While I am not a young woman (60's)  I feel the fashion lately has become very old. Not every woman of an older age wants to wear flowers, plaids, and even some  solids.  How about some youthful patterns and fabrics. Some of the fabrics are very heavy and stiff.  alos, I understand prices have gone up but paying 75.oo for a t shirt really?

While we are getting older we do not want our cloths to reflect . Perhaps my decades of shipping at the Q are over. You see to be catering to a different audience noe.

I agree that so much of their clothing is very frumpy. How about if they sold some quality classic pieces. Perhaps a long sleeve button front collared shirt. Those will never go out of style. They can be dressed up or down. I've been searching for one that's made of good material--not 100% polyester. One that's not see-though. If QVC offered one, I'd snatch up a few in an instant. How about some well cut dark slacks or jeans. Not those silly patch ones they had as the TSV a couple of days ago. Yes, quality clothes cost more, but they're worth the investment. Fast fashion wears out so quickly, so does it really save money?

I agree. To me, it's either bold prints and tie-dye with LOGO or too plain like Denim & Co. (even Issac). He used to make some gorgeous, snazzy, upscale pieces a few years ago. The quality has suffered and prices have risen.

If you haven't done so, you might check out some of the designers on HSN.  They cater to all ages, but I feel like they have more on-trend, stylish clothing.

@smoonj   You may want to try Talbots.  Well made classic styled clothes, great variety and their sales are fantastic.

@Sweet Kitties   I suggested this to the OP Talbots has lots of classic pieces, well made and well priced during their sales.

I agree with what you said about some of the clothing. But what I would like to know every once in a while I will be watching and a man comes on the screen and starts talking I just wonder why someone doesn't tell him that something is hanging out of his nose?

I don't see QVC moving more toward fitted clothing. It is harder to make, harder to plan the size distribution, harder for clients to order, and more returns. 

 

This is why there's a plethora of sleeveless dresses, despite the constant requests for sleeves--fewer points to fit.

I can't believe your comments.   If ever there was a place with a diverse selection of clothing, it's QVC, with something for every lifestyle and taste.  

 

Especially amusing was the comment about the clothes being stiff.  With all the loungewear, it's more like too much soft and mushy. I've seen nothing that looked stiff.

 

If someone can't find a pair of jeans,  within the huge selection of styles and colors they carry, the problem is not with QVC,  it's with YOU.
