4 Online Fashion Communities for Women You Should Join
According to Forbes, 70–80% of consumer purchasing decisions are made by women. With women being at the forefront of spending power, it is inevitable that there are lots of online communities that focus on women’s interests. These communities create safe spaces for women to interact with each other easily and conveniently, and share tips and deals.
Fashion has been a staple when it comes to women’s interests and there are many communities that are geared towards this. Below are some different fashion communities and why you should join them.
Pinterest is an image-sharing-based social media platform that has made it perfect for building female fashion communities. On this site, users can create different boards for their fashion inspiration. They can pin different images to boards, view boards made by other members, and upload their own images.
This has made Pinterest one of the best online communities to keep up with current fashion trends or to find women who are into the same fashion niches. And because the platform has millions of users, you will easily be able to find people who share the same fashion sense as you. You can even start your own female-centric fashion community if you are passionate about a particular style or type of clothing.
SoleSavy
Though it is a dominantly male community, many women have turned into sneakerheads and have started to become a louder voice in online communities. Today women want high quality sneakers that they can pair with anything. In our post on ‘The Uncomplicated Perfect Leather Sneaker From Italic’ we covered how leather sneakers are now considered high end fashion. We also noted that the company even has their own community.
Yet, arguably the biggest sneaker community out there at the moment is SoleSavy. This platform is a dedicated sneaker community that puts an emphasis on sustainable and quality shoes over mass production. Recently they have been putting an emphasis on female sneakers, with Anna Bediones, director of women’s strategy at SoleSavy, saying “We have the resources to create the community we’ve been dreaming of — a place that is safe, supportive, and inclusive for women specifically — so we’re going to build it.” Compared to other sneaker communities, SoleSavy does not only create an emphasis on quality and connection, but they are also creating a safe women-only community so members feel safe to share what they want to.
The Fashion Spot
The Fashion Spot is a style and beauty community. They release articles and blog posts about current fashion trends, and they also have forums on numerous topics around the fashion industry.
Forums have been great and simple ways people can share their thoughts and communicate with each other. Through the forums on The Fashion Spot, members can talk about different trends, contribute their opinions, and find different fashion niches.
The site hosts forum posts on almost every fashion topic you could think of which makes it easy for users to find what they are looking for. Aside from this, the website also promotes diversity in fashion, which is a topic that has become increasingly important.
Purse Forum
The fashion industry would be incomplete if the topic of bags did not come up. Bags have been an essential aspect of the industry since modern fashion began. Purse Blog focuses on the best bags for women, creating a community that is different to most fashion sites.
The site hosts forums for different designers, styles of bags, and general questions towards the community. It is a good place for beginners to learn more about the trade and for more experienced people to share their knowledge.
These online communities are creating spaces for women to be able to talk to other women without the fear of being bullied for their interests. Not only is this progress welcome, but it is also one that should now be the standard. For more articles on fashion do check out our own community at Go French Yourself.
