I would like to communicatte this message to QVC Managers and Hosts: Hosts blab on an on about everything but SIZING. Theye go over colors, which we can actually SEE, over and over and over again, but we are lucky if they spend any time on SIZING at all. Again, if we're lucky, they might ask the models what size they're wearing (so we might get an idea of how it might look on ourselves). I just watched a video of a top that I liked, and the host had all the models there, wearing the top, and said, to my amazement:"You're all wearing your normal sizes, right?" And that was it.UNBELIEVABLE! For a company that sells clothes online, charges for shipping and returns (most of the time) it's incredible to me that more time is not spent helping customers get the RIGHT SIZE. This needs to change. Same goes for HSN. Both lose sales, from me at least, because I don't have enough infomation.

All items have detailed sizing information. You think the host should give arm measurements, etc??? 😃😃😃😃

Please don’t get upset. This topic is ongoing to no avail. The smartest advice we give each other is to do two things…. Take your measurements as described by the Q’s quick tutorial or HSN’s (which I think is even better) write them down for your quick reference. Then, on any garment that interests you, scroll to the specific information about the item, there you’ll find a line item that states for specific measurements click here. (I’m paraphrasing). Click on it and all the actual measurements for the item are there.
All of them. It’s so gloriously helpful. This will quell your trepedation and frustration. Anyway, models and host may not always be wearing or telling us the truth about the size they’re in. Depend on the item specific measurement chart. It will make it far easier for you to correctly order your best fit. Good luck friend.

This is my biggest complaint!!!!  I'm sure that I would have ordered more in the past.  It has been very frustrating, and one would think that since there have been many complaints about it, that QVC  would have done something about it!  But, it appears that Q doesn't care about their customers!!!!!!!!!

charts don't help if you're in between sizes, which happens to me often!  Or if you don't exactly match one size,,,a bigger but, but waist and hips match,,,

@CandidaB. I don't find sizing a problem at all. QVC clothing run pretty much true across all lines so if you buy a medium in one line, chances are you'll wear a medium in another.

 

The best way to judge is by using the actual garment measurements which are listed for each item at the end of the description.  Simply take the basic measurements off nicely fitting items from your closet and match the numbers.

 

To say something runs large or small is subjective and open to interpretation.  Best to use solid numbers.

I very rarely can wear any clothing form here. Even following the size chart--have not had anything close to being accurate. So I don't buy. Same with HSN altho---I did buy jeans by DG2 that fit like a dream!!! Why?? I have no idea but got 3 pairs recently.

I don't order when my measurements don't match a size.

Everything is not going to fit me.

I take the same approach with foundation,

I don't order when there is not a good shade match for me.

@wagirl.  The size chart is useless.  Use the actual garment measurements and compare it to something you already own.

I don't watch much Q on TV anymore. I prefer to shop their website. I always check the garment measurements for each item before I select a size and buy. That usually works for me. I know my measurements and how I like things to fit me so I rarely have to return anything.
