The search for the nation’s most sought-after fashion influencer resumes with season 3 of the fully-shoppable, digital fashion reality show, Myntra Fashion Superstar, streaming from  November 11 on Myntra Studio via Myntra App, and Voot. Viewers can watch the reality fashion show in an eight-part series as this year’s show promises to be bigger and better, showcasing glimpses of real-life instances of the contestants, set to engage with audiences across the country with the thought-provoking theme, “I Wear My Story”.

Premiering on Myntra Studio via the Myntra app and Voot, the show will have a panel of judges featuring influencers Kusha Kapila, Aashna Shroff, Ankush Bahuguna, and Santu Misra, led by fashion designer, Manish Malhotra.

MFS-3 will commence with 12 contestants who will battle it out for the title of India’s next big fashion influencer, through 8, 45-minute episodes. The contest has been designed to progressively eliminate contestants as the episodes advance until the grand finale where the judges handpick their favorite influencer to be crowned with the title of Myntra Fashion Superstar. This season, the influencers will also engage the audience through interactive live vlogs, as opposed to only traditional static video diaries with sheer creativity at the forefront. In return, the jury gives ‘likes’ to score the influencers that determine their future in the show.    

In a press statement, Myntra said, “The theme #MFSIWearMyStory is about revealing the actual person behind the persona. In this digital world, most people hide behind camera tricks and forced transitions and often show the world unauthentic social media versions of themselves. ‘I wear my story’ is about staying true to one’s self and expressing one’s own journey in his or her own style, unfiltered and authentic, through fashion. It is about celebrating one’s self for who the person is, with all their inherent shortcomings, struggles, and glories, articulated through innovative fashion and beauty content. The key ingredients to becoming an influencer with the potential to impact mindsets and drive conversations that matter within their community are what the judges are looking for this season.”

The 12 chosen contestants for MFS-3 are: 22-year-old Cipia Artul, a full-time content creator from Delhi, having executed uber-stylish campaigns for fashion and lifestyle brands including Urbanic and Boat; 25-year-old Shrawan Chhetri, an alumnus of NIFT, a budding fashion entrepreneur based in Delhi with his own fashion brand called, ‘Crucial’; 22-year-old Tanya Gupta, a Literature graduate who is a freelance content creator from Kanpur and an advocate of inclusivity and mental health; 28-year0old Samidha Singh, a finance graduate from Mumbai, who is now a full time fashion content creator; 29-year-old Queen Andro from Darjeeling, who describes fashion as glamorous, androgynous and 23-year-old Yukti Chugh, from Indore, who kickestarted her fashion influencer journey last year and has already garnered a substantial following; 23-year-old Jinal Jain, a NIFT graduate from Mumbai who won the prestigious Runway Award and has a quirky sense of style; 19-year-old Priyam Yonzon, a style-first creator from Darjeeling, currently finishing fifth semester of English honors; 27-year-old Devansh Kamboj, who is based in Delhi, has an easy going ‘personality’ with funky style and frequently collaborate with his influencer wife, Maggi; 26-year old Ziean, a civil engineer from Itanagar, fashion & beauty blogger and avid dancer; 27-year-old Adlina Angelo, an upcoming social media figure from Mumbai, who loves all things fashion, travel and wellness and Chandigarh-based Ankit Vaid, a visual merchandiser for seven years with a distinct and sharp sense of style.
