Best fashion Instagrams: 2019

By Poppy Cory-Wright on 15/1/2019

In our digital age of virtual consumption, the pool of style influencers has become so vast it can be difficult to navigate.
But amongst a slew of dull-eyed, carbon-copied, health fad-promoting Instagrammers are a crowd of accessible, inspiring women who bring vitality and vigour to the world of digital influencers.
From Scandi tastemakers and Lower East Side authorities to the West Londoners pioneering in inclusive style, these are the fashion Instagrams to follow this year.

About: As if some kind of antidote to the monochromatic, minimalist style of her Scandi contemporaries, blogger, travel writer, creative consultant, and photographer Hanna Steffanson is one of the most colourful forces on the Copenhagen fashion scene.

She brings together pieces from Scandi brands like Ganni and Stine Goya with smooth expertise, as well as showcasing how to make high street buys sparkle.

Best for: A schooling in colour and ice-cool Scandi style.

About: Ghanem is a vision of ageless style, who encourages older women to stay visible in an industry that often overlooks them. Her look is elegant but label-heavy (think everything from Acne to Celine), filled with fun and often topped off with a huge pair of sunglasses.

Best for: Anti-ageism, exquisite wardrobe voyeurism, and a peek into the life of Canada's best-dressed woman.
