QVC Presenters - Please discuss the fit

NYCLatinaMe — Mon, 08 Feb 2021 16:10:44 GMT

It is so frustrating to watch fashion presentations with zero discussion of fit.

Beautiful Side Stitch top, a brand I have never bought because of the high prices. But love the style and jacquard material. Measurements suggest size down. Zero discussion of fit in the presentation. Frustrating.

Never bought this brand either since I felt it is way over priced and I don't care for the styles they presented. As far as Hosts , they do not add any + to selling items . Was there a Rep ? If you are lucky there may be reviews online for this top.

Yes, they spoke about a TV show. Brand new top.

Imho it would be most beneficial if the hosts/models gave the size they are wearing as opposed to their normal 'Q' size. That would help me evaluate how the garment runs.

Perhaps QVC just wants to support an enormous returns department, along with whatever other employees may be needed for the additional work involved.....

Why does the one listed as olive look like grey to me? I didn't see the presentation. So what color is it really? Frustrating.

I rewound. The presenter said "relaxed fit" in a sentence with many other things. They mainly spoke about how expensive it was, but so high quality! That was it. Not very descriptive. Just wanting to be fair.

@eddyandme

Actually, the bust and hip measurements would be much more useful than their height!

If they say a model is 5'8" wearing a small and the pants look they were painted on - it would be nice to know what her hips measure compared to garment measurements.

She mentioned the grey appearance and that it looked olive in certain lighting. Yes confusing.

One person's fit is another's return.

For this particular item, I would be concerned about how big the shoulders would be if I got a size to fit my bust. That can't be addressed on air.

It is very frustrating when they do not give important info on what is what is presented. All they seem to care about is "only order of the year, never going to come back" blah, blah.

I wasn't thinking height @ALRATIBA , but that would help too! I just like to know if they've gone up/down a size and how it's fitting them. Also imo coats/jackets should also be shown closed. But it doesn't matter as they haven't changed their presentations even though many shoppers request it.

@Pecky, you 'blah, blah,' comment it totally right on!

Just wanted to add on Sat had QVC on for sound. Suddenly heard IM politely call out the host. So I ran over and checked the TV. I saw this host sitting on the studio floor!! Looked to see what they were selling - lace pants!!! Yes the host was rolling around in lace pants while presenting IM's lace pants for sale!!!!! Kinda good - got my attention - don't know what else they sold in that show, but I remember those lace pants.

@ALRATIBA

It takes a lot of chutzpah to announce your height and WEIGHT as Shawn has taken to doing lately but she also states she's in the smallest size offered?!!!

At 3.5" inches shorter and 30 lbs less does it mean that I and those like me can't shop?? I don't find that to be the case but it sure makes me hesitant when she's presenting!

I was watching when a host said what she weighed and her height. She said she was wearing a zero in the NYDJ. I weigh the same and same height and am a size 8 in regular sized clothing. I don't think I could even zip/button a size 2.

But it does me no good to say MaShonda is 5'8' and is in a size large and I'm 5'2' and wear a size zero.

The main reason I return clothing is the fit.

@granddi

That's what we're talking about! The fit! You don't find it confusing when you're considering a purchase and someone with the same stats as yourself regularly wears a 2?! And I am taking into consideration how one carries their weight differently but more than one or two sizes seems highly unlikely to me regardless

@NYCLatinaMe- It would nice if a significant amount of time would be spent on the actual garment being presented.

Much time is spent bantering with vendor. One host spent of the time praising the vendor and vice versa- then sped through the colors and laundering instructions like the Road Runner.
