Confusion re Gems en Vogue 22nd anniversary and Michael Valitutti

depglass · ‎03-10-2010

I happened to hit Shop HQ Gems en Vogue promo page, looks like a big deal coming up with new inventory. Yet Michael is now on HSN. What's going on? Those designs look like his, so is he still connected to Shop HQ? Or does the network own that name and is forging ahead without him?

Interesting, since every item is deply discounted.

@depglass It looks like a flash sale of some of his older inventory there. You're correct though GEV has pieces there, new pieces on HSN and there is Michael Valitutti's own website as well. That 22nd anniversary video was from a while ago. His pieces are so pretty & I own a couple of them

From what I remember Michael saying, he is no longer associated with Shop HQ. These items are all old inventory that the network is clearing. Michael will be on HSN this Thursday, June 3rd at 4:00 PM eastern with Sarah Anderson.

Come to think of it, I think they did say prices good today only. I wouldn't know this is all old inventory because I've pretty much given up on Shop HQ since the Three Amigos were canned, or left or whatever.
