Susan's show just had the models stats noted in the upper left corner of the screen.  Very helpful.  I only saw it for the model on at that.   A few weeks ago they did it on the models of her PM show.   It would be helpful if they listed their inseams in flats see as well.  There are long and short torsos as well as long and short legs.  Angel soon Quacker tells us every show.  I hope they start to do this on every show.  The earlier show also listed the size for the top and bottom.  Several models take 2 sizes.

It's a great idea and I saw it too....

I haven't seen that.  Great idea!

All you can really tell from looking at the models (and hosts) is how they relate (physically) to one another, not how you might relate to them.

Great idea to have the actual measurements given.

I've always wanted them to do that on all the shopping channels.  It would be so helpful to see a model that looks similar to my size and know what sizes she's wearing.  I don't understand why they haven't always done this. I mean, if you're a model, that should be part of the job IMO.

The average American woman does not at all relate to the sizes of these models except for the plus ones. I don't know what a person deems they can gain from this - but whatever ! I guess in some women's minds they think they look like these models.

.....and generally speaking, most customers can't even relate to the plus-sized models because they are nowhere near that tall.  Proportions will be completely different so the look of the garment will be completely different.  I am neither thin nor overweight and I'm neither tall nor short.  There is no model on QVC who can demonstrate what the clothes will look like on me.  Not even close.  So when are they going to have models who look like the "average American woman"?

Probably never because people would complain that 'average American women' would be used instead of models! We can't win for losing!

I don't buy clothing at Q, but I have noticed that, to me, they have a nice variety of sizes of models. They seem to cover a lot of bases, in height, weight, age and body shapes. 

I think showing their stats would be helpful

Very nice change. I think it would be nice to know about all the clothing & accessories on each show.

I love the polka dot top!
