When we think ‘supermodels’, we think glittering ramp walks, designer glamourous outfits, life-size hoardings that ooze charisma, impeccable magazine covers and electric confidence. But what goes behind all the glitz and glam is years of struggle and sleepless nights, bound together with a gossamer thread of hard work and an unbeatable zeal of being “unapologetically themselves”. Also, according to MTV Youth Study 2021, 75% of the people believe that “The best dressed people are the ones who are comfortable in their own clothes” and 78% of them agree that “they needn’t look beautiful always.” Redefining fashion that's bold, unique with the right amount of oomph, India’s No 1 Youth Entertainment Brand, MTV brings back the iconic and most awaited edition of Livon MTV Supermodel of the Year Season 2 Co-Powered by Olay Retinol, Vanesa Body Deo, Magic Moments Music Studio& Fashion Partner FNGR with a bold new theme – ‘Unapologetically You’.
