There is no way I use the way the clothes fit the models as a measure of how I think they would fit me. I use the garment measurement and whether or not it's fitted or semi-fitted. Most of the items on Qvc are interpreted for talls but they make it sound as if it will fit the woman of average height too....some do but many more do not. Torso length, ribcage size, arm length, etc etc. It all matters.
