NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Launching today, Bluefly (NASDAQ Capital market: BFLY) will unveil the latest edition of their wildly popular Closet Confessions series on Bluefly.com/Closets. Actress Kerry Washington treats viewers to a private tour of her wardrobe on the set of ABC's hit TV series, Scandal, where she plays the show's lead, Olivia Pope.
"We are thrilled to have Kerry be a part of our long-running Closet Confession series," notes Bluefly's CEO, Joseph Park. "As fashion-forward, strong and independent women, our customers can really relate to her and [Olivia]." In the Confession, Kerry highlights the difference between her personal style and Olivia Pope's style, noting, "the clothes help me to be Olivia in a big way."
Kerry picks out clothing and accessories to show viewers what helps her walk in Olivia's shoes. She describes Olivia's crisp yet feminine business suits as her "armor". Olivia's shoes of choice are stylish platform pumps, and her watches of choice are elegant and simple Movado timepieces. Kerry also shares with our viewers that "I always like to keep one item from every character I play". Of Scandal, she says "I have my eye on everything!"
In addition to Kerry's Closet Confession, Scandal takes over Belle & Clive (www.BelleandClive.com) to curate an exclusive boutique inspired by the show. The boutique is as fearless and sophisticated as Olivia Pope and the other Scandal characters - with chic tailored suits, soft sweaters, subtle gilded jewelry, and killer pumps taking center stage. Fast-clicking customers who shop the Scandal-inspired boutique will receive a complimentary copy of ABC's "Scandal: The Complete First Season" on DVD while supplies last.
