Our generation is mad about Instagram, and who do we have to thank? The CEO and co-founder, Kevin Systrom, of course. Recently, he sat down to reveal his surprising ties with the fashion industry, and his favourite fashion-focused Instagram accounts. Over the years, Systrom has attended some of the hottest fashion events, and kept an open eye for the trendy, creative minds that utilise his app. Here are his top 3 fashion accounts:
1. @paridust – With a past in architecture and interior design, Pari Ehsan has cultivated a fresh and unique outlook to display her favourite fashion pieces. Pairing quirky designs against striking pieces of artwork, she combines the two different creative forces together to create gorgeous images. Talk about eye candy!
2. @isabelitavirtual – With tasteful surrealism and a natural eye, Spanish copywriter Isabel Martínez has taken over Instagram by storm. Taking all her fantastical photos with only her iPhone camera, she’s created stunning images with her imaginative use of the human form, using it to draw attention to beautiful couture pieces.
3. @thedressedchest – This charming account is run by Californian Dad, Rainier John, who uses the running theme whereby only his chest is in the frame of each photo. In every look, he matches perfectly coordinated ties or bowties, suitjackets, button-downs and so on, without ever looking monotonous. Definitely a perfect account for guys to get style ideas!
