Soap Opera To Donate Show Wardrobe To Charity
The longest running soap opera, "Guiding Light" comes to an end this fall but the show's wardrobe will have a second life. Crain's is reporting that the production will be donating the show's wardrobe to Bottomless Closet, a New York charity that provides appropriate clothing for job interviews for those who have trouble affording the right outfits. The charity helps women who are often single heads of households forced to choose between the necessity of food and shelter for themselves and buying the clothing necessary to make a good impression. Clients are referred to Bottomless Closet from other agencies and receive two complete outfits before a scheduled job interview. After they have found a job they can return for three more outfits. The women served by Bottomless Closet will be able to have their choice of the huge collection of clothes, shoes, handbags, jewelry and accessories amassed over the soap opera's 72-year run and dress like leading ladies but hopefully with better luck than the oft-imperiled heroines on the show.
