The blogger, model, and businesswoman, Chiara Ferragni, is from Italy. Through her blog, "The Blonde Salad," she has worked as an influencer with several top fashion and beauty companies, such as Pantene and Tod's. She is also well-known for her namesake shoe brand, "Chiara Ferragni Collection." She began blogging in her early 20s, and within a few years, "New York" magazine dubbed her "one of the greatest breakthrough street-style stars of the year." Her blog attracted a lot of attention over time, and she was awarded multiple "blogger of the year" titles. In September 2017, she came in first place on Forbes' list of the most influential people in fashion.
Her blog and shoe company were turned into a Harvard Business School case study. She also made history by being the first fashion blogger to appear on a Vogue magazine cover. Her achievement earned her a spot on the covers of more than 50 other fashion publications. She has worked with renowned companies throughout the years, including Chanel, Ermenegildo Zegna, Louis Vuitton, and Christian Dior. On Instagram, she has accumulated millions of followers under the name "Chiaraferragni."
She was born on May 7, 1987, in Cremona, Italy, to writer Marina Di Guardo, of Sicilian descent, and dentist Marco Ferragni. Valentina and Francesca, her two younger sisters, are both social media stars, and Francesca shares her father's profession as a dentist. The details of her early life and schooling are not widely known. She became interested in fashion and photography from a young age thanks to the influence of her mother.
She got engaged to Federico Leonardo Lucia, better known by his stage name "Fedez," an Italian rapper and singer, on May 6, 2017, at his concert in Verona, Italy, which was broadcast live on the Italian radio and TV channel RTL 102.5. In California's Los Angeles, the pair reside. Leone, a son who was born on March 19, 2018, was a blessing for them. Chiara's puppy, Matilda, was born on July 21, 2010, and since making her Instagram debut in November 2012 with the post "I loathe winter time," she has been a social media star. Over 270 million people have already followed Matilda on Instagram.
Chiara started writing for her blog, The Blonde Salad, in October 2009. She was studying law at Bocconi University in Milan at the time. The site, as its name implies, includes posts with a variety of interests, such as cuisine, travel, and beauty. The Blonde Salad, on the other hand, evolved into more of a fashion blog as a result of Chiara's eventual climb to fame and her subsequent success in establishing her mark on the fashion industry.
In March 2011, "New York" magazine referred to her as "one of the greatest breakout street-style sensations of the year." By the end of 2011, her blog had successfully attracted over a million unique visitors and was receiving over 12 million monthly visits. She was featured as the "Blogger Of The Moment" in the December 2011 issue of the American magazine "Teen Vogue." She also participated in the 64th "Cannes Film Festival" red carpet walk.
She created an eBook in the Italian language in December 2013. The book, which offers style and fashion advice, bears the same name as her blog, "The Blonde Salad." In the same month, she also worked on a spring 2014 9-shoe line with American fashion designer and entrepreneur Steve Madden. Along with Pif and Alessandro Betti, she made an appearance as one of the presenters of the "TRL Awards" on June 21, 2014. The event took place in Florence, Italy's "Parco delle Cascine" (Cascine Park). She appeared as a guest judge on Season 13 of the American reality television program "Project Runway" in August of that year. Additionally, she appeared as a guest on the Italian variety show "Chiambretti Night."
In January 2016, she was selected to serve as Pantene's new global ambassador. She was chosen by Amazon Fashion as the spokesperson for their "Spring 2016" campaign and brand ambassador for Europe. On July 26, 2017, in Milan, she opened the first Chiara Ferragni Collection boutique. The fourth iteration of "Intimissimi on Ice," with costumes created by Chiara, was presented by the Italian apparel company "intimissimi" in the Verona Arena in October of that year. In May 2018, "Footwear News" named her as one of "the most important people in the fashion business."
She was included among the most influential people in fashion, according to a 2017 Forbes survey. She became "one of the biggest breakout street-style stars of the year" two years after starting her blog. In her early 20s, she began her career in blogging. Currently, Chiara Ferragni has 154k YouTube subscribers, 643k Twitter followers, 24 million Instagram followers, and 133k Facebook fans.
