New MTV Reality Series: House of Jazmin
MTV will be airing a new reality TV series tomorrow that will feature Jazmin Whitley–the youngest fashion designer ever to be showcased in New York fashion week.
The point of the show is to give viewers a first-hand insight about what it actually takes to make it into the fashion designing industry.
The show, entitled House of Jazmin, will follow Jazmin’s life as she learns to cope with being only 20 and handling the duties of her own clothing line, “Li Car.” She describes her line as “sophisticated, chic, and versatile.”
Jazmin was a girl who turned her dreams into a reality. She’s accomplished more in just a few years than what thousands of aspiring designers hope to accomplish in their entire life.
At age 17, Jazmin showcased her own fashion show at her high school and later began creating pieces for socialites. Soon, her talent was recognized and she showcased her 36-piece line at an LA fashion week show in 2006. According to her official website, Jazmin showcased her spring summer ‘07 line at the age of 19 and continued to tour between LA and NY. She’s been featured in countless magazines and attracted top socialites including Christina Ricci and Mandy Jiroux.
Now she has her own reality show.
I’m excited to see her try and deal with such a high-profile career. This has potential to be really useful for those of you who are heavily interested in the fashion industry. The show will also star Jazmin’s mother who is also her manager, who, of course, has a hard time separating her two roles. I think this show has potential as long as it strays away from focusing on her life as a 20-year-old and more towards her actual talent and acquisition.
The show will air at 10:30 PM Tuesdays on MTV.
