North Texans Tina Craig, Suzanne Droese, and Lynsey Eaton have collaborated on a new agency to represent fashion influencers.

Estate Five will focus on representing a wide range of talent, something Craig feels the larger agencies have lacked thus far, according to Business of Fashion.

“We’re not out to have a roster of girls who all look the same and are doing the same thing. We’re looking for people who have a different point of view,” Droese told the fashion industry publication.

All three partners have slightly different backgrounds and experience in this realm. Craig created popular fashion blog Bag Snob; Droese of Droese Public Relations has had experience engaging with influencers; and Eaton has worked as an attorney in the fashion industry as well as co-creating fashion and lifestyle blog Tomboy KC.

Fashion bloggers and influencers have become increasingly important to the fashion industry, a fact Estate Five’s creators are very aware of. The Cut by New York Magazine credited Craig with using Instagram to help one designer sell $20,000 worth of handbags in less than a day.

Among the 14 names already signed by Estate Five is Diet Prada; Ashley Robertson, fashion blogger and rewardStyle producer; Katherine Barnes of Carrie Bradshaw Lied; and Matthew Zorpas of The Gentleman Blogger, according to BoF.
