Series overview






Plot


Stella and Vicky are two women of Greek diaspora who meet in Melbourne. Stella is a short and overweight woman to whom men do not pay attention, while Vicky is tall, thin and beautiful, attracting men. Stella was born and raised in Melbourne with her friend, Toula, who have an atelier. Vicky was born in Greece and came to Australia for business. They both fall in love with Nikos, a scion of a wealthy Greek family of businessmen, who works in Australia. Stella watches him from afar, never having spoken to him, while Vicky meets him in a bar and they become a couple. At the same time, Stella flirts online with Grigoris (Gregory), a young man from Athens.
Nikos and Vicky get engaged. The two women travel to Greece together: Stella on vacation and Vicky to meet Nikos's family; the latter has the idea of the two changing identities. As such, Stella should be presented to Nikos's family as "Vicky" and their future bride and Vicky should be presented as "Stella" to Gregory. Stella does not accept, but Vicky finds a way to do so by changing the labels on the suitcases and leaving her alone at the airport. Leaving the arrivals, he meets Nikos's family who are waiting for Vicky and, not knowing what to do, tells them that it is her.
Stella stays with Vicky's in-laws who host her in their villa. Although, they are surprised that Nikos has found a woman so different from the ones he usually finds, Stella wins the hearts of everyone except Aneta, while she falls in love with Sotiris, Nikos's little brother. While Stella lives as Vicky with Nikos's family, Vicky meets Gregory as Stella, whom he falls in love with. But things get even more complicated when Nikos returns from Australia...
