What has happened to the Slinky Brand line of clothing?
I’ve inquired with HSN chat agents, twice, about Slinky and they tell me the line has not been discontinued; however, it’s been forever since there have been any new designs. I wish they would just be honest and let us loyal customers know what is going on. Has anyone heard anything? I would guess they have discontinued the line and Slinky will pop up on another TV shopping channel, eventually.

I read that after leaving HSN they converted their factories to make and sell.masks.

Without slinky there is almost nothing to buy. DG 2 is good for some things.But slinky for the price,innovations and sets were a winner. Susan Graver on qvc ( which now is partners with hsn)is double the amt and tripple and no sets. There is nothing like Slinky, My goodness I was super put together, and they had funky and older and cool and classics.Now all the clothing looks the same. Nina Leonard is old. looking style.and Iman is not slinky. Julianna does not fit right. Slink y was petite and narrow,slim and fitting Yet a 18 size would also look put together. They were the first with the soft knit,slinky,material, e tc , now they all have it. But no one has the styles,sets and fit.I am slowly wearing out her stuff. It is irreplacable.,They all copied it, and no one has her styling and fit. And price? it was a steal . On qvc SG is high quality but not my look.once in a while I find something COOL .she has her own following,and well worth it.But you could walk in with a slinky outfit of $50 and look $600.and on sale,I would buy it it for the pants.Well ,they are gone.Carolyn Strauss was a great fit,close to slinky,not as young looking, tianab,was awesome,the fit is timeless and they last.The tv stations are having clothing like everyone else.There are a couple good brands on qvc,and a couple good on hsn. But none are slinky. Always on trend and dirt cheap and excellent fit and life.

So sad to see that Slinky has gone. Price was affordable and her 2packs were the very very best. Thankfully I stocked up on all colors of many of her tops and tanks. SG on QVC, her neck lines are too high on all of her tops. IF I hear so and so wears xxxxxxx small one more time lol
SG prices are over the top for polyester. Lets be honest her .Liquid knit is old-fashioned polyester.Slinky at least allowed us women to show a little skin feeling feminine and pretty at a cost we could all afford..
VERY SAD—please come back slinky. FIND A WAY—we need you. -
Looks like Poshmark and Ebay have a selection of Slinky to choose from. I also have seen ads from Nordstrom.
I have more Slinky than I will ever wear – it is great stuff!
-
I am also sad that Slinky Brand is apparently gone from HSN. Their designs, fabrics and workmanship were of very good quality and their prices were so competitively available. I hope that whatever the reason, it will be agreeably resolved and they return to HSN.

I am just lost without Slinky Brand! I fell in-love with a lot of their clothes but mostly their slim summer pant. Bought doubles in most colors and need more.
How could they just leave or be gone. They were such a popular brand. Can someone at HSN PLEASE tell us if they are coming back or if they went to another home shopping station. If you can PLEASE bring them back!
-
You will never get an answer from HSN nor QVC for that matter. Every time I’ve inquired about a product/fashion/item which no longer appears I never get an answer. I’m sorry but I am just sick of seeing jeans! Jeans with holes in them, skinny jeans made for a 10 year old and I am so sick of the repetitive fashions from these designers. It’s about time they got some interesting designers with new and fresh ideas.

Kind of rude to leave without some sort of explanation to their loyal customers! Can’t imagine they are out of business as it was such a popular line!

I found limited slinky on a website called Chel’s Clothes Closet.
-
Chel’s Clothes Closet is an ebay seller- I think they have an Amazon store as well.

I have a closet full of slinky. If anyone hears where she will be available, please post so we can find her. My favorite designer.
-
I have found a brand of pants comparable to Slinky. It is made by JoStar and is available at
FashionShowBoutique.com It is 94% acetate and 6% Spandex. There are no pockets, just like Slinky. The waistband is a little wider and the pants legs a little longer than SLlnky–but it is almost the same thing!

I inquired today.Slinky is NOT coming back. Much too secretive. Must be a legal dispute or something. I will miss slinky.
-
I will also miss Slinky. Their fashions were on trend and very wearable. I really liked the 95 poly/5 spandex fabric. It was easy care and great for traveling. The brand fit well. I always thought Slinky provided value. I especially liked the 2 packs of pants, tanks and 3 piece sets. I also liked that many of the clothes were made in the USA. Thanks Slinky for all the great fashions!! I think 3/4 of my closet is Slinky!! I hope that HSN will bring your brand back!

They did the same thing when HSN discontinued Carolyn Strauss and Liz Lange which were 2 of my favorites. I doubt Jackie will migrate to QVC because they have Susan Graver which is similar.
-
Susan Graver’s quality is a lot better in my opinion. I know that Slinky has many fans but with all due respect, I don’t think the brand would pass QVC’s standards. ShopHQ, may grab the brand.
-
When was the last time Susan Graver presented anything new? All the same, liquid, net, and nothing new or different. I’ve gone on different websites and gotten much better quality and a much better price. Susan Graver has a lot of nerve to charge those prices for in my mind. Anyway junk.It
-
Susan Graver may be a better quality but her price point compared to Slinky reflects that. I love Slinky and for the obvious reason…Price. I have Slinky items I’ve had as long as I’ve had my Susan Graver items and both are still of great quality.

Slinky Brand is being sold by Sears. Go to Sears store or website.
-
I like Susan Graver’s liquid knit line, too, but her prices are crazy high! She doesn’t do as many printed jackets either, which is what I miss the most from Slinky. Jackie always brought new seasonal prints for spring/summer and fall/winter with coordinating tanks. I do hope that Slinky clothes are available on some online platform in the near future.
HSN and QVC are all part of the same ownership group now, so it’s unlikely that she would move to QVC for that reason, too.

I heard one of the hosts say on a video clip months ago that Slinky was going and I’ve since ordered a good deal from clearance. I don’t understand the reluctance of the reps to give us information on what has or is happening unless there is some hope that things are still in flux. I find Slinky so easy to wear and especially love the skinny pants and tees. So many good deals now if you can find your size.
-
I found that Sears is selling the Slinky Brand. Go to Sears store or website.

It’s not Sears, they are 3rd party resellers thru Sears. Looks like old inventory, I recognize many items from their time on HSN. Plus you can tell it’s reselling because when you click on an item, they only have a single size or color. Almost feels like pallet sales.
