Plot

Her three daughters, Susana (Gabriela Toscano), Virginia (Griselda Siciliani) and Malena (Celeste Cid), all single, will verify that the disappearance of their tremendous mother does not imply any release. Their step sister, María Eugenia, the villain of the story, sold the house of their parents upon their mother's death. As if the failure of their lives, especially with men, was marked by some kind of curse.

Production

Para vestir santos features several musical numbers. All the lead actresses had previous experience with the genre.
