With London Fashion Week almost over, what better way to round up the week than some good ol’ data talk and a [nice visualization](http://www.prote.in/uploads/feed-posts/final%5Ffashion.jpg?ref=protein.xyz). We had a look into how new fashion trends are discovered and made some intriguing and perhaps surprising finds.

Blogs came out on top with 53% of our audience citing them as influencing their wardrobes, and street style second with 39%. Interestingly celebrity style was the least mentioned with only 8% of those asked saying they were source of inspiration. With this research the idea that a celebrity endorsement can influence a trend seems to be thrown into some dispute. It will be interesting to see how this pattern of the inspiring blogger changes in the next year.

Our first Protein Audience Survey is at the printers now getting prepped for the press. If you are interested in learning more click [here](https://protein.wufoo.com/forms/protein-audience-survey-2011/?ref=protein.xyz) and we will get in touch with more info.
