tsv sizing

151949 — Mon, 28 Jul 2014 12:38:48 GMT

On QVC's size charts the 1x has a hip measurement of 49" . The hip measurement for a 1x on the TSV pants is 44 " . Seriously?!?! 5" smaller than the person's actual hip measurement. You would certainly have no wiggle or jiggle - you also would not be able to breathe.

Yeah, QVC buried this one quickly.

I do not know what you mean by they buried it already.

I ordered it in black as it is the perfect outfit to have available for funerals. The pieces are versatile and the fabric doesn't wrinkle. We've all been caught off guard by a death and the last thing you need to do is worry about shopping for an appropriate outfit. The navy would be a good choice too. It also comes in petite which doesn't happen often.

It went to page 3 within min. I liked it - which is unusual for me with WWC. But when I checked the sizing - no way would I wear pants that would be stretched over my butt as these would be. NO FORCE ON EARTH would make me wear that. And if you got the size for the pants to fit the rest would all be way too big.

Are you saying QVC moved your thread to page 3?

I haven't checked the sizing on the TSV yet.

Low hip measurement is 44. 1X size chart is 47-49. I know there has to be a fair amount of stretch in the pants.

The bad thing with sets is if you are a different size on top and bottom, which many women are, it would be impossible for this to fit correctly.

I wish they would have done the set in a two-tone look like they displayed in the picture.

The sizing is way off, however. Would have been better to do the sets like this (so that people could have purchased it as a two tone). Get rid of the dress as dresses are really hard to fit sometimes for women (top is larger than bottom and vice versa)

pants & skirt - one set

tank & cardigan - one set

I would have purchased both sets like that...

doesn't this conform with "that's why we sell separates, because we're different sizes top and bottoms"????

i am not a different size on top and bottom - I always wear the same size. This PRODUCT is sized way smaller (5"") than QVC's size chart listed for a 1x and I bet they are similar in all sizes. They are cut way way skimpy in the pants.

So would you really wear a pair of pants that had to be stretched 5" just to get them over your skin? Do you think they would be flattering?

I like WWC and have a few pairs of pants. I generally have to size up though. I am Not a fan of sets like these because I Am not one size. But the sizing chart is a guide and Not a rule.

I think this material is very stretchy. It doesn't look tight on any of the models - and if you look at the CL measurements, they are as proportionately small in the S, XS, XXS as they are in the larger sizes.

No one is saying to size up. So I'd think you'd be fine in your normal size for these.

I almost ordered until Jane just said she was wearing xs. It doesn't look tight on her at all. Did Renee say what size she has on?

I ordered it and I'm hoping for the best! If not I'll just return. I went by the sizing chart for the TSV not the general Q chart. For me it works since I tend to wear a smaller size bottom than top.

With Jane stating she wears an XS and Renee an XXS....I refuse to buy this brand. I am not shaped like either one of those ladies and if I got a letter from Qvc I'd be really steamed.
