Though social media was created primarily as a social outlet, today it represents endless possibilities and opportunities.
In today’s world, people can create an entire career from their platform on social media and most times, they are careers that ultimately aren’t even related to social platforms. Influencer Michelle Madonna, has turned her massive following of 261K on Instagram into an impressive career, to say the least.
The New York-based digital creator is known for landing some mega collaborations with brands like Delta Airlines, UGG, Lexus USA, Zappos and ABC’s the Bachelor. Specialising in stylised fashion content, Madonna’s content covers everything from style advice to outfit ideas and inspiration, and realistic try-on’s. As a Latina, she aims to provide insight and inclusivity as well as diversity for her followers, giving tips and advice on how to dress according to your body type.
And while social media has been a catalyst for her career, it wasn’t influencing that got her recognised. At the advent of the Instagram generation, Madonna had established her own accessories brand called Flower Children Only that quickly became popular among celebrities and models like Gigi Hadid, Paris Hilton, Alessandra Ambrosio and more. Widely known for her flower crowns that were popularised by music festivals like Coachella, Flower Children Only served as the platform that would launch Madonna’s social media career.
And though she’s been a full-time influencer/content creator since 2019, Madonna is already looking ahead at what other career endeavours she can conquer. Most recently, she’s been seen on a few of HBO’s most popular shows, including Succession and And Just Like That as well as Showtime’s Billions, where she’s been gaining acting experience. With a newfound love and passion for acting, she now looks forward to challenging herself with even greater roles as the opportunities come up.
While social media is something she’s long loved and respected, for now, Madonna continues sharing her fashion sense and lifestyle content on Instagram. Thanks to the platform that launched just 11 years ago, Michelle Madonna has managed to create a prolific career that only continues to grow. To keep up with Michelle Madonna, follow her on Instagram.
