That sort of makes the line less than interesting espically for his prices.

Did they forget that we have been the reason behind their success and by ignoring our requests we can also become the reason for their failing? They refuse to be honest about the deterioration of the Tova line and seem to think that they'll receive continued support from us by taking away the very vendors that we support and love. I am very sorry to hear about Louis whom I have come to appreciate and respect not only for his clothing line but that magnificent personality and honest character he possesses (something the QVC had been known for in the past). I will miss Louis and Jac and feel saddened that QVC is ignoring those of us who have supported it all of these years. Too bad, QVC but you must know that we will follow the vendors you have dropped and continue to eliminate from your line-up.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9093285111509044612.post-49806013154775499152010-04-17T12:02:29.704-04:002010-04-17T12:02:29.704-04:00Wow, shocking news, I had no idea.

I hope QVC change their minds, otherwise I expect Louis will be appearing on a competitor's channel, as so many previous hosts and designers have.susan rnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9093285111509044612.post-57270034804586146222010-04-16T22:02:31.611-04:002010-04-16T22:02:31.611-04:00I read Louis' latest post from early evening t...I read Louis' latest post from early evening tonight. It is just full of appreciation, etc. for everything we are doing to keep him on air. The end of the post said that QVC had contacted him "for a discussion on the future of Linea"!!

OVC is deleting our posts to them, so many people are truly unaware of how strongly we feel. I want my clothing from a dedicated designer, not from IM who will sell a blouse and then the next item will be a "plaid cheesecake", to match!! We will follow Louis to any venue he may choose; and to QVC we will just "click OFF" !!nancyehtnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9093285111509044612.post-66857861084243020522010-04-16T07:00:47.167-04:002010-04-16T07:00:47.167-04:00QVC has made no secret of the desire to bring in y...QVC has made no secret of the desire to bring in younger customers. It doesn't matter that we mature customers made the channel what it is today - they would rather have a 25-year-old make one purchase each year than a 55-year-old make 30 or 100 ... They have probably had the older person as a customer for years, but they want to bring in a younger group. No woman I know is buying anything from the IM line - he's very personable but that clothing is for young women, for the most part. QVC changed Citiknits, is dropping Louis ... the only ones left from the old crowd will be Susan Graver, Bob Mackie and Jeanne Bice. There is even talk Bradley Bayou is leaving, but who knows?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9093285111509044612.post-40398117273136318022010-04-15T18:27:30.989-04:002010-04-15T18:27:30.989-04:00Good information on the Linea line.

I don't work outside my home and I wear his jackets with jeans as well as slacks. I think alot of the Linea Ladies feel that their wishes are being ignored and we will wear IM like it or not. I think QVC will see that we will not be forced into liking IM clothing. Yes, there are probably ladies that do like IM, but it is not for everyone. We want to feel that there will be choices in clothing to suit various tastes and lifestyles, just like in any department store.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9093285111509044612.post-8024990219681350792010-04-15T15:27:33.638-04:002010-04-15T15:27:33.638-04:00I'm sorry to hear this.

But so what? If the line has a low return rate and serves a certain demographic that tends to buy other items from QVC, they should keep offering his designs. I think there is a place for fashion for both young and old.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
