Personally, I like her clothes.  You may not like her, her attitude, her values, etc . . . Hey, she may not like you either!

[hullie]

I seldom comment but I would not purchase anything with her name on it. I feel it would be condoning and enabling a person with very undesirable qualities. I wish QVC would do a quality check on the person hawking the merchandise.

Maybe it is the length, maybe it is the color but bathrobe describes it.

I think it's the combination of fabric and length.  It's too long for a ribbed knit fabric.  It doesn't hang properly - looks droopy and shapeless..  

It would look better if it were knee length or shorter.  

I had a pattern for a knitted shin length duster ... I had to eliminate about 10 inches to get the right drape/hang. 

[ROMARY]

I've been loving duster length items since the 70's, maybe the 80's (?).

In fact, I still have and wear an apricot cable knit sweater vest duster. 

Medium-light weight, not heavy.

I wear it over leggings for coverage.

 It's in 'perfect' condition, as I have taken very good care of it. 

The style slightly 'disappeared' for a few years or so in-between, but it's back and I'm glad.

Well, she kind of already said she didn’t, so...

Honestly, at one point, one just has to say enough. She’s not saying things jokingly; she’s saying them because she means them. I personally like her clothes too - they looked good on me.  But, you know, so do many other designers.

She is rude, crude and offensive.  Why QVC has her on is beyond me.  I would go naked before I gave her a penny.

Whose criteria do you propose that QVC use to determine "quality"?  

If it were mine - there are at least four name brands I won't buy because of whom they are associated with. 

ETA:  Oh! .... and there is a  vendor who once said something I found offensive .... so let's get rid of that person also!

I'll save my vitriol for the My Pillow guy.  LOL

Getting back to the subject at hand-- the TSV-- l don't care for it. It's too long and boxy, and unflattering whether you're petite or tall, size xxs or 3x. JMHO.
