"10 Must-Follow Twitter Accounts for Fashion\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1. @DerekBlasberg\n\nIf you\u2019re at all interested in the fashion world, Derek Blasberg should be on your radar. Blasberg is currently the editor at large of Harper\u2019s Bazaar, as well as the senior editor at V Magazine and VMAN, but his contributions have appeared in virtually every fashion publication \u2013 from Vogue to Style.com. Follow Blasberg for quippy style coverage general amusement.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n2. @CathyHorynNYT\n\n\nCathy Horyn is the fashion critic of The New York Times. Although she hasn\u2019t been tweet-happy lately, you should be following her come September \u2014 Horyn live-tweets from nearly every runway show worth mentioning. \nHer candor and expertise make her a great resource for anyone who follows Fashion Week from the comfort of their swively chair. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n3. @alexa_chung\n\nBritish model-turned-TV personality Alexa Chung is a mainstay on the fashion scene. Her personal style is a constant source of inspiration for designers and tastemakers alike. Chung\u2019s Twitter feed has a stream of consciousness vibe, so expect tweets about everything from fringe to fax machines.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n4. @ManRepeller\n\nMan Repeller adds a refreshing dose of whimsy to the blogosphere. Leandra Medine takes outfits men may initially find appealing (short dresses, etc.) and creates looks unfathomable to the opposite sex by way of extreme layering and accessorizing, a process which she describes in great detail. Her tweets are equally hilarious. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n5. @Sartorialist\n\n\nScott Schuman, a.k.a. The Sartoriliast, is a renowned street style photographer who spends most of his time trolling the streets of New York City on his bicycle in search of fashionable urbanites. \nSchuman\u2019s Twitter account provides links to his visually stimulating blog posts, as well as the occasional twitpic. If photography is your thing, Schuman is your guy.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n6. @TheLSD\n\n\nLSD is short for Lauren Santo Domingo, socialite and founder of Moda Operandi. LSD is well-known in NYC \u201Chigh society,\u201D as she regularly contributes to Vogue, participates in charity events and knows how to rock an outfit. \nDomingo\u2019s tweets are sardonic but real \u2014 the woman knows what she\u2019s talking about.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n7. @fuggirls\n\nGo Fug Yourself is based on the idea that fugly is the new pretty. Founders/Fug Girls Heather and Jessica share the reins of both their blog and Twitter account, and dish out entertaining commentary on celebrity gossip, red carpet choices and pretty much everything else \u2014right now they\u2019re geeking out over the Olympics.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n8. @cocorocha\n\nCanadian fashion model Coco Rocha is known in the fashion industry for both her looks and charming personality. She\u2019s also social media savvy, which is always a plus. Rocha shares some excellent model insight via Twitter, including references to Zoolander and botched Photoshop jobs.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n9. @bryanboy\n\nIn the over-saturated world of fashion bloggers, originality is key \u2014 which is why we love Bryanboy. His writing and dressing style are decidedly camp, making for unique blog posts and humerous tweets. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10. @TimGunn\n\n\nYou know Tim Gunn as the brutally honest yet loveable mentor on Project Runway, but you may not know that he was a faculty member at Parsons The New School For Design for more than two decades. \nGunn brings his candid, charming demeanor to his Twitter account, providing thoughtful assessments of all that is style. We learned via his account that he just styled a pair of Barbies that are now available for purchase. Does it really get better than that?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe fashion industry isn't all business \u2014 it's a lifestyle. A wide variety of individuals have built their lives and careers around fashion. If designers are the pants and jacket, then models, photographers, bloggers and tastemakers are the accessories, without which the outfit would fail to succeed. \nIf this concept is over your head, let's simplify it \u2014 we're talking 140 characters simple. Some of the most important players on the style scene have found a home on Twitter, where they share their daily musings with the world. \nSEE ALSO: Top 20 Fashion Accounts to Follow on Pinterest\nWe've rounded up 10 of the most follow-worthy, fashion-minded members of the Twittersphere.
