Every once in a while my instagram algo will give me great inspo for like 3 days then it devolves back into shitposting
Other than that here and Pinterest are all I use for fashion
I use as many types of social media as I can
edgyalbert, abouammz, a guy called ethan m wong, know him?. derek. this discord. throwingfits. idk
i dont even have a tiktok account, i just visit their profile from time to time
luv social media
love social media
except for people whose personal brand is dressing for your height
I dont think i have an influencer id put weeg’s stamp of approval on
I like maisonhomme and myarmaniarchive for styling references
i don't have any other social media
fuck you im only 5’5” im always dressing for my height
you aren't telling people to wear vertical stripes unprompted though
I’m not telling people to wear anything tbh
But I agree social media is fine and even good except when people use it to promote terrible fashion advice or shill for shit brands
i'll accept the simp role by shouting out charlie @divineeprovidence but otherwise gothamgalleria, maisonhomme (forgot how many underscores there are whoops), watchingnewyork, elliotduprey, garmsville, mistermort for good vibes, and yuthanan to look at pretty things i can't afford
antonioskamy is good for runway pics
Oh yuthanan is a good shoutout
_nthea and _donnyq are both great as well
Some of these are new to me, good shout
Jason Jules / Garmsville still the ivy 🐐
Also for another brand CD giiiiiyong has great fits
Oh god
:linkConcern:
Do y'all have any plugs for smaller creators? Maybe we can do two categories? <10k followers, and <100k?
Oh shit yeah
most of the accounts already listed are in these categories
Shuhei Nishiguchi another CD with good fits
Sub 10k
Me:gigachad:
I do not post fits
It also doesn't matter how many followers an account has if the content is good
it doesnt! but just looking for more accounts that might be less known at the moment!
Ik most YT Fashion is trash advice but Coyote Sharp seems pretty decent
The plugs so far have been fire, but always down to see some dude in his basement with 4 followers dropping secret fire
I look at it for inspo but my engagement is..
I like following fashion photographers on ig for inspo
I am thinking of posting on ig more but I've been hilariously reticent to have any sort of public persona, so we'll see
Leslie Zhang does cool shoots

Following models is a good way to gather inspo too because they wear all sorts of brands and work with different stylists so I can get varied styles to draw from
I thought Margaret Zhang was a neat editor for vogue china

Outside of discord I don't use social media to discuss fashion because ig is a terrible place to say something that's not a soundbite or zinger
Random people from college still like my fits whenever I post them which is funny if a little encouraging
But I like ig better for consumption rather than creation
Bc I hate photography
I use social media only to see fits and new brands I dont know about
ever since I've stumbled across a reels social media growth tutorial with the instruction of telling AI to rewrite whatever you want to say to a 3rd grade level I stopped watching any short form media
i use social media to doomscroll
never had tiktok as well
I started an outfit ig with the hope of one day getting free clothes and after two years it's finally gonna pay off
My tiktok popped off way harder than IG, just in time for it to shit the bed
A year and a half to hit 1k on ig and two weeks of daily posting to do it on tiktok :xdcrying:
I create fashion content on social media, recently switched to english and kind of alienated my audience lol. Have to kind of restructure on what I want to make now and come back in the right way.
My favorite creators are:
Chez amelie
Elliot Duprey
Sleepyboyngirl (really good japanese tiktokers)
Antwon (ofcourse)
oh and percish
