Garment Measurments

You are so correct about sizing and measurements. I buy a lot of clothing and you a have to guest with sizing and returning are getting to costly.

The best way a company can save on returns is to simply provide what the patrons are asking for up front. what’s so difficult about stating G A R M E N T measurements, as opposed to the hsn size guide, which does me no favors.

The hosts will often say what size they are wearing and ask the models what size they are wearing. Be observant and notice how overly tight the garment is on the model or host. If it is pants you are trying to buy, notice the once or twice the model turns around so semi-show the backside.

Notice if everyone is wearing a jacket or long sweater on top that covers the backside and they don’t show it. Do you see pulling or those wrinkles across the thigh? You can tell how think or thick the fabric if you observe the fit.

If they are not showing the front and back fully, then I assume it is not a garment I will be happy with the size or fit or fabric.

With tops, is everyone wearing a jacket or sweater over it? Or do they show the armholes, the back, and can you see bulges or the bra?

It appears to me that what the host and models on HSN say is their size is often a size too small to look flattering. I wonder why they don’t show the backside in a longer look with the top pulled up to show the waist like they used to. When they don’t show the garment fully, I don’t usually purchase it. These “rules” help me decide to purchase and decide what size I need. Debbie D is an example of clothing that fits properly.
