One reveals how the y2k revival ‘signals authenticity’ in our modern era, a further focuses on status as it relates to style and another is something even less typical of an average fashion creator: a reading list.
Phin, whose social-media handle is @thatadult, is one of a new generation of voices giving fashion criticism a software update. There’s also, to name a few, @thekimbino, an Instagram account run by Kim Russell that looks at catwalk nostalgia through an archival lens; Odunayo Ojo’s Fashion Roadman on YouTube, which offers fashion history and analysis to newcomers and insiders alike; @oldloserinbrooklyn on TikTok, a trend-forecaster account run by Mandy Lee; and Alexandra Hildreth’s commentary under the account @ guyfieri.superfan, also on TikTok.
Moving on from the age-old notion of the fashion critic as a front-row insider reviewing catwalk shows for a small audience of other fashion experts, this new cohort is more likely to give their thoughts from their bedrooms – but with significant reach. Ojo’s YouTube channel has nearly 100k subscribers. The Kimbino has 158k followers on Instagram, including Julia Fox, Precious Lee and Jourdan Dunn. Lee’s @oldloserinbrooklyn, meanwhile, has an audience of 430k on TikTok and such influence that a video about indie sleaze she posted in October 2021 sparked last year’s much-discussed revival.
