Since it’s start in 2007, Independent Fashion Bloggers, the brainchild of Jennine Jacobs, has risen to be an authoritative community hub for fashion bloggers and the brands seeking to connect with them. Whether its interviewing The Sartorialist, penning the Fair Compensation Manifesto, or hosting the biannual IFB Conference, any brand seeking to engage with fashion bloggers should be paying attention to IFB’s ongoing evolution.
