I'VE GOT NOTHING TO WEAR shows viewers another way to go green by recycling what's already in their closet. Each half-hour episode focuses on one woman in the midst of a fashion meltdown and in conflict with her closet. Resident stylist Jorge Ramone and three design prodigies, under the guidance of designer George Simonton, have three days and little more than their creativity to recycle, reuse and rejuvenate the clothes already in her closet into a fabulous new wardrobe.

The I'VE GOT NOTHING TO WEAR fashion intervention begins when Jorge combs through the "victim's" current wardrobe and sorts out the items worth salvaging from the utter fashion crimes. The condemned couture is sent to designer George Simonton's "chop-shop," where three design prodigies cull, rip, redesign and sew the pieces into something totally new. An outdated pair of slacks might become an evening gown and a gold lame bolero jacket might become a trendy clutch. While George watches over the prodigies' productivity, Jorge takes the fashionably challenged candidate on a shopping trip to secure a few classic pieces that no wardrobe should be without. After a lot of hard work and fabric on the cutting room floor, George reveals the prodigies' new designs to an astonished audience. The old wardrobe is completely transformed with fresh, stylish and wearable pieces. The intervention is complete when Jorge combines the salvaged clothes, newly bought classic items and the revamped pieces into a "look book" that shows the student how to mix, match to make the most of her new wardrobe!
