Summer's officially over

Hope you had as fantastic (and exotic) a summer as I had!!

Traveling half-way around the world and back again I realized there is an “International Language of Fashion” – wherever you are in the world – Hong Kong (so exotic!!) Istanbul (absolutely fabulous!) Paris (but of course!!!) London (great shopping!!)…if you are wearing a great fitting JEAN and have something with “STATUS” along with it…well, you are “in” – understood, appreciated and admired!!!

That’s exactly what we bring for September – “Global Style”!!! The Perfect Fit of our DG2 bootcut jeans and the status of our Luxurious Fur Collar matching denim coat for the most fantastic Today’s Special ever!!!! The choice is yours…but together they make for the ultimate high-end look in Denim suiting!!! (And the faux-fur collar is detachable!!! So the Denim coat can be year-round dressing!) SO undeniably chic…but at the same time so practical!!

So start the Fall Season with the best Fashion Investment you’ll ever make…a perfect fitting pair of jeans…and complete the “look” with our Status fur-trimmed coat…

And always remember… “Trends come and go – but style is forever!!” We hope you can join us for our beautiful DG2 Fall Fashion Event starting 12:01 AM September 16th and continuing throughout the day!!!

Could you bring a boot with a stretch spandex upper? I have a high arch and a wide foot and suffer from chronic swelling so I can't get into most shoes or boots that are rigid. I currently live in thongs and need something less casual to wear. A boot with a spandex upper material, like your leggings but in reverse so to speak,like a sock with a sole. Thanks so much, you are the best. If anyone can do this, you can!!!

Diane, I am so disappointed I bought the DG2 denium duster with the matching jeans. The medium was too large,so I sent it back right away and ordered a small it is sold out! This is a new item I just cant believe that you don't have more product. Additionally, I fell in love with your pasiely (cant spell) tunic top and again by your chart I wear a medium, but when I received it was too big. So, I sent it back and again sold out! Now I only have half of an outfit,PLZ fill my orders. Thx

Please bring back the studded cross jeans in size 6 or 8 petite. It would be nice to have a matching jacket to them too. I love the embellished jacket and jean sets, please bring us more of them. Could you also design your embellished jeans so that you don't lose any of the design on the bottom if you have to shorten them. Thanks so much.

I finally gave in and tried your jeans (wearing Levis for 40 years) bought the special value boot and another pair found both to fit great(they said it was a different rise I wanted the lower)my only problem the petite to short the reg. too long if I shorten the long they look funny the boot doesnt look right. I need a 30 lenth I will wait for them hopefully that is coming. They are everything they or you claim they are absolutley loved the fit.

At 59 yrs old, I am thrilled with DG2 line. It took me only a couple of tries to find the right size in pants and tops. Have not tried shoes yet. I love ... love this line and think the quality is consistent. I think Diana is always ahead of the curve when it comes to style. You can be the first in line with the newest look in her clothing. If I had one complaint is that my size {10} sells out often before I can make my purchase for I am not always able to watch her every time.

I recently purchased three pair of your boot leg jeans - great, great fit - but am having trouble with the black pair bleeding on things. I laundered two times before wearing but was horrified to find the color came off on a cream couch (as well as my hands). I have now laundered another two times and they still bleed. What should I do? Anyone else having this problem?

I hope Diane brings back the velvet boot cut jeans. Each time I tried to get them my size sold out. Would LUV black, navy and choc. brown. I am a 4 or 6 average. The quality of the velvet is amazing and the stretch is perfect. No embellishments please, just good classy bootcut jeans.

For years I bought most of your clothing and I never thought twice about it because I thought your fashion sense was right and I could always count on the fit as well as the products being made from good fabric. Now I have pretty much stopped buying anything because (1) your designs are ulgy (2) the fit is inconsistent, and (3) fabrics are pretty much horrible. I do not understand what has happened to you????? Also, may I say, the stuff you wear on air is very unflattering to your body.

I was afraid to order from online but jumped in with your boot cut flared jeans (all three colors) and love them. I am over 60yrs and a country gal at heart so the bootcut suits me fine. The size is perfect. I have ordered many sweaters and tops from your collection also and again love them all. In all the orders I have from you only one is coming back. It is the Boot cut sparkle jeans in blue. The size just isn't right this time. The black pair is perfect but not the blue.

Are you bringing back your velvet jeans? I bought the black and brown last year. Would love to get the blue. And for future consideration gray would be fab. (You do great gray jeans anyway, in velvet it would be over the top.) I also have the gray and brown jeans with the big chunky same color cascading stones. I would love to get them in the wine color. Thanks Diane and Happy New Year.

Hi Diane! I love most everything you sell but I would love to see more flex pay options or free shipping or a little lower prices?? I am very petite and I do love your jeans however some not all of the petites are still too long! Would you ever do 27 Inch lengths in your jeans? I'm just barely 5 feet tall! Also would you ever consider making sleepwear? I consider myself to be a huge fan of yours! I would love to see a western belt with rhinestone or crystals on the buckle!! Love you girlfrie

Hi Diane! I just got the capri jeans with the cuff.I must tell you that I have 2 other pair of your jeans and they really fit me just right. I am a size 4 petite, but in your jeans, I am a 6. The capri's are very tight in the hips and the waist is too big. I have to keep pulling them up. They are very tight around the knee all the way down to the cuff. I got the chambray, I love them, but they do not do me any justice, and the sizing is off. sorry, must return

Please consider making boot-cut leggings. They are so difficult to find, but very flattering. I did purchase a pair from somewhere else, but one leg was shorter than the other, so back they went. I only wear DG2 jeans and jackets, and dusters. Even have your luggage.

I never bought jeans that i dont personally fit but i took a chance in ordering your boot cut red colored jeans because it was a rare color for a change. I am petite with an unproportioned big belly due to menopause weight gain. But when i tried them on, they are so comfortable and i think i will buying more in the future. You have gained a fan and a new customer. I hope it is also available in relax or classic fit.

I have 12 pairs & cotton/spandex wear soooo much longer than ramie/cotton/polyester/spandex. I know it's more expensive but give us the choice. Your styles are timeless. I want to wear all of my jeans 10yrs from now. Had to throw out 3 pair so far. Love you, keep us baby boomers looking good!

PGA 1 N.C. Please do some differnt colors of the Sunkissed narrow cuff crop jeans. Think about the colors of tangerine, lime, watermelon, and stawberry!!! I like the pastels the best. I have 10 pair of your jeans and these are my favorite. I have the blue and the raspberry. I tried for more later, but they were sold out of my size. All of your items fit me and it is because you give that extra inch in the bust and waist that keeps me from having to go to the next size.

I bought the short denim skirts and that adorable kilt-like skirt. Thank you SO much for keeping the skirt measurements close to that Sunkissed skirt,BTW. The duster goes over everything: your baby doll tunics, chunky sweaters & dresses! I get a good idea of how the fashions will look by watching you and the hosts present and wear them. Hugs...

I have to agree with the women who asked if you would let more realistic models wear your jeans. You keep saying they fit all sizes but YOUR models are ALWAYS very THIN. You say it ALL THE TIME THAT YOU MAKE YOUR JEANS FOR REAL WOMEN why don't you put the jeans on REAL WOMEN MODELS for a change. Let people see them on all body types, not too much to ask.

I say this to you, because, I believe that you, before anyone else, can see the relevance in what I say. If you can make the everyday person look good, think of the $

Can you please bring back the old sizing? If this red jacket will not fit I am sure I will send it back, but with the old sizing I never had to return any of your garments.
