It’s a new job, new dilemmas and a new city for Whitney Port in MTV’s reality series “The City” premiering Monday, December 29 at 10p.m. ET/9p.m. Central. In the first two episodes airing back-to-back, Whitney leaves the “The Hills” and the familiarity of California behind to strike out on her own for the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to work at global design house Diane Von Furstenberg in New York City. With a best friend from her past and a guy she’s head-over-heels for, Whitney will balance a new circle of friends as she navigates the fashion industry’s upper echelon. She is ready to put everything on the line for the chance at a new life but chasing dreams in the Big Apple won’t be easy. In a city full of people with their own agendas, who can Whitney trust?

In the series premiere, Whitney arrives in New York City during fashion week just in time to start her career at DVF as an image coordinator. As she embarks on a new job and a new romance, she’s invited to an “uptown” dinner party by her coworker only to find out that her “downtown” boyfriend wants no part of that world. In the second episode airing at 10:30pm, Whitney’s world is turned upside-down when a boy from her past warns her that her new boyfriend may be cheating, and while she doubts his motives she wonders if it’s the truth.
