Dear Diane, Thank you so much for bringing such fun clothes that fit so well. I recently had a ball at my 40th high school reunion and wore your silk tie dye tunic in that gorgeous yellow and your nice, long white jeans and my spouse was all saying I was THE knockout. And that is so funny because I'm not a knockout at all, but your garments do that! You ARE my designer! Thanks again.

Please Please Diane make size 2 jeans. I see now that they say 2/4 - that doesn't fit a 2. I know because I've sent back several pairs now. If you aren't going to make a real size 2 then don't call them 2/4 when they are definitely a 4.

Diane, thanks for all the beautiful clothes for plus size women! I wear a 1x and have every denim jacket with bling and jeans (bling) that you have made. Im a travel agent and go all over the world. People stop me to see where I got my outfit!! Please Diane bring back more bling. That is one of the reasons I started wearing DG2 jeans and jackets. Im 51 and love being able to wear your designs. Again love the colors but need more BLING!!! Love ya Diane for knowing what real women love!

Diane, Many times I've called HSN in hopes they would let me speak with you on air. Instead,I'll blog in hopes you read this. MANY years ago(late 60's early 70's),I lived in L.A. & would 'hitch' rides to San Fran. We met one night backstage at a concert.(I want to say it was Filmore West,but it was SO long ago,& those days are 'fuzzy' now). I hand embroidered jeans as my art. You liked them so much we swapped! We laughed ourselves silly. I'm thrilled to see the huge success you've attained!

Please, could you do some more skirts? Your denim skirt with the fringe hem is my very favorite thing in my wardrobe. Of course, they are totally sold out. Hoping there will be some new additions in the near future. Thanks for making clothes that different body types can wear. And that little bit of stretch is fabulous.

Diane I love all your clothes but have the same problem getting white and gray in the petite 8. Customer service tells me that is always a problem with these two colors. Please more, more and more white and gray in petites. I'm certain you hear much of the same from many of your customers--so here's one more plea! A short while back I heard to say you were having surgery--I'm glad to see you are doing so well. Thank you for doing so much for us gals!

Diane every time you bring in a new collection I get so excited! This last visit I wanted one of everything it was all so cute. I got the zebra print bubble dress, the floral print tank top with sequins, the babydoll terry & the cropped leggings. Please bring in more of the cropped leggings. They sold out so fast I was unable to get more. You do a fantastic job Diane and I just wanted to say thank you for your creative & artistic mind! Love all the bright, cheerful colors too!

Loved your Jeans, I just received my last order of your skinny jeans that came in indigo and white only ordered in size 12. Last time I ordered size 10, they were too tight and I waited too long to return them and now I have a pair of brown jeans that don't fit. The first 2 pairs were a size 10 and 12. They both fit. What's going on with the sizing. I am very disappointed that they did not have the 10's, so now I am sending them back and getting nothing in return because of no stock.

Diane.... I absolutely love your denim items, BUT will you ever bring back your Signature Embellished Washable Silks. I continually get compliments when I wear mine and would love to have more. Thanks for making me look good.

Diane, I loved your trouser pants in talls last season. Please do more, they fit great and I would like to see some solid colors in chocolate brown, navy and of course black. I think they are well made and are great for work as well as evenings out. Please do more of your graphic t-shirts they are unique and the fabric is great. Thank you for your great collections.

Last year you had some great suits perfect for my office. I bought at least 5. Now I don't see anything like that in your collections. Will you be offering more soon?

Saw your boyfriend jeans and thought they were wonderful until I got them. The grey was so faded and worst of all they were too big (same problem with the last 3 different styles I've purchased and sent back. I wear a size 2 but now all the size 2's fit like 4's. Have you changed manufacturers? Doesn't your quality control check the sizes? Has your cutter changed the patterns? Why I'm so interested is because your jeans fit me to a T until now. Pls pls ck the size 2.

Diane I need help!!! I would love to try your jeans but all jeans come in the skinny ones. What happened to jeans for skinny people? All the jeans I buy and I buy plenty fit terrible on me. I end up giving them away. They make me look even thiner. Is there any way you could make jeans that aren't skinny jeans for people like me?

Diane, I love all your new things......but the sizing is different. I don't wear a size 12/14, I wear a straight 14 in your jeans and they fit great, I love your jeans !! I want your cropped sailor jeans and jacket.....I have no idea what to do, the 12/14 would be to small I think in the jeans and jacket....I wear a 14 or large in your jackets. Why are you changing your sizing like this..please go back to your other sizing. Staight 12, 14 etc. I don't want to have to pay to have this sent back !

Marilyn, PA 06/17/2009
Diane, I, too, am a new fan of your DG2 jeans! I no longer have to struggle to be comfortable in jeans that don't stretch or don't have a sexy, modern style. I'm a size 4-6 Petite 55 year old woman and am disappointed that it takes so long for your skinny jeans to come back in stock! No wait list is available either for my size. I was hoping for a skinny jean in both white and black for the summer. Any hopes of getting these back in stock in July?

Barbara 06/16/2009
Diane, I love your new things and want your sailer cropped jeans and jacket but I wear a size 14 with your stretch waist and I'm afraid these won't fit because they are sized 12/14 and they don't say stretch in waist. Please keep your things sized 12...14....16 etc. Even your jacket to match these pants is sized 12/14. I want this outfit so bad !!! Please put the sizing back like it was..:) Help !!!!
