In June 1992, MTV’s House of Style did a short feature on the Beastie Boys' innate sense of fashion. Mike D and Adrock supplied the commentary and mixed in between their words were shots of the X-Large store’s inventory. Edits of footage from this episode of House of Style picturing Mike D and Adrock filmed against the New York City skyline were later reused for MTV's "Like We Care" segments.

MTV heats up the summer with "HOUSE OF STYLE" summer edition to debut June 17 at 10:00PM (ET/PT)

NEW YORK--Tattoos, a behind-the-scenes look at Cindy Crawford during a shoot for her new Pepsi campaign, a profile on Olympic swimmer Dara Torres, and a look at "anti-chic" fashion sense with the Beastie Boys, are among the topics covered in the summer edition of MTV's series on fashion and trends around the world.

"HOUSE OF STYLE" summer edition will debut Wednesday, June 17 from 10:00PM - 10:30PM (ET/PT). Show host Cindy Crawford will bring viewers this year's sizzling summer edition on-location from beautiful Central Park in New York City. Following are some show highlights:

We're accustomed to seeing supermodels project loads of sex appeal, but we don't often get the chance to hear their professional opinions on "what's sexy?" "HOUSE OF STYLE" interviews three of today's top fashion models, Kara Young, Tasha and Veronica Webb, to get their unique insight on what works for them, and what doesn't.

Tattoos -- both faux and real -- are being touted as "the ear-piercing of the '90s." "HOUSE OF STYLE" talks to some celebrities who have them, including Riki Rachtman (heavy metal impresario and host of "Headbangers Ball"), supermodel Christie Turlington, LA Guns' Kelly Nichols, and top fashion designer Anna Sui.

In another feature, the one and only Beastie Boys talk about their very special form of "anti-chic" fashion sense. Beasties Rule One: Wear whatever you want. Beasties Rule Two: There are no rules.

"HOUSE OF STYLE" summer edition will also present a very special behind-the-scenes look at show host Cindy Crawford during a recent shoot for her new national ad campaign for Pepsi, "Gotta Have It." Other segments featured in the summer edition include a profile on Olympic swim team captain Dara Torres; highlights from "Don't Bungle The Jungle," a star-studded fashion benefit to help save the rain forest; a look at summer fashions made out of terry cloth; and a report on fun summer gadgets you've got to have, from weighted jumping ropes to musical paddle drums.

The "HOUSE OF STYLE" summer edition will repeat Friday, June 19 at 7:00 p.m., Saturday, June 20 at 2:30 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. and Sunday, June 21 at 5:30 p.m. (ET/PT). The "HOUSE OF STYLE" summer edition is produced by Cathe Neukum.
