@ShortyLugNut  It depends on the availability of the item. I know that if a color is limited they are not suppose to wear it.

Can you see David doing clothing shows - whisking models offstage the second the item they're wearing sells out.

I think they pick the the color they want to wear, otherise they wouldn't all only wear the black option.  I find it annoying when host after host when the present the same item only wear the black option.  It doesn't really show how the other colors look on a body which would be  helpful.  Black is not the only color QVC sells but you usually can't tell form the hosts, except Rachel

@ShortyLugNut   I have heard on non-clothing shows like ITKWD the host and / or vendor saying something like I see you got the memo about the color to wear for today.

@rockygems123 I don't think they mean a literal memo on what color to wear. This is a common saying when people dress alike. My coworker said it to me this morning when she came in the office. We both have on similar white eyelet shirts and jeans. When she saw mw she said "I see we got the memo on white shirts and jeans today".

@cjm61   I took the tour, too, a very long time ago.  I thought it was very informative and a lot of fun.  I remember walking the catwalk that's above one of the sets.  I remember seeing the Vitamix guy, Jan Mueller, changing his shirt!!  We were told to be quiet, of course.  I looked around in the little store they had in the Lobby and only bought myself a cute little silvertone QVC keychain that looked like a little gift bag.  It's tucked away with some other little special things I have in a stash.  Do you remember what they said about employee discounts?  For the life of me, I've tried and tried to remember, and I thiiiiiink they said it was 40%.  That was then, who knows if I heard correctly or if it's the same now.

:-)))

@BarbiHollywood Yes, wasn't the tour fun. If memory serves me correct it was 40% but they receive a bigger discount at Christmas, I think an additional 10%.

@cjm61   Hi!  So you seem to recall the same thing I do so we must be correct.  Imagine getting that much of a discount?  Now it makes sense when we hear all the hosts say they're getting two of something or watching Amy Stran do her unboxing videos!  She orders quite a bit of stuff, but with that much of a discount, why wouldn't she??!!!  (Do you follow her on FB?  She posts little videos of her opening her packages and showing it to us.  It's fun.  I like Amy so I enjoy it.)

@BarbiHollywood I believe I am a walking advertisement for QVC and HSN, , already. But, wow, if I was a host I would truly own 3x more I'm sure.

I like Amy also but I do not do FB or any other social media. I'm only on this one. And I also believe many hosts are truthful regarding what they own. I am not convinced they actually order something when they "say" to the producers, order me one or I will order when I am off air.
