There’s been no shortage of fresh trends, designers and even Fashion Month curveballs in 2016, but a new group has been shaking things up: blogger-designers. Whether they’re partnering with big brands, collaborating on capsules or launching their own collections, these fashion mavens (most of them are far more than just bloggers at this point) are creating products for their legions of followers, and retailers are snapping them up. Here, a recap of some of our favorites from the blogosphere this year.
