Thailand has a strong e-commerce and online-blogging culture, with the latest fashion and beauty trends shared and discussed on social media platforms and purchased online.
WearYouWant CEO and Co-Founder Martin Toft Sørensen explains why fashion and beauty bloggers are industry influencers who deserve to be acknowledged. "A big part of what we do here at WearYouWant is in knowing which fashion is in trend, showcasing clothes and accessories our customers want and offering great advice on what looks good. Fashion bloggers and influencers have a big impact too, by highlighting different styles and brands.
With their knowledge of what fashion is out there and their own personal perspectives, Thai fashion bloggers and social media influencers breathe fire into the fashion industry; sparking interest for brands amongst their online fans with their commitment and passion for fashion. In the same way, beauty bloggers are trendsetters, redefining what beauty is today and introducing consumers to new products and beauty tips from cosmetics to skin creams and treatments."
