    I love the designs but, evrytime i purchase any type of clothing made from this line, it always have thread hanging and the material is not quality at all. I only have purchased them from macys. Everytime i go there i say im not going to buy anything from that line, i end up doing it anyway and double stitching it myself, only because i love the design it self. I believe that the money that im spending, on just one outfit, the quality should be alittle better. What am i paying for, the name?

    The designs lack originality. Overindulgent student art projects fueled by Beyonce's ego and her mother's wanna be exposure of some sort.

    They do have plus size, I bought a pair size 18 in Macys and they fit great. Good quality and flattering. I was pleasantly surprised, Beyonce & Tina got it right.
