Reality TV Hits Retail

fred segal reality show.jpgBravo can’t get their fashion fill.

They’re hard at work on a retail docu-series amid the famed halls of Santa Monica’s Fred Segal.

The show, the network’s third fashion series, will focus on the competitive nature of retail in such a high end setting and believe us, in a store like that, with its customers and commission and cutthroat salespeople, there will be more drama and fighting than Project Runway rolled into Stylista with a dose of ANTM.

A Bravo exec said, “Fred Segal is a legendary retail haven…the fashionistas who work, shop and gossip at the store promise to have arresting, entertaining, colorful personalities and lives.”

Meanwhile, will customers be cool with cameras outside their dressing room? Or will this give the Ron Hermans of the world a boost in business?

I live for "Say Yes to the Dress". This sounds like it may be a little like that.

It's a perfect fit. The reality shows that air now are totally scripted and filled with lies and half truths. Retail works exactly the same way. ALL LYING and no truth. False sales numbers, you name it. This will save the writers the headache of having to make up stories. The whole premise of reality in a store is a falsehood. Can't wait.
