Diane Gilman’s “ghetto pants” comment
Why in the world did DG have to reference how after wearing jeans (from other designers all day ) they tend to sag like “ghetto pants.” First of all, why is the queen of jeans wearing anyone else’s . Aren’t yours the best? Secondly, she was referring to the way black males wear their pants – so low their underwear show. FYI , that’s a black male cultural thing n not the result of buying pants too big because they got the size wrong or because they lose their shape ! And had that been a white HSN host , would she have made that same comment? I doubt it? She picked the right one to say that to. Debbie D . Loud with her constant shucking & jiving . She either didn’t hear the comment or pretended she didn’t. These home shopping networks are taking a nose dive . And I see why.

I’m sorry, people should be held to account for the wrong they repeatedly say and do!
HSN only cares about making $ , thus the blind eye. What’s your excuse ? -
I am so happy that we are so perfect and self righteous. I’m sure nobody ever says cuss words or shares their opinion even though nobody cares. Give me a break.

Tween / teen and young men of all melanin let their pants slouch down far below their waists, not just one group or another. Ghetto is a broad and ugly term, unnecessary from anyone.

Diane Gilman has had the worst chemical smell in that atrocious fabric for years. The fact that everyone turns a blind eye concerning this health hazard is mind boggling. Her horrendous attire would never enter my home. Gasoline and bug spray that has got to be hazardous. Ishhh……

Yeah, as a vendor, she should be more professional. Sagging jeans are not only a black cultural thing, but they are also a Hispanic cultural thing. I think they look ridiculous.

Maybe this is why she has her male substitute on so much? He is pretty good but like all the others, does a hard selling job. DG has a rough or abrasive personality and I don’t like her clothing as the rear doesn’t fit me in her pants and I don’t wear polyester tops. I have been just wearing leggings lately. I have found the QVC Belle line of pants fits me well. I have an old pair of DG boot led jeans that I wear sometimes, they have polyester in them so get hot in this hot climate. I love the fit of the old pair of DG jeans but the last ones I purchased had to go back due to her changing how the rear fits. At one point, the designers were all doing a tight rear to enhance the body and it was just painful on me. Oh, and I have Iman heavy weight Ponte pants that fit great, too. But all from a few years ago. I think this complaint needs to be written in to the CEO. It is over the line. I didn’t see her saying this but she has such a big mouth, she says things in a weird or like she is our best friend kind of way. I bet it sells a ton of jeans though.

Wow! I did not hear those comments from her. Should I have, I would not have bought the one pair of her TS yesterday. I will return as soon as I get it. Those comments are totally not acceptable. This is ridiculous!!!
Darn! I did buy a pair 2 months ago and I cannot return it now that it has passed the 30days return policy. I would have returned that one too.
Her jeans are a hit or miss for me and her tops never fit me right, hence I seldomly buy her clothes in the past 6 years. Now, NEVER AGAIN -
Not surprise . She said something similar regarding Hoodies. Diane should be thankful she can sell her jeans on HSN at outrageous prices . Think I will stop buying her chemical smelling jeans even at clearance . HSN needs to speak with her about her racist statements . I am not a fan of baggy men pants ,but her repeated comments about items looking ghetto , speaks volumes in my world . The woman is rude to Host and acts like her jeans are the best in the world . SMH

I stopped buying her jeans awhile ago because they went into the trash. They stretch out after wearing an hour and it looks like you are wearing a load in your pants.
G by Giuliana makes the softest jeans with total recovery.
If you have a huge rear end ginormous than Dg 2 jeans are made for you because they won’t have a chance to stretch out because of the extra baggage.
I don’t like Skinny Girl either.
Only jeans for me are G by Giuliana she is the empress of jeans.
