The Art of Style: Make Your Wardrobe a Fashion Museum of Color and Shape
I recently took a trip to Paris, France where I visited the Louvre. As I walked through this iconic museum which houses classic original paintings by master artists Renoir, Matisse and Picasso my eyes were excited by the layers of opulent colors and I felt deeply inspired. For hours I walked the halls taking in the beauty that surrounded me and as I did I wrote down every color that made my heart swoon. Specifically, the blue you see in my fall Renaissance Collection was directly inspired by a piece of textile on exhibit that really moved me.
As I absorbed the brilliant display of artistry around me, I was also highly attuned to the fresh crisp shapes on display which reminded me of the fine American tailoring of the 1920s and 1930s. I took pure inspiration from these shapes and created clean line jackets, softly draped dresses, and fluid skirts as a homage to eras past. One of my favorite pieces is the Modern Expressions Studded Couture Jacket which reminds me of the silver screen era. The neckline frames the face perfectly, and it reminds me of a classic scene where a passionate man is holding his woman close. It is pure bliss!
So now it is time to pull out your high leather boots, billowing pearls and turquoise and tune into HSN to see all the latest Antthony pieces for fall. I know you will gasp with delight when you see yourself in the mirror wearing this classic collection, just as I did when I first saw the Mona Lisa. I promise you will be a picture of loveliness as you dress layered this change of season while celebrating the art of style!
One Love,
Antthony

Antthony you ROCK! Your Stunning Addition Maxi Dress is perfection! Please bring it back for summer in MORE COLORS IN JEWEL TONES. I love this dress and have it in the black and aubergine. We need it in ESPRESSO CHOCOLATE BROWN, EMERALD GREEN, and DEEP CORAL for summer. The darker shades are more flattering and very few designers know how to create for us full figured gals. I live in these dresses and get a ton of compliments on them! xoxo

Anthony, I have been a follower watching you since you began and have watched you reach for the top in design. Please continue designing for women of all colors and shapes. I’m excited to see you include more form fitting designs for all sizes. You are a gift!
i must say–you have taught me style–i am a retired US Marine–and my wardrobe consisted of uniforms–sweats–shorts and tee shirts for 22 yrs——-you have turned me into one gorgeous woman !!!!!
You have oudone yourself with this last collection—–fantastic !!!
Anthony got your color block dress in all the colors and I am so so glad I did. The material is really soft, not a flimsy dress and it truly complements every body type. I also got the color block cardigan and tank and I love them all. Just have to space them out when wearing them. I have had some black, navy, grey, burgandy and choclate brown swade shoes that I have been waiting for over a year match with something and these are point on. Thank you for making such affordable clothes.
Dear Anthony, I watch all your shows,and I am so grateful that you always design witha womans body in mind and especially us plus size ladies, I was really happy to hear that you will be bringing out petite size dresses in Feb,my birthday is Feb 15th so that will be a great gift for me. May I suggest color blocking in a vetical design in the future as that has a slimming effect, from darker on the outline to lighter in the center. see Barbra Streisand in Funny Lady as an example of the styling
Anthony… you made me cry tonight ..your clothes are so beautiful…but i can’t buy them because i need a 4x-5x…I usually dont watch the fashion shows on HSN because of that fact..But your fashions caught my eye tonight and i could not stop watching…so i cried ..watched..dried my eyes and watched some more and shed more tears…You are a wonderful designer. I am disabled and dont go out much , but when i do i sure wish i could be wearing your designs…Your Friend Jean
Couldn’t take the chance of Antthony’s new designs disappearing (as they do) before I got a chance to order! I ordered today. As soon as I ordered I clicked on Antthony’s FB page & a new item had been added! I called the last time Antthony was on HSN with adorable Bobbi but couldn’t get through to tell him what we ALL want to tell him! Antthony’s designs are almost as devine as he is – the reason he is so popular! 16 yrs. of Antthony purchases for me! He’s why I’m an HSN’er. Love & Hugs Antthony
Hello Butterfly, this is Bobbi from fb! I too have taken the walk through the Louvre, and I can see it’s influences in your collection! As I have said all year, this 17th Anniversary has and is your greatest collection I have seen! I like! I love it! I need to have more of it! Ladies, you will fall in love with Antthony’s designs, as there is nothing more flattering, easy care, easy wear, original, and feels wonderful when you wear them. Believe me, if you buy one, you will be his for life!
Once again, HSN I need way more than 500 characters to describe Antthony’s designs! I wasn’t able to speak to him the last visit, so operators, be prepared, I will keep calling again. HSN is so lucky, to have Antthony’s talents! I am glad that you have finally given him, what his ladies know he deserves, his own day! Be prepared, our numbers are growing, and we expect that this will continue in the future! Ladies, you will never feel the same in anything less!
And I wanted to add I ordered early, not waiting for the big show. I know how fast your sizes sell out. I tried to order the Modern and Divine Georgette TunicItem: 131-037 and by the time I clicked thru the online process it was sold out in my size! I love your tunics. Great for over shorts, capris, leggings. Beautiful tops. They are wonderful for us girls that lack that perfect movie star skinny figure. Yea for average. You make us look great! Thanks Antthony. :)
Hello Antthony, You did it again. Out of this world Fabulous collection. thank you for making it affordable for us working women. I cant say which new design was my favorite because I love them all. I just ordered 2 of the Expression of Color Kimono Sleeve BlouseItem: 132-671. You know I always order one for my sister to match me. Love the easy comfortable wearability of your styles. love the wash and hang to dry no dry cleaning aspect. Your designs are Fabulous!!
Hugs, Mary
Hi Antthony,
My favorite vacation was recently to the Dominican Republic in May. The weather was beautiful. The resort and staff were excellent. The food , well what can I say something that everyone enjoyed. The best part was having family and friends there for my baby girl’s wedding on the beach. I sported Antthony all the way except for the wedding as the dress that would have been perfect came on the next show. Regardless my daughters and their friends gave me compliments Sandra from FB
Hello Sunshine this is Tracey from FB…. I went to Hawaii a few years ago and it was so beautiful. I have wanted to go back but my health has kept me from doing so. I will again go back sometime in the future, I just have to. I went to the Botanical gardens that displayed the most beautiful waterfalls, love waterfalls…. and then I rode a klidesdale horse on the Dole plantation that was another great time and mingled with the service men that were protecting our country, it was a blast, Muah!
