Clea Shearer and Joanna Teplin, the two indefatigable women behind the personal organizing business Home Edit, are obsessed with “zones.” A closet is not just a place to hold clothes, shoes, and ephemera—it is a tightly organized and strategic landscape of zones, a beautifully-merchandised, color-coded, retail-adjacent space where everything has its place.
While I understand that the famous people are likely the draw, there’s nothing particularly interesting or exciting about watching famous people of means pay these two women and their assistants—an army oforganize their designer goods inside a capacious walk-in closet. In the second episode, the women tackle the closet of celebrity stylist Rachel Zoe, who has already benefitted from their services in the past, but has since gone astray.

help, but if you want to know how to fix your disaster of a garage, watching an episode of the show will not yield any actual tips or tricks. The women of the Home Edit treat organizing a messy space like one might merchandise an American Eagle, optimizing the space for prettiness first, and actual ease of use, second. This eliminates the true drama of any show of this nature, which is the process itself.
The services the Home Edit provides are admittedly both expensive and largely unnecessary; having a system of perfectly-labeled acrylic bins to hold all of life’s general crap is not a must-have. But by including the civilian families, many of whom found the Home Edit through their very popular Instagram feed or through theirwith famous-adjacent people like Eva Chen, the women are attempting to normalize their services, presenting them as a necessity for living a happy and well-organized life.
I could barely get through the first episode. So squeely, loud and annoying. Also they treat their employees (the people who actually do the work) like shit. Unwatchable.
