Overview

Friends and family members nominate a candidate that they consider poorly dressed and ask the show to make over the "fashion victim." Fashion Police Stacy London and her partner ambush the candidate and make them an offer-- they are given a $5000.00 budget for a new wardrobe, which they must purchase in New York City boutiques over the course of two days, but only on the condition that they allow Stacy & her partner to critique, and in most cases throw out, their existing wardrobe.

Overview

Jeanne's idea of fashion is to match, so if she's in blue from head to toe, she thinks she's right in vogue. Stacy and Clinton have to get this Californian safety manager to realize that matching is not a fashion statement. What she needs is to start wearing clothes that fit properly and that will flatter her curvy proportions. She also needs to discover colors that work with her pale complexion and green eyes. Hairstylist Nick Arrojo has to tame Jeanne's shapeless mass of hair, and get rid of the roots. Makeup artist Carmindy has to give Jeanne a look that she feels she can wear for work and to party in, and Jeanne wants help in hiding a tattoo she has round her ankle so that she can wear skirts to the office.
