I made the unfortunate decision to buy the Denim and Co. TSV dress A471744, the French Terry dress that was sold on March 11.  I did not like the fit and am returning the two that I bought.  I wrote a review on the fit.

However, my title was, MADE IN CHINA, because it was made in China.  I stated the fact that it was made in China was not a deal breaker for me, but that it was for some.

Well, well, my review has not posted after 4 days.

It was in fact, made in China, just like any other fact about the dress.

I guess QVC does not want that to be known.  Was that somehow violating their review standards?  Or do they just not want anyone to know ahead of time where it was made?

I submitted a very positive review about a pair of Denim & Co. pair of pants over two weeks ago. It still isn't up on the product page. So it isn't just negative reviews that don't get posted.

Usually takes 10 days average.  Don't agree with you.

Well my reviews usually get put un within a day or two.  We shall see.

@Puppy Lips   So it was made in China.  The description indicated the dress is "Imported".

So you returned the dresses based on fit-and headlined your review with "MADE IN CHINA".

Would you still have headlined your review with the country of origin if the dresses were made in another foreign country??

I get that the "Made in China" is a stickler for some and I am not thrilled with China importing so many things.

Would you have kept the dresses if they had fit???

@Cakers3 Yes, I would have kept the dresses if they had fit.  I have many Denim & Co. dresses that I like very much, some of them french terry.  The two Denim & Co. skorts that I recently bought, like, and kept, were made in China.  I guess my point in the headline was to make future buyers aware of where they were made.   And if some people object to Made in China, then they can pass.  I don't think as many people have objections to any other country making our goods.  Frankly, I wish that QVC would just come out and state where they are made in the description.  They use factories in many different countries, not only China.  Why not be open about it?

@Puppy Lips   I agree with @Cakers3.  The vast majority of those who object to buying items manufactured in China see IMPORTED as a code word for China and act accordingly. 

 I don't know why your review hasn't been printed yet, but I do know if I were looking for a review of that dress, I'd be unlikely to read one with that title.  I look for reviews that tell me details I couldn't know or guess from the info on the website.

@Desertdi  Maybe a more appropriate photo would have been a map of China!

@millieshops I did give details, but pretty much echoed what others have said that it was a poor fit, and talked about the colors.  I think almost EVERYTHING they sell is imported.  I have QVC clothes from Viet Nam, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, and other countries.  I find it hard to believe that whomever writes the descriptions don't know, or can't find out, where it was made.  I suppose there is the possiblity that the fabric comes from one country and it is sewn in another.  I just think that QVC can and should be more transparent.  I have read some comments from people who have returned items simply because they were made in China.  They have every right to do so - but that is a waste of their time and money.
