TLC Is Ending Hit Makeover Show What Not To Wear

What Not To Wear is ending this year after 10 seasons on TLC. The makeover show is the network’s longest running primetime series of all time. TLC general manager and executive VP Amy Winter says it is “the right time to end the series,” which stars Stacy London and Clinton Kelly as the experts and advisers to those in need of fashion help.

“Stacy and Clinton have also become two of the most sought after fashion experts and TV personalities in the industry. We’re so proud to have had the two of them along with Carmindy and Ted as the glam squad behind this fan-favorite show, and the final episodes will definitely be a celebration of this monumental run,” Winter adds.

London says the show change her life. “I’ve learned so much from all of our contributors over the years. I hope we touched them as much as they touched me. I hope we touched our viewers. (I certainly see our rules in practice every day!) It feels like the end of an era and I look forward to my next chapter,” she says in a statement. “I will always cherish the time I spent on WNTW and be eternally grateful to TLC for a great co-host, amazing crew and an awesome program.”

Kelly adds, “When I got the job, I told everyone I knew that we’d probably do ten episodes, get canceled and I’d go crawling back to my old job in magazine publishing. So, I’m more surprised than anyone that we’ve lasted this long. At first I thought the essence of the show was making snarky remarks about people’s outfits, but as it turns out, WNTW is about taking stock of who you are and communicating that non-verbally to the rest of the world. That’s incredibly empowering.”

The final episodes will begin airing in July.
