It was the early 2000s, and cable TV was abundant with reality makeover shows. In a suburban midwest basement, two teenage girls watched in awe as Stacy London and Clinton Kelly showed us how to be fashionable…or as fashionable as you could be in 2006, when What Not to Wear season 5 episode 3 “Jenny C” aired.
Nineteen years later, we’re headed back to the 360 mirror to talk about fashion, feud, and what does Futuristic Victorian Pin-Up style even mean.
Also in this episode: Carmindy and her signature taupe smokey eye, tailoring (and Tayloring), and a lot of guff about tweed slacks.
Note: This episode includes discussion of bodies and body image, as it’s hard to talk about fashion (especially from this era) without touching on those topics.
