“It’s That Time of Year”

It’s that time of year when you seriously start thinking about your LINEA BODY TIGHT and LEGGING wardrobes. This year I have added two new and VERY IMPORTANT colors to the Basic OPAQUE Tights collection, A260016……OLIVE….and…..TOBACCO…………..They match the OLIVE and TOBACCO Whisper Knits, and coordinate with all of the tobacco and olive color pieces in the collection…i.e. the Animal Jacquard Knit zip front jacket….the OLIVE Trench, and the TOBACCO Swing WK sweater as well as the Tobacco ZEBRA coat…. These fashion colors will be a one season only. Next year I will bring in new colors to coordinate with the new collection……so if you want them don’t wait. There are some asking if the Aubergine is coming back, but there is no plan to do so. Only the basic colors have returned. Give special attention to the HEATHER GREY, which look great with all of your Heather Grey WK sweaters and the new HG Ponte pants………Also returning is the legging, A260034, which I use ALL THE TIME in the shows. They are returning in the three base colors of Navy, Black and Walnut. Unfortunately, there aren’t any new colors due to a problem at the dying plant which could not be remedied in time for the delivery needed………The legging, which is a much thicker denier needs special dye baths and there were technical problems with the city’s new chlorinated water ratio which messed up all of the dying formulas….all very technical, and not your problem, but nothing is easy! …..Hopefully next year………There are TWO terrific buys this season………The PEEK-A-BOO tights, A260032 in Navy, now at a reduced price of $5.50. These are the tights with the lace stripe running up the back of the leg. The other terrific buy is the LUREX Opaque tights, A260037,  in SILVER/BLACK and GOLD/BLACK. The reduced price is $6.87. I love these worn day or night, and they look fabulous with the new Boot Cut Ponte Grey pant and a Skimmer Flat or an Open Toe Shoe Bootie. They are much more subtle then they sound. The quality is superb. Some Lurex tights have too much lurex, and the yarns used are not great quality making them scratchy. The amount of Lurex is just right, and it’s blended with a very silky yarn from France……They are pure designer…..There will be one new fabulous tight being introduced……hopefully in time for the show…….It is the TUXEDO TIGHT….This is an opaque tight with a STRETCH VELVET RIBBON UP EACH SIDE OF THE LEG….This is a very special and unique….again totally DESIGNER…..The colors are Gray with Black ribbon and Black with Black……They really elevate any look you put together……..Remember, ALL of the Linea Body Line is PRODUCED IN AMERICA………It’s always a good thing when we can support American companies and American workers…………………………enjoy……………much Love……………………..Louis

    Is the image of the tuxedo tights correct as shown on the Q? The stripe doesn’t go up the entire leg nor down to the bottom of the foot?

    1. louis dell'olio

      Yes Kate it’s correct, but when you are wearing a pump you can’t see where it ends and only if you are wearing a very short skirt….like the skort can you see the top…..but that has the garter high tights look which is very much happening….with a regular pencil you can’t see where it ends…….take a look at today’s videos, and you’ll see the end of the stripe is well covered.

        Thanks. Just double checking. I ordered two black and one grey!

    Dear Louis,
    I notice you have a new shirt offered on QVC – the Asymetrical Hem Button Front Shirt, It looks wonderful. Could you please advise me as to what size I should order.. The measurements offered make me think I should buy the Size 0 but I don’t see where that is available. My chest measures 37″. I have purchased the XS in your Wing Collar shirt and it fits like a custom made shirt. Thank you in advance for your attention to my question.
    Best regards,
    Ruth

      Dear Ruth….you should compare measurements between the two shirts. I’m not sure if you should get an xxs or an xs

      1. Ruth

        Thank you for your advice. The smallest size offered is a Size 2, so I guess I’ll get that. Your clothes are exquisite and I so appreciate you making them available on QVC.

    I don’t wear a lot of tights/hose, but like to have yours on hand for certain occasions. Love your lurex ones, have each color, thinking of getting backups. Also have the black all over lace and the navy peek-a-boos. Sadly, I missed out on the animal ones.

    Plan to order the tuxedo ones as well as the herringbone and pinstripe. Hope the tuxedo ones are available soon!

      Louis,

      Do the walnut herringbone tights go with the coffee bean skort?

    2. louis dell'olio

      YES….and I have shown them together….and Jac has worn them that way

      1. Melissa

        Great – thank you!

    3. louis dell'olio

      I have been told they will be avail by the 6am show…..let’s see if that happens!

    Love your tights, Louis. Count me in for the sheer tights if those ever come back. They were the best! Fortunately I bought two pairs of the seamless leggings in every color, so I can wait for next year to restock. I’m definitely getting both colors of the tuxedo tights!

    Any chance of a faux suede legging? I bought some from Hue last winter and love them! I think they are knit.
