Chiara Ferragni always makes people discuss. In any corner of the globe you say this name, you know who you are talking about. 18.4 million people follow her on instagram. In 2016 Forbes included her in the list of the 30 most influential XNUMX-somethings in the world. It ranks sixth in the ranking of the highest paid "influencers" in the world, the only non-American. He earns several million euros a year. In the world of fashion, her blue eyes marked the transition from the analogue era to the digital world. His successes are undisputed.
Yet there are whole crowds of Italians who take it out on her. Stylists, operators in the sector of fashion, journalists, haters of all kinds spend their days throwing hatred towards Ferragni. There are hordes of girls who express contempt at his name alone. And in many salons his name is banned like the plague.
The explanation is actually very simple
The first factor is that this is the era of black and white. There is no room for warm temperatures. In the age of social media, what divides and creates opposing factions works. Ferragni succeeded right away by embodying an archetype loved by some, hated by others. But there is a second factor that explains why Ferragni has so many haters. And it is envy. Envy is the national demon, so difficult to defeat. Whoever manages to do something, especially if he comes from the province like Chiara, ends up being overwhelmed by the envy of all those who wanted to do but didn't. Italy is full of experts in everything sitting at the bar. Or nail yourself to facebook.

That you may like it or not but it is the present. It has also collected a very important legacy in the world of fashion, Where the Italians continue to be protagonists. A tribute therefore to Chiara Ferragni, who was able to be a successful Italian in the complex contemporary world.
