The “Sneak Peek Textured Blazer” is style A227574. The colors are…….. MUSHROOM…..or……..BLACK…….The specifics….This is a single button blazer and it is fully LINED. There are no buttons or opening on the sleeve, so if you need to shorten…..it is an easy alteration. There are flaps with bison pockets underneath the flaps……they will come sewn shut, so if you wish to open them you can, however, if you do not plan on using the pockets it is best to leave them closed. I would call the jacket shaped, but not overly fitted. If you wish to have this jacket more fitted there are many seams to take the jacket in. You should first consider how you intend to wear it and how you plan on layering it. The length of the jacket for size XS is approx. 26 inches. The TEXTURED FABRIC is a blend of POLY/ACRYLIC/WOOL and RAYON. It is very common for textured and tweed fabrics to have multi yarns.

The BLACK combination has GREY, BLACK and a GREYED WHITE woven together in a BROKEN PLAID pattern. I thought this pattern was very UNIQUE and very DESIGNER  looking. This is the kind of fabric I have always gravitated to, and could only find in Italy. The MUSHROOM  blazer is a combination of MUSHROOM, DARK MUSHROOM and WALNUT, which is a very dark and deep brown…..one of my new ESSENTIAL colors! There will be new WHISPER KNIT  essential sweaters and the WHISPER KNIT pant [coming in Sept.]…. all in the new WALNUT. You should also know the fabric of this blazer has a nice touch to the hand….something you can’t tell from a photograph. I would say the colors of the jackets show up most accurately in the photos along the bottom of the collage. You can also see from the photos that the FEATHER PRINT was designed to work perfectly with the plaid jackets…again…very designer boutique. In another photo you can see how easily the CHILI PEPPER shirt/jacket works as a layering piece under the black blazer combined with the black feather print. There are three pictures of pleated skirts….the black feather print and the DARK MUSHROOM and BLACK light weight crepe skirts. As I said before…..PLEATED SKIRTS have made a STRONG return this year…..you knew it was bound to happen!!!You will see pleated skirts at all lengths this fall season…….. from MINIS [for the junior market] to MAXIS and all lengths in between………I can never show a collection without a GREAT WHITE SHIRT LOOK……this is pure LINEA pure ME. Of course, for me,  the CHICEST way to look is wearing a great fitting BLAZER, a terrific pair of PANTS, [in this case the new Whisper Knit pull-on pant in black which will be coming in Sept.] and a GREAT WHITE SHIRT…….the KATE SHIRT…..This is TIMELESS, CLASSIC and reeks CLASS! You can’t ever go wrong with this quintessential AMERICAN LOOK! I hope you enjoy the new TEXTURED PLAID jacket that I will be bringing to you on August 6th at 4pm…….much Love, Louis

8/3….6:00am, the A221794, paisley border skirt in Olive, Chili Pepper and Straw
8/3….4:00pm, The A227580, the feather skirt and the A227579, Feather print blouse.

Let’s see how many more changes they can come up with…LOL

The “July 30th PM Style Feather Print blouse” is style A227579. The colors are MUSHROOM and BLACK. It is a georgette blouse with long sleeves. There is a yoke, front and back, with shirring to give it a very feminine look, and the sleeve cap also has a little shirring. It is a button front blouse, and there are side slits so it looks terrific worn out. The fun part, besides the incredibly gorgeous print, are the STREAMERS down the front that tie into a SOFT BOW. There are TWO streamers on either side of the “V” neckline, so when they are tied you have FOUR LOOPS. To say that the print is FINELY printed would be an understatement……..it is simply SUPERBLY done. All of the other garments shown in the photos will be on the Aug. 6th 4pm show…..except….the WALNUT WHISPER KNIT PULL-ON PANT, which will be on the Sept 6th show….no questions please….I will give you all the info at the appropriate time…promise!…………For now…..enjoy this beautiful blouse!………much Love, Louis

“The 7/30, PM Style Sneak Peek” above is A227580, the georgette feather print pleated skirt. The colors are MUSHROOM and BLACK. The mushroom has many shades of brown, taupe, mushroom, gray and a little CARAMEL. The black has many shades of gray, black of course and a color I call HENNA, but for you, it is chili pepper. It is approx. 28 inches long, and is a pull-on skirt with a full elastic waist band……. this time it ISN’T BIG!!!!in the waist so order your Boho size!!! The top of the skirt has a yoke so there is no extra bulk with pleats going into a waist band….but honestly….the fabric is light as a “feather”….pun intended. That IS the CHILI PEPPER shirt/jacket that will be on the July 31st show. The TWEED PLAID BLAZER!!!!! is new and will be on the August 6th, 4pm show….but more about it in another sneak peek. The LONG PULL WALNUT WHISPER KNIT SWEATER, shown above with the MUSHROOM feather print skirt ,will be on my SEPT show ….no questions please….we will get to it at the proper time…there is too much coming before it. The skirt is fully lined in georgette.For all of you who say you will NEVER wear a pleated skirt……..I will make a convert of you this season. Pleated skirts were all over the runways this passed season and have already been shown for next season. As I said they are “FEATHER WEIGHT’ and “easy breezy”..LOL…………enjoy, much Love, Louis

ATTENTION!!!!!!…….I will be the VERY FIRST SELL on the PM Style show….so if you tune in late you will miss me!!!!!

I consider the July show transition, but Aug 6th is true fall. You have not seen one sneak peek from this show, but I will start posting as soon as I get a minute…..I’m swamped with work trying to pull all of these shows and “outside hits” together.
I realize it is a lot of merchandise to look at between the July 30th PM Style show and the Aug. 6th shows, but scheduling is totally out of my control. All I can say now is….. I think what you will be seeing is some of the best things I have ever offered on QVC…..”Designer” all the way. I promise to start posting sneak peeks ASAP, …………………………………much Love to all…….. Louis
