...that I need to see an item modeled by a plus size model and you've (QVC) failed me.  It would have been nice to see Item #A351446 Joan Rivers Buffalo Check Midi Skirt modeled by one of your lovely plus size models.  Love the skirt but concerned about how it would look on a 3X frame.  I really don't want to order and then have to return.

There's probably a reason for that.

It was modeled by the plus size model Chondra (spelling).  She was wearing the blue check.  I believe they said she was in a 1X.

Yes, Misandra was wearing the blue check and wears a 16-18

@achyrelle @IdahoGram  Any thoughts on how that print looks on a larger woman?   Thank you.

I love a good Buffalo check, but I feel this skirt looks like a tablecloth on Jen and all of the models; the combination of the size of the checks, the fullness from the pleats, and the mid-calf length is simply not flattering.

A gathered skirt is very unflattering on a person with ample hips, not to mention what those checks would do.

I think its a cute skirt.  If you like it and you feel comfortable in it go for it.  Life is too short to worry about what others think.

Missed the 1X model, but Jacqui looked so nice in the khaki, but it was a subdued color.  I think she wears L -  XL, 14-16, same as Carolyn Gracie.  

 

I wear size small and afraid the skirt and pattern would add pounds, so I didn't buy it even though I think it's cute.

i agree if it's something that you love, and if you are comfortable doing so that you should wear it and disregard the opinions of others. 

 

i am 70 and most ladies my age say that they never wear sleeveless tops because they don't like displaying the upper arm.  while i wear a lot of elbow sleeve tops,  i love the way a sleeveless top looks on me too, and so i wear them anyway, and my upper arms look like those of a 70 year old lady.
