Love ya Shawn but....

KittySoftPaws — Tue, 13 Aug 2024 02:14:31 GMT

I love Shawn K. but she has got to stop saying she is a size 2 in jeans etc. The liverpool rep is a 4 and Shawn is a 2? Come on now Shawn. You look great, but you are not a size 2.

Who really cares? It is not important. Besides,everyone is built differently. It is almost impossible to guess what size somone is wearing by looking, especially on TV.

Women should not be valued or judged by their size. Being a size two is nothing to brag about....it's just a size you wear.

@KittySoftPaws Does it really matter?

I do have to add, there are a few brands on QVC that I wear a 2. By no means am I a true 2. I am more a 4 or 6. So, maybe she IS wearing a 2 today. But again, what does it matter. Everyone should check garment measurements before ordering a garment anyway.

I would think, based on the fact my daughter now wears a 6 and once wore a 0 and a 2, before she had a medical situation which (thyroid cancer) which has caused her to gain weight on her thyroid medication but before she knew she had cancer, she was a 0 and a 2, but she was very small. She is tall but I think the only one as thin as she, would be Amy Stran.She was so thin, her ribs poked out and I didn't like to hug her for fear I was going to break a bone.

Yes, garment measurements should be checked. But I think it matters to those looking for a visual on what size they might wear in a garment. That's why the clothes are modeled. Better to say nothing than to give a customer the wrong impression that could result in a return...or worse a never to return again customer.

@KittySoftPaws

Oh please ... this is an easy one.

Here's my theory ....

The clothing manufacturers send samples of new styles to the hosts that usually sell their lines.

Before the samples are sent off, THE SIZE LABELS ARE CHANGED. It might be a size 6 or 8, but the seamstresses sew in labels that say Size 2.

So, the host thinks she's wearing a size 2.

LOL

@Tinkrbl44 YUP!!! I shop in "discount" stores...and have found a lot of "mismarked label" items...some of them even sewn in upside/down...off center, wrong sizes, etc. This stuff is usually joblotted by the manufacturer....at HUGE discounts. di

I would agree that it makes a difference to say a correct size for someone looking at Shawn and making a purchase from what Shawn says she wears. No one reading this may do this, but there are some out there that will.

She was a size 2 at one time in her life:

It may be important to someone trying to order her size based on Shawn's comments.

I'm smiling reading the comments made me think this happens on Amazon with reviews and pictures. The pictures as well size mentioned wondering in what world does that person sincerely believe they're really a size small? I'm amazed at some pictures.

The clothes fit two or three times smaller not kidding.

QVC HSN: vanity sizing, another topic by itself.

@SanAntonio Gal..I agree w/ u!

Re: Love ya Shawn but....

Desertdi — Tue, 13 Aug 2024 06:46:50 GMT

Sometimes I think there are printing errors in those measurement charts.

AMAZON "recommended" a size Large or 12 for me. I weigh less than 100 pounds....

Amazon Rocks!

ID2 — Tue, 13 Aug 2024 09:48:07 GMT

It's the QVC sizing. Yes, she is certainly a 2 because the Q's sizing has always been off. When I used to buy clothes from them I had to always order a size or two down from what I actually am. Why would she lie and why would the Q let their host lie about her size??

Re: Love ya Shawn but....

Janey2 — Tue, 13 Aug 2024 11:44:57 GMT

@ID2 there is another host, who shall remain nameless, who lies about her size all the time. For the longest time she says she is a a small yet over the years she has gained weight yet remains a small. If a host is sensitive about their size they should not announce it, that's why they have the models.

If I wore a size 2 a strong wind could knock me over. I am 5' 9" tall LOL

Re: Love ya Shawn but....

RespectLife — Tue, 13 Aug 2024 12:14:53 GMT

I highly doubt the Legal Dept at Q is going to let the hosts blatantly lie about the size they have on.

As others have mentioned, all lines seem to have their own sizing. What size I may wear in one, I may not in the other.

In many cases, the size they are wearing is not the size WE think they should be wearing but that is a different issue all together. (esp on some of the models)

Like a stated before, I don't believe anything that comes out of her mouth.
