Twelfth Street designer, and Los Angeles resident, Cynthia Vincent was at the Lucky Fabb conference yesterday in Santa Monica showing off her gorgeous dresses and tops.  Her stylish pastels and watercolor/batik like prints were the perfect compliment to the setting at the Marion Davies Guest House in Santa Monica, CA. The designer’s attractive maxi dresses feature feminine touches like ruffled hems and vintage inspired buttons.

Although Ms. Vincent’s designs for her Twelfth Street fashion brand can be pricey, you can frequently grab deals on her designs via sample sales posted on her Facebook page.  For The Recessionista in all of us, Ms. Vincent recently launched lower priced versions of her line on QVC.  “I am excited to bring my design work to a new audience through QVC. What is exciting is that the QVC customer is diverse and engaging,” says Cynthia Vincent. “By going directly to her, I am able to see what exactly is resonating. Immediately it allows me to be more inclusive by offering a wider range of fits, sizing and price points.” Although some designers don’t offer plus sizes, sizes 1X, 2X and 3X are part of the CV (Cynthia Vincent for QVC line.) Most pieces are prices at under $100.00 US, a substantial discount, considering the usual over $200.00 US price point for a Cynthia Vincent Twelfth Street dress.

Look for some of the CV line on clearance, like the above pictured maxi dress.  Ms. Vincent told me that she’ll be back on the QVC airwaves on during The Lisa Robertson Show on May 11 at 10 PM EST/7 PM PST. She was worried that this may be too late in the evening.  I assured her….that’s the beauty of QVC, some of us like to shop in the evening, even the late evening.
