Did you all hear the news from last week? That MTV’s House of Style is returning?!! While I poured over my mother’s fashion magazines and look books as a kid, another big source of inspiration and favorite show to watch was House of Style.
The Spice Girls (well, Sporty, Baby, and Posh “my name’s Victoria”) go to an American mall; Airdate 2/4/97:

Back to school shopping with Liv Tyler; Airdate 9/16/92:
Sorry Angelina Jolie, Cindy Crawford did the leg exposure first… also, RIP Gianni Versace, so tragic as I think it was the first celebrity death I can remember my parents being upset about (and then Diana barely a month later); Airdate 3/6/91:
The plan is that the show will be short clips here and there, and if they are popular than an entire time-slot episode will be worked out. Who do you think should host the new House of Style? Check out MTV’s story about House of Style returning.

I really really love this post.Thank you!
Wow – it ran from 1989 – 2005 – my Mom, sister (who is 16 yrs older than me), and I watched it. Def not just for teenagers! Designers… everyone watched it.
It was amazing, right?
I wonder if it will be someone like Alexa Chung, or a more serious model type like Cindy Crawford was when the show first came on air…?
You are welcome!
