Re: Scarfs, QVC

[ Edited ]

Don't own one and have never worn one. Have no use for them. Doesn't get cold enough here to wear a coat let alone a scarf. In fact I can't remember the last time I even wore a coat. I think it was in 2006 on my Alaskan cruise.

@decaf .  Agreed.  However, if QVC is selling a top and they show how to use a scarf with it, then the viewer might buy the top and the scarf.  QVC will then profit from the sale of both items.


@Fribwl  I don't see it as profitable. If they only show 6 or 7 items per hour, they want them all to be $50 and much higher, pants, blouses, coats, shoes, etc.  Sometimes the hosts do mention items that go together, but that's secondary, their only goal is to maximize profits.

@Fribwl  An Accessory Style show would be nice to see. Katrina would be a great host for it. Adding accessories like.scarves (or scarfs, depending on your accent. I say scarfs) can be tricky. I recently purchased a pair of gouchos from Women With Control and love them but had no idea how to add accessories. I had to Google it to see the scale of earrings and handbag to wear. Great suggestion. 😊

@HonestLife  Great idea!  Why just a scarf?  They can show handbags jewelry shoes etc.  Also color combinations.  I don't always see certain colors going together.   And yet Leah one morning had KG's pink and orange top on with WwC orange pants.  I never would have guessed that those two colors together would match. It looked great.

@Fribwl   I love scarves and have a ton of them.  It's too hot now, but come fall and until spring, I'll be wearing them all the time.  I would like an hour of scarves too.

 

Check out the ones from Isaac Mizrahi, his are very nice, and if you watch the presentations, many times, Jackie will show how to use a scarf. .

There are many tutorials on You Tube on how to tie a scarf. QVC would probably sell polyester scarves, anyway, which would be uncomfortable to wear.

 

The MET store is a great source for silk scarves. Beautiful and relatively inexpensive when they run a sale...

Scarves for warmth are essential to many  people. I'm in Southern California and even wear one occasionally when it's cold and I'm out early. But the lighter weight silky scarves worn as a Fashion accessory, too fussy for me!
