tonight. What do you think??? @Andreatoo has a thread about the sandals. I think I'm in for the natural/blush color
