Meet the most influential Italian fashion bloggers on Instagram


It’s fact that Italian women know a thing or two about fashion, especially Italian fashion bloggers.

For most Italian fashion bloggers, they know more about Italian fashion brands more than they know about their partners or even their mothers. Italian women just can’t help it. It’s in their blood. They eat Prada and Gucci for breakfast, Balenciaga for lunch, D&G for dinner and top it off with Aquazzura for dessert. Delicious, right?

So why do Italian women love fashion so much?

Simple. Fashion makes her feel empowered and elevates her confidence to unbelievable new heights. Of course most of that comes from the inside, but hey, a sky high Louboutin heel and tailored trousers definitely help you keep your head up high when you’re walking into your business meeting.
