House of DVF Season 1, Episode 8 airs tonight on E!

Season 1 comes to a close with everything the hopefuls have been working for getting put to the test at DVF’s exclusive New York Fashion Week event, during which Diane makes her decision about the new Brand Ambassador.

Diane von Furstenberg and her eponymous fashion brand have long been symbols of confidence, grace and fearlessness. Now, as Diane mentors a new generation of hard-working young women ready to take their careers to the next level at DVF, E! is there to capture every triumphant and pressure-filled moment in a new genre of television. Only the most intelligent and talented young women are considered for the glamorous and highly coveted brand ambassador position with one of fashion’s most prestigious brands. Diane herself has handpicked the eight young women, who are determined to impress her as they are tasked with working in different areas of Diane’s empire, based in the dazzling DVF offices in Manhattan’s Meatpacking District. From planning a press lunch to working at the DVF Spring 2015 show during Fashion Week, the candidates are expected to execute every duty perfectly, although things don’t always go as planned.

House of DVF Season 1, Episode 8 airs Dec. 21 at 10 pm EDT on E!

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
