Why no petite TSV?

I would love to buy the Logo dress but it's way too long for 5'2"!!!

I agree. I just heard Lori say this dress is perfect for everyone. I would need a petite, or the style would overwhelm my 5’ 3” frame. Midis cut me off in the wrong place. Shorter or longer work but not mid-calf. I do like the style and fabrics. If popular, it might return in another configuration. Enjoy if it fits your look. 😀

Exactly!...I just logged in to say the same thing. I'm 5 1 1/2" and no way I'd get this...the picture of the 5'2" model is an awful length and look on her..dowdy, frumpy. And don't insult me by telling me it looks great and if you think it's too long "belt it"...I would not belt this dress...wrong look completely for it. Is it oo expensive, too much trouble, not enough pay off to do petites? Once again, we lose out...or...save the money. Though for LOGO...it's pretty and decent price...her tops are often at least $30-40 more. Not sure how the fabric is but style is cute, tho I am always a little iffy, anyway, about that type hemline. Oh well. Nobody sells enough petites.

ps. Just noticed they are calling it "maxi", which it is not, to try and cover that no petite thing. 😏

I have to agree with you , I ordered but now I'm wondering if the length will just be all wrong , I'm 5' 2" and I do t want yo look frumpy!!! Why is it so hard for QVC lines to offer petites 😡. ???? Some lines do where others just state wear a higher heel, yah right !!!😼

I predict that this item will get a lot of returns. It's one thing to admire pretty fabrics but quite another when it's designed into a Victorian looking piece that no one wears. I know of no one who wears ankle length dresses anymore. There's a lot of hype over this TSV but really one should take a look at where it hits Ms Bennet who is 5'5. It is way too long for her, imo and think that will tell the story on how it will look on you if you are her height or shorter.

I totally agree with you. I am 5'2" also. I think it is really cute but that length would look horrible on me. It didn't even look good on Lori and she is an example of a petite. I think she missed out on quite a few sales for this reason. When will they get it.

I find it insulting when they say it is perfect for everyone! Do they think we are stupid? It is designed for someone 5'6" ish, that is how it is intended to look so don't try to convince short people it is fine for them; its not!

It always make me laugh when as a sales pitch for clothing which will be too long for shorter women, the hosts and sometimes the vendors will say if worn with heels the length will be fine. Wearing heels doesn't make a dress or pants, which are too long hit the wearer in the right place to give the garment the appearance of fitting properly. Heels may keep the garment from dragging on the ground, but that isn't the same thing as good fit. Also, the customer may be someone who never wears 4-inch heels even if they are platform wedges. It is amazing that the buyers simply don't order everything in a least a small quantity of petite sizes. If they asked for it the vendors would be happy to comply.

Did they show the dress on a petite model?I didn’t notice one but I only briefly tuned in.

ITA- I really do like the dress but I’m not going to compromise and buy something that I know will not work for me. I’m a petite and if Lori can’t accommodate me- I’m not buying. The hosts and Lori are ridiculous in saying it will work for everyone.
