I have some Slinky. Some of the prints are a bit loud for my taste, and I agree with the remarks about Jackie's voice - very irritating! I also like Carolyn Strauss fashions on HSN, which I think are similar to Slinky, and I sometimes mix them.

I wonder of CS is on her way out from HSN? She hasn't been on in a very long time and a lot of her items are on clearance. I found her FB page to see if there was any information about future visits.

Someone asked when she'd be on HSN next and she responded that she had no visits scheduled and that all her new items were put on the website but if we wanted to see her back, to contact Mindy Grossman. {#emotions_dlg.confused1}

I was eyeing this dress, but they call it a "maxi". Would you consider this long enough for a maxi? I need something for an outdoor wedding this summer.

I have never bought anything from the Slinky brand. I once made the mistake of buying a liquid knit top. Can anyone tell me the difference between the two fabrics? Thank you in advance.

I like Slinky but some of the prints are not for me. Jackie has toned her voice down a lot, she used to be a lot louder. As someone mentioned CSC Studio is nice as well but I am fairly certain that line will not be offered on HSN much longer.

I'm glad the dresses don't go to the ankles--it gives shorter women a shot at wearing them successfully.

At 5 feet tall it lets me buy them with out an additional $20 charge to hem them

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

I've only bought the crochet type jackets and they are not liquid knit. But for her other ? Ladies, can you help?

I read the title and immediately thought: HSN is selling toys now?

I personally would call this dress tea length or cocktail. I generally find slinky not my style but this would be a lovely dress for an afternoon/early evening wedding. But that is just my opinion-- it is a lovely dress and colour.
