ZINE’s Top 10 Fashion Influencers
The global apparel market is said to generate a staggering $1.34 trillion in sales each year. Regardless of the financial climate around the globe, it’s an industry that continues to grow year on year. Social media has a significant role to play in this. While in the past, fashion was led by publications like Vogue, social media has brought fashion closer to the average person through the influencers they follow.
According to Retail Gazette*, 45% of Instagram users in Britain say they follow fashion accounts to get inspiration for future purchases. This is great news for fashion brands – though given how advanced they are in the realms of influencer marketing; I’m guessing its nothing new!
However, with so many fashion influencers out there, how do you distinguish which ones are right for your brand?
With a rapidly growing database of over 200K influencers and an advanced search to help narrow my search, here are my top 10 fashion influencers on ZINE – chosen for their great engagement and unique style!

Orion Carloto

Why we love Orion: When it comes to Instagram profiles, the rule of thumb is – the higher the number of followers, the lower the average engagement. Orion has almost half a million followers, yet her average engagement is over 5% and she is continuing to amass even more followers. The LA based mega-babe has impeccable style, even managing to master the art of flat-lay in an incredibly authentic manner.
