Just this year alone, the model gained a whopping 16 million followers, leading the pack in terms of popular fashion-related accounts. What other industry favorites had people eager to get a glimpse into their lives? Read on to find out whose numbers soared in 2016.

Before giving birth to her baby boy, Candice was all about sharing her maternity outfits — and we couldn't get enough of them! Now that Anacan is here? She's definitely a fashion-forward mom.
