Funny how fashions are going back to boot leg and wide leg and skinny is going out.  I have always been a fan of a slight boot cut.  More balancing out I think. 


I'm sure glad to see the skinny leg go too.  Out in the stores they've been gone since last year.  It seems to take QVC a minute to give up the old styles.   I've always preferred bootcut.

The tuck doesn't bother me as much as the hiding behind the bags/purses does.  In addition, omitting what sizes the host and models wear doesn't help me make a purchase.

 

  Hsn does a much better job of not only giving information but showing how an item looks without covering it up.

I never understood why Leah almost always has a bag hanging over shoulder..

I don't like the half tuck on anyone, but I do think you need to be thin to pull it off. It is not a look that looks good on most in MY opinion!

The sweater caught my attention until I noticed the collar. Why would Leah add that to it? That collar and the fabric (not all cotton) kept me from looking any further and/or considering purchasing it.

Leah's fashions seem to have too many fru-fru's to hide extra weight. What about those of us with nice figures who have never needed/wanted to hide our slender shapes? Have never cared for her big styles . . . yet decades ago she was so well-dressed!

@Sunshine Kate 

 

Your description of the tuck is a good one.  I also have thought that it looks like the wearer got up early in the morning, was still groggy while getting dressed and just was careless with her appearance.

 

In many paper catalogs tha I have been receiving, the tuck look seems to be fading, going away.  Good riddance.  I don't think it flatters anyone.

I only see the half-tuck done on the Q.  Nowhere else.  It's not as "cute" or "fashionable" as Amy and the rest of the hosts seem to think. . . at least in my opinion. Cat Wink

It's a sloppy look.

 

I haven't seen this look anywhere locally.

 

Only thru QVC.

 

Unkempt look.

Lots of women and retail sites half tuck, for years.  There are even tutorials.

 

I think it can look very nice, or very sloppy.

 

QVC is by no means the leader of this trend.

I hate boot cut, wore them 70 years ago as a teenager. The were called Pallisio pants . Made me look short and wide, and I weighed 95 pounds. walk behind someone wearing them and they look short and wide, with the pants swinging as they step. I am buying every stright leg I can get. Hope this fad goes away. and now even worse are wide leg crop.
