New QVC Sizing Guide?

nova — Tue, 29 Jan 2019 14:21:17 GMT

Has anyone else noticed there is a new QVC sizing guide? There is now a size XXXS added to XXS and all the other sizes. Yet there are no corresponding changes made to clothing sizes for sale here. I always try & go by their measurement chart & dislike the extra cost of returns.

I did notice that, but haven't seen any items actually offered at that size. I wondered what the true 0 and 00 would wear given the Q's ridiculous vanity sizing among certain lines.

@Love to Run I agree! More vanity sizing isn't needed.

Sizing was added to both ends. XXXS, 4X, 5X.

On on of the D&C shows over the weekend it was mentioned that they are trying to offer more sizes. However all it did was confuse me. They showed one of the models and it showed she was a size 10 in a large. A large was always a 14-16 in the past. Now I'm really confused as to sizing.

I seem to have fallen down the list to XS, does this mean that I have further to fall? This is hilarious. Do they think we don't know they are fooling with us?

It is confusing and annoying if you thought you knew what your QVC size was. In stores I am a 4 - 6 Petite . Here I am XXS or XS which I would NEVER wear in a regular store.

I find this really confusing when I shop at other on-line retailers. QVC clothing is huge compared to other stores.

I noticed, I don't watch shows so I just assumed there were clothes offered in that XXXS. If not, it seems there will be.

That's so ridiculous. Just have regular sizing S, M, L, XL, 1X & so on. We don't need Vanity Sizing. You are the size you are deal with it. So what if it says size 0 or says 5X that's your business. Anyways DH says if you are a size 0 you don't exist. LOL!!!

Has Q ever thought if they had regular sizing they may not have so many returns. No wait that's the whole idea since they make so much money on shipping & return fees.

Different lines also have their own sizing. GILI, HALSTON, Isaac and others like Barefoot Dreams flash up their own sizing dimensions. With the shipping charges rising and inevitable cost of returns, unless I’m darn sure something will fit, I’ve stopped ordering clothing, shoes and bras.

I just bought a SG blouse and either wear a medium or small, first time I ordered an XS based on the size chart...I was a little worried, but it fit perfect. And I can honestly say I am definately not an XS or even a S...I agree with you ladies on these vanity sizes..

I think the XS is fine. My daughter is a 0 and I would imagine she is an XS. I think she can wear some 2's but usually a 0.

I did not know as I don't watch anymore. But, it's just another reason not to bother with the Q. Long ago, when I first started watching, and eventually dipped my toe in the water and started ordering, there was consistent sizing and I believe (might be mistaken) the sizing was more like regular b&m stores' sizing.

I'm really surprised that QVC doesn't adjust its sizing to match HSN which runs smaller and is more in line with B&M sizing. QVC is about the only ones I know of with this crazy sizing.
