Re: NO MENTION OF INSEAM

inseams seem to have gotten longer recently at QVC. I have always worn A regular length which used to be 29 inches. Now it seems that regular is 31". I have started ordering petite length now. I am 5 foot 5 1/2 inches tall. I guess they think everybody wears a 2 inch heel with their jeans!

I have to disagree with many here. I don't watch for long periods but most always the inseam is given. I seem to watch a lot when Mary Beth is presenting for some reason, I hear her give all inseams to the viewers.

I know people here do not like to hear they should go to the "click here" for measurements. But, if you truly are considering purchasing and not just griping about hosts, these measurements are very helpful. I too need an inseam listed, I am petite size but borderline where some petite's are too short. In addition to the inseam I also must have the waist and hip measurements. I'm a pretty curvy XS/Small so I need these.

I really suggest looking online before making the purchase. I also shop other places online and have been very surprised they don't give ANY measurements. Plus, there is usually one very tall and thin model wearing the apparel which doesn't help. I want to give kudos to QVC and HSN for almost always posting all the measurements of the garment.

Not all bodies are shaped the same. I am only 5'3" but prefer a 31" inseam since I have a very short torso but very long legs!!

SG makes a LOT of shorter inseams....check out her line. I never buy her pants/jeans since they are WAY too short for me.

Are you serious? They still charge for exchanges! I have a stack of complaints I have made about CLAIMS they have made about crappy products & when I returned them, they still charged me shipping & handling! I have stopped buying from them. I have a box of junk that doesn't work like they said it would & a giant box of clothes I NEVER wear because they don't look good waiting for our city cleanup! It makes me sick to see how much money I have spent & throw away every year.

Returns for clothing costs $10.48 & shoes cost $12.48. This is too much to try something on. Mary Beth is a host that will say, "if you are petite you will have to hem these" or "maybe you should wait for a petite length". Actually, hemming bellbottoms doesn't work at all.
Please explain to me why I have to keep calling CS to get something credited?

Sounds like QVC is not working out for you.

OK! This is it! This is really it!
I have been saying for years thst people no longer understand how to measure!

Even the Chinese who have been sewing and manufacturing for years and years, do not know how to measure!

picture this: two women cutting and sewing two same items...let's say pants. BOTH SIZE 12. One waist will be 36 and the other size 12 will be 40.

So we cannot gauge sizes to buy!

Yesterday, I was shopping for jeans online. In particular, I was looking for selvage jeans at a certain brand. I've purchased skinnies at this same brand a few times and know my size, so I looked at the measurements. When compared to the selvage, there was an inch and a half difference in the waist of the same size jeans. (Throws up hands!) UGH.
