Fashion Reverie looks back at MTV’s House of Style. MTV premiered House of Style on January 1, 1989, as a response to America’s growing fascination with the lives of supermodels. House of Style focused on fashion, the modeling industry, supermodels’ lifestyle, and such controversial issues at the time as eating disorders.
