Finally! Toni...a new model!

Watching the TSV pant today...not interested, but SO happy to see  a new model named TONI!  She is an older regular sized woman, and african american......   she is very pretty and has a normal shape that shows what this TSV would really look like.   Glad to see they didn't just use tall skinny 5'11 size XXS models for once!!!  Smiley Happy

Toni was around last early winter, but they almost always have a plus sized model along with smaller for D&Co clothes. I think the TSV makes Sandra look like a plus sized model,

I like Toni. She is frequently on the Tuesday a.m. Denim & Co show with Carolyn (and usually Gary).

Re: Finally! Toni...a new model!

Tony has been a model on QVC for quite a while.  She did seem to disappear for a brief time, maybe a vacation  but during this time she was on some promotional segments for them.   I also enjoy seeing her.  I think she is 5'6" and I always hear her say she wears a medium.

 

The report for 2017 says the average American woman wears a 16/18 and is 5' 3.8" tall.  I appreciate that QVC is finally getting a model closer to these figures.   I know some petite ladies, under 5" 2",  who would love to see petite models who wear at least a medium.  Trying to compare to a small or extra small petite model does not work.

 

Today's special value is in petite, regular and tall.   Wish they could do this more often.

Toni even did a promo for something where she spoke.  I'd guess that she's been there close to a year.  She often appears in the Tuesday morning D&C show.

There is a petite model named Taleah who wears a medium -- perhaps she will be in a show later today. It seems to me there is at least one more petite who is not an XXS, but I can't come up with a name right now!

@jonbon.  I think I saw her on a Cuddle Duds show some time ago.  If it is the same person she was 5' 3" and said she was wearing a small.   Probably the same person.  They wear different sizes according to the fit they want.

 

 Tonight Pam, usually wears a lg, said she had on an XL because she wanted a looser fit.  Another tall model said she had on a regular length pant, not tall.  The host had said she was wearing a tall.  The model explained that she has a long torso with regular length legs.  I wish the models could always let us know when they size up or down and why.  When seeing the information posted during the presentations I have made a list of sizing information on the models closest to my size and those I purchase gifts for.  I have always checked the garment measurements but this is not always accurate.   This plus the models speaking up with their size information for the current garment has helped me eliminate most all clothing returns.

Toni's been around for awhile. She is great, a everyday woman like most of us. Usually can see her every Tues on D&Co. She's great.

Re: Finally! Toni...a new model!

I've seen Toni a lot, and she's a great model. We don't need so many 5'10' XXS. Blond Rachel and Kulani are Petite models. Meridith used to be before her baby. (guess someone else snatched her up). There's another mature Petite model. I think her name is Sheila, blondish/gray hair. Also, there's a 5' dark hair Petite of average size.

Love to see average models that you can relate to more.
