In each episode of DESAFIO FASHIONISTA, four contestants will take part and will need to win different tests. During each one of the challenges they will have to put together the perfect look to wear on three distinct, special occasions: a beach wedding, a blind date and a job interview, among others. The judges' panel -- made up of Mexican model, actress and blogger Adriana Abascal, who is also the series' host; Mexican presenter Olivia Peralta; Colombian fashion editor Juan Carlos Giraldo; and a special guest panelist on each new episode -- will evaluate the personal taste, elegance, creativity and, above all else, the keen sense of style of each of the contestants.

"The Latina woman, by nature, likes to take care of herself, and is interested in looking good and in knowing the latest fashion trends. DESAFIO FASHIONISTA is a series with a fun and innovative format that was developed based on her likes and needs," commented Bilai Joa Silar, VP of Content, Discovery Familia.

At the end of each episode, the two final participants go up against one another and the lucky winner will take home a complete wardrobe of clothes, shoes and accessories.
