The Best Dressed Black Creatives On Instagram This Week 3/16

Our online fashion favorites from 3/10-3/16
The Best Dressed Black Creatives On Instagram This Week 3/16
By Raquel Iman · Updated March 22, 2026

It’s heating up ever so slightly outside, and the sun is finally setting past 7 PM in New York City. There is an excitement in the air that seems to encourage risk-taking, and creatives are seizing the moment by playing with proportions and leaning into eccentric accessorizing. Keep scrolling to see some of our favorite looks! 

Fringe was all the rage this week, and fashion stylist Maryann Santos led the charge, celebrating her birthday in a sleeveless knit dress trimmed with two-toned fringe. The bodice came in a vibrant blue, and the skirt was black with yellow stripes boasting a cheeky porthole cutout on the upper thigh. For accessories, Santos leaned unconventional, wearing a necklace composed of several polka-dotted black bows and circular crystal-encrusted sunglasses. Meanwhile, Chanelle Natalie took an edgier route, opting for leather fringe and a body-hugging snake print mini dress. A leather waist belt, strappy heels, and minimal jewelry sealed the deal. 

Co-ords are often simple but effective shortcuts to looking stylish on the fly, but the matching sets seen on the timeline this week were anything but basic. Fashion mogul B wore a pinstripe blazer in light brown with a corresponding bubble skirt. Sandra Vainqueur went for a brown pants set with zippered sides and asymmetrical shoulders secured by a brooch. 

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.
