Be a Fashionista. Culture, celebrity, commerce, and careers through a digital fashion and beauty lens.
Be a talented designer, enthusiastic promoter, or an engaged follower of the latest and most exciting fashion trends!
Stay ahead of ever-evolving fashion trends, consistently engage with prominent fashion media outlets, closely follow influential figures in the industry, attend significant events, and experiment boldly with your personal style. It's equally important to analyze market trends and gather valuable industry insights. Observing a fashion descriptor beginning to rise in popularity is often a clear indication that something is on the verge of becoming fashionable. Fashion will never be stagnant or dull. Instead, trends will swiftly come and go, continually reshaping the dynamic landscape of the fashion world.
Fashion Weeks in major fashion capitals such as London, Paris, Milan, and New York City serve as a grand platform that introduces the world to the exciting clothes and accessories that will be making waves in style for the upcoming season. As such, thoroughly studying the runways and the latest collections can provide valuable insights and clues into the upcoming trends, allowing you to shop for these anticipated styles before they officially hit the retail shelves. Additionally, you can experience the thrill of attending Fashion Week in person. Depending on your level of popularity and influence as a fashion blogger, you may even receive exclusive invitations to attend shows at no cost. Alternatively, if you'd prefer to take matters into your own hands, you can purchase a pass and enjoy the experience of attending on your own.
If none of those options pan out as anticipated, you might want to consider trying to watch the runways online for the latest fashion showcases. Alternatively, you can also peruse extensive galleries of models posing elegantly at the end of the catwalk. You definitely don't have to be there in person to successfully notice the evolving trends and distinct patterns present in all the shows. Another place to find the next big thing is on the pages of a fashion magazine. Editorial photoshoots often reveal upcoming trends. Plus, magazine interviews with designers will present their take on what's next. The head of a fashion house probably has a good idea, and they'll have a hand in guiding the trends, too. You likely know the fashion magazines you should subscribe to as an industry professional. Among the top titles are Vogue, Elle and Harper's Bazaar.
From the renowned fashion weeks to the prestigious pages of Vogue, celebrity red carpets, glittering awards shows in Los Angeles, and illustrious film festivals like Cannes and Venice, global film premieres are where you will witness what is truly trending at the highest echelons of fashion. Instagram provides you with the unique opportunity to follow just about every celebrity's day-to-day life, offering a glimpse into their personal style choices. By keeping an eye on the most fashion-forward celebrities, you will have a clearer idea of what's to come in terms of clothing trends. Many famous individuals receive fashion items as gifts from big-name brands, thus what they choose to wear will undoubtedly be at the forefront of the industry. Therefore, it is essential to monitor their stories and posts closely to see the exciting and stylish wardrobe pieces they're showcasing. Of course, you can also gain similar insights from striking red carpet and candid paparazzi photos, too. This allows you to have a bit of everything in your fashion repertoire — including both trendy streetwear and elegant formalwear.
