Bengaluru, Oct 29 (SocialNews.XYZ) Myntras search for Indias next big fashion influencer heats up again. The second season of the one-of-its-kind digital fashion reality show, Myntra Fashion Superstar @MTV powered by H&M (the title sponsor), is now live on Myntra Studio, the fashion major's own content destination on the app.
The theme of this year's show and also the official hashtag is #MFSChangeTheConversation which aims at 'fashion for good' and inclusivity. The theme focuses on how influencers have the power to use social media to bring about a positive change and challenge social norms.
The competition gets more fierce this time as several established fashion, lifestyle, and beauty influencers join the roster of contestants. With the average follower base of around 40K plus, these competing influencers will not only battle it out based on their inherent talent but also on the basis of experience. They will leverage their common passions, i.e., fashion and social media, in a fierce battle, to be crowned India's next Fashion Superstar and land an exclusive 1-year influencer contract with Myntra worth Rupees 1 million. The winner will also be offered an exclusive 1-year contract with MTV to be their Social Influencer in Fashion.
The contestants will showcase their fashion acumen, ability to create meaningful content, and proficiency in using social media, to make a positive impact on their audiences, as they receive constant inspiration and guidance from a judging panel of fashion and social media visionaries. The panel boasts of icons Sushmita Sen, Manish Malhotra and Mallika Dua and will be hosted by the super-talented MTV VJ Gaelyn Mendonca.
Each 45-minute episode will have a fashion-related challenge and elimination to encourage these competing influencers to use fashion to enhance their uniqueness and amplify their voice. The theme of every episode seeks to tackle and drive conversations around important social issues such as bullying, and breaking stereotypes positively through fashion and social media.
Speaking about Myntra Fashion Superstar @ MTV going live, Achint Setia, VP, Marketing, Myntra, said, "Myntra Fashion Superstar @ MTV is a show like none other in terms of its focus on opening minds and bringing conversations relevant to the youth on a large platform while being thoroughly entertaining to watch.

Commenting on the occasion, Mallika Dua, one of the judges of Myntra Fashion Superstar @ MTV , said "Judging Myntra Fashion Superstar @ MTV was a great experience for me because I got to play a part in mentoring and shaping the next generation of influencers. It is truly heartening to see that an unstructured industry that I have been a part of since it probably started in India, is taking centre stage. Through Myntra Fashion Superstar, I hope people will realise the kind of skill, know-how and relentless hard work it takes to become an influencer because genuine influencers are made by the honing of craft."
