TLC has announced that its long-running series WHAT NOT TO WEAR has been renewed for an 8th season. Each week, resident fashion experts Stacy London and Clinton Kelly ambush a fashion victim nominated by family and friends and offer them a $5,000 shopping spree in NYC in exchange for their old wardrobe. The end result is a life-changing makeover inside and out. Currently in production, Season 8 is slated to premiere in October 2010 and will air a total of 26 episodes.
WHAT NOT TO WEAR averages 1.4 million P2+ viewers.
WHAT NOT TO WEAR is produced by BBC Worldwide Productions for TLC.
