Social media and fashion are intertwined, and since clothing is heavily visual, the best platform to share outfits is Instagram. There are plenty of hubs for fashion news and inspiration, like fashionfuckery and pauseshots. But my favorite way to curate my wardrobe is through following tons of influencers and adapting their individual styles into my own. I decided to share some of my favorite people in fashion. Each of these profiles has such unique style and each distinguishes itself from the mainstream. It was difficult to pinpoint just a few, but here are four of my favorite menswear influencers on Instagram:

The List

1. Sangiev (@sangiev)

A menswear icon, Sangiev is my biggest fashion inspiration. I don’t agree with all his outfits, but he definitely knows what he’s doing. His wardrobe is a mix of high-end designer, vintage, and the occasional streetwear piece. His style is so flexible that he can’t be boxed into one category. I’m drawn to him because I can mix and match all sorts of items when emulating his style.

The man knows how to accessorize. His usage of silver is the best I’ve ever seen, and he flexes chains and rings so effortlessly. Even though he wears a ton of jewelry, it never becomes distracting, and it always adds the perfect touch to his outfits. And his shit is expensive–I’m talking hundreds per ring, and he covers each finger. Sangiev also has a YouTube channel where he puts out quality fashion videos with informed opinions. I highly recommend checking him out to get a wider scope of the designer fashion world.

2. Greg Ntore (@gregntore)

I just recently discovered this guy, and he has some of the most interesting silhouettes on Instagram. He’s a stylist for Ssense (which sounds like an awesome job), and you can tell he’s a man of taste. Most of his stuff is designer, and he incorporates each piece so well. He utilizes a lot of oversized shapes with an emphasis on the way everything sits. The man looks cozy.

Ntore inspires me to expand my wardrobe and experiment a lot more. I think his outfits are a result of a true understanding of fashion. He uses simple pieces and knows how to put them together for an amazing shape, emphasizing his minimalist style. He doesn’t wear anything too flashy (other than the price tag), but he makes himself stand out.

3. Elias Riadi (@eliasriadi)

Elias is a member of PAQ, a fashion show on YouTube, where he and three other guys complete various challenges like customizing clothes and styling other people. They each have their own style, and Elias’s can be described in one word: Flair. His outfits are often colorful with a good mix of hype and vintage. He is very influenced by 90’s and 00’s R&B, along with the Grime scene in England, using baggy and sporty elements mixed with modern streetwear. He has a flair for the dramatic, and I really like Elias because his style suits his personality. Check out his show on YouTube, there’s a lot of inspirational content on the channel for people trying to develop their personal style.
