View Full Version : Missing Weekenders

I found Weekenders clothing right before they closed their doors last year. Ever since then, I've been searching for another direct sales clothing company, similar to Weekenders, to purchase from.

I've looked at Jockey Person-to-Person, but it's too athletic for me (I want to be able to wear this clothing on the weekends and to the office).

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Wish I could point you to the perfect source, but I don't know of any companies with products that would fit the bill. Weekenders had a pretty unique clothing line. The only time I've ever seen anything similar was in a local boutique 25 years ago on a visit to Canada. A quick search of both the DSA and DSWA websites doesn't show any direct sales companies but Jockey that sell women's clothing (other than accessories).

You obviously like jewelry...have you thought about Stella and Dot? There are just too many reasons to list about why it is so fabulous!

The new line was just released.

S&D has very cute styles, but I make my own jewelry (I've been down that road of selling for someone else).

I love your work! I just thought I would mention it, as I used to make my own as well. Best wishes on finding your 'perfect fit'!

Thank you so much! But really, I'm looking to find a comparable clothing company to Weekenders for my own personal wardrobe.smileys/smiley1.gif

I miss Weekenders too. I have a lot of their clothes. The clothes in the stores just don't fit me right and I loved the mix and matching that they offered. It is such a shame that they are gone now.http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley19.gif

Weekenders was a wonderful company and offer a fabulous product line. I also have missed them in the last year. (I had been with Weekenders for 14 years.) Since then, I have bought quite a bit of Cabi. It is a bit different than Weekenders in that is it not so much of a mix and match concept, yet their clothes are absolutely beautiful!
Please let me know if you find something that you feel is comparable! I would love to have something that travels as well as Weekenders. Thank goodness their clothing last so long, I still have some great pieces that I have been able to wear for years.

I never heard of Weekenders until they closed. So I never bought from them. We have CABI, here and everyone loves them!

Couldn't agree with you more!
