If you’re looking for stylish, fashion-forward content creators, look no further than our lineup of Black fashion influencers below. These 25 talented women have incredible personal style, closets full of luxury items, hard-to-find alternatives, recycled vintage items and handmade pieces made from their own designs. It has everything. Not to mention the Instagram grid, which is pretty much the same goal as Instagram. .
As a fashion lover, I often use my Instagram feed like a Pinterest board. Yes, I follow friends and brands that I love, but the majority of my following are fashionistas who fill my feed with the style inspiration I crave. I love taking screenshots and bookmarking things to recreate later, and I’m always on the lookout for cool new accounts to get hooked on.
In 2020, there are very few “influencers” like that. These women are content creators, bloggers, vloggers, models, entrepreneurs, designers, activists, and more. Sure, their IG posts are beautiful, but there’s more to these accounts than just good looks and avid fashion. Whether they’re creating the next must-shop fashion collection or advocating for diversity and inclusion in fashion, they have an advantage when it comes to who to follow.
If you want to freshen up your Instagram feed with some new faces, check out our 25 favorites below. Shop Kelly Brown’s ‘And I Get Dressed’ merchandise, stream Gisele Smith’s ‘I’m Screaming’ podcast, binge-watch Karen Blanchard’s YouTube channel, and check out OOTD Shelsea It won’t be long before you’re bookmarking all of Christy Joseph’s posts.
