Forget Melrose Place, ‘s closet is the “place” to be.
During a Q&A at 90s Con in Daytona Beach, Fla., on Saturday, Sept. 14, the actress revealed that she kept “everything” from her wardrobe on the show. “Is that wrong?” she added with a laugh. “But [I took] everything, from shoes to the old jackets, the skirts.”
Adding that she kept much of her Spin City wardrobe, too, the actress said she also opened her closet doors for daughter , now 26, when she used to live at home. (Dad is Locklear’s ex-husband, Bon Jovi rocker .)
