I wonder if the lack of items on the website is because they're showing spring and summer things. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/odd-pendleton-catalog-photo#post-1783900 Fri, 03 Mar 2017 21:14:13 +0000 Anonymous 1783900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hee hee!&nbsp; Good one, RA.&nbsp; Maybe that's a nightgown she's wearing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/odd-pendleton-catalog-photo#post-1783884 Fri, 03 Mar 2017 20:13:18 +0000 Rambling Ann 1783884@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wonder if they aren't trying to link the clothes to their bedding line.</p> <p>I have a wonderful cropped jacket made out of a Pendleton blanket. It's fully reversible, like their blankets. Got it over a decade ago from an American Indian College Fund program. That jacket will outlive me and whoever inherits it. But I have never seen anything like it in their proper catalog. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/odd-pendleton-catalog-photo#post-1783721 Fri, 03 Mar 2017 05:50:37 +0000 Teresa 1783721@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have liked where Pendleton's been headed in the last several years. &nbsp;They've kept things for their core consumer, but added things of high quality that appeal to a younger customer too--I have a plaid shirt style washable wool dress that I wear over skinny jeans that I think looks fab. &nbsp;(Photo is of a similar dress--mine is a red Stewart plaid). &nbsp;I've also liked their collaboration with Van's shoes and the Gap. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/odd-pendleton-catalog-photo#post-1783693 Fri, 03 Mar 2017 02:46:08 +0000 binkle 1783693@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This cover doesn't seem too off-base given the catalogs I've received for years, just maybe a little younger/peppier? Typically classic non-trendy solid quality career and casual clothes. Rather Talbotsy (which is fine with me). Pretty colors, feminine blouses, sweaters, dare I use the loaded word "nice" . They seem to sell the woodsy shirts and wool blankets separately. The Christmas catalog features men's and women's traditional plaid and cozy wear, and blankets, pillows, etc.</p> <p>Annagybe - I've always secretly wanted one of those long blanket coats! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/odd-pendleton-catalog-photo#post-1783601 Fri, 03 Mar 2017 00:13:09 +0000 annagybe 1783601@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They shut down their Portland Collection a couple of years ago. It was a more trendy collection, but still good quality. It was hard to find, but I loved my stuff from it. I thought it was popular as it sold out fast, but maybe they couldn't justify the whole extra staff etc.&nbsp;<br />I've now seen stuff similar in their catalogs, which makes me happy.&nbsp;<br />They still have their classics, but with other stuff mixed in.<br />I don't find this racy at all.<br />It's not like those osteoporosis drug ads with the "sexy" dancing x-ray skeleton.</p> <p>ETA...looking at the website, I'm more upset that they've seen to have done away with their western heritage clothing. Though they still have it in the blankets and house stuff</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/odd-pendleton-catalog-photo#post-1783596 Fri, 03 Mar 2017 00:04:41 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1783596@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pendleton has a lot of items outside of their 'core competency' in recent catalogs. I wish I knew whether they were selling or not. Maybe it's a volume thing, or that they can get them produced for less than their well-known items? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/odd-pendleton-catalog-photo#post-1783564 Thu, 02 Mar 2017 22:31:15 +0000 rachylou 1783564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not how I think of Pendleton. Who the heck are they trying to market to? And why would I buy a wrap dress from Pendleton? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/odd-pendleton-catalog-photo#post-1783560 Thu, 02 Mar 2017 22:26:10 +0000 unfrumped 1783560@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, that's it.<br /> I agree - tame but lame! It just makes no sense to me, in any good way, for a dress photo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/odd-pendleton-catalog-photo#post-1783527 Thu, 02 Mar 2017 21:08:17 +0000 Anonymous 1783527@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is this the one you mean?&nbsp; Maybe I've been brainwashed by the advertising industry, but this seems pretty tame compared to some ads I've seen (e.g., Abercrombie &amp; Fitch).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/odd-pendleton-catalog-photo#post-1783504 Thu, 02 Mar 2017 20:08:55 +0000 Liz A. 1783504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can you show us the picture? Having a hard time picturing it. Sounds like an interesting marketing choice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/odd-pendleton-catalog-photo#post-1783501 Thu, 02 Mar 2017 20:03:29 +0000 unfrumped 1783501@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I guess it is old now, a January Pendleton catalog orphaned In a stack of junk mail. But I occasionally find things likable in Pendleton due to the grand fabrics. </p> <p>I found the front cover photo off- putting even though I know "what sells".<br /> The model is wearing a wrap dress, but is lying on her back on a hard floor, with pillowed head and arms flung above her head and dress hiked well above knee. The dress itself is later shown to knee- length or even just below.<br /> There are lots of ways to do creative/ tasteful/ tasteless fashion photos, and I guess I'm more used to that in a fashion magazine than a catalog, but this just made Pendleton seem desperate. Though they could be crazy like a fox. </p>
