After more than 20 years, the iconic Fashion Police will end on November 27 with a tribute to its co-creator and long-running host, Joan Rivers.
Hosted by Melissa Rivers, Fashion Police: The Farewell will reveal never-before-seen footage – including a previously unaired 80s-themed episode featuring Joan Rivers.
Fashion Police was helmed by the legendary comedian since its inception in 1995, covering every major award show and fashion event with Joan’s signature sharp wit.
After Joan died at 81 in September 2014 — a week after she stopped breathing during throat surgery — the franchise continued with the blessing of her daughter and executive producer on the show since its launch, Melissa, 49, who became a co-host in 2015.
“Thank you to E! for having the vision to see the potential of Fashion Police which changed both the entertainment and fashion industries,” Melissa said in a statement. “I am truly proud to be part of this legacy.”
In addition to Melissa, the current panel also includes Giuliana Rancic, Brad Goreski, NeNe Leakes and Margaret Cho. The upcoming special will look back at the show’s most memorable moments, from the many celebrity guests to all the outrageous fashion debates over the years.
“For the past 20 years, Fashion Police has been part of the pop culture zeitgeist and it’s definitely been a fun ride for the hosts as well as the viewers. From celebrity appearances and never-before-seen moments with the late, great Joan Rivers, the finale is going to be a show fans won’t want to miss as we all celebrate the great run the show has had. I can’t wait!” Rancic, 43, said in a statement.
