……………..You all know I am inspired by foreign cultures…..The craftsmanship and artisanship these different people have created around the globe over the centuries is true and honest. The technique of “wood block” design is one of the oldest methods of printing…Today we can reproduce the look of real wood block printing through the artisanship of master screen makers. The PLACEMENT ENGINEERED print has the look of patchwork utilizing four different patterns including the paisley border, and a streak of Turquoise to separate them….This print and border is the type often seen in INDIA….The color above is a clear BLUE with accents of TURQUOISE and WHITE….The 94% RAYON and 6% SPANDEX tunic is approx. 29 inches long for the XXS. The sleeves are 3/4 length and also have the paisley border….The V-neck is piped in the print…..There are very generous side slits so you don’t have to hike the garment up to get your hands into your pant pockets…This jersey has a nice weight to it and doesn’t feel flimsy or clingy as others do. Of course when you take it out of the plastic bag there may be some static which often happens, but that can easily be taken care of…..Jac used to apply moisturizer to her legs to avoid any clinging…..a model’s trick………..The combination of the print, inspired by India, and the ELEPHANT PENDANT with TURQUOISE TABLETS, J488259, are truly perfectly paired together. The Elephant has decorative markings that can often be seen on Elephants during special ceremonies in India….Adding the TURQUOISE TABLET necklace and earring, J488255, isn’t necessary, but it looks so FABULOUS together….It’s also a fabulous separate necklace to be worn on its’ own or with other pieces you may have….like American Indian jewelry. The tablets are made from reconstituted Turquoise…..For those of you, like me, who have to take the extra step to make it even more wonderful….add the GLITTERATI TURQUOISE necklace, J482966! The glittering turquoise glass beads mixed with grey are just magnificent on the print and with the other jewelry pieces…..The style number is A379986…….I know you will enjoy this colorful top……………enjoy…………much Love……………………Louis
Hi Louis! I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoy your designs! I am short and round (5’1″ size 1x) and they flatter me and make me feel beautiful.No matter my weight I am always “round” – just how life goes ! One of my favorite things about the Q was getting the hear from the designers – I respect the changes your life is taking and pray for your peace but I’m so appreciative of your posting videos here and on FB (especially FB) because I still want to hear directly from you. I wore your clothes more frequently when I was working in an office setting and miss the more casual tank/capri knits from a couple of years ago – but I still love your jersey tops and get so many compliments – I love your designs are amazing and I hope you continue to share them with us for many years to come 🙂 ! (FYI I’m mid 40’s been wearing your clothes for 10+ years – professional – but think you are great for office and travel) Thank you Louis!
Louis, I saw your video this morning and immediately ordered two of the Moroccan brass ox necklaces. I want to wear both at once as you show on the model. Then, I found out the top is posted, so I quickly ordered the ebony. I can’t wait to wear that set! I like and look good in blue, so I also ordered the indigo (true blue). You’ve really brightened my day (week!). Thank you!
I absolutely love this color combination. It reminds me of my youth at the beach. This touches my heart. Thanks for the memories this brings to me.
The printing A-mazing on this top!!! The cutest v neck too. The necklaces are must haves .
This is absolutely right up my alley. Those beautiful tunics you presented a couple of years ago in the faux de chine ethnic style prints, and which are truly “light as a feather” serve me well in the summer, and are still favorites. This will be something to look forward to in these dark days.
I was disappointed the turquoise in the last print top you did sold out in my size. I got the pink and black. But this top will make up for it! Plan on getting the indigo and probably the ebony too. It depends what else you have up your sleeve. I love the elephant necklace with this top. And the turquoise glitterati is on my wish list. I already got the tan one to go with all of my lace tops. The turquoise one was my second choice.
Melissa….you can make your plan….there is nothing else coming this month. QVC posted things earlier than I thought they would, but all is posted for the month.
The Top is posted on Q!
