Quick question about the Women in Control TSV

NiteStar — Mon, 03 Feb 2014 14:21:00 GMT

Will this material compilation (86% cotton; 14% spandex), in the black color, catch every piece of lint that passes by and have it cling to the pants? I don't want to be picking lint off my clothing all day!

The women with control pants I have in this fabric content do not seem to catch lint. I'm not interested in this TSV merely due to the fact that the legs bag out on everyone.

I notice on all the different sized-models, the legs are all bunched up.

What's the deal with that Aim? I looked at De Anna, and she's tiny. The legs were bagging out terribly.

I bought a pair of the zip front jeggings in black from eBay. I don't know about lint, because I only wear them for working out and around home. But they fade LIKE CRAZY and they really do stretch out. By the end of the day I can take them off without unbuttoning the waistband or unzipping the fly.

I've had them somewhat less than a year, and they look absolutely horrible. I started to wear them underneath a long sweater with a pair of boots earlier this month for a quick dinner out, and took them off because they looked so bad. They are forever banished to the gym, where I have no cares about the way my pants look.

Don't waste your money.. You would do better at Walmart. These are very poor quality and sizing is off. I ordered them a few weeks ago from the insider and they were awful. They would be okay the wear around the house instead of pajama bottoms.

Poor choice for the fabric.

ITA. I have one pair of WWC pants that I just wear around the house. They are too sloppy looking to wear in public. Comfy, but sloppy!

I like Women With Control leggings and for the most part have been satisfied with my purchases, but lately that has been changing. Like a lot of brands WWC pants/leggings seem to have gone the way of making reducing quality while raising the price. I'm suspicious that they are selling the TSV for $25 because they aren't the old Women With Control quality (which didn't pill and fade fast), but because they are so cheap most people won't mind if the fabric isn't as beefy as their original 86/14 cotton/spandex and the color fades quickly.

Watching now and they look very baggy. I also just ""love"" the sales pitch. Wear the bright colors now with boots. . .cause you won't look like you don't know what season it is. Riggght.

The reviews indicate it pills terribly. I bought a pair of boot cut pants when they were a TSV and I washed them before I wore them. I ended up with a lot of pilling. I admit I did not turn them inside out.

I don't own any of the WWC pants but hopefully someone who does can answer your question.

I have 3 pairs of WWC pants. I don't know the particular fabric content offhand. They have never pilled or collected lint. My pants are black. I think they wash well. I hang to dry

Same here. I have quite a few pairs of WWC - no pilling - no lint.

There was one review that said they pilled. One review said they did not.

I am tempted, but they do seem to wrinkle on some of the models, but not on Renee or Jane or the super thin tall model in this morning's presentation. Do you have to go down a size to get them to be wrinkle free? I would wear them as almost leggings, although that is not how they are being presented.

I rarely buy clothes from QVC, a few pieces of Linea every now and then. I used to buy some Denim and Co tops when I first discovered QVC about 10 years ago, but they were a lot cheaper then! I just hate to buy and then pay the return shipping.

They are surely pushing these tsv pants...

Lipstickdiva — Mon, 03 Feb 2014 16:49:59 GMT

I'm not the least bit interested in these pants because IMO no matter what style Renee brings, they all look like super casual, athleisure type pants to me. I would never wear these except to work out or lounge around the house.

I have purchased 2 Attitudes by Renee knit tops in her poly/rayon/spandex blend and both of them pilled horribly after the first washing. They were pilled from the shoulders down to the hem and down the sleeves. I was very, very disappointed. And I even washed those on my hand wash setting of my washer.

That pretty much did me in for anything from Renee.

I'm just not an ankle pants type of person, I learned. I either like full length pants, or capris/crops. I like some of the WWC pants, I have several pairs of leggings too. I don't notice any pilling or lint or anything on mine. They are super casual pants tho, I wouldn't buy them for work if I worked. Unless you work at a gym, they aren't really work-wear.

I like the leggings I have, better, because they are a poly/cotton blend, vs. the cotton/span blend she usually does. I think that bit of poly in them, helps them hold their shape (which is good, cause they are leggings). I have several pairs in the tall and they fit so well, and I can wear them with flats, also. I bought them to use with boots but I do like them with flats and they are long enough I can wear them like that.

I just don't think ankle pants are very flattering on me. They seem to "chop off my legs" visually, and make my legs look shorter (my legs are long).

I don't have any of her tops, I just haven't liked any of them enough to spend the $$ on them. They all seem like too much material around the hip area for me.

I just remembered, I do have a few pairs of the pedal pushers, I wear those with sneakers on days when I walk near my home and to the mall on days when I am walking there. Those have faded a little bit, but they got mixed in with some of DH's clothes one day and got washed with regular detergent.

I usually wash all my WWC and yoga pants, and other knit pants in Woolite on gentle to prevent fading.
