Wearing the right size.

Auti Girl — Fri, 27 Jan 2023 15:44:29 GMT

I watch QVC everyday. Love all the models. I'm noticing lately that Pam is being put into pants, especially leggings, that are way too tight for her figure. Denim &Co is notorious for putting her in leggings that make her look like she's stuffed into sausage casings. She is a beautiful woman. Please fit her in clothes that enhance her figure.

She is not stuffed into anything. She and other plus size models frequently show tight jeans, leghings, etc..

Not a good look imo, but to each their own.

@Auti Girl I'm not exactly sure what item(s) you are referring to on Pam. However, I watched for a brief period of time this morning and saw her in some leggings. She was not "stuffed" into them. They appeared to be the correct size. In all honesty, leggings may not be the best to enhance her body type.

Welcome to the Forum @Auti Girl .

Too tight clothing on the hosts and models has been a frequent topic here.

I noticed the same thing you did. Usually the larger size models need to go up a size or two, but I think it's up to the QVC stylist who determines sizes worn by the models.

I don't understand why they put Pam in tight, slim leg pants when there are other models available who could show them. I imagine the way she looks in them deters many people from buying them.

Its not a matter of size as I'm sure they fit through the waist and hips, its just that her figure is not suited for that leg style. She probably couldn't keep them up if they put her in a larger size.

If you want to see the "stuffed sausage" look, go to HSN. I'm embarrassed for some of their models' appearances as they can border on the obscene.

@Auti Girl : First, welcome to the Forums. Your post brings to (my) mind - I have often wondered if the models are allowed input as to what they wear or the sizing.

I have to agree that some models/hosts would look better if they went up a size. I suppose they wear what's handed to them. If they sat down they would be uncomfortable. Not their best look.

Spot on @Kachina624 I believe she is in the correct size re waist & hips. IMO tho if you have heavy legs that type of pants is not flattering and going up a size would not solve the problem.

That's how leggings fit, they're tight on everyone. The models wear what they're handed, that's their job & it's been mentioned many times on air that all colors & sizes are not available in studio for the models & hosts.

@chlema Absolutely correct.

@kitcat51 Legging or slim pants should not be a mass of horizontal folds all the way down the leg. They should lie smoothly with no creases. Horizontal lines = too tight.

What some love others don't so why not leave it at that? Women should be able to wear clothing, including--gasp--stripes as they wish unless indecent with body parts flapping in the wind.

How saw that many women are bullied out of wearing stripes, or lots of other things that "don't flatter your figure." Ok. So what?

Fabric has alot to do with that & it happens in all sizes...DG is a good example, some of her 👖 are cringworthy.

I have to laugh when they say they wear size xxs in a jacket and they couldn't button it if they tried.

@Auti Girl , I agree with you. I've never been a fan of skin tight clothing. If something is too tight, it's not flattering on any shape. However, there are some who don't care, and, others who prefer to say they wear an XXS. Whatever!

Imo, if you aren't happy with the size that fits your body, cut out the tags!

Speaking of sizes which is always discussed and it will never stop, some of the host do not appear to be wearing their correct size such as Carolyn Gracie a size large....and Jane Tracey a small..... However, I really dislike the way Carolyn Gracie wll turn all round and say she is in a large and will yell over and say Pam are you wearing your 1X when IMO Carolyn is not far from the same size as Pam just shaped different which is nothing wrong with either of their bodies. I just feel like Carolyn is rude to Pam in the way she yells her size instead in a more professional manner could simply say Pam wears a 1X.

The horror of a plus sized model! I hope you survive this tragedy.

Yes, I find it appalling how some people critique plus sized women, no matter what they wear.

I've lost 80 pounds. I know what it's like to be on the receiving end from strangers. The harm you do is lasting. Just stop it!

Re: Wearing the right size.

kindred cats — Sun, 29 Jan 2023 17:26:53 GMT

@CalminHeart ...........I'd feel very bad if I ever made any of the models feel body shamed. Their job is not easy, and they probably have little input as to what they wear or how they're treated by the hosts.

If the hosts treat them in an unfavorable light, they should be ashamed of themselves.

No Eliphant. I saw Pam on Denim & Company wearing the same pair of pants and she DID look like her legs were sausages stuffed in casings. They were so tight, she had creases behind her knee joints. I thought to myself how awful she looked and she walked out before the cameras in front of millions of women who watch this program looking like that. I don't blame her, I blame the people who pick the clothes out for her to wear, and let her go out before the cameras. This was not a way to sell this particular pair of pants. I notice she models many other non-flatering outfits that don't fit her body type. I think Pam is a pretty lady. I love her hair; she has a pretty smile, and she seems to enjoying modeling. She does have an unusual body type, but she can be put in the proper clothes that make her look beautiful, and make you and I want to buy her outfits. After all, that's what she and others are modeling for so we will buy them. The people who dress her should be fired and I would tell "Gary" that If I could find out where to write to him. Does anyone know where I can write to him?
