Why do you do this?

I would love to know why QVC posts clothes images from the side so you really cannot see the item at all.

You have new blurbs and videos on your home page and there is no information about any of the items you show. Today's TSV has a sideways photo and it is a print placement top.

I'm not a fan of this tucking in of so many tops that shouldn't be tucked into the waistband. Just because it is a trend doesn't mean you should keep doing it. Certain tops look awful like that.

And of course it's taking too long to get the ordered items and too long for the return process to happen.

You read my mind. Ditto on everything you wrote!

I definitely need to see the clothing on the models from the side as well.

Jennifer , who isn't a teenager this morning had on a tucked in on 1 side

Tshirt. I automatically dismissed it, then, one of the models came out with a proper way of wearing clothes.

Just another fad , hope, it will pass and soon. They think it makes them look young and hip . If somebody took to wearing mens briefs on their heads all would do it to follow the latest bright idea.

I sort of think that everyone is styled in some way or another. The other night I saw a woman who was showing a product and she had an odd top on partway tucked in so it pouffed out. It was awful.

When showing pants of all types, I want to see the waistline. Where the waist is on the models.

I can always count on Models Aday (sp?) and Blair to lift their tops and show their waists/tummy area.

And a couple of other models (I don't know their names), too.

I've said this before:

Showing the waist, tummy, and back side are very important when ordering pants.

If they are 'too tight' on the models, then I size up

And why do they always pick the very darkest colored item (clothing, handbags, etc.) to show the details? That is... if they even show and discuss the details.

And many times either the model and/or the host have pants on so tight it does not show the best of the pant....I could not function with my pants so tight they wrinkled on the thighs and under my behind....not very attractive on any woman or for selling purposes on air!

I must say that a substitute? model (blonde right-at- shoulder length hair) on a recent D&Co. show kept showing (over and over again) the waistline, waist band, and tummy area.

Item A51961 Side Pocket Original Waist pants.

Made my day!!

Wish I knew her name so I would be able thank her.

Attention to details and common sense are MIA at QVC.

the idea behind the half tuck is that in the front itmakesthe legs look longer but still provides coverage in the back. Unlike Susan Gravers long and longer which makes everyones legs look short and stumpy. Why doesnt a designer understand this

I personally like the half tuck, but I think when showing the garment it should be worn to show the full garment and from all angles. I noticed the petite models are half tucked or a full tuck in front and back hanging down. I presume that's because the top is way too long for a petite, but the Q wants to sell it to the petite woman anyway. These models really need to show the garment from all angles and same with online.

@Chloe55 @Yes! And also agree with @lady jane who said they always choose the darkest color to model where it's difficult to see the details. Another pet peeve of mine are photos of the models with the longest hair covering all the details of a garment. Sometimes you can't see the shoulder detail at all. Makes no sense if you're trying to sell something.

You speak the gospel ! What about the big gals who come out with pants on so tight it's hard for them to put 1 leg in front of the other to walk. Creases everywhere from the thigh on down to ankles. bet they can't wait to get backstage and unbutton, unzip and breath. If you wear 1x, 2x, then for God sake put on that size don't come out with XL on.

Even the 5'10 skinny models who put on XXS let loose baby girl and put you on some small or mediums. ROFL
