Denim and Company will not be the same

Georgiagrama · ‎03-19-2010

Let's be honest. D & C clothing is geared for older women with real bodies. Whether you liked her or not, Carolyn was perfect as the saleswoman. Her lifestyle seemed to lend itself well for the comfortable, cute clothing line.

If QVC thinks the Canyon Retreat introduction with a younger host is going to increase sales with a younger more "hip" group - short of having Yellowstones Beth Dutton herself as the saleswoman, it's not going to work.

Totally not going to be the same. Sad

While I agree @Georgiagrama that Denim & Co would not be the same without Carolyn, I do not understand your comment about "real bodies". What is a REAL BODY?

Carolyn was an excellent host and representative of the D&C line. She seemed to truly love the style and not only own it but appeared to actually wear this line. However, I am a female, have a real body, but this line never worked for me. Too boxy, too high rise, and just rarely looked good on me. Now, my mother and grandmother, they loved this line and purchased items. Again, I am unclear, do I not have a real body because this line doesn't fit me well?

@cjm61

Please do not try to read something into my post that isn't intended. While everyone has a "real body", not everyone is comfortable in more fitted clothing. I think you know exactly what I was trying to say, it's been said many times before,and by every designer, so I'll just leave this alone. Have a wonderful day.

Respectfully, I disagree . I was a long time Denim & Co. customer and I always found something I wanted to order. Since Gary took over I feel the line has gone downhill. I think there is a way to make attractive clothing for most age groups ( ok not 20 something's.) Sorry, I did not care for Carolyn, though I certainly didn't wish for her removal, and Gary seems like a nice man , but I think D&Co needs a revamp. Only time will tell how it all shakes out.

@Georgiagrama Sorry you seem to be so upset. I do not wear tight fitting clothing. You seem to be very judgemental. Because a person has a different body type than yours does not mean they do not have a real body nor does it mean a person wears tight clothing.

@cjm61 She asked you not to read into it very nicely. Let it go.

@QVCkitty1 I actually agree with you about that. I haven't purchased D & C in a while because the line has seemed to go downhill. I don't think Canyon Retreat is the answer, but I would like to see a refresh.

@Georgiagrama ,Your correct, i don't think many younger women would be buying denim& company clothing.

When you lose some one you L~O~V~E, that Memory of them, becomes a TREASURE.

I think the "real bodies" the OP was referring to was women of a certain age who do not have "bodies" like a 20 something. Since I assume most women who watch D&C are quite a bit older than 20!! that's the "real bodies" I assume she was referring to.

I rarely buy D&C anymore because of the prices. I can find the same thing elsewhere for a much lower price point.

AND I wish posters would stop attacking/criticizing each other for their opinions!!!
