Diamonique Design Of The Month

[donna255]

Ye gods, Ben, sweetie. You seem to have the strange idea with this collection we are all off to the Oscar red carpet.

Not items to wear just out to the pub or shopping.

Hefty prices for something not even set in silver

Oh, sorry, it is Paul, not Ben.

Holy crap, not even steel but brass!!!!

 

[Toril]

Sorry if this causes offence but I think they’re all ghastly. I don’t like huge stones because it’s usually obvious that they’re not genuine and I prefer not to make a statement when I’m out and about. The prices are also too high in my opinion for jewellery that is plated.

I wondered how they could sell larger pieces for the price. Can now understand why.
Stainless steel now brass, what next copper, aluminium, zinc? I wonder if they’ll actually say it’s silver tone/gold tone on brass during presentations.

I’ve noticed a few times lately that QVC have been using the Gemporia/Ideal world method of selling. Leaving out the material, sizing and saying you can get this home for £11.50 plus p&p, without stating this is the first of 5 easy pays. Guarantees/warranties hardly mentioned now on the higher priced stuff.

It was actually nice yesterday to have Julia Roberts doing fashion shows. All details and at times very politely overriding BAs regarding incorrect info. Oh for the old days when there was no BAs, garments were shown on models but also laid out on a table and were measured with a tape measure by the presenter.

Bring back the tape measure and cancel the BA's. BA's charge for their so-called fashion expertise. If they were eliminated the prices of the goods would go down. (Fat chance of that.) QVC know what they're doing, however. BA's like Glen and Jenny increase sales.

These are all ghastly. And I'm not buying brass. A new low, Paul Costelloe should stick to bags.

 

[Battiola73]

I think one of the rings is sterling silver, but not to my taste. I love his bags but his jewellery designs are not for me.

Agree, Julia is one of the few I can watch for the entire show! She gives sensible informed chat. I can put up with her going on about herself at times, she does the job well imo, unlike the vast majority .

Paul Costello has for years sold his clothes and bedding in Dunnes Stores, which is an Irish store selling food, clothes etc. So he is not a couture designer by any sense of the word.

Just to add, Dunnes own brand puffy coats are brilliant look just like M&S but only cost £25 or £30 compared to £99!
