[Jacki Clark]

Hi Glen - Have been looking at the QVC site in America and I see that they have the Modern Soul Ribbed Jacket with Coconut Buttons in a Burgandy - is there any possibility they we could have some over here in the UK along with some more of the jacket styles that they do??? Thanks so much - love watching you why are you not on more??? Jacki C

Hi Glen,

Why are QVC failing to stock emu boots in mens sizes, I think it's a great shame as they are very pupular amongst men as well as women, and stocking the mens sizes which emu do would be a great idea,

[Mark Webb]

Hello Glenn,

Why are QVC not stocking the EMU boots in mens sizes? I think it's very dissappointing that you can get them from EMU directly off the web but QVC are ignoring the demand.

Please can you get the buying team to start stocking them.

I own some emu boots the medium stinger (originally a mans boot!) and I love mine...

Good Morning Glen

Yes, I agree with Barbara there should be more men's fashion on QVC but of course it's what is popular why have it on when it's not going be successful. Having said that they could more than there is now, perhaps a leather jacket which have been on once in every blue moon or a Kim & Co T shirt which sold out. On QVC in the States there was a brilliant Brad Bayou men's collarless leather jacket in soft leather very Thierry Mugler who just happens to be one of my fave raves but why not have the relatively newish Tom Ford's menswear collection some of it is astounding, across between Ralph Lauren, St Laurent and vintage Richard James all which I'm a big fan of,it's only £4,000 for silk robe and a £1,000 and odd for a pair of pyjamas all on 4 easy pay of course.

Hi Glen

Whats happened to the sizing in Centigrade and Casual & Co?
I buy 2XL sometimes 3XL, but now these sizes have changed and gone down about 2 sizes, therefore all the latest TSV are too small.
I am sure all the larger Ladies feel the same as they are being left out.

Hello Glen,
love all your shows, your advice is always up-to-date, practical and suits all ages, I personally find difficulty buying for myself, since I turned 50 I have altered drastically in shape, I have always been top heavy, great when I was younger!!, but now I have increased to 38dd bust, but still size 12 bottom half, I am 5'6 tall, and not happy with my shape, I am not sure what to look for, I hate looking frumpy, I do like lower neck lines, but do not want to look tarty, any advice would be greatly appreciated,
thank you, from rose simmons, Rotherham,s.yorkshire

Hello Glen, Please is it possible for you to ask SLIM 'N' LIFT if they would make the invisible seam set of 2 HIGH WAISTED SHORTS (139 937) without the legs. My daughter and I buy the above item but cut the shorts off as we can't wear with the shorts and don't need them. We would be very grateful thanks glen. I agree with you that you need the right foundation under a garment to make it look right. Slim 'N' Lift have it right but for us we could do with the choice of no shorts, but the HIGH WAISTED. THANKS.X

Good morning Glen, A special request from my Husband, when can he expect to see FASHION FOR MEN! He is sure there is a market for mens fashion on QVC as a lot of men do not enjoy shopping or always have the time.

[Lynda]

Hi Glen
Am very pleased to hear that petite ranges may be on their way. Meanwhile, I understand that 7/8th trousers are hot for this summer. Can I wear them as full length given am only 5' 2"? Or would it spoil the design cos they would look like 7/8ths on a very short person? Am size 14 so not a skinny petite (wish I was lol).
Enjoy your shows and always take note of your advice - keep up the excellent work.

Hello Glen

I too have the above problem and although I hate complaining, I have ordered numerous coats, tops etc in XS size, all to be sent back as they were to big for me on the shoulders etc, PLEASE PLEASE can QVC start a petites range as only being 5ft2" and size 8-6 it can be very difficult to find anything that I really love too fit ....
so come on QVC you cater for the fuller figure so dont forget your petite customers out there !! PLEASE

Hi Glen.

I'm another 'shorty' being just over 4'11" and so find trousers and skirt lengths on qvc a bit of a problem. Still need a larger size overall though at 16-18. Kim's crops are marginally short for a full length trouser. A 25" inside leg would be perfect. I've heard viewers request this on air from time to time so I know I'm not alone.

Sleeve lengths on knitwear is also an issue. I've had to return items that are simply massive, even on your long lean models! Still, you have a good selection of 3/4 as well, particularly Artscape and Eastern Spirit and Style Inc. Keep up the good work.

[Denise Thomson]

Hi Glen,

I am 5ft 3 and a size 8/10 and have twice ordered jackets in XS as I loved the look of them, but I had to return them as they were too big. Please could you do a petite range as I am missing out on so many quality fashionable items from Centigrade?

[barbara Chalmers]

best wishes
Barbara

Glen, don't know if you can help me? I've been put off buying clothes from QVC as I'm only 4'10", size 8-10.(depending on shop!) During the day, I work at a pre-school, normally wearing jeans and an unglamourous sweatshirt! However, weekends still tend to wear jeans and t-shirt/sweatshirt or jumper just for ease. I like to feel comfortable and cosy and like most women, try to hide the bum, belly and thighs!! When I do try on skirts, they tend to make me look 'dumpy'!! Any suggestions to get out of a 'rut' and aim to become a super trendy 50 yr old for December 2009!!!!!!

[JESSICA]

hello Glen

Do you think Centigrade might be persuaded to do a petites range, or go to XXS/XXXS?
I ordered a centigrade coat in XS which I loved the look of recently and it was huge on me.
Im only 5'2" and a size 8 (edging to a 6) so the proportions were all wrong for me...

Heres hoping anyway, as theres some great stuff I would like to buy :)
