Hot off the press! There’s a hot new reality TV show in town by The CW that is fashionably called, Stylista. Incredibly exciting! As you know Nina Garcia has left Elle magazine for Marie Claire (*yikes*) - and now, look what she’s missing. Brought to you by Tyra Banks, Stylista brings to life the real ‘Devil Wears Prada’ in the Elleoffice in which eleven fashion enthusiasts battle each other out to win the prized position as assistant to Anne Slowey, Fashion News Editor ofElle.
So why go through the pain and drama? The winner gets a full-time editorial position at Elle, a paid lease on a fabulous apartment in Manhattan (gosh, I want that!) and clothing allowance from H&M - all for one year valued at $100,000. Can’t wait for this show - it sounds crazy already!
Here’s a first look at Stylista. Tell me what you think.
