I usually wear shirts with cuffs. If I wear them alone, I put a rubber band around the cuff, turn it up and push it up.....it stays.
I do not push up cardigan sleeves because I always have a shirt under them.

With sweaters I often push up sleeves because they tend to stay where you put them. With jackets, I never push up, but I might cuff on occasion. In TX if it's chilly enough for a jacket, or blazer, I want the arm coverage.

No I don't push the sleeves up.
I prefer 3/4 length sleeves.

I can not remember a time when I did not push, roll, fold, or generally zhudge up my sleeves. Since I was a child. It must come to me naturally, no way do I think of it as a fashion statement. Its just what I do. Strangely, I do not care at all for sleeves that are ruched, with the 'zhudging' sewn in.

Oftentimes, the Q models and hosts will push back the sleeves. I'd rather see how the jacket or sweater looks with the sleeves down - especially on jackets.
I did see some of this presentation in the morning...what I noticed is for a time she had them pushed up and they kept falling down and finally she let them hang. The length of the sleeve on her went to her knuckles or rings so much to long for her and I am sure she is in a XS or the smallest size.
This garment is too long in the length and the sleeves for me at 5' 4" and I like my sleeves to fit at the wrist correctly. Only if I was say washing my hands or wearing dish gloves to rise the dishes do I push them up. Shoving up the sleeves constantly would drive me crazy LOL!
I think the Q models do this only when the sleeves are much to long on them. The taller gals can do both in these presentations to make the look more relaxed?/
As a shopper with short arms I watch where those sleeves hit so I don't placed a order for something I can't wear.

I've been waiting for some clever QVC designer to come up with a blazer with ruched sleeves that would make it easier to obtain this look. There are some for sale on Amazon and I do have an old ruched sleeve blazer from Susan Graver - wish she would do that again.
Most brands in B&M have ruched sleeves. I can hardly find any without it unless it's a very high end brand which I usually have to end up buying in petites.
I have an old Rachael Zoe with ruched sleeves. It's still one of my favorite blazers.

I agree 100% why do they instantly push up the sleeves? I never do that unless I am super hot or my sleeves are in the way somehow (don't wanna drag my sleeve through the nacho dip! LOL)
I also wish models wore their back or up from their shoulders. It hard to see the collar and neckline through hair.
You'd think they'd offer some coaching on how to do presentations. Show the item. Show the colors. Show the details.

My sleeves came down also when I puched them up. now I put a wide rubber band over the sleeve about an inch past my wrist and push up. They don't come down.
Like this, thin bands are uncomfortable..

Thanks, @ECBG , but I had some of these years ago. They may still be in a drawer! I stopped using them after a few times - I think maybe I found them too constricting, but don't really remember.

It depends. I push up the sleeves on sweaters, long sleeve tees, sweat shirts. I cuff the sleeves on my jean jackets. I have short arms so I have to do this with many of them.
