I KNOW HOST LOVE TO WEAR BLACK, HOWEVER BLACK DOES NOT SHOW DETAILS OF CLOTHING.  PLEASE ALLOW HOST TO WEAR BLACK ONLY WHEN THEY ARE NOT SELLING CLOTHING.  THE HOST ARE ON CAMERA DURING MOST OF PRESENTATIONS, THEY SHOULD BE CATERING TO QVC CUSTOMERS BY WEARING COLORS THAT PROMOTE DETAILS OF CLOTHING THEY ARE SELLING.  JEN JEN, PAT AND ALL HOST THAT LOVE THEIR BLACK YOU ARE NOT DOING "YOUR" QVC CUSTOMERS, QVC OR DESIGNERS  ANY FAVORS BY WEARING BLACK.  HOST WHO ARE COLOR DEFICIENT IN WHAT COLORS LOOKS GOOD ON THEM PLEASE CONSULT WITH THE MANY QVC DESIGNERS, I AM SURE THEY WILL BE ABLE AND WILLING TO HELP YOU CHOSE COLORS THAT WILL FLATTER YOU.  AFTER ALL IS SAID AT THE END OF THE DAY QVC IN THE BUSINESS OF SELLING CLOTHES!!

THANK YOU

The hosts are aware that detail cannot be seen on black.  I very seldom see them wear it since they are conscious of this.  I don't consider this to be an issue at all.

This is a major issue.  Black is boring QVC and  prevents buying when details cannot be seen.

[Kachina624]

@grooms    They have to SELL black as it's in demand but do you often see hosts wearing it?  I dont.

@PAMELAB 

This thread is a little confusing .....  When did they stop having the garments being presented on hangers and racks?   

I haven't noticed any clothing shows where there aren't racks with the items presented on them, and at least one model.  

Yes, black is a default color for many, but I have never seen JUST a host wearing black and no other options in the show.

Of course, you can always look at the item number online, as well.

I dont think the hosts chose what they wear or the colors.  I believe that is up to the stylists.  And at times the sizes for the hosts.

There was a time that they had the models wearing black, sometimes all black.  Now that was aggravating and that is definitely the stylists choice.  Its not as bad as it was but it still happens on occasion.

Pat. She often wears black and I 've seen threads condemning her for it @Kachina624 . She had it on this morning. Could the OP's thread be a coincidence?

[LindaSal]

Yes, first person I thought of was Pat, every time I see her on air she is in black, maybe not ALL black but something she is wearing is black!

I thought that was what the models were for, as well as the clothing on the hangers where they can zoom in with the camera without zooming in on somebody's body parts.

High end department stores used to require sales women to wear all black so not to clash with the clothing they were showing their customer.  Unlike QVC salesperson they were there to showcase the clothing, not be the focal point, what a concept. 

This most likely is not the case anymore as we are much more casual.  Hosts in black don't bother me. 

Models should wear the clothing in various sizes and salesperson's demonstrate the features in a light color to show details.
