Is a 22/24 the same as a 3x ? Thanks.

According to the Q's general size chart it is a 2x but it's best to go by the garment's "click here" size chart.

Qvc like many other retailers has it's own sizing system. So, yes. In Qvc world 22-24 is a 3X. That does NOT mean that if your sister says she wears a 3X, you should order 3X from Qvc. Sizing does not work that way. My daughter wears a size XS in Qvc world, she doesn't wear a size XS anywhere else in the whole wide world. She's a 6/8 in most stores. Qvc sizing tends to be more generous than most retailers.

It depends on where you're shopping. There's no industry standard. It is with many catalogers but not QVC.

That's me too!

It's called "vanity" sizing.

Excuse me but at QVC, a 26/28 is a 3X.

True. But that doesn't change anything else I said. Qvc Sizing is Qvc sizing.
