Ugh! Why does it seem all hosts & vendors are XXS

KKJ — Tue, 13 Apr 2021 22:01:21 GMT

Watching Amy with Renee and Amy said she wears the tight leggings in XXS (of course). Also, Renee too was in XXS as well as model Dee Dee. Just seems weird as I'm very petite and thin but even I don't wear XXS! Just hard to believe sometimes as I remember when LR did fashion shows she too would always claim to wear an XXS. I was like "Say what?"

You should know by now Q specializes in "vanity" sizing.

In B&M stores I am a size 9/10. Prior to eating I can easily squeeze into a size 8.

Q sizing - XXS <----- Haven't been that size since I was a fetus.

From back in the days when there were studio tours, I remember many posters mentioning that the hosts and models they saw were surprisingly tiny, so I am not surprised many wear an extra small. I do believe most of them are smaller than I am- so definitely ES or XXS.

I believe what they say, and, can you imagine? "I'm in a small" says Amy Stran. What size would you order?

Most people on TV & movies are small

Even the men (Tom Cruise)

Carolyn has never claimed to be anything other than a large size. Jane T. used to rattle on and on ad nauseaum that she was an XS. Those days are long gone.

Renee looks be slender and slender hipped and Amy is just small.

The XXS has a hip of 35' or so, sounds right right to me. Especially for leggings.

One of my DDs is smaller than Amy (based on looks) and her hips are smaller than this. Just a little shrimp I produced 😍

They’re not ! It’s quite comical when they put on their xs or xxs clothes . Can’t button or pull across the chest ,etc.

@KKJ Don't you just love it when host, vendor and models all 'xs'. Really gives us 'ordinary' purchasers a good idea of what we are ordering haha!

Yes, QVC has extreme vanity sizing. I ordered a clearance top from Isaac Mizrahi in a 2, could have easily taken a 0 while in regular stores I’m a small and sometimes medium.So I’m not surprised by the host sizes.

Why bother yourself over what others say their size is? I worry about what I wear. Maybe they can fit into a xxs but clearly that size is too small and too tight. If it makes them feel better about themselves, so be it.

Really, you think Amy and others are lying about what size they wear??? Good grief! QVC sizing runs VERY large...I am 5'1' - Jane's height- but 30 pounds lighter at 100-105.Yes I wear an XS, XXS at the Q. Other places I shop I'm a small and cannot squeeze into an XS.

Yeah, and not even XS. So many claim they are XXS. Now Amy, ok maybe so, but as I said earlier, LR an XXS? Not seeing it.

Jane T. just said the other night that she was a Small, the XS is gone.

Mary Beth doesn't sat that and Leah says she is a medium and used to say a large before she lost weight, so not all the hosts say that. Nor do the models. I only watch LOGO but there are medium mideks(Bonnie or Taleah(?) ), large (Jackie) and XL or 1X (Mashonda , Ronnie)

So, I am a plus size gal. When the host repeats over and over XXSmall, and Lisa Rinna demeans large-size gals, I feel like I am inferior. I know I am NOT, but boy do they pile on.

Pat too, says she is a medium on top and small on the bottom. She can be self depricating, but I think she looks great.

My daughter is 15 years old, barely 5 feet tall and weighs 79 lbs. She "petite" as the doctors also said and will always be petite (she was born 3 months premature weighing 1.7 lbs.) She can wear an womens XXS or XS. I know how tiny my daughter is, I can't imagine how tiny those hosts must be.
