Since Basso and Isaac are the only 2 true designers QVC has, I think the models would be thrilled to work with either one of them.

Just for the heck of it, I searched for any lawsuits.  If he is indeed all that, someone would have sued??

 

Nothing out there that I could find.  

I don't mind watching him.

To me Dennis Basso is a little rascal with a naughty boy smile. He does not offend me--I love how passionate he is about the clothes he designs. I also love to see the way he treats Maria the model--so gentle and caring.

Dennis Basso is a superior designer. Over the years, I have purchased; many of his items; I have always been highly pleased. I know his attitude is not instantly attractive, but I think he's great.

All I can do is laugh at this post.

Good or not, that's the world of fashion. Models are tools for designers to display their fashion. I've seen youtube videos about how painful the shoes are for runway models to wear. They're usually the same size so the models have to learn to walk in shoes that are too tight or loose. Models want those careers though.

Yes, I like Dennis Basso's coats.   They are well made and look amazing!

He has several models who work with him often, like Maria, like Kate, so they must be comfortable with him. Any model who didn't feel comfortable with him doesn't have to take that job. They aren't QVC employees. The models who have experience doing shows might be comfortable. They run off the stage and are dressed and undressed, and the designer can tweak an outfit before they take the stage. Isaac, while not as handsy as Dennis (at least on the Q) still tweaks models outfits, shuzzing this and that.

Dennis Basso makes a lot of money for QVC and all of our complaints about his inappropriate touching/rubbing the models breasts, his cursing, his rudeness, and his bossy attitude will do nothing. Absolutely nothing! I just don’t buy his products and I’m ready to drop QVC because of him.
