Why is Taylor the only bra model?

Any time there is a intimtates segment it is always her. They used to have many intimates models, now its just her or none at all like a mannequin.  

 

Why so few models nowadays? All fashion shows are down to 1 or 2 ladies, or the host models. On Q2 there are no models period, everythings pictures.

 

Are they so broke that they can't afford models? When I turn on HSN they have many models on set, and never use stock footage.

 

Would just like to see more bra models besides Taylor and I doubt many people are shaped like a mannequin. Personally I'd like to see petite/bustier models like myself on air for bras. Plus you don't get much info from pictures, show us how the back fits. 

 

Maybe shes the only model I see because qvc is phasing out intimates. As breezies is the only brand shown on tv. Don't know why its so popular, read many people always return them. What happend to jockey, wacoal, or all worthy? I might see a sports bra once in a while, but I want lingerie. Theres so little to choose from now.

Intimates are sold everywhere. Buy where they have what you want. If Q carried other brands, they'd cost more than going to other retailers, as is Q's norm.

Funny, but the bras I've seen on air lately have all been brands other than Breezies.

I have also seen Jacinth modeling bras.  Maybe they don't have to or maybe there's a little something extra in their check if they do.

 

Taylor is well endowed so she is a perfect model to show support. 
Jacinth has a great figure and so she is a perfect lingerie model too.

@nikkikern @  I have always thought the vendors hired the models and brand ambassadors. Is Intimates a brand of QVC? If not it not QVCs doing.

 

This is my assumption. I dont work at QVC and I dont think anyone, who does not,  can answer your question with any certainty.

@nikkikern   QVC sells Jockey bras, Cuddl Duds, Evelyn & Bobbie in addition to Breezies

 

i think Taylor is absolutely beautiful regardless of her ability to model intimates.  

do you have information that the Q is phasing out intimates or that they're broke?

It's been said on shows that QVC does not hire the models.

 

They work for an outside modeling agency.

QVC hires the models from Joy Talent Agency.

Re: Why is Taylor the only bra model?

HSN only has Rhonda Shear, so far as I have seen.  Does that mean they have no selection of intimates or they are going under? I do not like 5 models all out on set, for any product, it is usually irrelevant as I have noted on these boards because not one person is "like me". I do not need someone modeling underwear and bras in particular, they don't do it at brick and mortar stores, and lingerie is very personal for fit and style. I tried Brezees once and their styles are too large. I see Jockey on every once in a while on Q and I like their bras, but only buy when on sale. They have never been on "a lot" but have plenty of options Q online so I am not sure why the concern.  

 

Personally, Q has better models. The stylists on HSN really squeeze a number of the ladies into clothes too small, mostly pants, moreso than the Q and that may impact my judgement though.

They probably have fewer models because they don't give too much information on the size of the model.  They just want someone to model.  Also the brand may be limited on what sizes they have so they find a model that can wear that size.  I actually find my bras on Amazon.  I am bigger chested and I have found that Elomi carries a variety of sizes and color.
