90's House of Style with Cindy Crawford!

A couple of weeks ago I’m having brunch with two dear friends. These are my industry friends one being a huge celebrity make up artist and the other a top leading celebrity publicist in West Los Angeles.  We were talking about style and I brought up MTV’s House of Style.  For the 90’s it was way ahead of it’s time producing relevant youthful content to the masses and it stared the current it girl Cindy Crawford.
Be Your Own House of Style

 Started thinking how MTV was the equivalent of YouTube in it’s hay day providing content.  Teens and young adults would watch and discuss what was on MTV.  Never before was there real focused driven content to inform youth.  From their “Rock the Vote” campaign to launching a social experiment called the “Real World” MTV was able to mobilize the youth and a physical call to action at MTV rally’s in American malls.  They also had playful music and fashion driven shows hosted by reporters under 30 years old.Here is a taste of what MTV looked like in the 90’s.  House of Style was a regular weekly program on MTV which was rare on this mostly music video driven only program.
