They all seem to be wearing a size too small? It is the sort of garment that wouldn’t be worn fastened but needs to look as though it would.Is it because we are used to so many oversized looks? This in the usual tradition of Ruth’s offerings seems dated like something you discovered in the back of the wardrobe from years ago.Sorry if you like it & find it a useful addition to your wardrobe but I like to see a bit of style and design flair. Perhaps in my late 70’s I have been around to see it all before!? That goes beyond Ruth’s ‘with a twist’ aka bit of orange piping.

It is ridiculous to have all participants in the show unable to plausibly wear the jacket done up. But looking at the fit across the shoulders it's the right size. Clearly designed for women with zero boo-bage!
Aside from that, Ruth does not suit the way she is wearing her jeans, imo. It has drastically shortened the look of her legs.

The jacket looked on the small side. Both RL and Jilly wore Size 16, but didn't fasten it. If they had, it would have stretched to its limit around Ruth's bust and forget about Jilly managing to do it up around her hips. The sand/beige coloured one reminded me of the kind of coat a warehouse man would wear. Maybe that was the idea - utility jacket.
I watched some of the show and noticed she was selling a lot of jackets. How many jackets does the average woman own, I wonder. And where do they hang them, given that most houses/flats have limited cupboard space. Maybe women buy a jacket and get rid of a jacket to make space for the new one. It's so easy to get an accumulation of clothes that you halfway like and keep, but rarely wear. A brutal turnout is the answer, imo.
Gawd, just watched a few minutes of the TSV presentation. I swear Ruth Langsford thinks she's Yves Saint Laurent or someone his equal!! I this, I that. Honestly Ruth, enough! As everyone has already said, what's the point in a garment that doesn't fasten? I also would call it more of an overshirt than a jacket. And what's with "cold wash"? I've never washed anything on a cold wash, ever. I'm out.

Back in the day many men wore such jackets for work. We had very few clothes and possessions when I was a child and the day came when one of my sisters had to be kitted out to play a rat in a school play. The only thing my parents could provide for her costume was one of my dad's work jackets - the only rat in the universe branded with an "Esso" company logo.
Still mortified, 60 years later.

I would never buy a jacket that didn't fasten. I have never liked any of Ruth's stuff. The prices are ridiculous, seen better and cheaper at George at Asda.
Dear little rat. I can picture her.

Well, if you’re my little sister, too many is never enough….and you pay to keep them in storage and rotate them regularly. Madness, I know.
But, fair do’s, she always looks good.

Same here. As I always say they’ve never waited on a cold railway station or a draughty exposed bus stop.
I don’t possess a jacket unless you count my two thick fleeces and my padded coat as jackets. Always use cardigans n stead of jackets in the cooler months.
Had a manager once that wanted us to wear uniforms including a skirt and jacket (we worked in an office with no face to face contact with customers). None of us wanted this. The outfitters came down from the supplier with samples to try on. Two of us out of the 20 in the office were extra large. Well the largest standard size skirt they had might had fitted one of my thighs and when I tried the jacket, it split. My colleague had a 42G bust and the jacket had no chance.
The supplier offered to tailor make suits to fit us but it would have cost over £1500 each for two jackets, two skirts and five shirts. The total cost for the office would have been around £11k. Never did get approved and the manager was let go a few months later.

When she opened one of the bags, £99 I think, the front wall bent forward and she stuffed, yes stuffed, the shoulder strap in it but didn’t close the fastener. I like to see how easy/fiddly they are.
Read that she made 2 million last year from QVC

Everyone has the right to spend their money as they wish & we do have different taste.However I was in the industry for many years and have a detached view , it is not what I personally would wear, but what the market I was working for would like & that was respected.So that is how I view this range, it is OK but not groundbreaking and overpriced.There are also (from the reviews) sizing issues which they need to sort out.There are some nice pieces but I wouldn’t take the chance with the P&p / return costs

Hell of a contract she signed then ! Must be the easiest money she's ever made - a few meetings where others make the decisions and a few hours every few weeks stroking clothes on a hanger and waxing lyrical about them
I loved how she tried to convince us that if you buy a cheap stripy t shirt the stripes won't match up front and back, hers do of course, and that's why you have to pay a little bit lot more for them - What a loada cobblers Ruth!
