Oscar winning actress Charlize Theron announced this week she will be bringing the hit Israeli reality show 'Whose Closet is it Anyway?' to U.S. television viewers everywhere.
The show, known as “Ha’aron” in Israel, takes a unique perspective on how fashion and one's clothing affects how others view them. The question the show asks is, "What would happen if someone swapped your entire wardrobe with someone else's?"
In each episode, three women, each with a distinct style and a strong fashion sense, trade their entire closets and have to cope with each of the other women's wardrobes. Each “contestant” on the show has to change her entire look and try on styles that are totally different from her own, all while going about her usual routine. What does it feel like to walk in another woman's stilettos? Will her family like her new look? What will her boss have to say?
By optioning the Israeli series, Charlize Theron and her production company, Denver & Delilah are continuing the trend of Israeli television shows being adapted for U.S. audiences. Emmy award winning programs such as HBO's In Treatment and Showtime’s Homeland are among a host of Israeli shows that have been brought over to America in the past few years. In addition other American networks have also imported adaptations of Hebrew language series, including NBC, CBS, and The CW.
There's no word on when "Whose Closet is it Anyway?" will hit U.S. airwaves, so stay tuned for more details!
