Can anyone explain why J Brown and J Bice didn't want to give measurements?  I seriously cannot think of a reason.  And what happened to the chest measurements on screen...do they still do that or not (I rarely watch)??  Makes no sense to me.

@MacDUFF,  Everyone's not fraction forward.

I don't think they knew how to use a tape measure with all those pesky vertical lines... is that an 1/8",a 1/4" or a 1/2"?

Having to go online to get measurements is no help to persons who do not own computers.

I still don't understand why they can't have this vital information streaming across the bottom of the screen.

when the Q started they presented garments that fell into their standard measurements so that you knew that if you wear a M according to that chart, you would wear M in every line they showed.  every once in a while, maybe with a new designer, they would say this is not a QVC "fit."   but they have abandoned that standard - so measurements on the web site are so important. since hosts don't help out on this, i mainly shop from the web site -  don't need the hosts. i just like the measurements and the look of the fit of the garment on the models on the video.  this means i don't really "watch" the channel.

@ms traditional @AUNT B  @Brigitta @MacDUFF Well Jayne Brown had a successful campaign to do away with on air measurements....I guess it cut into her joke telling, personal story time and talking about Facebook time ... Although there are a few GOOD hosts, like Leah Williams & Carolyn Gracie that still occasionally provide the garment measurements.......kudos to them.  But I remember one time an on air caller even asked if QVC could please do measurements on air or perhaps put them on the screen and Jayne got a bit snippy with her .....

What's interesting is you can't even trust the website measurements-- I once ordered a top online that was supposed to be 29" but turned out to be actually 26" ..... go figure!!!  And good luck on the videos sometimes they don't even work so you can't count on those........

I used to buy some of my clothes from QVC, but due to inconsistent sizing even within the same manufacturer, and uncompetitive prices and no return of original shipping I'm shopping locally for clothes now.....
