Mude o Meu Look

The format of the show is actually pretty clever. I could see liking it if not for one thing- the hostess. Despite her correct English, and stuffy demeanor, Finola Hughes exhibits some of the worst manners, and mean spirited attitude I have eve seen. Shows like 'Punked' are much more kind to those they prank then Finola is to the already somewhat meek contestants. She eggs on a boyfriend to tell his girlfriend that she must dress to make the other men jealous of him, or he doesn't want to be with her. She insinuates that people who wear black are depressed. She makes it seem like it's normal for people to ridicule someone who doesn't wear high heels and tight clothing most of the time. In my experience, you are far more likely to be hassled if you can't bend over safely. If you have children, DO NOT let them watch this show. It teaches them to be judgmental bully's, and boring dressers, all at once. The show isn't even informative. The clothing collections are not cutting edge, by any means. They are clearly aimed at a suburban comfort zone. Which also would be fine, if the hostess didn't pronounce her judgments with the spirit of a true bully.

I think this show is great. The previous commenter said that Finola Hughes had a harsh attitude at times towards the person getting the makeover. I think she seems friendly for the most part. Finola is British and she has a touch of that in her personality. I think it is refreshing to have a sort of different personality hosting this show. I love to see the makeover because the person usually looks so much better. At least they are not having tons of plastic surgery like 'Extreme Makeover' The makeover is all done naturally. The fashion style on the show is nice. A lot of the clothes are really cute. Some of them are not but some styles are not for everyone. Check it out of you want to watch a fun entertaining show.

I just started watching this show. I thought it was a new thing. I didn't realize it had been on for several years. I thought it was going to be something I would enjoy watching because I love fashion and makeover shows but Finola is a HORRIBLE hostess. She acts so fake & rigid. No empathy or warmth towards her guests. She acts so staged like she is reading a script and is very uncomfortable in her role. This in turn makes the guest feel very uncomfortable. The whole vibe is scripted and fake. Unlike, What Not To Wear with Stacey and Clinton. Stacey is a little gruff and sassy at times but she has a warmth and compassion about her when the time is right. Anyway I like the idea of the show it just needs someone in there (a new hostess)and maybe director who can make the show flow. It's probably Finola's creation. If so she did good on that. Someone else with a little more tact and compassion just needs to be in the forefront. Sorry Finola.

This show runs on adjacent stations and simultaneously with Howard Stern's program, and it's tough to tell which one is more insulting to women. Each episode, they take a young woman (who seems perfectly happy with how she looks) and give her an unwelcome, unwanted makeover, insulting the way she currently looks and actually destroying some of her favorite articles of clothing.

The most common "complaint" about the woman's style is that she doesn't "look like a woman enough," as if to suggest that women should never wear athletic gear, sweatpants, or baggy clothes even when working out. (I guess exercise and sports are just for guys, according to the show.) I'm male, but if four people came into my house, insulted my clothing, and ripped up my sweatshirt in front of me, I'm mostly sure I'd throw them out of a three-story window. The women are made to give up their comfortable clothes and instead put on things they find too revealing or wrong for them, including cleavage shirts, short skirts, and spike heels, all in the name of making her look "more feminine." (I suppose a woman doesn't look like a woman unless dressed as a prostitute.) I personally think the women look better in the college t-shirts and jeans and well-worn sneakers, but the more important point is that THEY liked how they looked better that way, and are made to act like something they're not.

This show needs to be blown up ASAP.

This show takes (for some people) "ugly" dressed persons and turns them into every other person, but not themselves; by changing their style/ expression of themselves. They practically want every person to be dressed the same, trendy, and reject individuality and diversity of people's styles. It's like taking them into the factory and turning them into all the same dolls or robots, that should have no thinking of their own. They suggest that you should not be yourself, just because some other people won't like it. I think every person should have a right to express themselves, dress how he/she wants, and not wanting you do so, is everything that's wrong with this show. Not to mention the beauty is in the eye of beholder. And for me (for instance) the hostess is sometimes really ugly dressed herself and should not have a right to judge others and be rude, same stands for other botoxed stylists in the show. Like some others here mentioned – this is bullying in a nutshell.

I apologize for not perfect English, I'm not a native speaker.
