Model sizes

marcoshopper — Tue, 28 Mar 2023 16:12:33 GMT

Hello, have enjoyed a two hour show of
D& C with Gary & Jane. Please, Jane, shouldn't it be part of your presentation for clothing items to tell your viewers more about sizing. I have stopped ordering because of my return cost and inconvenience.
I think others feel the same. We need to know. Please, consistently make it a part of every presentation. We hear you review item number many times, but no mention of anyone's size. Thanks

It doesn't help me in the least to look at someone on tv and pick my size by what they say. I could guess that I look like so-and-so, but in reality I dont. Sizing information is on the website listings, in two ways; a size chart and a garment measurements chart. it's up to the consumer to use those tools and order accordingly.

Does it really help? I wear a large and I am not built like Carolyn at all.

I'm slender with wide shoulders and a flat tummy!

Still a large!

@marcoshopper I can understand why they don't get into sizing. It's subjective and often how a garment fits is a matter of opinion. Read reviews and on the exact same garment, one person will say it runs large while another says it runs small.

No host wants her opinion to be the cause of people returning a garment. You have the garment measurements. Use them instead.

I like hearing what size the models and hosts are wearing. Carolyn was closest to my body type and she usually said she wore a large, which is my size. Very helpful to me to see how it actually fit.

I also check the garment measurements but it is useful, at least to me, to know what size they're wearing.

@TheMemphisVette Thanks! Very interesting even though I don't know 90% of the models But there seem to be a LOT of xs and s, not so many ls (Rebecka?? Adrian??) which is why I appreciated seeing Carolyn in the clothes.

@marcoshopper Regardless of what is said or not said during presentations I am online checking for myself - any information I can get on sizing, garment content and hopefully reviews.

I used to look like Kate, but then I woke up from my dream! LOL

I am a mixture of a ton of hosts and models, and absolutely not like any of them

.....BUT when Amy models, I can get a general idea 2 sizes larger!

I always check the size & garment measurement charts first . When in doubt I check compositon of material and compare to an item I already own that is similar. I do like to see how items fall on the petite models as I am short and really do not wish to hem. I also like to observe how the models reach their pockets.

Another important read is the FIT. The garment info will state if it's fitted, semi-fitted, etc. If you do not like fitted I suggest going up a size. If you like it more fitted to the body and it states semi-fitted, I suggest going down.

Jayne will point this out occasionally. But all in all, your best bet is "garment measurements". I find this the most accurate.

I find it helpful too but not definitive.

BUT .... you do have to give her credit for telling you WHERE you can wear it and what kind of footwear to wear.

I'm almost as thin as Katia. Pretty much so. But she's 5'10" while I'm 5'3". So I never look at the models. I wear a 0-2 usually in dress size & petite. I look at Candace as my figure is closest to her. And I am in proportion. So don't usually have a problem. Those that are not can go to the malls and try them on ahead of time. The heavy and obese models are all very tall. I don't think QVC has one that is short and heavy

Most of the hosts will tell you the size of the models (not their weight....which is another factor in size though)

@marcoshopper

Please don't assume Jane reads these posts. Go to her facebook page and tell her directly. And the thread to your lower left called Suggestion Box. If Jane actually listens, others will thank you.
