Fashionista.com to Host Garance Dore in NYC

I've kept my eyes peeled for Fashionista's next event since I attended their How to Make it in Fashion conference last fall.

On April 27, Garance Doré—blogger, illustrator, photographer and author—will be Fashionista's guest speaker for their upcoming NYC meet-up.

Doré is a part of the "first wave" of successful fashion bloggers to truly run with blogs. An established style icon and digital media maven, Doré continues to bring glamour, charm and humor to loyal her audience with the help of a full-time staff and guest contributors.

At the Fashionista meet-up, Doré will discuss how to develop an authentic voice and how to build a following of engaged readers, as well as her own career journey. Seating is very limited, so be sure to grab your tickets here ASAP!

First wave bloggers like Doré have shaped the fashion industry and the greater digital landscape as we know it today—a global platform that values beautiful content, audience engagement and authenticity. Other bloggers including Scott Schuman of The Sartorialist (2005), Leandra Medine of Man Repeller (2009) and Nicole Warne of Gary Pepper Girl (2009) also fall into this category.
