MCN Staff -- Multichannel News, 10/12/2009 11:30:28 AM

Ovation TV will open up a number of celebrities' closets, so to speak, as part of special kicking off its fashion design programming stunt next month.
Featuring interviews with a number of style icons, Anatomy of a Closet will bow on Nov. 8 at 8 p.m. (ET), kicking off Ovation's week-long tribute to the art of design, titled "Everything is Art."
Anatomy of a Closet features interviews with actress, model, fashion designer Mena Suvari; U2 drummer Larry Mullen, Jr.; J Brands co-founder and creative director Susien Crippen; Andrew Bolton, curator of the Costume Insight at the Metropolitan Museum of Art; fourth season Project Ruway winner Christian Siriano; Jason Wu, designer of Michelle Obama's inaugural gown; and Mary Quant, creator of the mini skirt.

"Anatomy of a Closet takes a look inside the American closet and rummages around to find the top 10 items that just about all of us have, and might even take for granted," said Ovation senior vice president of programming Kris Slava in a statement. "The little black dress, sunglasses, blue jeans, white t-shirt, trench coat...we look at the origin, history and impact these wardobe icons have had on contemporary culture in a countdown format that's both informative and a lot of fun."
