(Redirected from Fashion house)
'''Fashion House''' was an
American telenovela airing at 9 p.m. ET/8 p.m. CT Monday through Saturday on
MyNetworkTV stations. The series premiered on
September 5,
2006 and concluded on
December 5,
2006. It was produced by
Twentieth Television with directors David Hogan, Alex Hennech, Jim Slocum and Jeremy Stanford.
''Fashion House'' focused on greed, lust and ambition surrounding a violent corporate takeover of the business's hottest company. It starred
Bo Derek as the ruthless head of the business and
Morgan Fairchild as her long-time arch-rival. The show was known more for the leads' hair-pulling, name-calling, and vase-throwing than for its romance, passion and drama.

DVD.
