Have you seen – Kate Middleton and Prince William have named their new son Prince Louis Arthur Charles! Louis, you’ll always be our Prince of Fashion!
Dear Ruth, no I hadn’t heard….Actually, my mother wanted to name me James after my father, but my father’s father, my grand father, wanted my parents to name me Louis after my father’s brother……so you see who won…..LOL. Personally, I always preferred James over Louis. That’s why Jac always called me her Louie, which I liked better…..like Louie the X1V….Jac was the only one allowed to call me Louie. That’s the way we liked it……I will always be Louis. I’ve learned to like it. I guess it is a bit unusual. It’s not a name you hear that often.
HI Louis– my hubby is also a Louis, and I can tell someone’s “history” with him by whether they call him “Louis”– his sisters and his late parents– or “Louie”– people who went to school with him– and “Lou” for everyone else, including me, who met him as an adult.
He knows not to interrupt or hit the remote when you are on the Q. He calls you “the other Louis.” And he often inquires “is that a Louis” by way of complimenting an outfit I am wearing. Actually, by now he assumes virtually everything I wear is a “Louis” and will say “That’s a nice Louis you are wearing” LOL!!!!!–Blinddogs
The “Seed Bead” necklaces are now offered with four EZPays. Here is your opportunity if you have hesitated because of the cost.
Goldie you should let the women know on the Linea Forum in case it’s not there already
I did, Louis. Picked up my Royal Blue.
Louis, the new colors for the seed bead necklaces have been available for 2 days now, but still no images are available on QVC. I know we have seen sneak peeks of the colors; pink, red, and topaz. Is the “royal” a mistake? I would assume it includes royal blue? Sometimes QVC color names make no sense, so I’m really wondering what it looks like.
Caroline…..my sneak peeks are posted.
Well I placed my order yesterday for the pink and blue necklaces but there was a computer problem and I now have 3 blue and one pink coming and they won’t let me cancel or edit them . I caught the problem within hours but they say it can’t be changed. The Q is getting to be a real pain is it because new owners ? I’ll need to change one of those blues for a red instead.
Louis,
Just got the Denim dress in the Camo. I love it so much, I ordered another for back-up.
I know a few of the ladies are having troubles with the ties.
Here’s what I did. I took the ties out, folded the cuff up and reinserted the ties from the opposite way and tied on the outside of the folded cuff. Vwa-la. Problem solved and looks so good.
I must say though, I did have to push them through with a bit of effort, because of the “knot” at the ends, but went through nicely.
I would love to see this dress in more colors!
Shari….compliments to you……”where there is a will there is a way!” That was a very clever way of dealing with the ties. For my petites this is perfect, because it shortens the sleeve a good 2 to 2/2 inches, plus the ties become shorter hanging on the arm.
Louis, I’ve voted three times now for your gorgeous Bridal Gown in the London Sweepstakes on the QVC home page. I had a ballet pink re-embroidered lace wedding dress with chiffon skirt, so I loved seeing the ombré blush on your design. IMHO your design blows the others away, so I’m here to urge all you fans to vote every day. It’s a pain to go through all the pages to get to it, but you only have to do it once. After that, it’s easy and fast to enter once a day.
Counting on all our Linea Ladies to VOTE. With luck, one of us could even win a prize!
Crdlb
Thank you for the info Carol, I just voted for Louis’s dress. It is so gorgeous! I’ll be voting daily for it!
Dear Carol, I haven’t seen any of the entries……Has QVC America posted them somewhere or just QVC England?
I didn’t know we could VOTE??? I’m going to do it now!
They’re pretty well hidden! If you go to the home page of the QVC website and scroll wayyyyy down the page to the London Sweepstakes and fill out three screens worth of information, you finally get to the voting and the sketches, Every time you vote after that, you only have to enter your email address. They only allow one vote per day.
Your design is far and away the winner in my estimation, as a totally unbiased LDO devotee!
Crdlb.
too much work to look at the pics…..Are there many?
There are four: yours, a Dennis Basso, a Susan Graver, and someone else who’s name escapes me because I’ve not heard of him who must be a foreign QVC designer. I know what you mean by too much work, but maybe Jennifer could dig through it and post it on Facebook since there’s a share link on the final voting pg.
The fourth designer is Gary Goben. I think he designs Denim and Co.? Louis, your gown is so lovely! Can we see other gowns you’ve created? I’d love that.
Louis, did you see my question below about the Etruscan bracelets? Wondering if they were reordered…hope so!
In thought I answered you???? I guess it didn’t post. They should have been but they weren’t. The budget wasn’t there to order them. A lot of good things don’t get reordered due to the budget.
Louis, it probably didn’t post–happens to me all the time! I was afraid you would say the bracelets would not be reordered… and it’s another lesson in buying it, before it disappears when it comes to Linea! Any chance that decision will be revisited?
Also, I wanted to let you know that I received the camo denim dress thinking I’d try it and see if it would work…Well, I ordered up a size to get a smidge more length and it hits at the top of my knee. Love the fabric & fit and it actually makes my knees look better! LOL So, it’s a keeper! With tanned legs in the summer and a pair of espadrilles, I’m all set! I also ordered the indigo denim dress in a petite & it works beautifully as a tunic. (Thank you for that suggestion!) Hope you do more in this fabric…it’s lovely. I’m enjoying my spring haul of Linea & look forward to your next show!
Dear Grace….the bracelets had all the requisites for being reordered. It’s a matter of do we want to use the money allotted to us for new or reorders. I always go for the new. I don’t even know if the Scythe necklace will be reordered and it did great!
Dear Louis,
I love your Whisper Knit Long Cardigan and
Whisper Knit Full Needle Tunic Tank and own them in many colors.
I was wondering if you would ever consider offering these designs in Gold Lurex and/or Silver Lurex?
They would be Fabulous for Holiday or look great with white pants for Spring/Summer.
Thank you so much for your time and your exquisite timeless designs.
I hadn’t but it’s a good idea.
I sure hope it can be a reality!
Thank you!
Great idea, Lisa Ann!! I’d definitely buy them both.
Thank you, Grace.
Dear Louis, I just received the Multi-shaped wood necklace it is lovely and I’m wearing it with a pink sweater today. I loved the idea from another Linea lady about a wood fish. Thank you for all you do for us.
Louis, any idea when the wood and silver pendant will appear?
They are scheduled for May selling, I know that they are at the Q…..it’s a matter of processing.
Thanks.
Dear Louis,
Happy to see the Etruscan necklace set posted…I already have the gold, copper & green patina and just ordered the silver. I foolishly only ordered the gold bracelet before it sold out & need the other colors…Was the bracelet reordered? Fingers crossed.
Louis- looking forward to your shows next week. I hate to bug- but where the
heck is the aqua nugget necklace? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks
Dear Diane….that’s an excellent question!!!!! It seems the boxes containing that one color were miss marked. It took quite a while for them to inform my company….so now my company is working on correcting this, but everything moves at a snails pace…..it’s very frustrating!
Louis- Thanks. I’m learning patience.
me too, but when these situation are out of my control I can only roll with it.
I have been patiently waiting for the aqua too! I think it’s dreamy. Louis, when I learned you that were in the military from a recent comment, I was going to suggest that maybe a reconissance mission was in order!
Nugget necklace/earrings J353997 is on 6 easy pays!
Louis please have pictures of the seed bead necklace. I have waited so long and I can’t make up my mind what color. I see some of your ladies have ordered all of the colors so I know they will sell out fast like last time. Sorry to put pressure on but I’m crazy worried I will miss out again.
Are there any photos of the new seed bead necklace colors?
coming soon
There are pictures of the red and maybe the black/topaz(?) with Louis’s pictures of the swing jacket in the archives of October 2017. And Jen wore the black during the last show with the black leisure top?
Thanks, very helpful. Saw both Red and Topaz(with Black) as well as the original, very edgy Black with Gunmetal and Gold. It might be my imagination or aging eyes but the Red seed beads look rather translucent…somewhat like the sublime Lime!
All the color beads are transparent
Louis, is the navy seed bead necklace accented with gold or silver? I purchased the topaz today as I missed buying former sold out colors and did not want to miss out this time around.
Hi! I live in West Palm Beach and my Uncle was visiting me this weekend
. We were talking about his time in the national guard and he mentioned meeting you on the plane going there and serving with you. His name is Joe Borrelli and you both had the same birthday he said.
WOW Carolyn, he has a great memory. That was about 46/47 years ago! but I do think I remember Joe. Fort Polk Louisiana was no picnic! Weren’t we in the same Company? Did he wear glasses??
Yes. I remember bringing him to the airport. You rode the plane together and were in the same company.
Hi Louis. Hope the evening finds you well! Was thinking this morning of other items that I would love so decided to share them . Wouldn’t you know one, is a new fish..in wood. Coincidentally,when I logged on saw new colors posted so I ordered copper and silver for different eye colors. These will be my 7th and 8th. Also ordered one each of seed beads…yay!!! So excited. Another request…crop length in the Linea leisure elastic waist pant. Thank you!! Love my Linea!!Pamela in the sunny south.
Seed bead necklace is posted.
Kathy, Thank you for your message, I just placed my order!
Me too! Thanks!
Dear Louis,
The first thing that I thought of when I saw you and Jennifer working together was that your Jac lead Jennifer to you to work as your Linea brand ambassador. She seemed a perfect match for the brand, classy and elegant. Jennifer does look terrific in your clothes. Of course, they are really beautiful garments. Louis, I am 100% positive your beloved Jac is with you all the time, guiding you. The love that you two have never ends. Your genuine devotion and appreciation for each other is very rare. I know you two will be together again someday celebrating. In the mean time. you are with us (what a gift for us) learning, growing and being guided by your beloved lady, Jac. You are greatly loved and appreciated by your ladies, Louis, not only for your enormous talent, but for your exceptionally, big and loving heart.
Thank you Mary. Your words mean a great deal to me. I was never a very religious person. I wasn’t brought up that way. So I need to be reassured that Jac and i will be together gain. It’s the most important thing to me……You can’t imagine how much I miss her sweet face and beautiful voice. She was my everything, and always showed me the way.
Louis, I guarantee you will see your Jac again. I am very sure she is guiding you… I have good reason to be certain but that’s another story for another time. Hang in there. You are a prince and an elegant designer. I am trying on your beautiful button down shirts right now!!! No-one cuts a button down like you. My only frustration is that I am petite and thin and QVC sizes run a bit large (xxs is more like brick and mortar s) so I often need to belt or tie the shirts to make the look work. My sister, on the other hand, does not need to do this. Her closet is full of Linea just as it was full of Anne Klein when you were the head of design. You are one of a kind, a truly talented, classy, good hearted human. Take care and don’t give up.
Good Morning,
I’m wondering if the pale blue peasant shirt will go with the navy floral boho skirt which was posted on the Q without a picture. What are the colors of the flowers in the skirt? I have the pale blue and white shirts on the way to me and the navy floral skirt is a nice surprise!
Louis,
Ditto Diamondscribe’s comments about A302557 the moss crepe v neck top. I too would love short, sleeves in this top. Easy like a tee but dressier. I would buy more of the existing tops but brown, ginger and bay leaf are not flattering colors on me and may be why more have not sold. This is one of my favorite tops.
Donna from California
I wore one of my A273872 moss crepe short sleeve button front tops yesterday. This is perfectly what you need, but alas, they are on clearance and in limited sizes. I have navy and sage. It also came in cinnamon.
Hi Louis
I am interested in the tunic and pants with the chiffon on the bottom of each in dusk, white, and black. I like monochromatic dressing. I think these outfits will be wonderful for traveling as you can dress them up or down. Do you think these items will be on your early in May show on QVC 1 so I can purchase.
Joanne, I really don’t know!? I will only know for sure when I received the scripts for the shows later in the week.
FYI – The Floral Boho Skirt is Posted in two new colours – Port – and Navy – A287620.
Thank you sooo much. I have been waiting for this one!!!
Heads up! QVC has posted the reorder of the Etruscan bead set-green patina is included! I missed out the first go round. Now, waiting for the bracelets.
Thank you for the alert! I missed those the first time – cannot wait for them to get here!
FYI – I did not post this please check the name in the ‘Leave a Reply’ area – it now says Marta G on my iPad I have had to change it to my name Seka.
Seka.
I’m thrilled! I was lucky to get the patina when one popped up a few months ago. I have been so looking forward to getting the gold. Should be coming my way soon now! Thank you for the heads up😊
Louis, I’m crazy about this season’s ponte crop pants (petites). I have 2 pair in each color and plan to pick up more next month. I love the linen color in particular. It has proven to be so versatile. I would like to plead to the buyer via you for this color to be offered in the super ponte slim leg pant for Fall/Winter.
Another of my recent faves is the moss crepe swing top. I don’t understand why that hasn’t been a sell-out. Maybe it just had the bad luck to schedule in at the same time as a lot of drama pieces. This is such an essential. I would love to see something like this v-neck in short sleeves – same wonderful crepe moss. A version with shorter sleeves would make it perfect for us southern Linea Ladies. I love my Linea clothes. They make life so easy. Today I have work and meetings from dawn to dusk…and from there to a memorial service this evening followed by dinner out. So, I simply threw on my black moss crepe v-neck swing top and ponte pants and will just change accessories through the day. Thanks!
Hello Louis,
A few years ago I purchased two denim pantsuits from you–one in black denim and one in white denim. The jackets have the peplum feature in the back, which I know is very “in” now. I wore the black one the other day, and it is still beautiful. I was wondering how you would style these outfits today. Was even thinking about having the pant legs made narrower and not quite so flared. I would love to have your thoughts if you have time–however, I know you are so very busy with all of the beautiful designs you have coming. So thankful you have Jennifer to assist you in the details! Happy Spring; we finally had a sunny day in Seattle!
Barbara C.
Dear Barbara…..Since i no longer have those samples, it’s hard for me to comment about the pant leg since both slim and flared are bot “in”. It’s what you are most comfortable.I would say since they are in black and white, styling them is limitless. Tee shirts, classic shirts, prints ruffle front, like cascading ruffles, would ALL work and change the look entirely. Jewelry and scarves can give you a more casual or dressed up look. When in doubt, a black or white tank under either color suit always looks great. That way you can really accessories to your hearts content…..What do I always say!!!
PLAY, PLAY, PLAY!
Dear Louis,
We had a beautiful, sunny day here in Massachusetts. I hope your day was as lovely in Connecticut. My hellebores are blooming so I know the other plants will be following soon.
I keep thinking about your A304735 V neck tunic with georgette border but I can’t remember if you have told us when it is to be presented. I’m wondering if you can bring me up to date on that top.
Always wishing you the best, Ruth
Dear Ruth, I honestly don’t know, but I will let everyone know when I know
Dear Louis and Jen,
I have been wearing the Indigo drawstring dress all day and I am in LOVE!! I do not look good in Camo and am on waitlist for another indigo.
I do hope that this will be a repeat fabric. I would love this in a black denim!
This fabric is so very nice, soft and comfortable. I have not washed it yet, but hopefully, it will stay this way.
I noticed that the A304750 maxi dresses have a scoop neckline and the tunics with the chiffon on the bottom have a v neck. Would one, ie. in the Ivory, be suitable to wear over the maxi dress for coverage? Or, would it be too heavy and too many layers? I don’t wear sleeveless, for work, and do have a cardigan I could wear, but was wondering about the combinations of the fabrics. Then, the scoop would show above the V neck.
What would your opinion be about this? There are no pockets in the maxi dress, is that correct? That would be another plus to me.
Which of the new items is the Big Deal?
thanks for patiently answering so many questions Louis and Jen.
Debra
Hi Louis,
Would the WING COLLAR SHIRT with EMBROIDERY, A304745 in the camo color work with the
dark sand crepe pant? I LOVE the look of this shirt. (In every color.)
Yes Donna, they blend nicely.
Oh Great Thank you so much Louis. We are finally getting some good weather and I’m getting excited about buying some new Spring/Summer cloths. The count down has begun yay 😊
Do you know when in May you will be having your Big Deal of the Day?
May 2nd at 9:00pm….that’s the plan. They usually don’t change or fool around with the Big Deal schedules!
Hi Louis and Jennifer! First, welcome Jennifer! Really enjoyed your first shows!Just wanted you both to know that I and my husband went to Charleston, SC this weekend for the Southeastern Regional meeting of the Ferrari Club of America! I was truly a model for Linea/ QVC! I wore the sangria and copper crepe gauze outfits and the Mardi Gras necklace and the new chocolate necklace set and the black blazer with the matching pants. I wore the black seed bead necklace with this. Received so many compliments and was asked what designer and where? Of course my answer was Louis Dell Olio and QVC! My husband thought I looked fabulous and now I am waiting for more Linea pkgs!! Thanks Louis and QVC ! Never heard back abt when the stream crops may come so I will just keep warching!😊
First, thank you for being such a great spokesperson for me and Linea! Sorry I didn’t get back to you! If i don’t answer the questions right away they seem to slip away from me…..so never hesitate to ask me again!!!! They are due next month, but with the Q you never know. So many items that were supposed to be for April were never shown or posted. When all of these new things FINALLY GET SHOWN it’s going to be a BONANZA!
Thanks so much Louis! I figured as much! If you want to see photos of the outfits you can go to my Facebook page! Have a great week!
Pat!
What is the name on your face book page?
Louis, my Facebook page name is Pat Harris Jones.The Ferrari we took on this trip was the Grigio Titanio, 360. I love the picture of myself and my husband with this one. Notice I am all in Linea. We love all things Italian!
Hi Louis,
I hope that you are doing well. Thank you for being an inspiration to me on how to move forward in life with grace and courage after a loss.
Your strength is a wonderful example to others.
Any idea when item # A265615 Pull On Slim Ankle Pants will be available again?
They are my absolute favorite and “go to” pants and I’d love to be able to order them in other colors. I have them in black and they are SO comfortable and fit like a glove! Thank you for keeping us ladies looking our best! Much love, Angela
Dear Angela I thank you for your words, but I don’t know how deserving they are. If I seem courageous, I can only say each day is a struggle. My only salvation is my work. That is the only think that keeps me from thinking of Jac, and even that doesn’t always do it. I always ask her questions when I’m designing, and hope that some divine guidance will help me. I pray that she is always with me if only in my memories…On beautiful sunny , clear cool days like this one, on the water, I can only think of how much she would love this. It was her favorite kind of day…..It’s very bittersweet for me…….As for the pant, so far it hasn’t been reordered, but it may be for next spring? I know there are sizes in navy and Dk. chocolate which are two good basic colors that will go with a lot of what I’m doing.
Dear Louis,
I am in LOVE with the new denim dress!!!
The details are great, loving the pockets and the fabric is so soft and amazing to touch and against the skin.
My size Small is already on waitlist in this dress, so could not get a second one. The camo is absolutely not my color, but this dress and fabric are amazing. Will you have other items made in this fabric? The pockets are in the right place on the regular, I am not sure how they would work in the petite size. The length in the regular is great on me.
So happy with this purchase and I have already left my review.
I am so glad that Jac sent you Jennifer so you have a smiling face ready to help and expand the Linea presence on Social media.
Also, thank you for any sneak peeks you share with us. The new seed bead necklace in blush and silver looks beautiful.
Are there any other dresses or skirts coming or not until Fall?
Keep the smile on your face and don’t be afraid to laugh when you can.
Thinking of you,
Debra
Hi Louis,
I watched your shows and thought I heard you say there are more colors coming later in the season in the boho skirt or was it the ombré shirt?
Thank you,
Bernadette
That was the ombré tunic
Wow it has been a long time since I came on here but after watching Louis’s shows I had to come and say Job well done Louis. I may not hang out like I used to but I still watch your shows and buy your designs. Loving my India necklace and get lots of compliments on it as well as my other purchases. I quit visiting due to illnesses on both sides of my family. My and my husbands mothers were both diagnosed with dementia within weeks of each other. My mom is in Louisiana and Ron’s mom in Montana, We have been running ourselves ragged but things are better now. I have kept up. You are looking good and keeping us looking good. Thank you for that. I just wanted to stick my head in the door and say hello ad thank you again.
Dear Amanda. please don’t be a stranger! I know only too well what being a care giver is like. It’s exhausting to the point you have no energy to lift you head from the pillow. Make sure you and your husband take good care off yourselves. You can’t be much help to others if you don’t care for yourselves first. I hope things ease up a little for both of you so you can have some of your life back.
Thank you Louis, we have been through all the stages and emotions and struggles. We just want some normalcy back. I will never take an “average day” for granted again.
Dear Amanda, I understand only too well. So often Jac would look at me and say, “I only want to feel normal again”. Thinking of her saying that breaks my heart. Even when she was feeling her best during that year the medication was working, she was never herself before the cancer. The side effects were always there, She would call it her “new normal”. Take care of yourselves! We never know what’s just around the corner.
Louis,
Great seeing you this week. I am anxiously awaiting my packages!!
I wanted to follow-up on my post last month regarding my favorite necklace, J296893-the two row, metallic graduated bead necklace. Based on the dates of QVC reviews, I probably purchased mine in 2015. It had discolored and I was leery of cleaning it myself. I sent it to your manufacturer last month and asked for a repair or cleaning and have just received it back. It looks brand new! I am so pleased. Thank-you for providing this service to us. I have a large Linea jewelry collection so it’s reassuring to know your manufacturer will help out when there’s a problem with our favorites.
We’re having a beautiful morning here in CT and I’m hoping you have the same by the water. Keeping my fingers crossed that we have sunny weather for the next few days-we certainly deserve it. Hope you get some rest this week-end. Take care.
Dear Mary, I remember well you asking about the necklace, and i wasn’t sure, due to the special finish of the beads, that they could help. I’m so happy to here all came out well. It is a beautiful day here on the water. It’s very quiet today, and I see only one lonely sail boat on the water. In a few weeks that will all change. It’s still cold enough to light the fireplace. The wood is stacked and it’s already to be lit.
Isn’t it nice when something or someone exceeds your expectations? If you told me they replaced the necklace, I would believe you. Today, in honor of Barbara Bush, I wore my pearls and I remember how much I like wearing them casually. Linea pants, Kate shirt and jean jacket completed my outfit.
This morning, I turned our heat on for a brief time to warm the house. By this afternoon, with the warm sunshine, it’s plenty warm here. I’m a little north of New Haven and get the shore weather effects so I would guess that our temps are pretty similar. We were in Mystic today and noticed the same-very few boats in the water. I’m sure by our next visit there, things will be very different. Lovely town to visit.
Have a good day tomorrow-the forecast looks yummy! Best regards.
Louis
I ordered the Camo denim dress. I can hardly wait to get it and it should be soon ,as it has shipped according to the status on my account.
I ordered the regular length, I’m 5’6″. I think it will be okay. I want to wear it as a dress and with the Linea black leggings. I’ll put my wood bead and leaf necklace and earrings with it(after seeing Kate!)
I was wondering about the pink Carnival necklace. Is it coming soon? I ordered the pink stripe shirt with the pretty sleeves .
It should be here for my Big Deal in May, but one never knows. They have it!
Dear Louis, I know the seed cuffs will be here next month, did I see Maria wearing what looked like a Navy/Silver seed cuff. Please say YES! I remember you said they were coming in red ,amber, pink and another color. Also what colors will the rolling bracelets come in? Thanks.
Dear Tylerpoo….it’s not navy, more like a sapphire/cobalt blue and silver seed beads with the bars in gold…….The roller bracelet will come in gold, silver, gunmetal and shiny black. The fit on these is interesting, because they fit all of the models, even Maria who would normally wear a large and Chantal. Even though Chantal is thin, she has a broad palm and finds certain bracelets hard to get past it…..not these. You just roll them on instead of PUSHING.
Thanks Louis, looking forward to the shiny black in the roller bracelet.
Hi Jennifer,
I just saw part of the Linea show with Amy and heard you are from Texas. What part?
Louis… you are definitely in good hands with a fellow Texan!!!
Hugs,
Bernadette
Hello Bernadette and fellow Texan! Yes, I was born and raised in Texas. Born in Garland and grew up in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. 🙂 Where are you from in Texas?
Hi Jennifer,
I was raised in Spring but also have lived in the Dallas area. Glad to have you with us! 😃😃😃
Talk with you soon,
Bernadette
Hello Linea Ladies!!!
If you are on Facebook—I hope you will join us there, too! Here is a link: https://www.facebook.com/HerLineaStyle/
Love & Linea,
Jennifer Reed
Clothing looked classy and beautiful!, – was that a sneak peek at another new bracelet this week, love more info, Thanks
There are actually two coming next month….the seed bead cuff and the metal roller bracelet.
Hi Louis,
The shows were great. Always enjoy watching if even I own an item or it isn’t my taste. Your little style tidbits are so helpful. Jen did a great job with Amy and the girls.
I had asked about wearing the denim dress as a tunic because I wasn’t sure about the length. I ordered it when it was posted and was able to read the exact measurements. I went with the regular length and ordered a small due to the stretch and your comment about the sizing and bagginess.
Usually I have to wait for my packages to be delivered from the PO but UPS was delivering something from another retailer today and they also delivered my denim dress. I’m really happy to report that it is wonderful. I always worry about the sizing but I made the right choice. I think that if I had gone with the petite I would have been disappointed.
Quick question. When is the original beach glass necklace going to be available?. Hoping it will be here before June.
The original beach glass necklace is due doe June selling.
Hi Louis! I am a brand new fan of you and your fashions! I am a QVC watcher and just saw yesterday and day before I think, your shows on QVC. I am so impressed with everything I saw! I want one of everything! Love the classy look and how you put pieces together for such awesomely beautiful outfits! And your jewelry adds so much! I am in love with the fish necklace as I am a Pieces so I am always drawn to fish motifs! I am ordering one in the copper. I had ordered a snap front hoodie from QVC from your line and I just love it. That is the only thing I have at present, but like I said, I want one of everything you do! I had never caught one of your shows with you presenting your lovely items before and I think you are so talented and gifted. Loved how you showed your sketches too! Please don’t ever leave QVC!
Welcome to the Linea Ladies, Debbie!!

Jennifer Reed
You are a great addition to the Linea team. It was fun for all of us watching you; you have melded seamlessly into the group. All of the shows were so great. I’m looking forward to the April shows.
Thank you so much, GA Peach! Do you live in Georgia now? I used to work for WKLS/Atlanta.
–Jennifer
Hi Louis,
I just had to write and tell you about something I saw this evening. Here in Houston, since Mrs. Bush past away we had had a ton of coverage on her life. They just flashed a picture of her and she was wearing Anne Klein earrings. They were the set with the lion head wiith a brass ring attached to the lions mouth. Did you design those??? 😀😀😀
I didn’t get to see your afternoon show but I do have it taped and will be watching shortly.
Have a terrific evening!
Hugs,
Bernadette
They may have or may not have been AK earring since we couldn’t register a lions head. I didn’t really design the lion signature jewelry. I had the manufacturer come up with designs and I would approve them, looks at the castings and continue the process until they came to fruition. There were hundreds and hundreds of variations, but no I did not design them.
Louis, I am pretty sure they were the Kenneth Jay Lane lion head ones. She, always, wore his pearls as well. oxoxox
Hi Louis,
Jennifer is charming and very likable. She seemed very comfortable in front of the camera – which is not always easy. Great shows!! Question: What color leggings/crops would you pair with the denim dress both for the indigo and camo?
Thanks,
Donna from California
Dk.Navy and white crops and /or leggings for the indigo, and brown or dk. olive for the camo. It would also depend on the shoe and what colors are avail in the crops and leggings
I have to hide all my packages when they come. I’m in big trouble. Lol. Wonderful shows! Thank you for all you do for us Louis!
I know the feeling, Jen!!
Love & Linea,
Jennifer Reed
I have to say Jennifer I love your name because I’m Jennifer too and my son’s name is spelled Reid. I thought you did a wonderful job!
Thank you, Jennifer! And, many people also call me “Jen”! Today we were on with QVC Host Jennifer Coffey—so LOTS of Jennifer’s to go around!! And, what an amazing coincidence about your son’s name, too!
Louis, I saw the tease of the BEAUTIFUL crop pant with the organza hem detail shown on 4/19 show. WHAT day in May will this be available on QVC, please? I want to get every color!
Louis, so few designers CARE about the quality of product as you do! Your name on any fashion item says it all. Thank you for your attention to detail and construction. Thank you for your kind response to my question.
Sarah, I wish I knew. I won’t know until I get the scripts for the shows.
Thank you for replying. I hope you’ll give us a heads-up when you get the scripts, Louis.
Thank you for your kind reply. I am so very looking forward to the pant. If possible, please give us a heads up when the script arrives!
Do you still have your Scottie dogs, you posted a Christmas card a few years ago and it was the cutest card ever. I am owned by a Scottie myself. You had three Scottie’s and yours must have been well behaved, I can only imagine what living was like with three of them, as I had
two at one time, now I only have one and she runs runs the whole household.
I’m so sorry you lost lost Jacque, and I hope you still have at least one little Scottie to greet you when come home from work.
Sincerely,
Joyce Radmore
Can you reply on this website, I have a new iPad and my email is iffy at best.
Dear Joyce….Jac and i have always had Scotties, and sometimes a Westie thrown in for color…..LOL. My three girls are with me Anabel [Annie], is the oldest and Jac’s baby. Jac really spoiled her. She is a true Diva and Jac would get on the kitchen floor and hand feed her!!! It’s funny she now just eats by herself because she knows Jac isn’t here to feed her. Lilibet [Lili], is our middle child, and what a middle child personality. She’s very quirky, and jumps at any loud sound. Samantha {Sam or Sammy], is our baby, and I must confess a Daddy’s girl. When we decided to get a third I told the breeder I wanted one with a lively personality, and she had to be PURE BLACK. Our other two are Brindles. Well when we picked her up the breeder said she was a hellion. We laughed, and thought how could a puppy be a hellion…..breeders know. She is smart as a whip, and an escape artist. Not that she wants to run away….she just loves the challenge! She is feisty but such a sweetie…..a Daddy’s girl!Annie is 10 and having kidney problems and I have to give her intravenous fluids every day so I don’t like to be away to long. I know Jac is watching over her until they are together. Lili and Sam are both 8. They have the same Daddy, but different Mommies Lili was born at the beginning of the year and Sammy was a Christmas baby. They are always happy when Daddy comes home, and I can’t wait to get home and see them and hug them. My emotions are always right there…..It really doesn’t take much.
Dear Louis, your shows were terrific especially this afternoon. You looked so handsome and dashing today. I ordered the wood necklace and I’m wondering if you will be having some wood braclets?
Dear Kathy, no wood bracelets. They aren’t big on bangles at QVC. I guess history hasn’t been good. Fit problems, and minimums on wood bangles are huge. There are lots out in the market place. At least here in NYC. Go on ebay and type in wood bracelets.I’m sure a ton will come up.
Not sure if you have time for a quick question but in case you do, how does the peasant shirt run? I usually take XXS but sometimes need an XS. Thanks!
Hi Melissa— I also wear an XXS and just tried it on and it fit beautifully! However, I should point out that this is one of those styles that you could size up to XS if you wanted a little longer shirt tail and more blousey effect.
Love & Linea,
Jennifer Reed
Thank you Jennifer! I was able to watch some of Louis’s shows this evening that I recorded. You did a great job. 😊
I just wanted to say how delightful Jennifer is. I found myself wanting to purchase items I already own! She is a great representative of the brand and seemed like she was very comfortable. Most of all it is comforting to know you have help now, Louis. Can’t wait for the show later today.
Awwwwww!!!! Thank you so very much, Joyce!!! 🙂
Love & Linea,

Louis, do you know when the Inca necklace will be available? I just ordered the boho skirt in black and will be ordering more, I just have to make up my mind as to what I want. I always love it when you are on. I thought Jennifer did great and is a lovely addition.
Louis I saw that you responded to me but the reply went to my email instead of on here.
Louis, Do you have a scheduled presentation date/time for the Boho Skirt in the New Colours – Dusty Lilac – Caneel Blue and Khaki?

Really enjoyed Jennifer’s debut last night. She really wears Linea well. I hope she felt as good as she looked. So glad you found another gem for your Linea bevy of beauties.

Thank you so much for the kind words, Carol! YOU are the gem! 🙂

P.S. I was nervous, but Louis is so fabulous to work with!!
So glad you mentioned that we could order the denim dress in a petite and wear it over leggings. I love the camo color but my legs are pasty white and that would’ve never worked at 5‘10“. I enjoy all your shows and the way things are styled. It helps me to take the current clothes I have and update them with even more of your beautiful clothing. .
Great show! Jennifer looked elegant in your clothing and was so very articulate.
Thank you so much, Stephanie!

Good morning Louis and Jennifer,
It was a great debut performance Jennifer…..Congratulations.
Louis, it was so good to see you smiling!
Great show, Elaine
Thank you so much, Elaine!!

Hi Louis, I was frustrated to miss much of your show last night because my ipad buffered and churned most of the time. I enjoyed what I did see though. Today I looked at the individual video clips that have been posted. You were relaxed and entertaining. And Jennifer did a great job! I look forward to seeing more of both of you at 2:00PM today. All the best to you both, Ruth
Mine did the same thing! I thought it was just me. Guess I shouldn’t give up on trying that for when I’m out of town.
Thank you, Ruth!!
Love & Linea,
Jennifer
I just wrote a book praising you for the show a few hours ago and praising Jennifer. But my words got lost here on my iPhone. So I’ll say I like Jennifer, she’s kind and speaks of the clothes the way you do… a pleasant manner. You looked great and I’m relieved you’re feeling so much better. I live all the techniques you talk about. On the neckline what is the more complicated method of reinforcing the seams around the head opening? I’m losing my hearing! I like these special techniques .
I’m a lively (at times) 73 and seeing you makes me happy. I’m lucky to get QVC 2 on my tv, Comcast doesn’t have it, but I believe they broadcast it live stream on the QVC website.
Thinking of you and Jac.
Elizabeth Gabber. Salinas California.
2 more shows!!!
Thank you, Elizabeth!! And, you are so right about Louis always having the best advice and technique on how to wear the clothes! I am constantly learning something from him!
Love & Linea,
Jennifer
Great show! Jennifer is lovely! A true compliment to you in every way. She looks lovely in your clothes as well. I agree with you, it will be a great fit! Purchased the topper, the top to match and the bell sleeve top in Black. I am like you, my favorite color. The denim dress in Camo. Looking forward to Tuesday’s show! oxoxox Cat
Thank you, Cat!! 🙂 You are going to love the topper and camo dress!
Love & Linea,
Jennifer
What a wonderful, happy, human show! You seem involved and humorous. You look great and were relaxed. I’m so happy for you. I bought the copper topper to really pull a lot of outfits together. I have the chocolate petal necklace already. Jennifer did really well and is a great addition to give you”free” time. Cheers!
Louise not make no no skirt in petite?
Not for Spring /Summer. I will have a WK skirt for fall in petite and reg.
