I just don't think GILI is ""all that"". I was so disappointed in the bag I ordered a month ago. I returned it the same day -- quality -- NOT!!!

In one of her last shows, Lisa mentioned that the Gili line going forward "will reflect someone else's tastes, rather than my own" which I felt was her way of signaling the viewer that she will not be associated with the line after leaving the Q. It will be interesting to see what Lisa does next. Any speculation on whether she will be associated with EVINE Live? This is the new venture that Shop HQ is being transformed into during the next few months. The new CEO of EVINE live worked at both HSN and QVC during his career~ Kathy Levine is also a part of this new venture~ I don't see Lisa being a show host for another network, but I could see her developing a new line or working as a consultant.

Sorry but I can't see Lisa having anything to do with ShopHQ or Evine. Lisa would never fit in with the Minnesota fashions or weather. She loves being in NYC and knows so many vendors in the city, I think her future plans will be associated with something in NY.

The Got it Love It idea could be applied to any host if you think about it. A host could ""buy"" something then Q could do it.

Last week on a tour of QVC, I asked the guide if she knew what was happening to the GILI line and for what it's worth I found her answer interesting. She said that the line is owned by Lisa, it is her line, and that Lisa will continue they are on "pins and needles" hoping Lisa to sell as a vendor on QVC or is she going to take the line in a whole new direction. They don't have an answer yet. I just found that interesting for what it's worth. By the way, I had an interesting experience at Saks in the Gucci boutique. The sales girl was loving my GILI lizard hobo. She checked out every inch of the bag and said the lizard leather was gorgeous and the bag was beautifully made. I think Lisa would have been proud of that. I am hoping she continues somewhere in design.

Sorry, I think someone was "pulling your leg".

Magicmoodz. that is what she said. That is why it is in quotes. I thought her answer was interesting for what it is worth

Have you not seen George Simonton designs? He is a true designer! Not a copy cat!!! That is where you find a true designer. Not only does he sketch his designs, he creates the patterns, sews and does it all. Lisa however is a cut & paste person. She is far from being a designer or having any designer skills period.

I don't think you can really call some one a designer who just makes cheap knockoffs of much more expensive items that she owns. Same with Joan Rivers . They did not , in fact, design anything - they both just copied other designers that they had purchased. They both are /were quite open about this too - they didn't keep it a secret at all.

Almost all designers copy from someone or something else. Or they rip themselves off.

Lisa was always very honest about her items being based on something she owned with her own touches. That's about as good as it gets.

I'm not sure at all what a real designer is - more than likely someone the speaker or writer likes and not a whole lot more.
