“MISS TINA” CLOTHING LINE

Monday, August 20, 2007

misstinahsn.jpg

It is not a game with the Knowles family. The ladies have pulled another clothing line from under the threads and its coming from straight from Momma Tina…or “Miss Tina” that is.

Tina Knowles’ new clothing line debuted this past weekend on HSN (Home Shopping Network) and I was able to catch glimpses of it. I can say it actually looks pretty good and very stylish for her target audience:

Tina on her clothing line:

“I love the fact that the sizes go all the way up [2 to 24],” said Knowles in a statement. “There’s a forgotten woman who wants a pencil skirt, too, or a blouse that’s a little lower cut.

“Beyonce has backup singers who are full-figured women. Being a woman over 50, I try to think about the things I have going for me and the things I want to hide, like my arms. I’m giving them options with shrugs. I’ve been a stylist for so many years, I know how to accentuate the positive.”

“Accentuate the positive”…I like that…


Here are some looks from her line, that include shoes and accessories. The prices are pretty affordable as well, ranging from $69 jeans to $200 handbags.

If people will buy it why not. You cannot live off of your child forever @2. I do not know if I would put my mother in her clothes but I am sure someone will find these threads cute.

The Knowles are smart people. They are all able to start businesses on the strength of Beyonce. They’ll be rich forever.
It is also a good thing that Tina is catering to all types of women from small to big, older to young.

Why “Miss” Tina? Isn’t she married?

Wait I just looked at the line, no still not interested in any of it. And I wish she would not pimp her stuff as couture or a taste of it. To be couture you actually have to study an Italy and receieve some special acknowledgment as a couture dress maker, you cannot say you are couture just because you want to sell your threads at a major price. There are less that I think 100 couture designers in the world and Miss Tina aint one of them (using aint for emphasis). The one… has spoken.

I think the outfits are cute…However, I agree w/#9 why is she saying everything is coture….maybe so she can slap a fat price tag on it…..& where is the big model so we can see how these clothes look on a size 24………

Okay I must say that I hate the HOD line. It’s looks lil cheap.

But this stuff from Miss Tina a very cute and sassy. I like it. Good looking Mama Knowles.

I would wear most of that!

The Knowles were rich before Beyonce and before Destiny’s Child, I thought they were already millionaires from the parents two businesses and that’s what helped them set up their DC boot camp training thing they had going on for the girls to develope. My point is these people have always known how to make money and do business and capitalise.. Its not like Beyonce just came and made them rich. I think i remember reading they almost went bankrupt putting everything they had into creating and launching DC and Beyonce’s careers. Now they’ve got a higher platform to springboard theirs shit.. Only black people try to bring their own down when it comes them showing these types of smarts. Its like we don’t realise this is what white people do to create wealth. Why can’t we just see it as anything other than smart??

21.

Monday, August 20, 2007 /

I hate when people dilute the word couture..Couture pieces are of the finest material, finest of cuts…putting an expensive price tag on an outfit does not make it couture.. the clothes for me seem very dated…it feels like she is trying to recreate fasion pieces from 4 seasons ago… + this woman SCARES the hell out of me.! But hey somebody will but it…

22.

miss tina looks a helluva lot better that house of dereon. that stuff looks like clothes you can get at forever 21 or charlotte russe… for WAY cheaper

Those outfits look quite nice actually.

My ONLY concern is that headshot of Tina. WTF? It looks like she’s advertising something for the health-care system, with that boring background and bland font.

oh and PLEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSEEE tell me what a “spicy, creole-inspired silhouette ” IS..! FOR GOD’s SAKE WE GET IT..creole, jumbalya, the French Quarter…DAMN!!! Talk about overkill..!!! Im not BLACK…Im CREOLE..!!

I’m so sicka Beyonce n her mother. The House of Deron’ is cute I give them that but their goin over board wit all dese otha clothing lines. Shit her stuff iz more money than Baby Phat, and Kimora’s line is way betta

Watched the show lastnight and her clothes are really cute. Tried to order a few pieces but they sold out in my size. Really like the jeans, but they are cut a little bigger than normal, so I’d need a 2 and she doesn’t carry that size in the jeans. Was able to get the red jersey dress and will be interested to see how the quality is once it finally arrives (it’s on extended delivery). Must say that I much prefer this line than the HOD or Dereon lines. Those lines seem to cater to teens and twenty somethings who want to look like they’re in a music video. The Miss Tina line is definitely something I would rock. Good luck ‘Miss Tina’.

I never understood why Black people are so quick to down talk one another. Which is very sad for a race of people. Blacks need to celebrate the fact that black designers are trying to come up in businesses in general. The black race is a disgrace. It will never prosper:( I applaud Tiny!

Monday, August 20, 2007 /

As #9 and #21 stated Miss Tina’s stuff ain’t couture, and she’s abusing the word by associating it with her HOD lines. I’m not gonna knock cos i love seeing black people do well and this line ain’t as bad as i thought it would be, but she needs to leave the word alone.

I study fashion and i know that to be a couturier and for your clothes to be considered as haute couture you have to be based in France (although there is one couturier in america, and 1 or 2 in Italy) and use the best of the best when it comes to fabric. you should only have a certain number of staff that hand make the clothes-couture is NOT mass produced.

It’s banal, ugly and the purses are knock-offs of Gucci, and the design is from years ago, too…. ???? Her stuff looks about like anything else you’d see on HSN, though… It’s boring, conservative, mass produced fluff… I wouldn’t wear it to hell…

Monday, August 20, 2007 /

@27 and 20, NO ONE SAID MISS TINA COULDN’T MAKE MONEY, my issue is with the quality of her clothing line. It is not couture nor should she say it is or a replica for the poor masses. Hell I am sure no one in here could or would be stupid enough to spend 10,000 and up on a dress, I would not and I make a good living.

If you want to get black and politic, we need less new threads and more in our heads.

How about launching a publishing company that promotes black writers and gives voices to spoken poets who cannot get published in America because less then one percent of publishing companies are owned by our people.

Same old same old, in the black community, lets make money off the poor by selling useless overpriced cheap clothing shoes and purses. God forbid we do it by diversifying our product to build our communties. How about you launch a housing community development project where you build affordable beautiful homes for the working class instead of the super rich or poor which is more then 60 % of our community, we do work as you like to tell us, no one is hating on Mrs. Knowles, but damn do we need another clothing line. I cannot wait for Solange to come out with her teen line, or Mr. Knowles with his Kat-Daddy threads, wow that is just what we need.

Let me get off my soap box..the one has spoken.

LOL I was watching it last night. At first when I say “Miss Tina” on the schedule, she immediately came to mind but I was like “naw that can’t be her” but then i was flicking through channels and saw her sitting there.

I don’t understand why she wouldn’t just promote HOD because it looks EXACTLY the same but at a MUCCCCCCCHHHHHH affordable price-point *well not really after you consider the tax, the shipping and the handling—— u may THINK u’re buying one of her shirts @ 79.00 or sumthin’ but at checkout, u’re looking at $100 spent on one item*…. Some of u mite not consider that so cheap.

Either way, they all look the same. Kelly even called in @ one point and kinda claimed for Tina that all her stuff were oh-so-authentic and well made cuz she was with her thru the whole process of preparing for the show… I don’t kno if I believe all that but she was doing a good job of vouching for her..

Maybe Miss Tina will finally get some credit for this line… Good luck to her…

I think this line has more to offer “grown and sexy” women. I really wish Haters would fall back. U have the right/option not to buy the clothes, u have the right to an opinion. But u do not have the right to call someone names, demean their apperance or make “assumptions” about her motivation for making money. Tina NEVER said she wasn’t Black, read the whole interview. She said being of Creole Heritage influenced her life in lots of ways. That is the equivalent of saying “Im from the Boogie Down or Im a Southern Shorty”. In no way at all does that take away from a persons RACE. It gives props to how you were raised. Stop Hating on the Knwoles and study their business sense, come up on a come up and then prepare urself for all the HATERS u will encounter.

Please check the facts b4 u make a statement. The Knowles, Beyonce and Kelly both individually purchased 2 apartment complexes in Houston to house Katrina victims (all living expenses paid while waiting 4 FEMA to come thru). When Food Banks were depleated in Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas, the Knowles quietly made TREMENDOUS donations thru their Church and did not do any publicity around it. Several Boys and Girls clubs in Texas have updated equipment and computers courtesy of the Knowles. Proceeds from DC concerts have benefitted these foundations;, Ronald McDonald House, Dress for Success, Komen Foundation, Unicef, United Negro College Fund. Matthew and Tina employ lots of African Americans in their various business ventures. Get it together people! You never see Immigrants or Whites downing their own or not supporting the businesses of their own kind.

Thanks for setting the record straight. Why should blacks not hold one another up to the same high standards that whites hold themselves? Bless the Knowles for their obvious business acumen, but I do believe they get as much praise as they do criticism. That’s part of the game.

As another post stated, Tina’s use of the word “couture” smacks of blatant ignorance. That offense ALONE makes her suspect and I applaud the posters on this board who called her out.

@#27 LOVEONE

You watch to much Soap Channel. Talk about dramatic. And cut it out with the blanket statements on the black race. Shit sounds just as ignorant as the whole couture thing.

Smart decision. “Miss Tina” collection will do real good. Her collection belongs on QVC, HSN, Oprah Magazine, Style Network and Life Network. Her marketing targets are for the working class. I have nothing but “good” remarks to write.

Tina Knowles should do better than Nick Canon, Kelis and other R&B clothing line.

49.

Natural Mystique

Monday, August 20, 2007 /

Nothing sold on HSN is real couture. These clothes are obviously for the more mature woman who sits at home and watches QVC and HSN all day long as a hobby, and there are plenty of women across the country who do just that. She’s targeted the right consumer.

Am i the only one that thinks this line is not selling like….AT ALL. I have honestly never seen anyone with those clothes and i really think they know that and thats why their trying to find so many ways of selling it overseas or (now) to bigger consumers.

I think Tina is doing her thing to be her age I mean she designs clothes for her daughters and a whole lot of people. Some of yall don’t give her the credit she deserves I mean she ain’t mean to nobody and she does what a mother is suppose to do and she ain’t living off her kids because in a thing about beyonce’s life she said they had money but had to give it all up for their daughters dream. Now that’s a real mother!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HATERS NEVER PROSPER

Monday, August 20, 2007 /

Tina Knowles did not ask to be creative when she landed on this earth.
She was born with this gift and clearly she is using it.
Now nothing is new under the sun and what she did was put alittle spin on dated fashion.Think about this, people are rich today only because of their creativity and passion for whatever talent they have invested in.
Think about what your passion is and start to invest because it will make room for you.

peace and prosperity

#56 are you serious? please stop it right now.

The clothes are cute, I actually would order a few pieces when they go on sale, just like I would with any other designer.

Quick Question
Why has this post turned into a white/black/creole issue? It’s no different than any other post on this website about other celebs on the come up. Tina has her hand in HOD, Dereon and Miss Tina. It seems that people take things way too far, especially this issue of her promoting her new clothing line. If I were given the opportunity to start my own clothing line, I would jump at the opportunity. And I’m sure some of you would do the same. People know her, and associate her with designing unique clothing, and that’s what she is doing. Now it would be a different story if she was droping a new album or starring in a movie role. You are entitled to your own opinion, BUT please pump the brakes on the hating….

I respect Ms. Knowles for being a business woman first, but this is same stuff Lane Bryant was selling back in the late 90’s. It’s not fashionable. I can’t even wear this to work. This is something I would wear to bingo night or to the casino in Atlantic City. At best, it’s strickly for the weekend. I also wish that ALL THE WANNABE’S would stop knocking off the shoes. NO substitute compares to the real thing.

DITTO #20. Didnt’ read any past yours :o)

CONGRATS! HOD WAS HOT (SOCIALITES LOVE IT), DEREON IS KILLING IN SALES AND THIS WILL DO THE SAME.

FOR THOSE THAT DON’T KNOW WHAT COUTURE MEANS - IT’S BASICALLY THE FIT AND THE QUALITY. IT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE EXPENSIVE “MATERIAL” (BUT, OF COURSE, EXPENSIVE MATERIALS ARE USED IN COUTURE ITEMS) AND CAN STILL BE COUTURE BECAUSE COUTURE IS MORE ABOUT THE FIT THAN THE MATERIAL ITSELF.

“HOD” IS A HIGHER VERSION OF COUTURE THAN “MISS TINA”. THEY ACTUALLY SHOULD CHARGE “PRADA AND GUCCI” PRICES (WHO YOU’LL SPEND YOUR MONEY WITH) FOR THIS LINE BECAUSE THE MATERIALS ARE EXPENSIVE AND UNIQUE ASIDE FROM THE FIT.

I THINK THIS LINE WAS CREATED FOR THE “BIG GIRLS” BECAUSE THEY WANTED HOD AND DEREON TOO AND NOW THEY’LL HAVE IT.

GREAT BLACK FAMILY DOING GREAT THINGS.

Monday, August 20, 2007 /

Miss Tina is a very talented woman. She is a real seamstress! Kimora isn’t and will never be a seamstress. She is however a big faced woman who married some rich old man and took over his fashion line. In short, I’d buy Tina’s stuff in a heartbeat over Baby Phat because Tina really knows a woman’s body unlike many celebrity “designers” out there.
Work it out Tina!

Good point #20….we as blacks seem to get awful heated when upwardly mobile blacks are running businesses. We don’t say a word when white folks do the same things and making millions. It’s that slave mentality we still possess so many years later. That “nobody can do better than me so I”m gonna pull them down” mentality.

AND HER CLOTHERS LOOK CHEAP AND UGLY ON TV…

And for all of you, who said you would buy Miss Tina’s cheap clothers, go right ahead..and when Miss Tina’s clothers falls off your body while you’re walking down the street…I’M GOING TO LAUGHT MY ASS OFF.

Good for Tina. Some of yall in here dont have the particular smarts or hustle when it comes to making money thats why the majority you are hating. Some people want to achieve and go places in life and some dont. Its not your buisness to tell Tina how to run or operate her sh*t. Yall wonder why some people prosper head of you and you still doing whatever medicore or lame ass job your doing. Time is flying, the competition is hot. Money and oppurtunities are here for only a limited time.
Damn, I know yall heard of Strike while the iron is hot.

You do not have to study in Italy to be considered a Couture Designer. Couture originated in Paris actually with designers like Charles Worth, Elsa Shiparelli, Cardin, etc…… And Couture means hand sewn, meaning not ready to wear. Customized meaning if I get a couture dress it fits me perfectly to a T because it was made with my measurements and to my liking and it is a one of a kind. So no Tina’s clothing aren’t couture. What she use to make for DC was couture cause it was hand made, (not needle and thread but sew by hand on a sewing machine and not in a factory by an assembly team) and one of a kind. Study the text book Business of Fashion and you’ll see.

I think Black Americans are a curse race . you don’t see any other set of people hate on their own like black America. People from the Caribbean India, AFRICA Asia all stick together and support each other. , but black America do the opposite.

What if she want to live of her daughter they gave up a lot to let her be all she can be . maybe if you parents did the same your ass would not have a 9-5 job.
if they change the name on those clothes and say D&G or Armani all you motherfuckers would work 2 jobs run up credit cards to get one, but because its black ppl doing it you find fault.. when they say black ppl are a curse race i think they mean black America. Every other race came to USA succeed and leave black America behind now we see why. During segregation they were lot of black business’s but after segregation they all went belly up because blacks prefer to spend their money with white ppl more than their own. you black america are a sad set of ppl.

just because honda comes out with a newly designed accord every few years doesn’t mean everyon and their mam has to buy it.

STANs fall back this shit is wack so what if people buy it there are some smarter people that knwo what is up. and it isn’t this clothing line’s quality.

shelling out gaudy cheap clothing lines.

Her target market must be old fuddy duddy older white women, cause they would be the only ones who think that cheap lookin fabric is stylish or “couture”. LOL at how she brands everything “couture,” when she knows damn well she probably got that cheap fabric from a dime store.

And it’s also funny how they are always peddlin that cheap shit to people, but yet, they stay wearing armani and dolce and gabbana. I smell a snow job here. They throw some glitter and big tacky cubic zirconia buttons on something and call it “couture” and charge a arm a leg from that crap. LOL….whew, they are snowing people…but to each their own.

I must say, out of the whole knowles clan, i admire the mom’s grind the most.

lol cosign 106. Exactly! That’s what i was thinking but i just didn’t know the name of those old patterns.

But it’s something about beyonce’s mother that i really like. I think she’s the most genuine of them all, though greedy, but the most genuine at heart. I don’t know why i get that feeling. But her grind is on point.

Why are people “hating” if they choose not to like this ummmm stuff, I’ll say…??? huh? We just have different sensibilities (mine and everyone else’s who scoffs at these clothes being the best lol) Really, though, COME ON… You can’t be serious with thinking it’s social irresponsibility, our disliking these rags? Tina is all about being commodified, well, let her be…and just like any other commodity I don’t like, she can sit her oddly witchy looking a88 on the shelf.

I like pic #1 and #3 .Very classy and stylish) I guess she grew tired of all the media scrutiny and questions from people about the HOD (House of Dereon’s) lack of stylish clothing for the real plus sized women,and their high price tags!.For those singing the praises of HOD I respect your opinion,but I havent seen anything that impressive on that line beyond some of their shoes and maybe a dress or 2! I like designer wear but Im no slave to it. I can feel comfortable in a dress that costs $30 as a dress that cost $150. Even Gucci and all those other high brands charge some outragous prices for many of their pieces(even the ugly clothing) but their target market are the rich and famous who are willing to shell out big money (which is small money to them) just for the item becaus eit has that designer tag,however ridiculous ot looks.

I feel like there are alot of haters leaving comments, if she feels like her line is coutore then let her.. If it was u on ur hustle u would say and may do what ever you had to -to get that sell so STOP HATTIN DUDE!!!!!!!!!!! I think the line is great very feminine atire very sexy. Women whom this look really taget is not a 18-24 yrs old females its more or less 25 and over. WOMEN WHO SEEM TO BE TIRED OF WEARING BABYPHAT AND SEEING THE SAME FEMALE AT THE CLUB WITH YOUR SHIRT OR JEANS (LOL) at least you dont have to worry about seeing the same female w/your shit on boots,shirt,jeans etc…..

I love Miss Tina’s line. They were very beautiful pieces that were shown. It is awful to read such negativity written by haters. If it was your mom you would not want anyone to talk about her. Instead of downing them get off your butt and design a line of clothing. This is a gifted woman and she has class and much style. I am creole as well and no it’s not another way of saying we are not black or on another level it’s a culture and heritage. We know we are black but read the history on creole people as well. I can’t stand when ignorant people have so much to say. Learn your history , learn your damn history.

Black people are the worst critics of other Blacks. We should be happy that the Knowles family is so tight knit and working together to provide a life for themselves - more Black families need to do this. Papa and Momma Knowles gave up their careers - their livlihoods to see Beyonce, Solange, and Kelly succeed and they have done just that, yet they get no credit for it. We down Black men like Papa Knowles, but stand up for child molesters like R. Kelly. I don’t want to hear not one damn negative word about Beyonce and her family. Complain about all these rappers who have to be taken to court to pay for child support - and they’ve got the money to do it.

Why are you hating one such a postive woman. When was the last time we saw a celebrity Mom who instilled dignity and respect in her children. She stands by them, let’s them shine and yes. She has finally realized her dream of being a designer. Beyonce is the epitome of grace and respect. She respects herself and is very humble. We as women should embrace the Knowles family instead of hate on the. When was the last time your Daddy quit his job to help you live your dream?

Beyonce’s gown at the 09 Academy Awards was chosen as the worst. Why in the bloody hell would I take fashion advice from a woman who just copies real clothing designer’s works and just makes it cheap (manufactured in China) and hoodish? Beyonce looked like a fat fool on the red carpet wearing a so called “gown” made out of her living room curtains. Tina Wina should stick with dressing the foolish and illiterate which is the majority of these people who posted here and HSN shoppers.
