I got my start dressing sets on The Bachelor in 2011 and never looked back. Fifteen years later I art-direct the worlds behind one of television’s most-watched franchises, built to look expensive, feel real, and survive a brutal shooting schedule.
About Carly →Common questions
Who decorated the sets on The Bachelor?
Carly Panice worked in the art department on The Bachelor starting in 2011, dressing sets and later art-directing across the franchise, including The Bachelorette, Bachelor Pad, and Bachelor in Paradise.
What does a set decorator do on a reality TV show?
A set decorator sources, builds, and dresses every environment the camera sees, then keeps it camera-ready through a demanding shooting schedule. On unscripted television that means designing spaces that feel real and expensive, standing up multiple sets fast, and holding continuity across long days and many episodes.
