I don't see Leah, Jayne, or Pat changing clothes nearly as often as some hosts. They do their jobs and let the models do their job. We all know Mary is a medium and Amy is an extra, extra small, so I have no need to see them play model. I happen to think the models do a great job although the stylists sometimes don't.

If I believed the sizes some of the hosts "claim" to be, I'd be a size small too.

The more bodies we can see wearing the clothes, the better in my opinion.  Isn't that the point of a live shopping channel?  I find it so much better than looking at a still picture.

 

If you find someone that resembles your body type, all the better, win, win!  I have and it helps me with sizing.

You got that right. Too many times I see hosts AND vendors squeezed into a size or two too small. What good does that do for viewers trying to get the right size?

One reason Hosts and vendors repeat things over and over, is for new people who drop in. People channel surf, or are late to a program.  Hosts are instructed to repeat certain things over for those viewers . Kathy Levine mentioned that in her book years ago. if you watch all day, or have watched show from beginning ,or a taped show, it may seem redundant. But ,we have to keep to drop-in viewers in mind.

The hosts modeling would be helpful…… except!!!!!!!!!!!
THEY DONT GIVE THEIR CORRECT SIZE. !

Especially when the host is standing next to a model who they say they wear the same size. Come on girls, not being truthful is no help to anyone.

I prefer watching the hosts show the clothing on the air.  


@Desertdi   That's because she's the Naomi Campbell of the Q.  Katia uses the Q stage like a Paris or Italian runway.

Here she is showng off Graver's "liquid knit."

So true @Mz iMac about Katia.  She is quite stunning and looks terrific in everything.

I've seen this as well. A recent show (don't remember the brand) the vendor was wearing her top in a S and she didn't look any bigger than Shawn, and of course SK was squeezed into her usual xxs or xs and thought the vendor looked much better in it than SK.
