Length: 30 minutes
Genre: Dramedy
When Washingtonian socialite Olivia Wyatt receives tragic news that decimates not only her reputation but also her bank account, she and her teenage daughter Gwynnie must relocate to New York City to rebuild their lives… from scratch.
Her resourcefulness lands her a job as a saleswoman at an exclusive department store, Harper James, where she struggles to “make her numbers” and create a better life for herself and her daughter. Her goal? To climb the ladder to the personal shopping salon on the fifth floor, where she can service a very select, and very wealthy, clientele.
But to be a success, she must out-maneuver her manipulative, back-stabbing co-workers–the Bitches of Fifth Avenue.
The Fifth Floor is a heartfelt and hilarious peek into the secretive world of the ultra-rich and ultra-fashionable and is based on Champagne at Seven and Cutthroat Couture by former retail executive and fashionista Toni Glickman.
