The Best Dressed Black Creatives On Instagram This Week 1/26

Our online fashion favorites from 1/20 - 1/26
The Best Dressed Black Creatives On Instagram This Week 1/26
By Raquel Iman · Updated January 26, 2026

This weekend, snow blanketed the northeast, and if your Sunday was anything like mine, you probably waited out the storm under a fluffy blanket, binge-watching your favorite Netflix series, and shamelessly feasting on your storm snacks. But a little bad weather didn’t prevent our listees from dressing well this week. Whether it’s gingham, bloomers, or cow print, creatives showcased originality and blurred the lines between practicality and play. 

Before New York became a winter wonderland, Ash Ford posed for a photo in the middle of Manhattan’s Meatpacking District wearing a fluffy shearling vest over a pale yellow long-sleeve, low-rise leather trousers, and pumps layered in fringe. A suede handbag tucked neatly underneath the arm, double-frame sunglasses, and silver jewelry completed the look. 

Gowns were all over the timeline this week, and each dress featured unique elements that proved that fashion and art go hand in hand. Digital creator Koko attended a wedding wearing a green maxi dress with swathes of fabric artfully draped across her body. London-based style connoisseur Sia celebrated her birthday in an angelic, floor-length dress complete with delicate pleating and sheer cutouts. 

Let’s be honest; Instagram can be the best place to find your next outfit. There is nothing wrong with grabbing a little inspiration from the Internet, and these creatives brought the best style this week.
