Q Talk

[millieshops]

@makenaYou're right.  There are lots of other places to shop. 

But here's the irony I see in OP's plaint:  Although right now, I'm not a plus size, when I was QVC was actually one of the better places to look for a variety of choices.  There's not all that much plus size elsewhere - at least I didn't find it within my chosen price range for clothing.

Yes, they show plenty of things I couldn't wear as a 1X - but I can't wear them now at size 10 either!  Still picking and choosing and finding limited choices that fit my particular body, but one of my favorite pants came from QVC - a Graver pant at 1/2 the price of another favorite from a local shop!

Now days anyone with a computer can find anything they want.  Lots of options exist for all of us!  I am very thankful for the variety.

I am pretty sure that Angel said on a show that those Dreamjeanes were coming back in the bootcut...they were just going to update them

I do a lot of my shopping online as well QVC.  There is a HUGE difference when you can see the clothes on a model that is moving versus a photo.

  My issue with QVC right now is the sizing.  It is so inconsistent within different brands AND within the same brand, AND within the same item but different colors . I find the returns so frustrating .

If QVC only catered to small sized people, they would go out of business... I see all kind of models... super skinny, average and large. I do not understand the OP's problem.

Trying to be objective -- Models are varied sizes on QVC and clothes range covers more sizes than brick and morter stores. I'm a 12/14. Never offended by the smaller models. Appreciate petite pants, when I need them. More petite options than stores.

I understand the posters complaint......the largest sizes they usually show is mainly XL and occassionally a size 1X....they never show a 2X or 3X......that would be like only showing a size XS or S  and not a size M or L in regular sizes.....just because they throw in a XL or 1X(rarely) in the mix sometimes....there always seems to be a overabundance of XS, S, ................

So i totally understand....and skinny jeans in the larger sizes aren't that complimentary....i usually wear a XL myself so i know...............so i hope everyone looks at it from both sides..............i think the thing that gets to ME

more then anything is having 90% of the models be 5'10"

tall....even the few plus size models are that tall....lately they have brought in a few petite size models which have been a help....but nothing like a 1X petite size.....only XS

S or 1 med size petite model i have seen.....they should show more 5'4" - 5' 6" models....average height .....i just don't see that many 5' 10" women walking around as an average size shown for women......

I am a plus size and I think QVC does a GREAT GREAT JOB.  I am old enough to remember when only ONE....ONE ...Store sold plus sizes....ROMANS via mail order catalogs.

We plus size are so BLESSED to have QVC, HSN, all the varous vendors....As a plus size, I can get clothes anywhere....target, old navy, talbots, macys etc. 

If a person is over a 3X then the best place is other vendors but QVC does a great job.  Also I remember HSN used to sell 4X and 5X about 20 years ago and they had to stop, I don't know if the items were selling.

As far as appearance in clothes, it is a personal taste issue. Some people like more fitted clothes, others like loose clothes.  The model's job is to show the item, a person does not have to wear it like that.

QVC is great and I'm tell you I THANK GOD every day for QVC!!!

I'm tired of QVC catering to the thin, skinny people.  If you're fortunate to be one of those people that's great - I'm happy for you.  However, some of us have larger builds and can't fit into those styles - like the skin tight skinny leg jeans that they keep showing. Even on some of the models, they look horrible in them.  I have large thighs and the only jeans that fit me were the Dream Jeanes boot cut that were discontinued.  QVC start thinking of all sized people!

While someone said that QVC sells sizes up to 3X, that doesn't mean that a style will look good on someone just because QVC offers that size.....I'm a medium and some of the styles look awful on me... a peblum styled top from Issac made me look like I was ready to go to the hospital maternity ward to deliver.....and your right leggings don't look good on all body types...OY!!!   I've caught to a little WARNING SIGN--BUYER BEWARE....when I see a clothing style and only the models that are XXS are showing an item that's big red WARNING--..I know that item would look awful on a size medium on up.....and that's why other sized models werent chosen to present it........
