Despite the rise of TikTok for Business, Instagram still reigns supreme when it comes to social media for fashion. With gorgeous visuals and easy-to-shop feeds, it’s no wonder our Insta addictions continue to grow (hands up who’s scared to check their screentime ✋)
As of October 2020, 33% percent of the global Instagram audience were aged between 25 and 34 years, making the platform particularly attractive for sales-hungry marketers. Sure, TikTok might be a fun way to waste a half hour, but we’re still all dreaming of nailing our aesthetics and emulating our fave inst-fluencers.
We’ve got to admit, we’re purists, and the updates to the platform this past quarter have led to a confusing user experience (we’re looking at you, Reels), but there’s no denying the platform’s continued success, with the figures speaking for themselves – ad spend is 23% higher on Instagram than Facebook, due to sheer rise of Stories.
If, like us, you’re a sucker for a cute AF feed to scroll through, take a look through our list of five Instagram fashion brands who have risen to the top in 2020. Apologies to your bank balances but hey, Black Friday discounts are coming, just saying 👀
