What not to Wear
Stacy London and Clinton Kelly host this popular makeover show. A person is nominated by family and friends and if selected gets an all-expenses paid trip to New York City; wardrobe advice and consultations by London and Kelly; $5,000 to purchase a new wardrobe (since part of the catch is that the old wardrobe is thrown away); a new hairstyle courtesy of stylist Nick Arrojo and a new look courtesy of make up artist Carmindy.
