Italian-born Chiara Ferragni was raised in Cremona and is well-known for her work as a model, businesswoman, blogger, and fashion designer. She was born on May 7, 1987. She has made a lasting impression on the fashion business with her style and spirit of entrepreneurship.

Early Life and Career

Being the oldest of three girls and coming from a family with ties to the fashion industry, Ferragni’s destiny appeared to be tied to her artistic abilities while growing up in Cremona. She entered the modeling business at the age of sixteen, signing with the Milan-based Beatrice model agency. She finally quit modeling to pursue more ambitious life objectives, although her ambitions went beyond the catwalk.

Ferragni started a new journey in October 2009 when she and her then-boyfriend Riccardo Pozzoli launched the fashion blog “The Blonde Salad.” This platform served as a vital outlet for Ferragni to share her love of lifestyle, beauty, and fashion.

Ferragni’s blog gained substantial recognition, propelling her into the spotlight. While she was still a Bocconi University law student, she was featured as the “Blogger of the Moment” in a December 2011 Teen Vogue story. Despite not completing her university degree as of 2016, Ferragni’s impact in the fashion world continued to rise.

She took on a variety of projects as an entrepreneur, one of which was working with Steve Madden to create a shoe line in December 2013. By 2014, the shoes from the Chiara Ferragni Collection alone brought in an astounding $8 million in sales for her firm.

In April 2015, Chiara Ferragni created history by being the first fashion blogger to appear on the cover of Vogue España. In January 2015, the Chiara Ferragni Collection, which she paired with her blog, was featured as a case study at Harvard Business School, illustrating the relationship between fashion, blogging, and business.

She expanded her influence beyond fashion, appearing as a guest judge on Project Runway in August 2014 and being chosen to design costumes for the 4th edition of Intimissimi on Ice in 2017.

As of July 2017, Ferragni had an astounding 10 million Instagram followers. She used her platform for activism in addition to fashion and lifestyle. She campaigned against far-right political parties in Italy, showcasing the influential role of social media in contemporary society.
