I know this has been discussed before but Susan is only known in the QVC world and you might see some of her clothing at value stores, I guess when QVC ships their leftover inventory out. I haven't been going to the mall lately but I happened to be there the other day and so many values of nice clothing. Found some great jeans that actually fit me for $24 and look pretty decent. I don't see any Thanksgiving sales here.

I love her and her designs, except I'm getting weary of tunics by now.  And she's priced most of her items beyond what I'm willing to pay.  I did like the sweater she had on, but thought it was way over-priced.

I've always been happy with the items, all tops, I've received from SG.  However, I only buy them when the price has been significantly reduced.  Otherwise, I can find the same quality at Macy's in the JM and Charter Club brands.  IMO, SG is way overpriced.

Her prices are more than I want to pay, but I will buy TSV's and 'As is' SG items.

I do love Susan Graver's clothes - mainly for the quality and feel of the fabrics she uses and the details you find in a well made garment.  I too am tired of all the tunic lengths tho - mainly because I am petite.  Has saved me a lot of money because I have seen many I really want, but they are too long for me!  I wish they were a little shorter or came in petite.

 

For the most part, the prices are in line for the cost of the fabric and extra manufacturing steps in added details.  I have found that when an item has a "special" price the the One Day Only, there is a difference in the feel of the fabric allowing the lower cost.  Of course, I don't want to pay a lot, but I am willing to pay for an item that feels good on.

@kaydee50Was in my local Macys yesterday -  tried on many items less expensive than SG.  Came home with nothing.  Will try Macys again maybe in 3 or 4 years -  for now I'm with the thousands of shoppers who know that when they like what Susan brings, it's going to be worth what we pay.

I can't figure out who wears all that liquid knit this time of year?  It's  so flimsy and lightweight, people in colder climates would freeze in it.  I have my share but never touch it in winter.  Is it all cruise wear or for people in warm places?

It's in the mid-forties here today. I wore liquid knit pants and top to go out to Thanksgiving dinner.  Since I was outdoors a minimal amount of time, I was quite comfortable.

I have only purchased a few SG items...two skorts + a very pretty top that is great for spring/summer. My all time favorite item is a black turtleneck sweater (I bought on clearance) that has a silver lurex thread woven into the black fiber knit. It is not itchy or scratchy but so soft and comfy. It has just enough shimmer to be festive but not so sparkley its crazy. Every time I wear it I get a ton of compliments. It was an impilsle buy and it has been the best item ever.

Although I love Susan's designs, I have to admit that at Thanksgiving dinner at my sister's home, I was wearing a Graver top and I was cold.  New York was in the high 30s today.  I should have worn a sweater!
