Format
Participants are nominated by friends, co-workers, or relatives. Some episodes involve self-nomination, such as special class reunions or mall nominations. In the latter, What Not To Use arranges a 360-degree mirror in various malls across the United States, allowing women to explain why they need fashion help. The early episodes feature both men and women; However, since the male transformation did not prove remarkable, all the episodes then featured women exclusively. Some episodes feature nominees and nominees chosen to make changes.
When a woman is chosen, the show secretly follows and records it for two weeks. Sometimes candidates will be asked to participate in "market research" by a camera crew who is actually a What Not To Wear crew who recorded a pre-makeover appearance for the show. Also, nominees sometimes get access to nominated cupboards to showcase special items of clothing that they consider very bad.
When reviewing the secret recordings, Stacy and Clinton will comment, in a sometimes spicy style, about why nominator clothes are not attractive ("mom jeans") or outdated (bought in the 1980s) and they will usually meet with nominees before a meeting. nominee. After that, the whole group will go to meet the soon-to-be surprising nominees. During a surprise visit, the candidate was offered a $ 5,000 Visa debit card (in later seasons the card was a $ 5,000 unbranded gift card) for the purpose of buying a new outfit if he handed all of his wardrobe to Stacy and Clinton and shopped under "rules" they (customized shopping guidelines for age, body shape, and profession). If the candidate accepts the terms of the offer, then Stacy and Clinton will give them a gift card and review the secret recordings with them. If he refused, nothing else was filmed and no show. Candidates are sometimes very reluctant to agree and should be reassured by Stacy and Clinton and the nominees.
After reviewing the secret recordings, the candidate was taken to New York City for a week of evaluation, shopping, and cosmetology and makeup. Throughout the week, candidates often claim he can not find the right clothes, he does not like his body, or he does not care what other people think.
On the first day, Stacy and Clinton will sort out the current nominations, and she will step into a 360-degree mirror to explain what she likes about her regular outfits and why she thinks they look good to her. After criticizing each outfit, Stacy and Clinton present a more "proper" outfit to the participants to help illustrate the "rules" for participants to follow when shopping for new clothes. Throughout the sorting process, most clothing is symbolically thrown into a large dustbin; However, they are actually donated to charities as long as they are not torn or damaged.
On the second day, the participants filmed their own shopping at various New York stores including Mexx, New York & amp; Company, Ann Taylor, Filene, Searle, H & amp; M, Bloomingdales, Macy's, and Montmartre. Stacy and Clinton watch videotapes and comment, for the benefit of viewers, whether participants follow the "rules" or not.
On the third day, Stacy and Clinton will surprise the participants, commenting on whether the previous day's purchases followed the "rules", and helped her with the rest of the shopping. If the participant does not follow the rules, the clothes may have to be returned.
On the fourth day, hairstylist Nick Arojjo, and then hairstylist Ted Gibson, and makeup artist Carmindy change the look of the participants. At this stage, Stacy and Clinton are absent.
On the fifth and final day in New York, attendees showcased her new outlook to Stacy and Clinton - in her three new outfits. Stacy and Clinton then commented on how her new look flattered her body and generally improved her appearance.
The last segment features a party in the participants' hometown, where he will showcase his new looks to friends and family, who will comment on how impressed they are and how happy he is.

"Clinton Kelly said," When I got the job I told everyone that I know that we may be doing 10 episodes, canceled and I will crawl back to my old job in magazine publishing So, I am more surprised than anyone we have survived so far.Initially I think the essence of the show make snarky comments about people's clothes, but as it turns out, 'WNTW' is about taking stock of who you are and communicating non-verbally to the rest of the world. It's very empowering. "
