Well, well, well, tignanello

Heard Carla say just after midnight that Tignanello comes from the same stable as B Makowsky and Kathy Van Zeeland.

Am very distressed to hear this. Was always under the impression that Tignanello was a brand in its own right.

Have never understood this Kathy Van Zeeland woman or her business philosophy. She doesn't like to use leathers for some ethical reasons - TOSH! Why set her own husband up then in a bag company which uses leathers? And now to hear that Tignanello is theirs too.

Why can't people just be straightforward?

Because they don't make as much money if they're straightforward.

 

[borednow]

if i remember rightly they were all different companies that have been bought by a chinese company and that is how Tig is now in the same stable as B. Maks and KvZ

 

[Gem Genie]

So is there an actual person called Kathy or is it just a brand name?

 

[borednow]

yep, live and kicking as is her husband bruce. if you are interested you can see them on QVC US product videos

Yes, as Borednow says real people. But they have sold out quite a while ago to a Chinese company who make and sell the handbags.

Read the QVC US community boads and its all about the loss of quality since the companies sold out to China. Many refuse to buy them now.
