We're living in a Barbie world.

HGTV announced that it is bringing the iconic doll's dreamhouse to life in the new competition series "Barbie Dreamhouse Challenge." Hosted by model Ashley Graham, eight teams filled with famous faces will work to transform a Southern California home into a real-life doll house. At the end, one Barbie fan will win a sleepover staycation in the newly-renovated dreamhouse.

The four-part show, which premieres July 16, will include Mika and Brian Kleinschmidt, Jasmine Roth, Antonia Lofaso, Anthony Elle Williams, Michel Smith Boyd, Kristina Crestin and Jonathan Knight. Alison Victoria, Ty Pennington, James Bender, Christina Hall, Evan Thomas, Keith Bynum, Mike Jackson and Egypt Sherrod will also be a part of the event.
