All of QVC <em>clothes</em> models I would think should represent all various body types/shapes and <em>age</em> groups of the common female. By <em>age</em> groups, I want to see a few models between the ages of <em>50-99</em> yrs who do not have perfect shapes modeling clothes. Not some <em>20</em> yr old 90lb mannequin wearing rubber stretched waist ban outfit, skinny jeans or leggings.

When the clothing vendors & the hosts talk about what these clothing items (pants in particular) can control & hide, QVC should have models with these same type of problems.

Hiding and/or pushing in your gut (pot belly) - prove it with a <em>LIVE</em> model showing <em>LIVE</em> before & after.

Lifting your butt - prove it with a <em>LIVE</em> model. Prove it to me with a <em>LIVE</em> model.

I do not want to see animated videos or still photos of what these clothing items can do. I want to see this with a <em>LIVE</em> model who actually has the defaults that the clothing items are suppose to control and/or hide.

<em>Live</em> models for the Genie Bras are an exception. <br />

I do not want to see a normally flat belly model wearing a spandex or rubber stretched waist ban outfit that controls bulges or some other default.

I have only seen 2 maybe 3 plus size looking models (who never seem to wear plus sizes ), both of them tall. I have yet to see a short plus size model, a model with a gut, thick thighs, model wearing plus sizes, etc.

I've only been watching QVC for 3 months now. What I wrote above is just what I have observed in those 3 months.

For most women, seeing a model wearing an outfit will give you a general idea as to how it looks on a human ..... there's really no way they can provide body doubles for every body type.

BTW, it's not waist "ban" .... it's waist BAND.

Maybe QVC should at least try to have models of all body types. One of the reasons I have not purchased any clothing items from QVC is that I am very confused about their sizes. Especially their pants. I cringe when a host or vendor asks a tall plus size model what size she is wearing & she says small or even worse petite.

I am a perfect size 10 for pants & medium for tops in stores. Yet I noticed on QVC the hosts and/or vendors will FREQUENTLY state go up or go down a size. Why? Why can't the manufacturers make clothes true to size?

P.S. I used spell check for this post.

There are many factors that can cause clothing to vary in size. It's not just QVC; this happens in all lines. Aren't you glad they tell you? I've never, ever heard a tall model say she's wearing a petite. You have so many complaints, perhaps TV shopping is not for you?

Not for clothing that's for sure.
