Trendabl app: join the Olsens and Brad Goreski on fashion's latest social network
Following on from the fashion industry's love affair with free photo-sharing application Instagram comes the launch of Trendabl, an interactive iPhone app dedicated to style that has already caught the eye of designers including Diane Von Furstenberg and Michael Kors.
Launching March 26, the photo-sharing platform allows users to take a picture or upload an image from their library and post it to the Trendabl network with appropriate tags. They can then choose to post it to Tumblr, Facebook and/or Twitter.
With echoes of these social networks, there is a re-post option and users can "like" things and make comments. There is also a function to showcase the most popular images.
Like Twitter and Instagram, users can follow friends, celebrities and brands. Contributing designers already include Diane Von Furstenberg, Michael Kors and Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen, while celebrity stylist Brad Goreski is on board.
"I'm incredibly excited to be a part of Trendabl. Fashion should be fun, visual, and of course, colorful!," said Goreski in a release.
The launch of Trendabl comes amid the rise of fashion apps tapping into the desire for style sharing, with website and mobile app Fashism allowing users to receive community feedback on their outfits and Pose letting users upload their outfit successes and gain inspiration from fellow fashionistas.
The Trendabl app is free and currently available through iTunes.
