I can not understand why QVC doesn't bother to fix the size charts on clothing for the specific garment measurments. When almost every review is saying runs large or size down or runs small order up it makes sense to me to measure the garments & redo the charts. It would save so many customers on returns. Maybe it would help your exchanges & slow shipping. I really can't depend on yhe charts size anymore. I have stopped ordering unless I already have an item & might want another color etc.

@DAD Garment measurements will always be off slightly. They can vary depending where the garment is in the stack being cut or the relative humidity in the plant any given day. I check them on every item I buy and find them overall to be amazingly accurate. I almost never return anything due to fit. They measure a random sample, there's no way they can measure every one.

I must admit that I have rarely, if ever, used a QVC size chart. Once I figure out a "size" from a certain vendor, then I usually continue to order that same size for a good fit. I ALWAYS watch the videos to see if a garment looks loose or tight, and may change my order based on the way I see the clothes drape on the model and the host's body. I also think the fabric used can have an impact on the fit!
Denim & Co, Isaac, Bob Mackie, LOGO have been incredibly reliable in their sizes and I have rarely returned.
I do agree that women have very different bodies, and it is difficult to find one designer to fit everybody well!

I have only purchased from D&Co. and find their sizes for me to be spot on and consistent.

@FancyPhillyshopper Are you aware that the actual measurements are listed for each garment? I find there can be quite a difference in some lines. Martha Stewart, for instance, usually runs large in the bust. These measurement are where it says to "click" at the end of the text describing the garment.

What I find really hard to believe is that one size can be 1/2" different in waist, chest, etc. and that they really make a size 1/2" different. For example, they will say that an XL is 1/2" smaller than a 1X. Do you really believe that they make the 1X just 1/2" larger in all measurements than the XL. Nooooooooo.
If you believe that, I've got a bridge to sell you!

I do believe there can be a half inch difference. Its all figured out by computers now days.
